13 But woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because you shut up the kingdom of the heavens against the people: for you do not go in, neither do you permit those coming in to enter.
14 OMITTED TEXT
15 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because you compass the sea and the dry land to make one proselyte, and when it may be done, you make him twofold more the son of hell than yourselves.
16 Woe unto you, blind guides, who are saying, Whosoever may swear by the temple it is nothing; but whosoever may swear by the gold of the temple, he is debtor.
17 Ye fools and blind: for which is the greater, the gold, or the temple sanctifying the gold?
18 And, Whosoever may swear by the altar, it is nothing; but whosoever may swear by the gift upon it, is debtor.
19 Ye blind: for which is the greater, the gift, or the altar which sanctifies the gift?
20 Therefore the one swearing by the altar, swears by it, and by all things which are on it.
21 And the one swearing by the temple, swears by it, and by Him who inhabited it.
22 And the one swearing by heaven, swears by the throne of God, and by Him that sitteth upon it.
23 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because you tithe mint and anise and cummin, and pass by the weightier matters of the law, judgment, mercy, and faith: it behooves to do these and not to neglect those.
24 Ye blind guides, who strain out the gnat, and swallow down the camel.
25 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because you purify the exterior of the cup and the plate, and within they are full of extortion and impurity.
26 Ye blind Pharisee, first purify the inside of the cup, in order that its outside may be clean.
27 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because you are like whitened sepulchers, which are beautiful indeed externally, but within they are full of the hones of the dead people, and every impurity.
28 So you also appear unto the people indeed righteous, but within you are full of hypocrisy and iniquity.
