For verily I say unto you, Until heaven and earth pass
away, not one jot or one tittle shall pass from the law until all is fulfilled.
19
Whosoever therefore shall undo one of these least commandments and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of the heavens; but whosoever shall do and teach
them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of the heavens.
20
For I say unto you, That except your righteousness shall exceed
the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in no case enter into the kingdom of the heavens.
21
Ye have heard that it was said to the ancients, Thou shalt not commit murder, and whosoever shall commit murder shall be guilty of the judgment;
22
but I say unto you, That whosoever is angry with his brother out of control shall be in danger of the judgment, and whosoever shall insult his brother shall be in danger of the council, but whosoever shall say, Thou art impious, shall be in danger of hell.
23
Therefore if thou bring thy gift to the altar, and there remember that thy brother has something against thee;
24
leave thy gift there before the altar, and go; first restore friendship with thy brother, and then come and offer thy gift.
25
Conciliate with thine adversary quickly, whiles thou art in the way with him; lest at any time the adversary deliver thee to the judge, and the judge deliver thee to the officer, and thou be cast into prison.
26
Verily I say unto thee, Thou shalt by no means come out of there, until thou hast paid the uttermost farthing.
27
Ye have heard that it was said to the ancients, Thou shalt not commit adultery;
28
but I say unto you, That whosoever looks on a woman to lust after her has committed adultery with her already in his heart.
