For if a man with a gold ring in bright clothing comes into your synagogue, and also a poor man in dirty clothing comes in,

But ye have dishonored the poor man. Do not the rich exploit you, and they themselves drag you into courts?

But above all things, my brothers, swear not. Neither by the heaven, nor the earth, nor any other oath, but let your yes be yes, and the no, no, so that ye may not fall into hypocrisy.
