MATTHEW V. 9—41. ||Happy|| the peacemakers; For |they| shall be |called sons of God| : righteousness' sake; For |theirs| is the kingdom of the heavens. every' evil thing against you | falsely^ for my sake]: Rejoice and exult, because |your reward| is great in the heavens; for |so| persecuted they the prophets who were before you. |Ye| are the salt of the earth; but  wherewith shall it be salted? it is good |for nothing| any more, save, being cast out, to be trampled on by men. |Ye| are the light of the world : it is impossible for a city to be hid |on the top of a mountain| lying, Neither light they a lamp, and place it under the measure ; but upon the lampstand, and it giveth light to air that are in the house. ||In like manner|| let your light shine before men, — that they may see your good works,— and glorify your Father who is in the heavens. Do not think, that I came to pull down the law, or the prophets, — I came not to pull down, but to fulfil, For |verily| I say unto you,  |one least letter, or one point| may in nowise pass away from the law, till all be accomplished.  shall be called |least| in the kingdom of the heavens; but  |the same| shall be called For I say unto you, that  |in nowise| may ye enter into the kingdom of the heavens. Ye have heard, that it was said, to them of olden time, — Thou shall not commit murder, and  shall be |liable| to judgment. But |I| say unto you, that  shall be |liable| to judgment, — and  shall be unto the fiery gehenna.  leave, there, thy gift before the altar, and withdraw, — |first| be reconciled unto thy brother, and |then| coming, be offering thy gift. Be making agreement with thine adversary, quickly, while thou art with him, in the way, — lest once thine adversary deliver thee up unto the judge, and the judge, unto the officer, and |into prison! thou be cast. |Verily| I say unto thee, |In nowise| mayest thou come out from thence, until thou pay the last halfpenny. Ye have heard, that it was said, Thou shalt not commit adultery : But |I| say unto you, that  in his heart. And  pluck it out, and cast it from thee, — for it profiteth thee, that |one of thy members| should perish, and not ||thy whole body|| be cast into gehenna. And  cut it off, and cast it from thee, — for it profiteth thee, that |one of thy members| should perish, and not ||thy whole body|| |into gehenna| depart.

It was said, moreover,  let him give her a writing of divorcement; But |I| say unto you, that  causeth her to be made an adulteress, — [and |whosoever shall marry a divorced woman| committeth adultery].

|Again| ye have heard that it was said, to them of olden time, Thou shalt not swear falsely, — But shalt render unto the Lord^ thine oath^. But |I| tell you — not to swear |at all| : Neither by heaven, because it is the throne of God,— Nor by the earth, because it is his |footstool] ; Nor by Jerusalem, because it is the |city| of the Great King ; Nor ||by thine own head|| mayest thou swear, because thou art not able to make But let your word be.

But |I| tell you, not to resist evil, — Nay <whoever is smiting thee on the right' cheek> turn to him !the other' also] ;  And <him who is desiring thee to be judged, and to take ]thy tunic]> let him have |thy mantle also].
