1Then<5119> Jesus<2424> spoke<2980> to the crowds<3793> and to His disciples<3101>,
2saying<3004>: "The scribes<1122> and the Pharisees<5330> have seated<2523> themselves<2523> in the chair<2515> of Moses<3475>;
3therefore<3767> all<3956> that they tell<3004> you, do<4160> and observe<5083>, but do not do<4160> according<2596> to their deeds<2041>; for they say<3004> things and do not do<4160> them.
4"They tie<1195> up heavy<926> burdens<5413> and lay<2007> them on men's<444> shoulders<5606>, but they themselves<846> are unwilling<3756><2309> to move<2795> them with so much as a finger<1147>.
5"But they do<4160> all<3956> their deeds<2041> to be noticed<2300> by men<444>; for they broaden<4115> their phylacteries<5440> and lengthen<3170> the tassels<2899> of their garments.
6"They love<5368> the place<4411> of honor<4411> at banquets<1173> and the chief<4410> seats<4410> in the synagogues<4864>,
7and respectful greetings<783> in the market<58> places<58>, and being called<2564> Rabbi<4461> by men<444>.
8"But do not be called<2564> Rabbi<4461>; for One<1520> is your Teacher<1320>, and you are all<3956> brothers<80>.
9"Do not call<2564> anyone on earth<1093> your father<3962>; for One<1520> is your Father<3962>, He who is in heaven<3770>.
10"Do not be called<2564> leaders<2519>; for One<1520> is your Leader<2519>, that is, Christ<5547>.
11"But the greatest<3173> among you shall be your servant<1249>.
12"Whoever<3748> exalts<5312> himself<1438> shall be humbled<5013>; and whoever<3748> humbles<5013> himself<1438> shall be exalted<5312>.
13"But woe<3759> to you, scribes<1122> and Pharisees<5330>, hypocrites<5273>, because<3754> you shut<2808> off the kingdom<932> of heaven<3772> from people<444>; for you do not enter<1525> in yourselves<4771>, nor<3761> do you allow<863> those<3588> who are entering<1525> to go<1525> in.
14["Woe<3759> to you, scribes<1122> and Pharisees<5330>, hypocrites<5273>, because<3754> you devour<2719> widows'<5503> houses<3614>, and for a pretense<4392> you make<4336> long<3117> prayers<4336>; therefore<1223><3778> you will receive<2983> greater<4053> condemnation<2917>.]
15"Woe<3759> to you, scribes<1122> and Pharisees<5330>, hypocrites<5273>, because<3754> you travel<4013> around<4013> on sea<2281> and land<3584> to make<4160> one<1520> proselyte<4339>; and when<3752> he becomes<1096> one, you make<4160> him twice<1362> as much<1362> a son<5207> of hell<1067> as yourselves<4771>.
16"Woe<3759> to you, blind<5185> guides<3595>, who say<3004>, 'Whoever<3739><302> swears<3660> by the temple<3485>, that is nothing<3762>; but whoever<3739><302> swears<3660> by the gold<5557> of the temple<3485> is obligated<3784>.'
17"You fools<3474> and blind<5185> men<5185>! Which<5101> is more<3173> important<3173>, the gold<5557> or<2228> the temple<3485> that sanctified<37> the gold<5557>?
18"And, 'Whoever<3739><302> swears<3660> by the altar<2379>, that is nothing<3762>, but whoever<3739><302> swears<3660> by the offering<1435> on it, he is obligated<3784>.'
19"You blind<5185> men<5185>, which<5101> is more<3173> important<3173>, the offering<1435>, or<2228> the altar<2379> that sanctifies<37> the offering<1435>?
20"Therefore<3767>, whoever<3588> swears<3660> by the altar<2379>, swears<3660> both by the altar<2379> and by everything<3956> on it.
21"And whoever<3588> swears<3660> by the temple<3485>, swears<3660> both by the temple<846> and by Him who dwells<2730> within<2730> it.
22"And whoever<3588> swears<3660> by heaven<3772>, swears<3660> both by the throne<2362> of God<2316> and by Him who sits<2521> upon it.
23"Woe<3759> to you, scribes<1122> and Pharisees<5330>, hypocrites<5273>! For you tithe<586> mint<2238> and dill<432> and cummin<2951>, and have neglected<863> the weightier<926> provisions<926> of the law<3551>: justice<2920> and mercy<1656> and faithfulness<4102>; but these<3778> are the things you should<1163> have done<4160> without<3361> neglecting<863> the others<2548>.
24"You blind<5185> guides<3595>, who strain<1368> out a gnat<2971> and swallow<2666> a camel<2574>!
25"Woe<3759> to you, scribes<1122> and Pharisees<5330>, hypocrites<5273>! For you clean<2511> the outside<1855> of the cup<4221> and of the dish<3953>, but inside<2081> they are full<1073> of robbery<724> and self-indulgence<192>.
26"You blind<5185> Pharisee<5330>, first<4413> clean<2511> the inside<1787> of the cup<4221> and of the dish<3953>, so<2443> that the outside<1622> of it may become<1096> clean<2513> also<2532>.
27"Woe<3759> to you, scribes<1122> and Pharisees<5330>, hypocrites<5273>! For you are like<3945> whitewashed<2867> tombs<5028> which<3748> on the outside<1855> appear<5316> beautiful<5611>, but inside<2081> they are full<1073> of dead<3498> men's<3498> bones<3747> and all<3956> uncleanness<167>.
28"So<3779> you, too<2532>, outwardly<1855> appear<5316> righteous<1342> to men<444>, but inwardly<2081> you are full<3324> of hypocrisy<5272> and lawlessness<458>.
29"Woe<3759> to you, scribes<1122> and Pharisees<5330>, hypocrites<5273>! For you build<3618> the tombs<5028> of the prophets<4396> and adorn<2885> the monuments<3419> of the righteous<1342>,
30and say<3004>, 'If<1487> we had been<1510> living in the days<2250> of our fathers<3962>, we would not have been<1510> partners<2844> with them in shedding the blood<129> of the prophets<4396>.'
31"So<5620> you testify<3140> against yourselves<1438>, that you are sons<5207> of those<3588> who murdered<5407> the prophets<4396>.
32"Fill<4137> up, then<2532>, the measure<3358> of the guilt of your fathers<3962>.
33"You serpents<3789>, you brood<1081> of vipers<2191>, how<4459> will you escape<5343> the sentence<2920> of hell<1067>?
34"Therefore<1223><3778>, behold<2400>, I am sending<649> you prophets<4396> and wise<4680> men<4680> and scribes<1122>; some<1537> of them you will kill<615> and crucify<4717>, and some<1537> of them you will scourge<3146> in your synagogues<4864>, and persecute<1377> from city<4172> to city<4172>,
35so<3704> that upon you may fall<2064> the guilt of all<3956> the righteous<1342> blood<129> shed<1632> on earth<1093>, from the blood<129> of righteous<1342> Abel<6> to the blood<129> of Zechariah<2197>, the son<5207> of Berechiah<914>, whom<3739> you murdered<5407> between<3342> the temple<3485> and the altar<2379>.
36"Truly<281> I say<3004> to you, all<3956> these<3778> things<3778> will come<2240> upon this<3778> generation<1074>.
37"Jerusalem<2419>, Jerusalem<2419>, who kills<615> the prophets<4396> and stones<3036> those<3588> who are sent<649> to her! How<4212> often<4212> I wanted<2309> to gather<1996> your children<5043> together<1996>, the way<5158> a hen<3733> gathers<1996> her chicks<3556> under<5259> her wings<4420>, and you were unwilling<3756><2309>.
38"Behold<2400>, your house<3624> is being left<863> to you desolate<2048>!
39"For I say<3004> to you, from now<737> on you will not see<3708> Me until<2193> you say<3004>, 'BLESSED<2127> IS HE WHO COMES<2064> IN THE NAME<3686> OF THE LORD<2962>!'"
