- "Nowª when the¹ centurionª sawª° what was done,ª° he glorifiedª° God,ª saying,ª° Certainlyª thisª wasª° a righteousª man.ª ... Andª allª the¹ peopleª that came togetherª° toª thatª sight,ª beholdingª° the things which were done,ª° smoteª° theirª breasts,ª and returned.ª°" {Lke 23:47-48} + "Butª I sayª° unto youª which² hear,ª° Loveª° yourª enemies,ª doª° goodª to them which² hateª° you,ª ...
