20 For I saye vnto you: except your righteousnesse exceade the ryghteousnesse of the Scribes and Pharises, ye cannot entre into the kyngdome of heauen.
21 Ye haue heard that it was sayd vnto them of the olde tyme. Thou shalt no kyll: whosoeuer killeth, shalbe in daunger of iudgement.
22 But I say vnto you: that whosoeuer is angrye with hys brother (vnaduysedly) shalbe in daunger of iudgement. And whosoeuer saye vnto hys brother Racha, shalbe in daunger of a councell. But whosoeuer sayeth thou foole, shalbe in daunger of hell fyre.
23 Therfore, yf thou offrest thy gyfte at the aulter, and there remembrest that thy brother hath ought agaynst the:
24 leaue ther thyne offringe before the aulter & go thy waye fyrst, and be reconcyled to thy brother, and then come, and offre thy gyfte.
25 Agree with thyne aduersary quycklye whyles thou art in the waye with him, lest at any tyme the aduersary deliuer the to the iudge, and the iudge delyuer the to the mynister, and then thou be cast into preson.
26 Uerely, I say vnto the: thou shalt not come out thence, tyll thou haue payed the vtmost farthynge.
27 Ye haue herde that it was sayd vnto them of olde tyme. Thou shall no committ aduoutrye.
28 But I say vnto you that whosoeuer loketh on another mans wyfe to lust after her, hath commytted aduoutrye with her all ready in hys hert.
29 Yf thy ryght eye hynder the, plucke hym out, and cast hym from the. For better it is vnto the, that one of thy membres perysshe, then that thy whole body shuld be cast into hell.
30 And yf thy ryght hande hynder the, cutt hym of, and cast hym from the. For better it is vnto the, that one of thy membres perysshe, then that all thy body shulde be cast into hell.
31 It is sayd, whosoeuer putteth awaye his wyfe, lett hym geue her a letter of the deuorcement.
32 But I say vnto you: that whosoeuer doth put awaye his wyfe (excepte it be for fornycacyon) causeth her to breake matrymony. And whosoeuer maryeth her that is deuorsed commiteth aduoutrye.
33 Agayne, ye haue hearde how it was sayd to them of olde tyme: thou shalt not forsweare thy selfe, but shalt perfourme vnto the Lorde those thinges that thou swearest.
34 But I say vnto you: sweare not at all: nether by heauen, for it is Goddes seate,
35 nor by the earth, for it is his fote stole: nether by Ierusalem, for it is the cytie of the great king:
36 nether shalt thou sweare by thy heed, because thou canst not make one heare whyte or blacke.
37 But your communicacyon shalbe, ye, ye, nay, nay: For whatsoeuer is added more then these, it commeth of euyll.
38 Ye haue hearde that it is sayd: an eye for an eye: and a toth for a toth.
39 But I saye vnto you, that ye resist not euell. But whosoeuer geue the a blowe on the ryght cheke, turne to hym the other also.
40 And yf eny man wyll sue the at the law, and take awaye thy coate, let him haue thy clooke also.
41 And whosoeuer wyll compell the to go a myle, go with him twayne.
42 Geue to him that asketh the, and from hym that wolde borowe, turne not thou awaye.
43 Ye haue heard that it is sayde, thou shalt loue thyne neyghbour, and hate thyne enemy.
44 But I saye vnto you: loue your enemyes. Blesse them that curse you. Do good to them that hate you. Praye for them which hurt you and persecute you,
45 that ye maye be the children of your father which is in heauen: for he maketh his sonne to aryse on the euell, & on the good, & sendeth rayne on the iust & on the vniust.
46 For yf ye loue them which loue you: what reward haue ye? Do not the publycans also euen the same?
47 And yf ye make moche of your brethren only, what singuler thinge do ye? Do not also the publicans lykewise?
48 ye shall therfore be perfecte, euen as your father which is in heauen is perfecte.
