33 Agayne, ye haue hearde that it was sayde vnto them of olde tyme: Thou shalt not forsweare thy selfe, but shalt perfourme vnto the Lorde thine othes
34 But, I say vnto you: Sweare not at all, neither by heauen, for it is gods seate
35 Nor by the earth, for it is his footestoole, neither by Hierusalem, for it is the citie of the great kyng
36 Neither shalt thou sweare by thy head, because thou canst not make one heere whyte or blacke
37 But let your communication be yea, yea, nay nay. For whatsoeuer is more then these, commeth of euyll
38 Ye haue hearde, that it is sayde, an eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth
39 But, I say vnto you, that ye resist not euyll. But, whosoeuer geueth thee a blowe on thy right cheeke, turne to him the other also
40 And yf any man wyll sue thee at the lawe, and take away thy coate, let him haue thy cloke also
41 And whosoeuer wyll compell thee to go a myle, go with hym twayne
42 Geue to hym that asketh thee: & from hym that woulde borowe of thee, turne not thou away
43 Ye haue heard, that it is saide: Thou shalt loue thy neyghbour, & hate thyne enemie
44 But I saye vnto you, loue your enemies, blesse them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, pray for the which hurt you, and persecute you
45 That ye may be the chyldren of your father, which is in heauen. For he maketh his sonne to aryse on the euyll, and on the good, and sendeth rayne on the iust, and on the vniust
46 For yf ye loue them which loue you, what rewarde haue ye? Do not the publicans also euen the same
47 And yf ye salute or greete your brethre only, what singuler thyng do ye? Do not also the publicans lykewyse
48 Ye shall therfore be perfecte, euen as your father, which is in heauen, is perfecte
