Wherefore if thy hand or thy foot offend thee, cut them off, and cast them from thee: it is better for thee to enter into life halt or maimed, rather than having two hands or two feet to be cast into everlasting fire.
Por tanto, si tu mano o tu pie te hace pecar, córtalo y échalo de ti. Es mejor para ti entrar en la vida manco o cojo, que tener dos manos o dos pies y ser echado en el fuego eterno.
Es mejor sacrificar lo que nos lleva al pecado que perder la vida eterna.
