Matthew 5:29-35

29 (A)If your right eye (B)causes you to sin, tear it out and throw it away. For it is better that you lose one of your members than that your whole body be thrown into (C)hell. 30 (D)And if your right hand (E)causes you to sin, cut it off and throw it away. For it is better that you lose one of your members than that your whole body go into (F)hell.
Divorce
31 (G)“It was also said, (H)‘Whoever divorces his wife, let him give her a certificate of divorce.’ 32 (I)But I say to you that everyone who divorces his wife, except on the ground of sexual immorality, makes her commit adultery, and (J)whoever marries a divorced woman commits adultery.
Oaths
33 “Again (K)you have heard that it was said to those of old, (L)‘You shall not swear falsely, but (M)shall perform to the Lord what you have sworn.’ 34 But I say to you, (N)Do not take an oath at all, either by heaven, for (O)it is the throne of God, 35 or by the earth, for it is his footstool, or by Jerusalem, for it is (P)the city of the great King.
