BLB(i)
20 Therefore the one having sworn by the altar swears by it and by all things that are upon it.
21 And the one having sworn by the temple swears by it and by the One dwelling in it.
22 And the one having sworn by heaven swears by the throne of God and by the One sitting upon it.
23 Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you pay tithes of mint and dill and cumin, and you have neglected the weightier things of the Law: justice and mercy and faithfulness. It behooved you to do these, and not to be leaving aside those.
24 Blind guides—those straining out the gnat and swallowing the camel!
25 Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you cleanse the outside of the cup and of the dish, but inside they are full of greed and intemperance.
26 Blind Pharisee! First cleanse the inside of the cup and of the dish, that their outside might become clean also.
27 Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you are like tombs having been whitewashed, which indeed outwardly appear beautiful, but inside they are full of bones of the dead, and of all impurity.
28 Thus indeed outwardly you also appear righteous to men, but inwardly you are full of hypocrisy and lawlessness.
