Matthew 5:22-24

22But I sayG3004 to you that everyoneG3956 who isG3710 angryG3710 with his brotherG80 shall be answerableG1777 to 1the courtG2920; and whoeverG3739 G302 saysG3004 to his brotherG80, ‘2You good-for-nothingG4469,’ shall be answerableG1777 to 3 4the supremeG4892 courtG4892; and whoeverG3739 G302 saysG3004, ‘You foolG3474,’ shall be guiltyG1777 enough to go into the 5 6fieryG4442 hellG1067.

23ThereforeG3767, ifG1437 you are 7presentingG4374 your 8offeringG1435 at the altarG2379, and thereG2546 you rememberG3403 that your brotherG80 hasG2192 somethingG5100 againstG2596 you,

24leaveG863 your 9offeringG1435 thereG1563 beforeG1715 the altarG2379 and goG5217; firstG4413 beG1259 10reconciledG1259 to your brotherG80, and thenG5119 comeG2064 and presentG4374 your 11offeringG1435.
