Matthew

Matthew 5:22–24

²²But I tell you that anyone who is angry with his brother^d will be subject to judgment. Again, anyone who says to his brother, ‘Raca,’^e will be subject to the Sanhedrin.^f But anyone who says, ‘You fool!’ will be subject to the fire of hell.^g

²³So if you are offering your gift at the altar and there remember that your brother has something against you, ²⁴leave your gift there before the altar. First go and be reconciled to your brother; then come and offer your gift.
