40:005:024 Leave there thy gift before the altar,
and go thy way; first
be
reconciled to thy brother, and then come and offer
thy
gift.
40:005:025 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.
40:005:026 Verily I say unto thee, Thou shalt by no
means come out
thence,
till thou hast paid the uttermost farthing.
40:005:027 Ye have heard that it was said by them
of old time, Thou shalt
not
commit adultery:
40:005:028 But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh
on a woman to lust
after
her hath committed adultery with her already in his
heart.
40:005:029 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.
40:005:030 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.
40:005:031 It hath been said, Whosoever shall put
away his wife, let him
give
her a writing of divorcement:
40:005:032 But I say unto you, That whosoever shall
put away his wife,
saving
for the cause of fornication, causeth her to commit
adultery:
and whosoever shall marry her that is divorced
committeth
adultery.
40:005:033 Again, ye have heard that it hath been
said by them of old
time,
Thou shalt not forswear thyself, but shalt perform
unto
the
Lord thine oaths:
40:005:034 But I say unto you, Swear not at all; neither
by heaven; for
it
is God’s throne:
40:005:035 Nor by the earth; for it is his footstool:
neither by
Jerusalem;
for it is the city of the great King.
40:005:036 Neither shalt thou swear by thy head, because
thou canst not
make
one hair white or black.
40:005:037 But let your communication be, Yea, yea;
Nay, nay: for
whatsoever
is more than these cometh of evil.
40:005:038 Ye have heard that it hath been said, An
eye for an eye, and a
tooth
for a tooth:
40:005:039 But I say unto you, That ye resist not
evil: but whosoever
shall
smite thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other
also.
40:005:040 And if any man will sue thee at the law,
and take away thy
coat,
let him have thy cloak also.
40:005:041 And whosoever shall compel thee to go a
mile, go with him
twain.
