Matthew 5:22

* The two F.O.G. Bibles & Commentary below are currently a work in progress.

But I tell you that anyone who is angry with his brother will be subject to judgment. Again, anyone who says to his brother, ‘Raca,’ will be subject to the Sanhedrin. But anyone who says, ‘You fool!’ will be subject to the fire of hell.
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
But I tell you, that everyone who is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment; and whoever shall say to his brother, ‘Raca!’ shall be in danger of the council; and whoever shall say, ‘You fool!’ shall be in danger of the fire of Gehenna.
World English Bible (WEB)
But{G1161} I{G1473} say{G3004}{(G5719)} unto you{G5213}, That{G3754} whosoever{G3956} is angry{G3710}{(G5746)} with his{G846} brother{G80} without a cause{G1500} shall be{G2071}{(G5704)} in danger{G1777} of the judgment{G2920}: and{G1161} whosoever{G3739}{G302} shall say{G2036}{(G5632)} to his{G846} brother{G80}, Raca{G4469}, shall be{G2071}{(G5704)} in danger{G1777} of the council{G4892}: but{G1161} whosoever{G3739}{G302} shall say{G2036}{(G5632)}, Thou fool{G3474}, shall be{G2071}{(G5704)} in danger{G1777} of{G1519} hell{G1067} fire{G4442}.
Strong's King James
(22) But I say to you that everyone who is angry with his brother is subject to the judgement and whoever says to his brother, 'Reqa! (Empty-head - good for nothing)' is subject before the Sanhedrin and whoever says, 'You stupid fool is subject to go into Gei-Hinnom (hell) of fire.'
The F.O.G*
[22] But I reveal a deeper truth: Anyone who harbors anger against another is subject to judgment. Anyone who says to a brother or sister, 'You fool!' is in danger of hell's fire. Contempt and character assassination are forms of murder in the heart.
The F.O.G Paraphrase
but I—I say to you, that every one who is angry at his brother without cause, shall be in danger of the judgment, and whoever may say to his brother, Empty fellow! shall be in danger of the sanhedrim, and whoever may say, Rebel! shall be in danger of the gehenna of the fire.
