005:028 But I tell you that whoever looks at a woman and cherishes
lustful thoughts has already in his heart become guilty
with regard to her.
005:029 If therefore your eye, even the right eye, is a snare to you,
tear it out and away with it; it is better for you that one
member should be destroyed rather than that your whole body
should be thrown into Gehenna.
005:030 And if your right hand is a snare to you, cut it off and away with it;
it is better for you that one member should be destroyed
rather than that your whole body should go into Gehenna.
005:031 "It was also said, `If any man puts away his wife, let him
give her a written notice of divorce.'
005:032 But I tell you that every man who puts away his wife except
on the ground of unfaithfulness causes her to commit adultery,
and whoever marries her when so divorced commits adultery.
005:033 "Again, you have heard that it was said to the ancients,
`Thou shalt not swear falsely, but shalt perform thy vows
to the Lord.'
005:034 But I tell you not to swear at all; neither by Heaven,
for it is God's throne;
005:035 nor by the earth, for it is the footstool under His feet;
nor by Jerusalem, for it is the City of the Great King.
005:036 And do not swear by your head, for you cannot make one hair
white or black.
005:037 But let your language be, `Yes, yes,' or `No, no.'
Anything in excess of this comes from the Evil one.
