Murder Begins in the Heart
21 “You have heard that it was said to those
of old, ‘You shall not murder, and whoever murders will be in danger of
the judgment.’ 22 But I say to you that whoever
is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment.
And whoever says to his brother, ‘Raca!’ shall be in danger of the council.
But whoever says, ‘You fool!’ shall be in danger of hell fire.
23 Therefore if you bring your gift to the altar, and there remember
that your brother has something against you, 24
leave your gift there before the altar, and go your way. First be reconciled
to your brother, and then come and offer your gift. 25
Agree with your adversary quickly, while you are on the way with
him, lest your adversary deliver you to the judge, the judge hand you
over to the officer, and you be thrown into prison. 26
Assuredly, I say to you, you will by no means get out of there till you
have paid the last penny."
