24 Deixa ali tua oferta diante do altar e vai primeiro reconciliar-te com teu irmão, e então vem oferecer a tua oferta.
25 Faze acordo depressa com teu adversário, enquanto estás com ele no caminho, para não acontecer que o adversário te entregue ao juiz, e o juiz te entregue ao oficial, e te lancem na prisão.
