Matthew 5:37-39

Complete Jewish Bible

³⁷ Just let your ‘Yes’ be a simple ‘Yes,’ and your ‘No’ a simple ‘No’; anything more than this has its origin in evil.

³⁸ “You have heard that our fathers were told, ‘Eye for eye and tooth for tooth.’^{[a] 39} But I tell you not to stand up against someone who does you wrong. On the contrary, if someone hits you on the right cheek, let him hit you on the left cheek too!
