43aIf your hand causes you to sin, cut it off. It is better for you to enter into life1maimed, rather than having two hands, to go to2hell, into the fire that shall never be quenched—
44where a‘Their worm does not die And the fire is not quenched.’
45And if your foot causes you to sin, cut it off. It is better for you to enter life lame, rather than having two feet, to be cast into1hell, into the fire that shall never be quenched—
46where a‘Their worm does not die, And the fire is not quenched.’
47And if your eye causes you to sin, pluck it out. It is better for you to enter the kingdom of God with one eye, rather than having two eyes, to be cast into1hell fire—
48where a‘Their worm does not die And the bfire is not quenched.’
Tasteless Salt Is Worthless
49“For everyone will be aseasoned with fire,band every sacrifice will be seasoned with salt.
50aSalt is good, but if the salt loses its flavor, how will you season it? bHave salt in yourselves, and chave peace with one another.”
