Matthew 18:6-8
English Standard Version
6 but (A)whoever causes one of these (B)little ones who believe in me to sin,[a] it would be better for him to have a great millstone fastened around his neck and to be drowned in the depth of the sea.
Temptations to Sin
7 “Woe to the world for (C)temptations to sin![b] (D)For it is necessary that temptations come, (E)but woe to the one by whom the temptation comes! 8 (F)And if your hand or your foot causes you to sin, cut it off and throw it away. It is better for you to enter life crippled or lame than with two hands or two feet to be thrown into (G)the eternal fire.
