34. But I tell you, never swear an oath. Don’t swear an oath using the name of heaven, because heaven is God’s throne.
35. Don’t swear an oath using the name of the earth, because the earth belongs to God. Don’t swear an oath using the name of Jerusalem, because that is the city of the great King.
36. Don’t even swear by your own head, because you cannot make one hair on your head become white or black.
