Luke 6:29 in context

The verses around it, from Luke 6.

25 Woe to you who are well fed now, for you will hunger. Woe to you who laugh now, for you will mourn and weep.

26 Woe to you when all men speak well of you, for their fathers treated the false prophets in the same way.

27 But to those of you who will listen, I say: Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you,

28 bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you.

29 If someone strikes you on one cheek, turn to him the other also. And if someone takes your cloak, do not withhold your tunic as well.

30 Give to everyone who asks you, and if anyone takes what is yours, do not demand it back.

31 Do to others as you would have them do to you.

32 If you love those who love you, what credit is that to you? Even sinners love those who love them.

33 If you do good to those who do good to you, what credit is that to you? Even sinners do the same.
