Matthew 5:27 in context

  1. 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.
  2. 26Verily I say unto thee, Thou shalt by no means come out thence, till thou have paid the last farthing.
  3. 27Ye have heard that it was said, Thou shalt not commit adultery:
  4. 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.
  5. 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.
