Matthew 5:36-39
36NorG3383 shall you takeG3660 anG3660 oathG3660 by your headG2776, for you cannotG1410G3756 makeG4160 a singleG1520 hairG2359 whiteG3022 orG2228 blackG3189. 37But make sure your statementG3056 is, ‘1YesG3483, yesG3483’ or ‘NoG3756, noG3756’; anything beyondG4053 theseG3778 is 2of 3evilG4190 origin.
38“4You have heardG191 that it was saidG3004, ‘5EyeG3788 for eyeG3788, and toothG3599 for toothG3599.’ 39But I sayG3004 to you, do not showG436 oppositionG436 against an evilG4190 person; but 6whoeverG3748 slapsG4474 you on your rightG1188 cheekG4600, turnG4762 the otherG243 toward him alsoG2532.
