Matthew 5:33-37

New American Standard Bible

³³ “Again, ^(A)you have heard that ^[a]the ancients were told, ‘^[b](B)You shall not ^[c]make false vows, but shall fulfill your ^[d]vows to the Lord.’ ³⁴ But I say to you, ^(C)take no oath at all, neither by heaven, for it is ^(D)the throne of God, ³⁵ nor by the earth, for it is the ^(E)footstool of His feet, nor ^[e]by Jerusalem, for it is ^(F)the city of the great King. ³⁶ Nor shall you take an oath by your head, for you cannot make a single hair white or black. ³⁷ But make sure your statement is, ‘^[f]Yes, yes’ or ‘No, no’; anything beyond these is ^[g]of ^(G)evil origin.
