[2] Saying, The scribes and the Pharisees sit in Moses' seat: [3] All therefore they bid observe, and do; but do not ye after their works: for they say, and do not. [4] they bind heavy burdens and grievous to be borne, and lay them on men's shoulders; but they themselves will not move them fingers. [5] But all their works they do for to be seen of men: they make broad their phylacteries, and enlarge the borders of their [6] love the uppermost rooms at feasts, and the chief seats in the synagogues, [7] And greetings in the markets, and to be called of men, Rabbi, [8] But not called Rabbi: for one and all brethren. [9] And call no father upon the earth: for one Father, which [10] Neither be ye called masters: one Master, even Christ. [11] But servant. [12] And whosoever shall exalt himself shall be abased; and he that shall humble himself shall be exalted. [13] But woe scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye shut up the kingdom of heaven against men: for neither go in yourselves, neither suffer ye them that are entering [14] Woe scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye devour widows' houses, and for a pretence long prayer: therefore ye shall receive damnation. [15] Woe scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye compass sea and land to make one proselyte, and when he is made, ye make him twofold more the child of hell [16] Woe ye blind guides, which say, Whosoever shall swear by the temple, nothing; but whosoever shall swear by the gold of the temple, he is a debtor! [17] Ye fools and blind: for whether the gold, or the temple that sanctifieth the gold? [18] And, Whosoever shall swear by the altar, nothing; but whosoever sweareth by the gift that is upon it, he is guilty. [19] blind: for whether the gift, or the altar that sanctifieth the gift? [20] Whoso therefore shall swear by the altar, sweareth by it, and by all things thereon. [21] And whoso shall swear by the temple, sweareth by it, and by him that dwelleth therein. [22] And he that shall swear by heaven, sweareth by the throne of God, and by him that sitteth thereon. [23] Woe scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye pay tithe of mint and anise and cummin, and have omitted the weightier matters of the law, judgment, mercy, and faith: ought ye to have done, and not the other undone. [24] Ye blind guides, which strain at a gnat, and swallow a camel. [25] Woe scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye make clean the outside of the cup and of the platter, but within they are full of extortion and excess. [26] Thou blind Pharisee, cleanse first that which is within the cup and platter, that the outside of them may be clean also. [27] Woe scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye are like unto whited sepulchres, which indeed appear beautiful outward, but are within full of dead men's bones, and of all uncleanness. [28] Even so also outwardly appear righteous unto men, but within full of hypocrisy and iniquity. [29] Woe scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because ye build the tombs of the prophets, and garnish the sepulchres of the righteous, [30] And say, If in the days fathers, we would not partakers with them in the blood of the prophets. [31] Wherefore ye be witnesses unto yourselves, that the children of them which killed the prophets. [32] up then the measure fathers. [33] Ye serpents, ye generation of vipers, how can ye escape the damnation of hell?
