Matthew 23:25-33

Thomson(i) 25 Alas for you, Scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because you cleanse the outside of the cup and the plate; but on the inside they are full of rapine, and intemperance. 26 Blind Pharisee, cleanse first what is within the cup, and the plate; so the outside will be clean. 27 Alas for you, Scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because you are like whitened sepulchres. These indeed appear beautiful on the outside; but within they are full of dead men's bones, and of all Corruption. 28 In like manner you also appear outwardly to men to be righteous; but you are inwardly full of hypocrisy and iniquity. 29 Alas for you, Scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because you build the sepulchres of the prophets and adorn the monuments of the righteous, 30 and say, If we had been in the days of our fathers we would not have been their accomplices in the blood of the prophets. 31 So you testify against yourselves that you are the sons of them who killed the prophets. 32 As for you then, fill up the measure of your fathers. 33 Serpents! brood of vipers! how can you escape the punishment of hell?
