Regarding others as yourself

Two traditions ask you to treat a neighbor, or another family's children, the way you treat your own. This only shows where two texts from different times and places happen to meet, not that the two traditions are the same.

  1. Judaism, Christianity

    Leviticus 19:18

    원수를 갚지 말며 동포를 원망하지 말며 이웃 사랑하기를 네 몸과 같이 하라 나는 여호와니라

    개역한글

    Thou shalt not avenge, nor bear any grudge against the children of thy people, but thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself: I am the LORD.

    KJV

    Thou shalt not take vengeance, nor bear any grudge against the children of thy people; but thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself: I am Jehovah.

    ASV

    You shall not take vengeance, nor bear any grudge against the children of your people; but you shall love your neighbor as yourself. I am Yahweh.

  2. Confucianism

    Mencius, King Hui of Liang I

    老吾老，以及人之老；幼吾幼，以及人之幼。天下可運於掌。

    한문 원문

    Explanation (not a translation) Honor your own elders and let that same care reach the elders of others, cherish your own children and let that reach the children of others, and the whole world can be moved as easily as something turned in the palm of your hand.
