For he who said, “Do not commit adultery,” also said, “Do not commit murder.” Now if you do not commit adultery but do murder, you have become a transgressor of the law.

ગુજરાતીયાકૂબનો પત્ર ૨:૧૧
કેમ કે જેમણે કહ્યું, ‘તું વ્યભિચાર ન કર, ‘તેમણે જ કહ્યું કે, ‘તું હત્યા ન કર;’ માટે જો તું વ્યભિચાર ન કરે, પણ જો તું હત્યા કરે છે, તો તું નિયમશાસ્ત્રનો ભંગ કરનારો થયો છે.
हिन्दीयाकूब २:११
इसलिए कि जिसने यह कहा, “तू व्यभिचार न करना” उसी ने यह भी कहा, “तू हत्या न करना” इसलिए यदि तूने व्यभिचार तो नहीं किया, पर हत्या की तो भी तू व्यवस्था का उल्लंघन करनेवाला ठहरा। (निर्ग. 20:13,14, व्यव. 5:17,18)

In context

9But if you show partiality, you commit sin, being convicted by the law as transgressors.

10For whoever keeps the whole law, and yet stumbles in one point, he has become guilty of all.

11For he who said, “Do not commit adultery,” also said, “Do not commit murder.” Now if you do not commit adultery but do murder, you have become a transgressor of the law.

12So speak and so do as men who are to be judged by the law of freedom.

13For judgment is without mercy to him who has shown no mercy. Mercy triumphs over judgment.
