You have stored up to yourselves wrath against the last days. |

Let your `yes' be simply `yes,' and your `no' be simply `no;' that you may not come under condemnation. | But above all things, my brethren, swear not, neither by heaven, nor by the earth, nor by any other oath. But let your speech be, yea, yea: no, no: that you fall not under judgment. |

For the continual prayer of a just man availeth much. |
