Matthew 5:38 in Context — Matthew 5
36 Nem por tua cabeça jurarás, pois nem sequer um cabelo podes tornar branco ou preto.
37 Mas seja vosso falar: “sim”, “sim”, “não”, “não”; porque o que disso passa procede do maligno.
38 Ouvistes o que foi dito: “Olho por olho, e dente por dente”.
39 Mas eu vos digo que não resistais a quem for mau; em vez disso, a qualquer um que te bater à tua face direita, apresenta-lhe também a outra.
40 E ao que quiser disputar contigo, e te tomar tua túnica, deixa-lhe também a capa.
