Matthew 5:27

New International Version

“You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall not commit adultery.’

See the chapter Copy

“You shall not commit adultery.

But a man who commits adultery has no sense; whoever does so destroys himself.

“ ‘Do not have sexual relations with your neighbor’s wife and defile yourself with her.

“ ‘If a man commits adultery with another man’s wife—with the wife of his neighbor—both the adulterer and the adulteress are to be put to death.

“You have heard that it was said to the people long ago, ‘You shall not murder, and anyone who murders will be subject to judgment.’

“Again, you have heard that it was said to the people long ago, ‘Do not break your oath, but fulfill to the Lord the vows you have made.’

“You have heard that it was said, ‘Eye for eye, and tooth for tooth.’

“You have heard that it was said, ‘Love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’

“You shall not commit adultery.
