31
It has been said too, Whosoever shall put away his wife, let him give her a letter of divorce.
32
But *I* say unto you, that whosoever shall put away his wife, except for cause of fornication, makes her commit adultery, and whosoever marries one that is put away commits adultery.
33
Again, ye have heard that it has been said to the ancients, Thou shalt not forswear thyself, but shalt render to the Lord what thou hast sworn.
34
But *I* say unto you, Do not swear at all; neither by the heaven, because it is [the] throne of God;
35
nor by the earth, because it is [the] footstool of his feet; nor by Jerusalem, because it is [the] city of the great King.
36
Neither shalt thou swear by thy head, because thou canst not make one hair white or black.
37
But let your word be Yea, yea; Nay, nay; but what is more than these is from evil.
38
Ye have heard that it has been said, Eye for eye and tooth for tooth.
39
But *I* say unto you, not to resist evil; but whoever shall strike thee on thy right cheek, turn to him also the other;
40
and to him that would go to law with thee and take thy body coat, leave him thy cloak also.
41
And whoever will compel thee to go one mile, go with him two.
