The verse in its languages

Vulgate (Clementine)
Jura ergo per Deum, ne noceas mihi, et posteris meis, stirpique meæ : sed juxta misericordiam, quam feci tibi, facies mihi, et terræ in qua versatus es advena.
Septuagint (Swete)
νῦν οὖν ὄμοσόν μοι τὸν θεόν, μὴ ἀδικήσειν με μηδὲ τὸ σπέρμα μου μηδὲ τὸ ὄνομά μου· ἀλλὰ κατὰ τὴν δικαιοσύνην ἣν ἐποίησα μετὰ σοῦ ποιήσεις μετ᾽ ἐμοῦ, καὶ τῇ γῇ ᾗ σὺ παρῴκησας ἐν αὐτῇ.
Hebrew (WLC)
וְעַתָּ֗ה הִשָּׁ֨בְעָה לִּ֤י בֵֽאלֹהִים֙ הֵ֔נָּה אִם תִּשְׁקֹ֣ר לִ֔י וּלְנִינִ֖י וּלְנֶכְדִּ֑י כַּחֶ֜סֶד אֲשֶׁר עָשִׂ֤יתִי עִמְּךָ֙ תַּעֲשֶׂ֣ה עִמָּדִ֔י וְעִם הָאָ֖רֶץ אֲשֶׁר גַּ֥רְתָּה בָּֽהּ
