Also Mike, sala diay pod ang mo swear ka. Di ba kasagaran sa atong mga balak mo ingon "Isaad ko sa langit". However, a balak is not literal, it is only an expression / Abstract. That's how balak is, exaggerated; otherwise it will not be called a balak.

Matt. 5:33-37
Again, you have heard that it was said to those of ancient times, "You shall not swear falsely, but carry out the vows you have made to the Lord." But I say to you, Do not swear at all, either by heaven, for it is the throne of God, or by the earth, for it is his footstool, or by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the great King. And do not swear by your head, for you cannot make one hair white or black. Let your word be "Yes, Yes" or "No, No"; anything more than this comes from the evil one.
James 5:12
Above all, my brothers, do not swear - not by heaven or by earth or by anything else. Let your "Yes" be yes, and your "No," no, or you will be condemned.
