4 “‘Or in case a soul swears to the extent of speaking thoughtlessly+ with his lips to do evil+ or to do good as respects anything at all that the man might speak thoughtlessly in a sworn statement,+ although it had been hidden from him, and yet he himself has come to know it, then he has become guilty as respects one of these things.

12 And YOU must not swear in my name to a lie,+ so that you do profane the name of your God. I am Jehovah.

33 “Again YOU heard that it was said to those of ancient times, ‘You must not swear+ without performing, but you must pay your vows to Jehovah.’*+
