Matthew 5:21–28

Anger

^21y“You have heard that it was said to those of old, ^z‘You shall not murder; and whoever murders will be liable ^ato judgment.’ ²²But I say to you that ^beveryone who is angry with his brother³ will be liable ^ato judgment; whoever insults⁴ his brother will be liable to the council; and whoever says, ‘You fool!’ will be liable to ^cthe hell⁵ of fire. ^23dSo if ^eyou are offering your gift at the altar and there remember that your brother has something against you, ²⁴leave your gift there before the altar and go. First be reconciled to your brother, and then come and offer your gift. ^25fCome to terms quickly with your accuser while you are going with him to court, lest your accuser hand you over to the judge, and the judge to the guard, and you be put in prison. ²⁶Truly, I say to you, ^gyou will never get out until you have paid the last penny.⁶

Lust

^27h“You have heard that it was said, ⁱ‘You shall not commit adultery.’ ²⁸But I say to you that ^jeveryone who looks at a woman with lustful intent has already committed adultery with her in his heart.
