Matthew 5:33-37
New Living Translation
Teaching about Vows
33 “You have also heard that our ancestors were told, ‘You must not break your vows; you must carry out the vows you make to the Lord.’[a] 34 But I say, do not make any vows! Do not say, ‘By heaven!’ because heaven is God’s throne. 35 And do not say, ‘By the earth!’ because the earth is his footstool. And do not say, ‘By Jerusalem!’ for Jerusalem is the city of the great King. 36 Do not even say, ‘By my head!’ for you can’t turn one hair white or black. 37 Just say a simple, ‘Yes, I will,’ or ‘No, I won’t.’ Anything beyond this is from the evil one.

Nueva Traducción Viviente
Enseñanza acerca de los juramentos
33 »También han oído que a nuestros antepasados se les dijo: “No rompas tus juramentos; debes cumplir con los juramentos que le haces al Señor”[a] . 34 Pero yo digo: ¡no hagas juramentos! No digas: “¡Por el cielo!”, porque el cielo es el trono de Dios. 35 Y no digas: “¡Por la tierra!”, porque la tierra es donde descansa sus pies. Tampoco digas: “¡Por Jerusalén!”, porque Jerusalén es la ciudad del gran Rey. 36 Ni siquiera digas: “¡Por mi cabeza!”, porque no puedes hacer que ninguno de tus cabellos se vuelva blanco o negro. 37 Simplemente di: “Sí, lo haré” o “No, no lo haré”. Cualquier otra cosa proviene del maligno.

Oaths
33 “Again, you have heard that it was said to the people long ago, ‘Do not break your oath,(A) but fulfill to the Lord the vows you have made.’(B) 34 But I tell you, do not swear an oath at all:(C) either by heaven, for it is God’s throne;(D) 35 or by the earth, for it is his footstool; or by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the Great King.(E) 36 And do not swear by your head, for you cannot make even one hair white or black. 37 All you need to say is simply ‘Yes’ or ‘No’;(F) anything beyond this comes from the evil one.[a](G)
