  and a tooth for a tooth.'          
39 But I say to you,        4  "Abstain from fleshly 
  Do not resist evil.         and bodily lusts.
  But <whoever slaps> you     29a  "To him who strikes you    If anyone gives you a slap
  on the right cheek,      on the cheek    on the right cheek, 
  turn to him     offer   turn to him  
  the other also."     the other also."   the other also."

as in the synoptic gospels.
