Personal Relationships
21 “(A)You have heard that [a]the ancients were told, ‘(B)You shall not commit murder’ and ‘Whoever commits murder shall be [b]liable to (C)the court.’ 22 But I say to you that everyone who is angry with his brother shall be [c]guilty before (D)the court; and whoever says to his brother, ‘[d]You good-for-nothing,’ shall be [e]guilty before [f](E)the supreme court; and whoever says, ‘You fool,’ shall be [g]guilty enough to go into the [h](F)fiery hell. 23 Therefore if you are (G)presenting your [i]offering at the altar, and there remember that your brother has something against you, 24 leave your [j]offering there before the altar and go; first be (H)reconciled to your brother, and then come and present your [k]offering.
