17 Let there be no thought that I have come to put an end to the law or the prophets. I have not come for destruction, but to make complete.
17
Do not think that I came to abolish the Torah or the Neviim. I did not come to abolish but to complete.
18 Truly I say to you, Till heaven and earth come to an end, not the smallest letter or part of a letter will in any way be taken from the law, till all things are done.
18
For, omein, truly I say to you, until Shomayim and haaretz pass away, not one yod, not one tag (ornamental flourish), will pass from the Torah until everything is accomplished.
