12. నా సోదరులారా, ఒక ముఖ్యమైన సంగతి. ఆకాశం తోడనీ భూమి తోడనీ మరి దేని తోడనీ ఒట్టు పెట్టుకోవద్దు. మీరు “అవునంటే అవును, కాదంటే కాదు” అన్నట్టుగా ఉంటే మీరు తీర్పు పాలు కారు.

TEV
12. నా సహోదరులారా, ముఖ్యమైన సంగతి ఏదనగా, ఆకాశముతోడనిగాని భూమితోడనిగాని మరి దేని తోడనిగాని ఒట్టుపెట్టుకొనక, మీరు తీర్పుపాలు కాకుండునట్లు అవునంటే అవును కాదంటే కాదు అని ఉండవలెను.

ERVTE
12. నా సోదరులారా! అన్నిటికన్నా ముఖ్యమైనదేమిటంటే, పరలోకం పేరిట గాని, భూమి పేరిట గాని, మరేదానిపై గాని ఒట్టు పెట్టుకోకండి. మీరు “ఔను” అని అనాలనుకొంటె “ఔను” అనండి. “కాదు” అని అనాలనుకొంటె “కాదు” అని అనండి. అలా చేస్తే దేవుడు మిమ్మల్ని శిక్షించడు.
