Matthew 5:21-28

Living_Oracles(i) 21 You have heard that it was said to the ancients, "You shall not commit murder; for whosoever commits murder shall be obnoxious to the judges." 22 But I say to you, whosoever is angry with his brother unjustly, shall be obnoxious to the judges; whosoever shall call him fool, shall be obnoxious to the council; but whosoever shall call him miscreant, shall be obnoxious to hell fire. 23 Therefore, if you bring your gift to the altar, and there recollect, that your brother has ground to complain of you; 24 leave there your gift before the altar: first go and procure reconciliation with your brother; then come, and offer your gift. 25 Compound speedily with your creditor, while you are on the road together; lest he deliver you to the judge; and the judge consign you to the officer, and you be thrown into prison. 26 Indeed, I say to you, you will not be released, until you have discharged the last farthing. 27 You have heard that it was said, "You shall not commit adultery." 28 But I say to you, whoever looks on another man's wife, in order to cherish impure desire, has already committed adultery with her in his heart.
