33 Agayne, ye haue hearde how it was sayd to them of olde tyme: thou shalt not forsweare thy selfe, but shalt perfourme vnto the Lorde those thinges that thou swearest.
34 But I say vnto you: sweare not at all: nether by heauen, for it is Goddes seate,
35 nor by the earth, for it is his fote stole: nether by Ierusalem, for it is the cytie of the great king:
36 nether shalt thou sweare by thy heed, because thou canst not make one heare whyte or blacke.
37 But your communicacyon shalbe, ye, ye, nay, nay: For whatsoeuer is added more then these, it commeth of euyll.
38 Ye haue hearde that it is sayd: an eye for an eye: and a toth for a toth.
39 But I saye vnto you, that ye resist not euell. But whosoeuer geue the a blowe on the ryght cheke, turne to hym the other also.
40 And yf eny man wyll sue the at the law, and take awaye thy coate, let him haue thy clooke also.
41 And whosoeuer wyll compell the to go a myle, go with him twayne.
42 Geue to him that asketh the, and from hym that wolde borowe, turne not thou awaye.
43 Ye haue heard that it is sayde, thou shalt loue thyne neyghbour, and hate thyne enemy.
44 But I saye vnto you: loue your enemyes. Blesse them that curse you. Do good to them that hate you. Praye for them which hurt you and persecute you,
45 that ye maye be the children of your father which is in heauen: for he maketh his sonne to aryse on the euell, & on the good, & sendeth rayne on the iust & on the vniust.
46 For yf ye loue them which loue you: what reward haue ye? Do not the publycans also euen the same?
47 And yf ye make moche of your brethren only, what singuler thinge do ye? Do not also the publicans lykewise?
48 ye shall therfore be perfecte, euen as your father which is in heauen is perfecte.
