S28    AGAINST  OATHS
Matt 5    Mark     Luke  
33 "Again you have heard that it was said     
  to the men of old,    
  'You shall not swear falsely,    
  but shall perform to the Lord    
  what you have sworn.'    
34 But I say to you,    
  Do not swear at all,    
  either by heaven,    
  for it is the throne of God,    
35 or by the earth,    
  for it is his footstool,    
  or by Jerusalem,    
  for it is the city of the great King.    
36 And do not swear by your head,    
  for you cannot make one hair white or black.    
37 Let what you say be simply 'Yes' or 'No';    
  anything more than this comes from evil."
