Matthew(i)
33 Agayne ye haue hearde how it was sayed to them of olde time, thou shalt not forsweare thy self, but shalt performe thine othe to God.
34 But I saye vnto you, swere not at al, neither by heauen, for it is Goddes seate:
35 nor yet by the earth, for it is his fotstole: neither by Ierusalem for it is the citye of the great kinge
36 neither shalt thou sweare by thy head, because thou canst not make one whyte hear, or blacke.
37 But your communicacion shalbe, yea, yea: nay, nay. For whatsoeuer is more than that cometh to euell.
38 Ye haue hearde how it is sayed, an eye for an eye: a tothe for a tothe.
39 But I saye to you that ye resyst not wrong. But who soeuer geue the a blowe on the right cheke, tourne to hym the other.
40 And if anye man wyll sue the at the lawe, and take awaye thy coote, let hym haue thy clooke also.
41 And whosoeuer wyll compell the to goo a myle, goo with hym twaine.
42 Geue to hym that axeth, & from him that woulde borow tourne not away.
43 Ye haue hearde how it is said: thou shalt loue thy neighbour, and hate thyne enemy.
44 But I say vnto you loue your enemies. Blesse theim that cursse you. Do good to them that hate you. Pray for them which doo you wronge and persecute you,
45 that ye may be the chyldren of youre father that is in heauen: for he maketh his sonne to aryse on the yuyll, and on the good and sendeth his raine on the iust and vniust.
46 For if ye loue them, whiche loue you: what rewarde shall ye haue? Doo not the publicanes euen so?
47 And if ye be frendly to your brethren only what synguler thinge doo ye? Do not the publycanes likewyses?
48 Ye shall therfore be perfect, euen as your father which is in heauen, is perfect.
