Mark 9:47 in context

  1. 45If your foot causes you to stumble, cut it off. It is better for you to enter into life lame, rather than having your two feet to be cast into Gehenna, into the fire that will never be quenched—
  2. 46‘where their worm doesn’t die, and the fire is not quenched.’
  3. 47If your eye causes you to stumble, cast it out. It is better for you to enter into God’s Kingdom with one eye, rather than having two eyes to be cast into the Gehenna of fire,
  4. 48‘where their worm doesn’t die, and the fire is not quenched.’
  5. 49For everyone will be salted with fire, and every sacrifice will be seasoned with salt.
