Luke 16:14-18
14NowG1161 the PhariseesG5330, who were 1loversG5366 of moneyG5366, were listeningG191 to allG3956 theseG3778 thingsG3778 and 2were scoffingG1592 at Him. 15And He saidG3004 to them, “You are thoseG3588 who 3justifyG1344 yourselvesG1438 4in the sightG1799 of menG444, but 5GodG2316 knowsG1097 your heartsG2588; for that which is highlyG5308 esteemedG5308 amongG1722 menG444 is detestableG946 6in the sightG1799 of GodG2316.
16“7The LawG3551 and the ProphetsG4396 were proclaimed untilG3360 JohnG2491; sinceG575 that timeG5119 8the gospelG2097 of the kingdomG932 of GodG2316 9has been preachedG2097, and everyoneG3956 is forcingG971 his wayG971 into it. 1710But it is easierG2123 for heavenG3772 and earthG1093 to passG3928 awayG3928 thanG2228 for oneG1520 11strokeG2762 of a letterG2762 of the LawG3551 to failG4098.
18“12EveryoneG3956 who 13divorcesG630 his wifeG1135 and marriesG1060 anotherG2087 commitsG3431 adulteryG3431, and he who marriesG1060 one who is 14divorcedG630 from a husbandG435 commitsG3431 adulteryG3431.
