Matthew 5:21-37 Ye have heard, that it was said to them of old time, Thou shalt do no murder, and whosoever doth murder, shall be liable to the judgment.

Wesley⁽ⁱ⁾ ²¹ Ye have heard, that it was said to them of old time, Thou shalt do no murder, and whosoever doth murder, shall be liable to the judgment. ²² But I say unto you, That whosoever is angry with his brother, shall be liable to the judgment; and whosoever shall say to his brother, Raca, shall be liable to the council; but whosoever shall say, Thou fool, shall be liable to hell-fire. ²³ Therefore if thou bring thy gift to the altar, and there remember, that thy brother hath ought against thee, ²⁴ Leaving thy gift there before the altar, go; first be reconciled to thy brother, and then come and offer thy gift. ²⁵ Agree with thine adversary quickly, while 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. ²⁶ Verily I say unto thee, thou shalt in no wise come out thence, till thou hast paid the last farthing. ²⁷ Ye have heard, that it was said, Thou shalt not commit adultery. ²⁸ But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh upon a woman to lust after her, hath already committed adultery with her in his heart. ²⁹ But if thy right eye cause thee to offend, 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. ³⁰ And if thy right-hand cause thee to offend, 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. ³¹ It hath been said, Whosoever shall put away his wife, let him give her a writing of Divorce. ³² But I say unto you, whosoever shall put away his wife, save for the cause of whoredom, causeth her to commit adultery: and whosoever marrieth her that is put away, committeth adultery. ³³ Again, ye have heard, that it was said to them of old time, Thou shalt not forswear thyself, but shalt perform thine oaths unto the Lord. ³⁴ But I say unto you, Swear not at all, neither by heaven, for it is God's throne. ³⁵ Nor by the earth, for it is his footstool; neither by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the great King. ³⁶ Neither shalt thou swear by thy head; for thou canst not make one hair white or black. ³⁷ But let your conversation be yea, yea; nay, nay: for whatsoever is more than these, cometh of the evil one.
