5:21 Teaching about murder and anger

21[ref]You all heard that your ancestors were told not to murder because any murderer will be sentenced. 22But I’m telling you that anyone who gets angry at another will be liable for judgement, and anyone who calls another person a numbskull will have to face the court, and if you call them a fool, you’re liable for hellfire. 23So if you’re there at the altar to offer your gift and remember that someone has something against you, 24leave your gift there at the altar and go and sort that out first, before coming back to offer your gift.

25Resolve things with your opponent as soon as you can, hopefully while you’re still on the way to the court, in case your opponent turns you in to the judge, and the judge to the officer, and then you’ll end up in prison. 26I can assure you that you won’t get out of prison until the fine is completely paid.


21You_all_heard that it_was_said to_the ancients:
You will_ not _be_murdering, and whoever, wishfully may_murder, will_be liable to_the judgment.
22But I am_saying to_you_all that everyone which being_angered by_the brother of_him, will_be liable to_the judgment, and whoever wishfully may_say to_the brother of_him:
Raca, will_be liable to_the council, and whoever wishfully may_say:
Foolish, will_be liable to the geenna of_ the _fire.
23Therefore if you_may_be_offering the gift of_you at the altar, and_there you_may_be_reminded that the brother of_you is_having something against you, 24leave the gift of_you there before the altar.
And be_going_away, first be_reconciled to_the brother of_you, and then having_come, be_offering the gift of_you.
25Be agreeing with_the opponent of_you quickly, as_long_as which you_are with him on the way, lest the opponent may_give_ you _over to_the judge, and the judge to_the attendant, and you_will_be_being_thrown into prison.
26Truly I_am_saying to_you, by_no_means you_may_ not _come_out from_there, until wishfully you_may_give_back the last quadran.
