New American Standard Bible 1995
Matthew 5:36-39
36Nor shall you make an oath by your head, for you cannot make one hair white or black. 37But let your statement be, ‘Yes, yes’ or ‘No, no’; anything beyond these is 1of 2evil.
38“3You have heard that it was said, ‘4An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth.’ 39But I say to you, do not resist an evil person; but 5whoever slaps you on your right cheek, turn the other to him also.
