43 And (A)if your hand causes you to sin, cut it off; it is better for you to enter life maimed, than, having your two hands, to go into [a](B)hell, into the (C)unquenchable fire.[b] 45 And if your foot is causing you to sin, cut it off; it is better for you to enter life without a foot, than, having your two feet, to be thrown into [c](D)hell.[d] 47 And (E)if your eye is causing you to sin, throw it away; it is better for you to enter the kingdom of God with one eye, than, having two eyes, to be thrown into [e](F)hell, 48 (G)where their worm does not die, and (H)the fire is not extinguished. 49 For everyone will be salted with fire. 50 Salt is good; but (I)if the salt becomes unsalty, with what will you [f]make it salty again? (J)Have salt in yourselves, and (K)be at peace with one another.”
