33 Again, you have heard that it was said to the ancients: "You shall not swear falsely, but shall give your oaths to the Lord." Lev. 19:12; Num. 30:2
34 But I say to you, Do not swear at all, neither by Heaven, because it is God's throne; Isa. 66:1
35 nor by the earth, because it is the footstool of His feet; nor by Jerusalem, because it is the city of the great King. Isa. 66:1; Psa. 48:2
36 Nor shall you swear by your head, because you are not able to make one hair white or black.
37 But let your word be Yes, yes; No, no. For whatever is more than these is from evil.
38 You have heard that it was said: "An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth;" Ex. 21:24; Lev. 24:20; Deut. 19:21
39 but I say to you, Do not resist the evil; but whoever strikes you on the right cheek, turn the other to him also.
40 And to him desiring to sue you, and to take your tunic, allow him also to have the coat.
41 And whoever shall compel you to go one mile, go two with him.
42 He asking you to give, and he wishing to borrow from you, do not turn away.
43 You have heard that it was said, "You shall love your neighbor" and hate your enemy; Lev. 19:18
44 but I say to you, Love your enemies; bless those cursing you, do well to those hating you; and pray for those abusing and persecuting you,
45 so that you may become sons of your Father in Heaven. Because He causes the sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the just and unjust.
46 For if you love those loving you, what reward do you have? Do not even the tax-collectors do the same?
47 And if you only greet your brothers, what exceptional thing do you do? Do not the tax-collectors do so?
48 Therefore, you be perfect even as your Father in Heaven is perfect.
