If your right
eye causes you to sin,
pluck it out and cast it from you;
for it is more profitable for you that one of your members
perish,
than for your whole body to be cast into hell.
And if your right hand causes you to sin,
cut it off and cast it from you;
for it is more profitable
for you that one of your members perish,
than for your whole body to be
cast into hell.
Then, when
desire has conceived,
it gives birth to sin;
and sin,
when itis full-grown,
brings forth death.
For what is
a man profited,
if he shall gain the whole world,
and lose his own soul?
