If you find yourself (for god knows what reason) in need of assuring a French person that you will keep a promise, a safe option is Croix de bois, croix de fer, si je mens, je vais en enfer (Wooden cross, iron cross, if I lie, I go to hell). The context is effectively identical to the English ditty "Cross my heart, hope to die, stick a needle in my eye".
