Matthew 5:40
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
if someone wants to sue you and take your tunic, let him have your cloak as well;
In context
38 You have heard that it was said, ‘Eye for eye and tooth for tooth.’
39 But I tell you not to resist an evil person. If someone slaps you on your right cheek, turn to him the other also;
40 if someone wants to sue you and take your tunic, let him have your cloak as well;
41 and if someone forces you to go one mile, go with him two miles.
42 Give to the one who asks you, and do not turn away from the one who wants to borrow from you.
