16 Woe to you guides blind, the saying: Whoever may swear by the temple, nothing it is; who but ever may swear by the gold of the temple, he is bound.
17 O fools and blind; which for greater is? the gold, or the temple, that sanctifying the gold?
18 Also; Whoever may swear by altar, nothing it is; who but ever may swear by the gift that upon it, he is bound.
19 O fools and blind; which for greater? the gift, or the altar, that sanctifying the gift?
20 He then answering by the altar swears by it and by all the (things) upon it;
21 and the swearing by the temple, swears by it and by the (one) having inhabited it;
22 and he swearing by the heaven, swears by the throne of the God and by the (one) sitting upon it.
23 Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites; because you tithe the mint, and the dill, and the cummin; and pass by the weightier (things) of the law, the justice, and mercy, and the faith. These but it is binding to do, and those not to omit.
24 Guides blind; the straining out the gnat the but camel swallowing down.
