“You have heard that it was said, * ‘You shall not commit adultery;’* but I tell you that everyone who gazes at a woman to lust after her has committed adultery with her already in his heart. If your right eye causes you to stumble, pluck it out and throw it away from you. For it is more profitable for you that one of your members should perish, than for your whole body to be cast into Gehenna. If your right hand causes you to stumble, cut it off, and throw it away from you. For it is more profitable for you that one of your members should perish, than for your whole body to be cast into Gehenna.                “It was also said, ‘Whoever shall put away his wife, let him give her a writing of divorce,’* but I tell you that whoever puts away his wife, except for the cause of sexual immorality, makes her an adulteress; and whoever marries her when she is put away commits adultery.                “Again you have heard that it was said to them of old time, ‘You shall not make false vows, but shall perform to the Lord your vows,’ but I tell you, don’t swear at all: neither by heaven, for it is the throne of God; nor by the earth, for it is the footstool of his feet; nor by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the great King. Neither shall you swear by your head, for you can’t make one hair white or black. But let your ‘Yes’ be ‘Yes’ and your ‘No’ be ‘No.’ Whatever is more than these is of the evil one.                “You have heard that it was said, ‘An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth.’* But I tell you, don’t resist him who is evil; but whoever strikes you on your right cheek, turn to him the other also. If anyone sues you to take away your coat, let him have your cloak also. Whoever compels you to go one mile, go with him two. Give to him who asks you, and don’t turn away him who desires to borrow from you.                “You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall love your neighbor,* and hate your enemy.*’ But I tell you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who mistreat you and persecute you, that you may be children of your Father who is in heaven.

Quotations about mercy
   

Be not faint-hearted in your prayer;
And neglect not to give alms.

That your blessing may be perfected.

And for a dead man keep not back grace.

1 My son, deprive not the poor of his living,
And make not the needy eyes to wait long.

Neither provoke a man in his distress.

And defer not to give to him that is in need.
4 Reject not a suppliant in his affliction;
And turn not away your face from a poor man.

The Book of Tobit, 12:7


He who has pity on the poor lends to Yahweh; he will reward him.

Proverbs 19:17


Prayer is good with fasting and alms and righteousness. A little with righteousness is better than much with unrighteousness.

The Book of Tobit, 12:8-9


...for there is no man without fault, no man without burden, no man sufficient to himself nor wise enough. Hence we must support one another, console one another, mutually help, counsel, and advise.

Thomas À Kempis


...and according to your abundance give alms; and do not let your eye be envious, when you give alms.

The Book of Tobit 4:16


Give alms from your resources; and when you give alms, do not let your eye be envious, nor turn your face from any of the poor, and then the face of God shall not be turned away from you.

If you have abundance, give alms accordingly; if you have only a little, do not be afraid to give according to that little;

for you will store up a good treasure for yourself against the day of necessity,

because alms deliver from death and preserve from falling into darkness.

The Book of Tobit 4:7-10


For judgment is without mercy to him who has shown no mercy.

The Letter from James 2:13


Therefore, O king, let my counsel be acceptable to you, and break off your sins by righteousness, and your iniquities by showing mercy to the poor; if there may be a lengthening of your tranquility.

Daniel 4:27
