Jesus is talking to a group of people about what they as individuals should or should not do. All occurrences of "you" and "your" are plural, except in verse 21, where they are singular. In some languages these occurrences of "you" and "your" may also need to be plural. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-you]])
