* Again , ye have heard (5656 ) that it hath been said (5681 ) by them of old time , Thou shalt not forswear thyself (5692 ), but shalt perform (5692 ) unto the Lord thine oaths : * But I say (5719 ) unto you , Swear (5658 ) not at all ; neither by heaven ; for it is (5748 ) Gods throne : * Nor by the earth ; for it is (5748 ) his footstool : neither by Jerusalem ; for it is (5748 ) the city of the great King . * Neither shalt thou swear (5661 ) by thy head , because thou canst (5736 ) not make (5658 ) one hair white or black . * But let your communication be (5749 ), Yea , yea ; Nay , nay : for whatsoever is more than these cometh (5748 ) of evil . * Ye have heard (5656 ) that it hath been said (5681 ), An eye for an eye , and a tooth for a tooth : * But I say (5719 ) unto you , That ye resist (5629 ) not evil : but whosoever shall smite (5692 ) thee on thy right cheek , turn (5657 ) to him the other also . * And if any man will (5723 ) sue thee at the law (5683 ), and take away (5629 ) thy coat , let him have (5628 ) thy cloke also . * And whosoever shall compel thee to go (5692 ) a mile , go (5720 ) with him twain . * Give (5720 ) to him that asketh (5723 ) thee , and from him that would (5723 ) borrow (5670 ) of thee turn not thou away (5652 ). * Ye have heard (5656 ) that it hath been said (5681 ), Thou shalt love (5692 ) thy neighbour , and hate (5692 ) thine enemy .
