Concerning Retaliation
Matthew 5
Matthew5:38 You have heard that it was said: ‘An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth.’
Matthew5:39 But I say to you, do not resist one who is evil, but if anyone will have struck you on your right cheek, offer to him the other also.
Matthew5:40 And anyone who wishes to contend with you in judgment, and to take away your tunic, release to him your cloak also.
Matthew5:41 And whoever will have compelled you for one thousand steps, go with him even for two thousand steps.
Matthew5:42 Whoever asks of you, give to him. And if anyone would borrow from you, do not turn away from him.
