Matthew 5

21 Ref `Ye heard that it was said to the ancients: Thou shalt not kill, and whoever may kill shall be in danger of the judgment;

22 Ref but I -- I say to you, that every one who is angry at his brother without cause, shall be in danger of the judgment, and whoever may say to his brother, Empty fellow! shall be in danger of the sanhedrim, and whoever may say, Rebel! shall be in danger of the gehenna of the fire.

23 Ref `If, therefore, thou mayest bring thy gift to the altar, and there mayest remember that thy brother hath anything against thee,

24 Ref leave there thy gift before the altar, and go -- first be reconciled to thy brother, and then having come bring thy gift.

25 Ref `Be agreeing with thy opponent quickly, while thou art in the way with him, that the opponent may not deliver thee to the judge, and the judge may deliver thee to the officer, and to prison thou mayest be cast,

26 Ref verily I say to thee, thou mayest not come forth thence till that thou mayest pay the last farthing.

27 Ref `Ye heard that it was said to the ancients: Thou shalt not commit adultery;

28 Ref but I -- I say to you, that every one who is looking on a woman to desire her, did already commit adultery with her in his heart.
