Matthew 5:33
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
Again, you have heard that it was said to the ancients, ‘Do not break your oath, but fulfill your vows to the Lord.’
In context
31 It has also been said, ‘Whoever divorces his wife must give her a certificate of divorce.’
32 But I tell you that anyone who divorces his wife, except for sexual immorality, brings adultery upon her. And he who marries a divorced woman commits adultery.
33 Again, you have heard that it was said to the ancients, ‘Do not break your oath, but fulfill your vows to the Lord.’
34 But I tell you not to swear at all: either by heaven, for it is God’s throne;
35 or by the earth, for it is His footstool; or by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the great King.
