Greek/English Interlinear with Strong’s Numbers
Matthew 18 - Greek/English/Strong’s Interlinear


King James Version

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.
New King James Version

“If your hand or foot causes you to sin, cut it off and cast it from you. It is better for you to enter into life lame or maimed, rather than having two hands or two feet, to be cast into the everlasting fire.
New American Standard Bible

“And if your hand or your foot is causing you to sin, cut it off and throw it away from you; it is better for you to enter life maimed or without a foot, than to have two hands or two feet and be thrown into the eternal fire.
New International Version

If your hand or your foot causes you to stumble, cut it off and throw it away. It is better for you to enter life maimed or crippled than to have two hands or two feet and be thrown into eternal fire.
The Amplified Bible

“If your hand or your foot causes you to stumble and sin, cut it off and throw it away from you [that is, remove yourself from the source of temptation]; it is better for you to enter life crippled or lame, than to have two hands or two feet and be thrown into everlasting fire.
Wuest’s Expanded Translation

Now, assuming that your hand or your foot causes you to stumble, cut it out at once and throw it from you. It is better for you to enter life disabled or lame, than having two hands or two feet, to be thrown into the fire which is everlasting.
Phillips’ Modern English

“If your hand or your foot is a hindrance to your faith, cut it off and throw it away. It is a good thing to go into life maimed or crippled – rather than to have both hands and feet and be thrown on to the everlasting fire.
Williams’ Language of the People

“And if your own hand or your own foot makes you do wrong, cut it off and put it out of your way. It is better for you to get into life maimed or crippled than to have both hands or both feet to be thrown into everlasting torture.
KJV with Strong’s Numbers

Wherefore 1161 if 1487 thy 4675 hand 5495 or 2228 thy 4675 foot 4228 offend 4624 thee, 4571 cut them 846 off, 1581 and 2532 cast 906 them from 575 thee: 4675 it is 2076 better 2570 for thee 4671 to enter 1525 into 1519 life 2222 halt 5560 or 2228 maimed, 2948 rather than 2228 having 2192 two 1417 hands 5495 or 2228 two 1417 feet 4228 to be cast 906 into 1519 everlasting 166 fire. 4442
