But I say to you, Take no oaths at all: not by the heaven, because it is the seat of God;
But I say to you that everyone whose eyes are turned on a woman with desire has had connection with her in his heart.
And if your right eye is a cause of trouble to you, take it out and put it away from you; because it is better to undergo the loss of one part, than for all your body to go into hell.
But I say to you that everyone who puts away his wife for any other cause but the loss of her virtue, makes her false to her husband; and whoever takes her as his wife after she is put away, is no true husband to her.
You have knowledge that it was said, You may not have connection with another man's wife:
You may not take an oath by your head, because you are not able to make one hair white or black.
Or by the earth, because it is the resting-place for his foot; or by Jerusalem, because it is the town of the great King.
But I say to you that everyone who is angry with his brother will be in danger of being judged; and he who says to his brother, Raca, will be in danger from the Sanhedrin; and whoever says, You foolish one, will be in danger of the hell of fire.
Again, you have knowledge that it was said in old times, Do not take false oaths, but give effect to your oaths to the Lord:
While your offering is still before the altar, first go and make peace with your brother, then come and make your offering.
If then you are making an offering at the altar and there it comes to your mind that your brother has something against you,
Come to an agreement quickly with him who has a cause against you at law, while you are with him on the way, for fear that he may give you up to the judge and the judge may give you to the police and you may be put into prison.
And if your right hand is a cause of trouble to you, let it be cut off and put it away from you; because it is better to undergo the loss of one part, than for all your body to go into hell.
Again, it was said, Whoever puts away his wife has to give her a statement in writing for this purpose:
And he said to them, Come after me, and I will make you fishers of men.
Happy are the clean in heart: for they will see God.
Happy are those whose heart's desire is for righteousness: for they will have their desire.
And Jesus went about in all Galilee, teaching in their Synagogues and preaching the good news of the kingdom, and making well those who were ill with any disease among the people.
From that time Jesus went about preaching and saying, Let your hearts be turned from sin, for the kingdom of heaven is near.
For I say to you, If your righteousness is not greater than the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, you will never go into the kingdom of heaven.
Happy are the peacemakers: for they will be named sons of God.
Happy are you when men give you a bad name, and are cruel to you, and say all evil things against you falsely, because of me.
Truly I say to you, Till heaven and earth come to an end, not the smallest letter or part of a letter will in any way be taken from the law, till all things are done.
Happy are those who are sad: for they will be comforted.
And news of him went out through all Syria; and they took to him all who were ill with different diseases and pains, those having evil spirits and those who were off their heads, and those who had no power of moving. And he made them well.
And when he was walking by the sea of Galilee, he saw two brothers, Simon, whose other name was Peter, and Andrew, his brother, who were putting a net into the sea; for they were fishermen.
Matthew 5
And seeing great masses of people he went up into the mountain; and when he was seated his disciples came to him.
And they went straight from the boat and their father and came after him.
