82 But verily I say unto you, swear not at all - neither by heaven, for it is God's throne, nor by the earth, for it is His footstool, Neither shalt thou swear by thy head, because thou canst not make one hair black or white;

83 But let your communication be, ' Yea, yea '; ' Nay, nay '; For whatsoever cometh of more than these are evil.

84 "And behold, it is written, ' An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth ';

85 But I say unto you that ye shall not resist evil, But whosoever shall smite thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also;

86 And if any man will sue thee at the law and take away thy coat, let him have thy cloak also;

87 And whosoever shall compel thee to go a mile, go with him twain;

88 Give to him that asketh thee, And to him that would borrow of thee, turn thou not away.

89 "And behold, it is written also that, ' Thou shalt love thy neighbor and hate thine enemy ';

90 But behold, I say unto you, love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you; And pray for them which despitefully use you and persecute you,

91 that ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven, For He maketh His sun to rise on the evil and on the good. "Therefore, those things which were of old time, which were under the law in Me, are all fulfilled;

92 Old things are done away and all things have become new, Therefore, I would that ye should be perfect even as I or your Father which is in heaven is perfect.
