Matthew 5:28-42

28but I sayG3004 to you that everyoneG3956 who looksG991 at a womanG1135 1with lustG1937 for her has alreadyG2235 committedG3431 adulteryG3431 with her in his heartG2588. 292IfG1487 your rightG1188 eyeG3788 makesG4624 you 3stumbleG4624, tearG1807 it out and throwG906 it from you; for it is betterG4851 for you 4to loseG622 oneG1520 of the partsG3196 of your body, 5thanG2532G3361 for your wholeG3650 bodyG4983 to be thrownG906 into 67hellG1067. 308IfG1487 your rightG1188 handG5495 makesG4624 you 9stumbleG4624, cutG1581 it offG1581 and throwG906 it from you; for it is betterG4851 for you 10to lose oneG1520 of the partsG3196 of your body, 11thanG2532G3361 for your wholeG3650 bodyG4983 to goG565 into 1213hellG1067.

31“It was saidG3004, ‘14WhoeverG3739G302 sendsG630 his wifeG1135 awayG630, let him giveG1325 her a certificateG647 of divorceG647’; 3215but I sayG3004 to you that everyoneG3956 who 16divorcesG630 his wifeG1135, exceptG3924 for the reasonG3056 of unchastityG4202, makesG4160 her commitG3431 adulteryG3431; and whoeverG3739G1437 marriesG1060 a 17divorcedG630 womanG1135 commitsG3429 adulteryG3429.

33“AgainG3825, 18you have heardG191 that 19the ancientsG744 were toldG3004, ‘2021You shall not 22makeG1964 falseG1964 vowsG1964, but shall fulfillG591 your 23vowsG3727 to the LordG2962.’ 34But I sayG3004 to you, 24makeG3660 noG3361 oathG3660 at allG3654, eitherG3383 by heavenG3772, for it is 25the throneG2362 of GodG2316, 35orG3383 by the earthG1093, for it is the 26footstoolG5286 of His feetG4228, orG3383 27by JerusalemG2414, for it is 28the cityG4172 of the greatG3173 KingG935. 36NorG3383 shall you makeG3660 an oathG3660 by your headG2776, for you cannotG1410G3756 makeG4160 oneG1520 hairG2359 whiteG3022 orG2228 blackG3189. 37But let your statementG3056 be, ‘YesG3483, yesG3483’ or ‘NoG3756, noG3756’; anything beyondG4053 theseG3778 is 29of 30evilG4190.

38“31You have heardG191 that it was saidG3004, ‘32An eyeG3788 for an eyeG3788, and a toothG3599 for a toothG3599.’ 39But I sayG3004 to you, do not resistG436 an evilG4190 person; but 33whoeverG3748 slapsG4474 you on your rightG1188 cheekG4600, turnG4762 the otherG243 to him alsoG2532. 40If anyone wantsG2309 to sueG2919 you and takeG2983 your 34shirtG5509, letG863 him haveG863 your 35coatG2440 alsoG2532. 41WhoeverG3748 36forcesG29 you to go oneG1520 mileG3400, goG5217 with him twoG1417. 4237GiveG1325 to him who asksG154 of you, and do not turnG654 awayG654 from him who wantsG2309 to borrowG1155 from you.
