Matthew 5:21-37 You have heard that it was said to the ancients: You shall not kill; and whoever shall kill, shall be liable to the sentence of the judges.

Anderson⁽ⁱ⁾ ²¹ You have heard that it was said to the ancients: You shall not kill; and whoever shall kill, shall be liable to the sentence of the judges. ²² But I say to you, Whoever is angry with his brother without a cause, shall be liable to the sentence of the judges. And whoever shall say to his brother, Worthless fellow, shall be liable to the sentence of the Sanhedrin. But who ever shall say, Impious wretch, shall be in danger of hell-fire. ²³ If, therefore, you bring your gift to the altar, and there remember that your brother has any thing against you, ²⁴ leave your gift there before the altar, and go, first be reconciled to your brother, and then come and offer your gift. ²⁵ Come to an agreement with your opponent at law quickly, while you are on the road with him, lest your opponent at law deliver you to the judge, and the judge deliver you to the officer, and you be thrown into prison. ²⁶ Verily, I say to you, You shall by no means come out thence, till you have paid the last farthing. ²⁷ You have heard that it was said: You shall not commit adultery. ²⁸ But I say to you, Whoever looks upon a woman to cherish desire for her, has already committed adultery with her in his heart. ²⁹ If, then, your right eye ensnare you, tear it out, and throw it from you; for it is profitable for you that one of your members should perish, and not that your whole body should be thrown into hell. ³⁰ And if your right hand ensnare you, cut it off, and throw it from you; for it is profit able for you that one of your members should perish, and not that your whole body should be thrown into hell. ³¹ It has been said: Whoever will put away his wife, let him give her a bill of divorce. ³² But I say to you, Whoever shall put away his wife, unless on account of lewdness, causes her to commit adultery: and whoever marries her that is divorced, commits adultery. ³³ Again, you have heard that it was said to the ancients: You shall not swear falsely, but shall pay to the Lord your vows. ³⁴ But I say to you, Swear not at all: neither by heaven, for it is the throne of God; ³⁵ nor by the earth, for it is his footstool; nor by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the great King: ³⁶ neither shall you swear by your head, for you can not make one hair white or black. ³⁷ But let your word be, Yes, yes; No, no; for whatever is more than these is of the Evil One.
