← Matthew 5:45 [words of Jesus]	Matthew 5:46 (KJV) [words of Jesus]	Matthew 5:47 [words of Jesus] →
That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust.	For if ye love them which love you, what reward have ye? do not even the publicans the same?	And if ye salute your brethren only, what do ye more [than others]? do not even the publicans so?
