"You have heard that it was said, 'YOU SHALL NOT COMMIT ADULTERY';

Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not commit adultery:

but I say to you that everyone who looks at a woman with lust for her has already committed adultery with her in his heart.

But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart.

"Now if your right eye is causing you to sin, tear it out and throw it away from you; for it is better for you to lose one of the parts of your body, than for your whole body to be thrown into hell.

And if thy right eye offend thee, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell.

"And if your right hand is causing you to sin, cut it off and throw it away from you; for it is better for you to lose one of the parts of your body, than for your whole body to go into hell.

And if thy right hand offend thee, cut it off, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell.
