Mk 9:45a ... "And if your foot causes you to stumble, cast it off, ..."

Verse 45 has four phrases containing 26 dialog words. The first two phrases have these 9 words: ... Kai ean ho pous sou skandalizē se, apokopson auton ("And if the foot of you causes to stumble you, off-cast it, ...").

The 9 dialog words are top down. The diagram shows the red snare has caused one of the man's feet to stumble. The two words in the second phrase "apokopson auton" (off-cast it) show the man's foot has been cut off and "cast away."
