36 Nor shall you swear by your head, because you cannot make one hair white or black.
37 But let your ‘Yes’ mean ‘Yes,’ and ‘No’ mean ‘No.’ For whatever is more than these comes from the evil one.
38 “You have heard that it was said, ‘An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth.’
39 But I say to you, do not resist an evil person. But whoever strikes you on your right cheek, turn to him the other as well.
40 And if anyone sues you in a court of law and takes away your tunic, let him have your cloak also.
41 And whoever compels you to go a mile, go with him two.
42 Give to him who asks you, and from him who would borrow from you do not turn away.
