Matthew 5:37-39 (KJV)

 But let your communication be, Yea, yea; Nay, nay: for whatsoever is more than these cometh of evil.

 Ye have heard that it hath been said, An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth:

 But I say unto you, That ye resist not evil: but whosoever shall smite thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also.
