Matthew 5:17-22

Moffatt(i) 17 Do not imagine I have come to destroy the Law or the prophets; I have not come to destroy but to fulfil. 18 (I tell you truly, till heaven and earth pass away not an iota, not a comma, will pass from the Law until it is all in force. 19 Therefore whoever relaxes a single one of these commands, were it even one of the least, and teaches men so, he will be ranked least in the Realm of heaven; but whoever obeys them and teaches them, he will be ranked great in the Realm of heaven.) 20 For I tell you, unless your goodness excels that of the scribes and Pharisees, you will never get into the Realm of heaven. 21 You have heard how the men of old were told, 'Murder not: whoever murders must come up for sentence, 22 whoever maligns his brother must come before the San hedrin, whoever curses his brother must go to the fire of Gehenna.' But I tell you, whoever is angry with his brother [without cause] will be sentenced by God.
