38“1You have heardG191 that it was saidG3004, ‘2EyeG3788 for eyeG3788, and toothG3599 for toothG3599.’

39But I sayG3004 to you, do not showG436 oppositionG436 against an evilG4190 person; but 3whoeverG3748 slapsG4474 you on your rightG1188 cheekG4600, turnG4762 the otherG243 toward him alsoG2532.

40And if anyone wantsG2309 to sueG2919 you and takeG2983 your 4tunicG5509, letG863 him haveG863 your 5cloakG2440 alsoG2532.
