Matthew 18:7-9

New American Standard Bible 1995

Stumbling Blocks

⁷ “Woe to the world because of its stumbling blocks! For ^(A)it is inevitable that stumbling blocks come; but woe to that man through whom the stumbling block comes!

⁸ “^(B)If your hand or your foot causes you to stumble, cut it off and throw it from you; it is better for you to enter life crippled or lame, than ^[a]to have two hands or two feet and be cast into the eternal fire. ^9 (C)If your eye causes you to stumble, pluck it out and throw it from you. It is better for you to enter life with one eye, than ^[b]to have two eyes and be cast into the ^[c](D)fiery hell.
