| Statenvertaling (Dutch) (SVV) | New International Version (NIV) |
| 12 Doch voor alle dingen, mijn broeders, zweert niet, noch bij den hemel, noch bij de aarde, noch enigen anderen eed; maar uw ja, zij ja, en het neen, neen; opdat gij in geen oordeel valt. | 12 Above all, my brothers, do not swear--not by heaven or by earth or by anything else. Let your "Yes" be yes, and your "No," no, or you will be condemned. |
