Matthew 5:28-39

28But I say unto you, that every one who looks upon a woman to lust after her has already committed adultery with her in his heart.

29But if thy right eye be a snare to thee, pluck it out and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members perish, and not thy whole body be cast into hell.

30And if thy right hand be a snare to thee, cut it off and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members perish, and not thy whole body be cast into hell.

31It has been said too, Whosoever shall put away his wife, let him give her a letter of divorce.

32But I say unto you, that whosoever shall put away his wife, except for cause of fornication, makes her commit adultery, and whosoever marries one that is put away commits adultery.

33Again, ye have heard that it has been said to the ancients, Thou shalt not forswear thyself, but shalt render to the Lord what thou hast sworn.

34But I say unto you, Do not swear at all; neither by the heaven, because it is [the] throne of 1God;

35nor by the earth, because it is [the] footstool of his feet; nor by Jerusalem, because it is [the] city of the great King.

36Neither shalt thou swear by thy head, because thou canst not make one hair white or black.

37But let your word be Yea, yea; Nay, nay; but what is more than these is from evil.

38Ye have heard that it has been said, Eye for eye and tooth for tooth.

39But I say unto you, not to resist evil; but whoever shall strike thee on thy right cheek, turn to him also the other;
