²⁹ If a man gives you a blow on one side of your face, then let the other side be turned to him; from him who takes away your coat, do not keep back your robe.

³⁴ For you had pity on those who were in prison, and had joy in the loss of your property, in the knowledge that you still had a better property and one which you would keep for ever.

²⁰ You put up with a man if he makes servants of you, if he makes profit out of you, if he makes you prisoners, if he puts himself in a high place, if he gives you blows on the face.

⁷ More than this, it is not to your credit to have causes at law with one another at all. Why not put up with wrong? why not undergo loss?

¹¹ Even to this hour we are without food, drink, and clothing, we are given blows and have no certain resting-place;

² And the high priest, Ananias, gave orders to those who were near him to give him a blow on the mouth.

²² When he said this, one of the police by his side gave him a blow with his open hand, saying, Do you give such an answer to the high priest?

⁶⁴ And, covering his eyes, they said to him, Are you prophet enough to say who gave you that blow?

⁶⁷ Then they put shame on him, and were cruel to him: and some gave him blows, saying,

³⁰ Let his face be turned to him who gives him blows; let him be full of shame.

⁶ I was offering my back to those who gave me blows, and my face to those who were pulling out my hair: I did not keep my face covered from marks of shame.

³⁹ But I say to you, Do not make use of force against an evil man; but to him who gives you a blow on the right side of your face let the left be turned.

⁴⁰ And if any man goes to law with you and takes away your coat, do not keep back your robe from him.

⁴¹ And whoever makes you go one mile, go with him two.

⁴² Give to him who comes with a request, and keep not your property from him who would for a time make use of it.

¹ And you, Beth-lehem Ephrathah, the least among the families of Judah, out of you one will come to me who is to be ruler in Israel; whose going out has been purposed from time past, from the eternal days.

²³ Then Zedekiah, the son of Chenaanah, came near and gave Micaiah a blow on the side of his face, saying, Where is the spirit of the Lord whose word is in you?

³⁰ And Mephibosheth said, Let him take it all, now that my lord the king has come back to his house in peace!
