5:27 Teaching about adultery and lust

27 “You all know that the scriptures say not to commit adultery,[ref] 28 but I’m telling you that if you look at a woman lustfully then you’ve already committed adultery in your mind. 29 If your right eye is causing you to stumble, then pluck it out and throw it away,[ref] 30 and if your right hand is causing you to stumble, cut it off and throw it away, because it’s better for you that one of your body parts would be taken than for your whole body to end up in the judgement fire.[ref]

5:29: Mat 18:9; Mrk 9:47.

5:30: Mat 18:8; Mrk 9:43.

27 You_all_heard that it_was_said:
You_˓will˒_ not _be_committing_adultery.

28 But I am_saying to_you_all that everyone which looking at_a_woman in_order that to_lust for_her, already committed_adultery with_her in the heart of_him.

29 And if the the right eye of_you is_stumbling you, pluck_ it _out and throw it from you, because/for it_is_benefitting for_you that one of_the members of_you may_perish, and not all the body of_you may_be_thrown into geenna.

30 And if the right hand of_you is_stumbling you, cut_off it and throw it from you, because/for it_is_benefitting for_you that one of_the members of_you may_perish, and not all the body of_you may_go_away into geenna.
