Matthew 18:7

Temptations To Sin

⁶ but whoever ensnares one of these little ones that believe in me, it were better for him that a millstone were hung about his neck, and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea. ⁷ Alas for the world because of snares! for it is necessary that snares come: but alas for that man by whom the snare comes! ⁸ If, then, your hand or your foot ensnares you, cut it off, and throw it from you. It is better for you to enter into life lame or maimed, than, having two hands or two feet, to be thrown into the eternal fire.
