^{34 Ref} But I say to you, Take no oaths at all: not by the heaven, because it is the seat of God;

^{35 Ref} Or by the earth, because it is the resting-place for his foot; or by Jerusalem, because it is the town of the great King.

^{36 Ref} You may not take an oath by your head, because you are not able to make one hair white or black.

^{37 Ref} But let your words be simply, Yes or No: and whatever is more than these is of the Evil One.
