Matthew:5:19-30

*
Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments ,
and shall teach men so ,
he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven :
but whosoever shall do and teach them ,
the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven .
*
For I say unto you ,
That except your righteousness shall exceed the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees ,
ye shall in no case enter into the kingdom of heaven .
*
Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time ,
Thou shalt not kill ;
and whosoever shall kill shall be in danger of the judgment :
*
But I say unto you ,
That whosoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment :
and whosoever shall say to his brother ,
Raca ,
shall be in danger of the council :
but whosoever shall say ,
Thou fool ,
shall be in danger of hell fire .
*
Therefore if thou bring thy gift to the altar ,
and there rememberest that thy brother hath ought against thee ;
*
Leave there thy gift before the altar ,
and go thy way ;
first be reconciled to thy brother ,
and then come and offer thy gift .
*
Agree with thine adversary quickly ,
whiles thou art in the way with him ;
lest at any time the adversary deliver thee to the judge ,
and the judge deliver thee to the officer ,
and thou be cast into prison .
*
Verily I say unto thee ,
Thou shalt by no means come out thence ,
till thou hast paid the uttermost farthing .
*
Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time ,
Thou shalt not commit adultery :
*
But I say unto you ,
That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart .
*
And if thy right eye offend thee ,
pluck it out ,
and cast it from thee :
for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish ,
and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell .
*
And if thy right hand offend thee ,
cut it off ,
and cast it from thee :
for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish ,
and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell .
