Dual Panel1Then <5119> spake <2980> (5656) Jesus <2424> to the multitude <3793>_, and <2532> to his <846> disciples <3101>_,
2Saying <3004> (5723)_, The scribes <1122> and <2532> the Pharisees <5330> sit <2523> (5656) in <1909> Moses <3475>_' seat <2515>_:
3All <3956> therefore <3767> whatsoever <302> <3745> they bid <2036> (5632) you <5213> observe <5083> (5721)_, [that] observe <5083> (5720) and <2532> do <4160> (5720)_; but <1161> do <4160> (5720) not <3361> ye after <2596> their <846> works <2041>_: for <1063> they say <3004> (5719)_, and <2532> do <4160> (5719) not <3756>_.
4For <1063> they bind <1195> (5719) heavy <926> burdens <5413> and <2532> grievous to be borne <1419>_, and <2532> lay <2007> (5719) [them] on <1909> men's <444> shoulders <5606>_; but <1161> they [themselves] will <2309> (5719) not <3756> move <2795> (5658) them <846> with one of their <846> fingers <1147>_.
5But <1161> all <3956> their <846> works <2041> they do <4160> (5719) for <4314> to be seen <2300> (5683) of men <444>_: <1161> they make broad <4115> (5719) their <846> phylacteries <5440>_, and <2532> enlarge <3170> (5719) the borders <2899> of their <846> garments <2440>_, {phylacteries: pieces of parchment containing sentences of the law}
6And <5037> love <5368> (5719) the uppermost rooms <4411> at <1722> feasts <1173>_, and <2532> the chief seats <4410> in <1722> the synagogues <4864>_,
7And <2532> greetings <783> in <1722> the markets <58>_, and <2532> to be called <2564> (5745) of <5259> men <444>_, Rabbi <4461>_, Rabbi <4461>_.
8But <1161> be <2564> (0) not <3361> ye <5210> called <2564> (5686) Rabbi <4461>_: for <1063> one <1520> is <2076> (5748) your <5216> Master <2519>_, [even] Christ <5547>_; and <1161> all <3956> ye <5210> are <2075> (5748) brethren <80>_.
9And <2532> call <2564> (5661) no <3361> [man] your <5216> father <3962> upon <1909> the earth <1093>_: for <1063> one <1520> is <2076> (5748) your <5216> Father <3962>_, which <3588> is in <1722> heaven <3772>_.
10Neither <3366> be ye called <2564> (5686) masters <2519>_: for <1063> one <1520> is <2076> (5748) your <5216> Master <2519>_, [even] Christ <5547>_.
11But <1161> he that is greatest <3187> among you <5216> shall be <2071> (5704) your <5216> servant <1249>_.
12And <1161> whosoever <3748> shall exalt <5312> (5692) himself <1438> shall be abased <5013> (5701)_; and <2532> he <3748> that shall humble <5013> (5692) himself <1438> shall be exalted <5312> (5701)_.
13But <1161> woe <3759> unto you <5213>_, scribes <1122> and <2532> Pharisees <5330>_, hypocrites <5273>_! for <3754> ye shut up <2808> (5719) the kingdom <932> of heaven <3772> against <1715> men <444>_: for <1063> ye <5210> neither <3761> go in <1525> (5736) [yourselves], neither <3756> suffer ye <863> (5719) them that are entering <1525> (5740) to go in <1525> (5629)_.
14Woe <3759> unto you <5213>_, scribes <1122> and <2532> Pharisees <5330>_, hypocrites <5273>_! for <3754> ye devour <2719> (5719) widows <5503>_' houses <3614>_, and <2532> for a pretence <4392> make <4336> (0) long <3117> prayer <4336> (5740)_: therefore <1223> <5124> ye shall receive <2983> (5695) the greater <4055> damnation <2917>_.
15Woe <3759> unto you <5213>_, scribes <1122> and <2532> Pharisees <5330>_, hypocrites <5273>_! for <3754> ye compass <4013> (5719) sea <2281> and <2532> land <3584> to make <4160> (5658) one <1520> proselyte <4339>_, and <2532> when <3752> he is made <1096> (5638)_, ye make <4160> (5719) him <846> twofold more <1362> the child <5207> of hell <1067> than yourselves <5216>_.
16Woe <3759> unto you <5213>_, [ye] blind <5185> guides <3595>_, which <3588> say <3004> (5723)_, Whosoever <3739> <302> shall swear <3660> (5661) by <1722> the temple <3485>_, it is <2076> (5748) nothing <3762>_; but <1161> whosoever <3739> <302> shall swear <3660> (5661) by <1722> the gold <5557> of the temple <3485>_, he is a debtor <3784> (5719)_!
17[Ye] fools <3474> and <2532> blind <5185>_: for <1063> whether <5101> is <2076> (5748) greater <3187>_, the gold <5557>_, or <2228> the temple <3485> that sanctifieth <37> (5723) the gold <5557>_?
18And <2532>_, Whosoever <3739> <1437> shall swear <3660> (5661) by <1722> the altar <2379>_, it is <2076> (5748) nothing <3762>_; but <1161> whosoever <3739> <302> sweareth <3660> (5661) by <1722> the gift <1435> that is upon <1883> it <846>_, he is guilty <3784> (5719)_. {guilty: or, debtor, or, bound}
19[Ye] fools <3474> and <2532> blind <5185>_: for <1063> whether <5101> [is] greater <3187>_, the gift <1435>_, or <2228> the altar <2379> that sanctifieth <37> (5723) the gift <1435>_?
20Whoso therefore <3767> shall swear <3660> (5660) by <1722> the altar <2379>_, sweareth <3660> (5719) by <1722> it <846>_, and <2532> by <1722> all things <3956> thereon <1883> <846>_.
21And <2532> whoso shall swear <3660> (5660) by <1722> the temple <3485>_, sweareth <3660> (5719) by <1722> it <846>_, and <2532> by <1722> him that dwelleth <2730> (5723) therein <846>_.
22And <2532> he that shall swear <3660> (5660) by <1722> heaven <3772>_, sweareth <3660> (5719) by <1722> the throne <2362> of God <2316>_, and <2532> by <1722> him that sitteth <2521> (5740) thereon <1883> <846>_.
23Woe <3759> unto you <5213>_, scribes <1122> and <2532> Pharisees <5330>_, hypocrites <5273>_! for <3754> ye pay tithe <586> (5719) of mint <2238> and <2532> anise <432> and <2532> cummin <2951>_, and <2532> have omitted <863> (5656) the weightier <926> [matters] of the law <3551>_, judgment <2920>_, <2532> mercy <1656>_, and <2532> faith <4102>_: these <5023> ought ye <1163> (5713) to have done <4160> (5658)_, and not <3361> to leave <863> (0) the other <2548> undone <863> (5721)_. {anise: Gr. dill}
24[Ye] blind <5185> guides <3595>_, which strain at <1368> (5723) a gnat <2971>_, and <1161> swallow <2666> (5723) a camel <2574>_.
25Woe <3759> unto you <5213>_, scribes <1122> and <2532> Pharisees <5330>_, hypocrites <5273>_! for <3754> ye make clean <2511> (5719) the outside <1855> of the cup <4221> and <2532> of the platter <3953>_, but <1161> within <2081> they are full <1073> (5719) of <1537> extortion <724> and <2532> excess <192>_.
26[Thou] blind <5185> Pharisee <5330>_, cleanse <2511> (5657) first <4412> that [which is] within <1787> the cup <4221> and <2532> platter <3953>_, that <2443> the outside <1622> of them <846> may be <1096> (5638) clean <2513> also <2532>_.
27Woe <3759> unto you <5213>_, scribes <1122> and <2532> Pharisees <5330>_, hypocrites <5273>_! for <3754> ye are like <3945> (5719) unto whited <2867> (5772) sepulchres <5028>_, which <3748> indeed <3303> appear <5316> (5727) beautiful <5611> outward <1855>_, but <1161> are within <2081> full <1073> (5719) of dead <3498> [men's] bones <3747>_, and <2532> of all <3956> uncleanness <167>_.
28Even so <3779> ye <5210> also <2532> <3303> outwardly <1855> appear <5316> (5743) righteous <1342> unto men <444>_, but <1161> within <2081> ye are <2075> (5748) full <3324> of hypocrisy <5272> and <2532> iniquity <458>_.
29Woe <3759> unto you <5213>_, scribes <1122> and <2532> Pharisees <5330>_, hypocrites <5273>_! because <3754> ye build <3618> (5719) the tombs <5028> of the prophets <4396>_, and <2532> garnish <2885> (5719) the sepulchres <3419> of the righteous <1342>_,
30And <2532> say <3004> (5719)_, If <1487> we had been <2258> (5713) in <1722> the days <2250> of our <2257> fathers <3962>_, we would <302> not <3756> have been <2258> (5713) partakers <2844> with them <846> in <1722> the blood <129> of the prophets <4396>_.
31Wherefore <5620> ye be witnesses <3140> (5719) unto yourselves <1438>_, that <3754> ye are <2075> (5748) the children <5207> of them which killed <5407> (5660) the prophets <4396>_.
32Fill <4137> (0) ye <5210> up <4137> (5657) then <2532> the measure <3358> of your <5216> fathers <3962>_.
33[Ye] serpents <3789>_, [ye] generation <1081> of vipers <2191>_, how <4459> can ye <5343> (5632) escape <575> the damnation <2920> of hell <1067>_?
34Wherefore <1223> <5124>_, behold <2400> (5628)_, I <1473> send <649> (5719) unto <4314> you <5209> prophets <4396>_, and <2532> wise men <4680>_, and <2532> scribes <1122>_: and <2532> [some] of <1537> them <846> ye shall kill <615> (5692) and <2532> crucify <4717> (5692)_; and <2532> [some] of <1537> them <846> shall ye scourge <3146> (5692) in <1722> your <5216> synagogues <4864>_, and <2532> persecute <1377> (5692) [them] from <575> city <4172> to <1519> city <4172>_:
35That <3704> upon <1909> you <5209> may come <2064> (5632) all <3956> the righteous <1342> blood <129> shed <1632> (5746) upon <1909> the earth <1093>_, from <575> the blood <129> of righteous <1342> Abel <6> unto <2193> the blood <129> of Zacharias <2197> son <5207> of Barachias <914>_, whom <3739> ye slew <5407> (5656) between <3342> the temple <3485> and <2532> the altar <2379>_.
36Verily <281> I say <3004> (5719) unto you <5213>_, All <3956> these things <5023> shall come <2240> (5692) upon <1909> this <5026> generation <1074>_.
37O Jerusalem <2419>_, Jerusalem <2419>_, [thou] that killest <615> (5723) the prophets <4396>_, and <2532> stonest <3036> (5723) them which are sent <649> (5772) unto <4314> thee <846>_, how often <4212> would I <2309> (5656) have gathered <1996> (0) thy <4675> <3739> children <5043> together <1996> (5629)_, even as <5158> a hen <3733> gathereth <1996> (5719) her <1438> chickens <3556> under <5259> [her] wings <4420>_, and <2532> ye would <2309> (5656) not <3756>_!
38Behold <2400> (5628)_, your <5216> house <3624> is left <863> (5743) unto you <5213> desolate <2048>_.
39For <1063> I say <3004> (5719) unto you <5213>_, Ye shall <1492> (0) not <3364> see <1492> (5632) me <3165> henceforth <575> <737>_, till <2193> <302> ye shall say <2036> (5632)_, Blessed <2127> (5772) [is] he that cometh <2064> (5740) in <1722> the name <3686> of the Lord <2962>_.
