Matthew 5:21-22; Matthew 5:43-44 (New Living Translation)
21
"You have heard that the law of Moses says, 'Do not murder. If you commit murder, you are subject to judgment.'
22
But I say, if you are angry with someone, you are subject to judgment! If you call someone an idiot, you are in danger of being brought before the high council. And if you curse someone, you are in danger of the fires of hell.
43
"You have heard that the law of Moses says, 'Love your neighbor' and hate your enemy.
44
But I say, love your enemies! Pray for those who persecute you!
