If thy hand offend thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter into life maimed, than having two hands to go into hell, into, the fire that never shall be quenched; where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched. And if thy foot offend thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter halt into life, than having two feet to be cast into hell, into the fire that never shall be quenched; where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched. And if thine eye offend thee, pluck it out: it is better for thee to enter into the kingdom of God with one eye, than having two eyes to be cast into circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision, but a new creature.
