Matthew 5:38

Bible in Basic English 1965

You have knowledge that it was said, An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth:

See the chapter Copy

You have knowledge that it was said in old times, You may not put to death; and, Whoever puts to death will be in danger of being judged:

You have knowledge that it was said, You may not have connection with another man's wife:

Then do to him what it was his purpose to do to his brother: and so put away the evil from among you.

Have no pity; let life be given for life, eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot.
