Matthew 5:38-40

The Voice

³⁸ You know that Hebrew Scripture sets this standard of justice and punishment: take an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.^{[a] 39} But I say this, don’t fight against the one who is working evil against you. If someone strikes you on the right cheek, you are to turn and offer him your left cheek. ⁴⁰ If someone connives to get your shirt, give him your jacket as well.
