Matthew 5:16-26
16EvenG2532 so let your lightG5457 shineG2989 before menG444; that they may seeG3708 your goodG2570 worksG2041, and glorifyG1392 your FatherG3962 who is in heavenG3772.
17ThinkG3543 not that I cameG2064 to destroyG2647 the lawG3551 or the prophetsG4396: I cameG2064 not to destroyG2647, but to fulfil. 18For verily I sayG3004 unto you, Till heavenG3772 and earthG1093 passG3928 awayG3928, oneG1520 jot or oneG1520 tittle shall in no wise passG3928 awayG3928 from the lawG3551, till all thingsG3956 be accomplished. 19Whosoever thereforeG3767 shall breakG3089 oneG1520 of these leastG1646 commandmentsG1785, and shall teachG1321 menG444 so, shall be calledG2564 leastG1646 in the kingdomG932 of heavenG3772: but whosoever shall do and teachG1321 them, he shall be calledG2564 greatG3173 in the kingdomG932 of heavenG3772. 20For I sayG3004 unto you, that except your righteousnessG1343 shall exceed the righteousnessG1343 of the scribesG1122 and PhariseesG5330, ye shall in no wise enterG1525 into the kingdomG932 of heavenG3772.
21Ye have heardG191 that it wasG1510 said to them of oldG744 time, Thou shalt not kill; and whosoever shall kill shall beG1510 in danger of the judgmentG2920: 22but I sayG3004 unto you, that every oneG3739 who isG1510 angryG3710 with his brotherG80 shall beG1510 in danger of the judgmentG2920; and whosoever shall sayG3004 to his brotherG80, Raca, shall beG1510 in danger of the councilG4892; and whosoever shall sayG3004, Thou fool, shall beG1510 in danger of the hellG1067 of fireG4442. 23If thereforeG3767 thou art offering thy giftG1435 at the altarG2379, and there rememberest that thy brotherG80 hath aught against thee, 24leaveG863 there thy giftG1435 before the altarG2379, and goG5217 thy way, firstG4413 be reconciled to thy brotherG80, and then comeG2064 and offerG4374 thy giftG1435. 25Agree with thine adversaryG476 quicklyG5035, while thou art with him in the wayG3598; lest haply the adversaryG476 deliverG3860 thee to the judgeG2923, and the judgeG2923 deliverG3860 thee to the officerG5257, and thou beG1510 castG906 into prisonG5438. 26Verily I sayG3004 unto thee, Thou shalt by no means comeG1831 out thence, till thou have paidG591 the lastG2078 farthing.
