Matthew 5:19-22

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.
