Matthew 5:27-32

27Ye have heardG191 that it was said, Thou shalt not commitG3431 adulteryG3431: 28but I sayG3004 unto you, that every one that looketh on a womanG1135 to lust after her hath committedG3431 adulteryG3431 with her alreadyG2235 in his heartG2588. 29And if thy rightG1188 eyeG3788 causeth thee to stumbleG4624, pluck it out, and castG906 it from thee: for it is profitableG4851 for thee that oneG1520 of thy membersG3196 should perishG622, and not thy wholeG3650 bodyG4983 be castG906 into hellG1067. 30And if thy rightG1188 handG5495 causeth thee to stumbleG4624, cutG1581 it off, and castG906 it from thee: for it is profitableG4851 for thee that oneG1520 of thy membersG3196 should perishG622, and not thy wholeG3650 bodyG4983 goG565 into hellG1067. 31It was said alsoG1161, Whosoever shall put awayG630 his wifeG1135, let him giveG1325 her a writing of divorcement: 32but I sayG3004 unto you, that every oneG3739 that putteth awayG630 his wifeG1135, saving for the cause of fornication, maketh her an adulteress: and whosoever shall marryG1060 her when she is put awayG630 committeth adulteryG3431.
