"but I say unto you, Swear not at all; neither by the heaven, for it is the throne of God; "
— Matthew 5:34, American Standard Version
“But I say unto you, Swear not at all; neither by heaven; for it is God’s throne:”
“but I tell you, don't swear at all: neither by heaven, for it is the throne of God;”
“But I say to you, do not take oaths at all– not by heaven, because it is the throne of God,”
“But I say to you not to swear at all, neither by heaven for it is the throne of God:”
“But I say to you, Take no oaths at all: not by the heaven, because it is the seat of God;”
“But I say unto you, Swear not at all; neither by heaven; for it is God’s throne:”
It was said also, Whosoever shall put away his wife, let him give her a writing of divorcement:
but I say unto you, that every one that putteth away his wife, saving for the cause of fornication, maketh her an adulteress: and whosoever shall marry her when she is put away committeth adultery.
Again, ye have heard that it was said to them of old time, Thou shalt not forswear thyself, but shalt perform unto the Lord thine oaths:
but I say unto you, Swear not at all; neither by the heaven, for it is the throne of God;
nor by the earth, for it is the footstool of his feet; nor by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the great King.
Neither shalt thou swear by thy head, for thou canst not make one hair white or black.
But let your speech be, Yea, yea; Nay, nay: and whatsoever is more than these is of the evil one.
