Matthew 5:36-38

International Children’s Bible

³⁶ And don’t even say that your own head is proof that you will keep your oath. You cannot make one hair on your head become white or black. ³⁷ Say only ‘yes’ if you mean ‘yes,’ and say only ‘no’ if you mean ‘no.’ If you must say more than ‘yes’ or ‘no,’ it is from the Evil One.

Don’t Fight Back

³⁸ “You have heard that it was said, ‘An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth.’^[a]
