For God is able to make him stand. ⁵ This man putteth difference between day and day: another man counteth all days alike. See that no man waver in his own meaning. ⁶ He that observeth one day more than another, doth it for the Lord's pleasure. And he that observeth not one day more than another, doth it to please the Lord, also.

Destroy not him with thy meat, for whom Christ died. ¹⁶ Cause not your treasure to be evil spoken of. ¹⁷ For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink, but righteousness, peace and joy, in the holy ghost. ¹⁸ For whosoever in these things serveth Christ, pleaseth well God: and is commended of men. ¹⁹ Let us follow those things which make for peace: and things wherewith one may edify another. ²⁰ Destroy not the work of God for a little meat's sake. All things are pure: but it is evil for that man, which eateth with hurt of his conscience. ²¹ It is good neither to eat flesh, neither to drink wine, neither anything, whereby thy brother stumbleth, either falleth, or is made weak. ²² Hast thou faith?

³¹ Whether of these twain did the will of the father?" And they said unto him, "The first." Jesus said unto them, "Verily I say unto you, that the publicans and the harlots shall come into the kingdom of God before you. ³² For John came unto you, in the way of righteousness, and ye believed him not. But the publicans and the harlots believed him. And yet ye, though ye saw it, were not yet moved with repentance; that ye might afterward have believed him.

⁴⁶ "Beware of the scribes, which desire to go in long clothing: and love greetings in the markets, and the highest seats in the synagogues, and chief rooms at feasts, ⁴⁷ which devour widows' houses, and that under a colour of long praying: The same shall receive greater damnation."

³⁶ And one of the Pharisees desired him that he would eat with him. And he went into the Pharisee's house, and sat down to meat. ³⁷ And behold a woman in that city, which was a sinner, as soon as she knew that Jesus sat at meat in the Pharisee's house, she brought an alabaster box of ointment, ³⁸ and she stood at his feet behind him weeping, and began to wash his feet with tears, and did wipe them with the hairs of her head, and kissed his feet, and anointed them with ointment. ³⁹ When the Pharisee which bade him to his house, saw that, he spake within himself, saying, "If this man were a prophet, he would surely have known who and what manner woman this is which toucheth him, for she is a sinner." ⁴⁰ And Jesus answered, and said unto him, "Simon, I have somewhat to say unto thee." And he said, "Master say on." ⁴¹ "There was a certain lender, which had two debtors, the one ought five hundred pence, and the other fifty. ⁴² When they had nothing to pay, he forgave them both. Which of them tell me, will love him most?" ⁴³ Simon answered, and said, "I suppose that he to whom he forgave most." And he said unto him, "Thou hast truly judged." ⁴⁴ And he turned to the woman, and said unto Simon, "Seest thou this woman? I entered into thy house, and thou gavest me no water to my feet: but she hath washed my feet with tears, and wiped them with the hairs of her head. ⁴⁵ Thou gavest me no kiss: but she, since the time I came in, hath not ceased to kiss my feet. ⁴⁶ Mine head with oil thou didst not anoint: but she hath anointed my feet with ointment. ⁴⁷ Wherefore I say unto thee, Many sins are forgiven her, for she loved much. To whom less is forgiven, the same doeth less love." ⁴⁸ And he said unto her, "Thy sins are forgiven thee." ⁴⁹ And they that sat at meat with him, began to say within themselves, "Who is this which forgiveth sins also?" ⁵⁰ And he said to the woman, "Thy faith hath saved thee; Go in peace."

¹⁰ "Two men went up into the temple to pray: the one a Pharisee, and the other a publican. ¹¹ The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself, 'God, I thank thee that I am not as other men are; extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or as this publican. ¹² I fast twice in the week. I give tithe of all that I possess.' ¹³ And the publican stood afar off, and would not lift up his eyes to heaven, but smote his breast, saying, 'God be merciful to me, a sinner.' ¹⁴ I tell you, This man departed home to his house justified more than the other. For every man that exalteth himself, shall be brought low: And he that humbleth himself, shall be exalted."

¹ Then spake Jesus to the people, and to his disciples, ² saying, "The scribes and the Pharisees sit in Moses' seat, ³ All therefore, whatsoever they bid you observe, that observe and do: but after their works do not: for they say, and do not. ⁴ Yea, and they bind heavy burdens, and grievous to be borne, and lay them on men's shoulders: but they themselves will not heave at them with one of their fingers. ⁵ All their works they do, for to be seen of men. They set abroad their phylacteries, and make large borders on their garments, ⁶ and love to sit uppermost at feasts, and to have the chief seats in the synagogues, ⁷ and greetings in the markets, and to be called of men, 'Rabbi.' ⁸ But ye shall not suffer yourselves to be called Rabbi, for one is your master, that is, to wit, Christ, and all ye are brethren. ⁹ And call ye no man your father upon the earth, for there is but one, your father, and he is in heaven. ¹⁰ Be not called masters, for there is but one, your master, and he is Christ. ¹¹ He that is greatest among you, shall be your servant. ¹² But whosoever exalteth himself, shall be brought low. And he that humbleth himself, shall be exalted. ¹³ Woe be unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites, for ye shut up the kingdom of heaven before men: ye yourselves go not in, neither suffer ye them that come to enter in. ¹⁴ Woe be unto you, scribes and Pharisees, for ye devour widows' houses: and that, under a colour of praying long prayers, wherefore ye shall receive greater damnation. ¹⁵ Woe be unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites, for ye which compass sea and land, to bring one into your belief: and when he is brought, ye make him twofold more the child of hell, than ye yourselves are. ¹⁶ Woe be unto you, blind guides, for ye which say, 'Whosoever swear by the temple, it is nothing: but whosoever swear by the gold of the temple, he offendeth.' ¹⁷ Ye fools and blind: whether is greater; the gold, or the temple that sanctifieth the gold? ¹⁸ And, 'Whosoever sweareth by the altar it is nothing: but whosoever sweareth by the offering that lieth on the altar offendeth.' ¹⁹ Ye fools and blind: whether is greater; the offering, or the altar which sanctifieth the offering? ²⁰ Whosoever therefore sweareth by the altar, sweareth by it, and by all that thereon is. ²¹ And whosoever sweareth by the temple, sweareth by it, and by him that dwelleth therein. ²² And he that sweareth by heaven, sweareth by the seat of God, and by him that sitteth thereon. ²³ Woe be to you scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites, for ye which tithe mint, anise, and cumin, and leave the weightier matters of the law undone: judgment, mercy, and faith: these ought ye to have done, and not to have left the other undone. ²⁴ Ye blind guides, which strain out a gnat, and swallow a camel. ²⁵ Woe be to you scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites, for ye which make clean the outer side of the cup, and of the platter: but within they are full of bribery and excess. ²⁶ Thou blind Pharisee, cleanse first, that the inside of the cup and the platter, that the outside of them may also be clean. ²⁷ Woe be to you scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites, for ye are like unto painted tombs which appear beautiful outwards: but are within full of dead men's bones and of all filthiness. ²⁸ So are ye, for outward ye appear righteous unto men, when within ye are full of hypocrisy and iniquity. ²⁹ Woe be unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites, for ye build the tombs of the prophets, and garnish the sepulchers of the righteous ³⁰ and say, 'If we had been in the days of our fathers, we would not have been partners with them in the blood of the prophets.' ³¹ So then: ye be witnesses unto yourselves, that ye are the children of them, which killed the prophets. ³² Fulfill ye likewise the measure of your fathers: ³³ ye serpents and generation of vipers, how should ye escape the damnation of hell? ³⁴ "Wherefore, Behold, I send unto you prophets, wise men, and scribes. And of them: some shall ye kill and crucify, and some of them shall ye scourge in your synagogues, and persecute from city to city; ³⁵ that upon you may come all the righteous blood that was shed upon the earth: from the blood of righteous Abel, unto the blood of Zachariah the son of Barachiah, whom ye slew between the temple and the altar: ³⁶ Verily I say unto you, all these things shall light upon this generation. ³⁷ Jerusalem, Jerusalem, which killest prophets, and stonest them which are sent to thee: how often would I have gathered thy children together, as the hen gathereth her chicks under her wings? But ye would not. ³⁸ Behold, Your habitation shall be left unto you desolate. ³⁹ For I say unto you, ye shall not see me henceforth, till that ye say, Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord."
