31 The law also said, ‘If a man divorces his wife, he should give her a certificate of divorce.’32 But I tell you that any man who divorces his wife except for sexual immorality causes her to commit adultery, and whoever marries a divorced woman commits adultery.
33 And again, you've heard that the law said to the people of long ago, ‘You shall not perjure yourself. Instead make sure you keep the oaths you swear to the Lord.’34 But I tell you, don't swear at all. Don't swear by heaven, because it's the throne of God.35 Don't swear by the earth, because it's God's footstool. Don't swear by Jerusalem, because it's the city of the great King.36 Don't even swear by your head, because you're not able to make a single hair white or black.37 Simply say yes or no—more than this comes from the evil one.
