Matthew 5:27 in context
- 25Agree with thine adversary quickly, while thou art with him in the way; lest haply the adversary deliver thee to the judge, and the judge deliver thee to the officer, and thou be cast into prison.
- 26Verily I say unto thee, Thou shalt by no means come out thence, till thou have paid the last farthing.
- 27Ye have heard that it was said, Thou shalt not commit adultery:
- 28but I say unto you, that every one that looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart.
- 29And if thy right eye causeth thee to stumble, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not thy whole body be cast into hell.
