yes swearing while using the name of God. Also, when people say J---- M--- J-----. Get it? Anything or anytime the name of God is used not in a praise situation, or topic of discussion.
And do you mean the 'name' of God?

It's "take the name of the Lord in vain" and yes, that means swearing. Doesn't include a lot of swear words. Only when you use The name God, or Jesus, ..... Well you get the point.

Read the correct translation of the 10 Commandments.
Exodus 20:3-17—
3 You shall have no hinder gods (elohim) at all. They are in opposition against Me.
4 You shall not profane yourself and break My Laws by offering yourself in worship to a god (el) or an image of anything in heaven above, or on the earth beneath, or in the waters below.
5 You shall not bow down to them nor serve them; for I, Yahweh your Father, am a Heavenly Father Who is zealous for My House. I will make it known that the diseases caused by the sexual misconduct of the fathers will be upon their children to the third and fourth generation of those who hate Me,
6 But I will show My love to thousands who love Me by keeping My Laws.
7 You shall not take the Name of Yahweh your Heavenly Father to bring it to nothing, for Yahweh will not hold him guiltless who brings dishonor upon or profanes His Name.
8 Remember the Sabbath Day, to keep it holy.
9 Six days you shall labor and do all your work,
10 But the Seventh Day is the Sabbath of Yahweh your Heavenly Father. In it you shall do no regular work: you, nor your wife, nor your son, nor your daughter, nor your manservant, nor your maidservant, nor your cattle, nor the stranger who dwells within your gates.
11 For in six days Yahweh made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them; and rested the Seventh Day. Therefore, Yahweh blessed the Sabbath Day, and hallowed it; Yahweh made the Sabbath Day holy.
12 Honor your father and your mother, so your days may be long upon the land which Yahweh your Father is giving you.
13 You shall not murder.
14 You shall not commit adultery.
15 You shall not steal.
16 You shall not bear false testimony against your neighbor.
17 You shall not covet; lust after, your neighbor's house; you shall not covet your neighbor's wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his donkey, nor anything that belongs to your neighbor.
