43 'And if thy hand may cause thee to stumble, cut it off; it is better for thee maimed to enter into the life, than having the two hands, to go away to the gehenna, to the fire — the unquenchable — (Geenna g1067)
And if thy hand cause thee to fall away, cut it off. It is better for thee to enter into life maimed, than having the two hands to go away into hell, into the fire that is unquenchable. (Geenna g1067)
44 where their worm is not dying, and the fire is not being quenched.

48 where their worm is not dying, and the fire is not being quenched;
where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched.
