21You have heard that it was said to the ancients, You shall not murder, and whoever murders will be liable to the judgment.22Yet I say to you that everyone who is angry with his brother will be liable to the judgment, and whoever says to his brother, Fool, will be liable to the council, and whoever says, Foolish, will be liable to the Gehenna of fire.23If therefore you bring your gift to the altar and there remember that your brother has something against you,24leave your gift there before the altar and go first to be reconciled to your brother, and then come and bring your gift.25Be reconciled to your opponent quickly while you are with him on the road, lest your opponent hand you over to the judge, the judge to the officer, and you be thrown into prison.26Truly I say to you, You will not come out from there until you have paid the last penny.
