Matthew 5:27-29
Worldwide English (New Testament)
27 `You have heard that the law says, "Do not commit adultery [have another man or woman who is not your husband or wife]."
28 But I tell you that if a man looks at a woman and he wants her, then he has already committed adultery with her in his heart.
29 `If your right eye makes you do wrong, take it out and throw it away. It is better to lose a part of your body, than for your whole body to be thrown into hell.
