Matthew 18:8

ει δε η χειρ σου η ο πους σου σκανδαλιζει σε εκκοψον αυτα και βαλε απο σου καλον σοι εστιν εισελθειν εις την ζωην χωλον η κυλλον η δυο χειρας η δυο ποδας εχοντα βληθηναι εις το πυρ το αιωνιον
ei de ē cheir soy ē o poys soy skandalizei se ekkopson ayta kai bale apo soy kalon soi estin eiselthein eis tēn zōēn chōlon ē kyllon ē dyo cheiras ē dyo podas echonta blēthēnai eis to pyr to aiōnion
King James Version (KJV)

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.

Modern English

If your hand or your foot causes you to stumble, cut it off, and cast it from you. It is better for you to enter into life maimed or crippled, rather than having two hands or two feet to be cast into the eternal fire.
