- And as he spake, a certain Pharisee besought him to dine with him: and he went in, and sat down to meat.
- And when the Pharisee saw it, he marvelled that he had not first washed before dinner.
- And the Lord said unto him, Now do ye Pharisees make clean the outside of the cup and the platter; but your inward part is full of ravening and wickedness.
- Ye fools, did not he that made that which is without make that which is within also?
- But rather give alms of such things as ye have; and, behold, all things are clean unto you.
|
- Now when He had spoken, a Pharisee asked Him to have lunch with him; and He went in, and reclined at the table.
- When the Pharisee saw it, he was surprised that He had not first ceremonially washed before the meal.
- But the Lord said to him, "Now you Pharisees clean the outside of the cup and of the platter; but inside of you, you are full of robbery and wickedness.
- "You foolish ones, did not He who made the outside make the inside also?
- "But give that which is within as charity, and then all things are clean for you.

- But woe unto you, Pharisees! for ye tithe mint and rue and all manner of herbs, and pass over judgment and the love of God: these ought ye to have done, and not to leave the other undone.
- Woe unto you, Pharisees! for ye love the uppermost seats in the synagogues, and greetings in the markets.
- Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye are as graves which appear not, and the men that walk over them are not aware of them.
- Then answered one of the lawyers, and said unto him, Master, thus saying thou reproachest us also.
- And he said, Woe unto you also, ye lawyers! for ye lade men with burdens grievous to be borne, and ye yourselves touch not the burdens with one of your fingers.
|
- "But woe to you Pharisees! For you pay tithe of mint and rue and every kind of garden herb, and yet disregard justice and the love of God; but these are the things you should have done without neglecting the others.
- "Woe to you Pharisees! For you love the chief seats in the synagogues and the respectful greetings in the market places.
- "Woe to you! For you are like concealed tombs, and the people who walk over them are unaware of it."
- One of the lawyers said to Him in reply, "Teacher, when You say this, You insult us too."
- But He said, "Woe to you lawyers as well! For you weigh men down with burdens hard to bear, while you yourselves will not even touch the burdens with one of your fingers.
|
- Woe unto you! for ye build the sepulchres of the prophets, and your fathers killed them.
- Truly ye bear witness that ye allow the deeds of your fathers: for they indeed killed them, and ye build their sepulchres.
- Therefore also said the wisdom of God, I will send them prophets and apostles, and some of them they shall slay and persecute:
- That the blood of all the prophets, which was shed from the foundation of the world, may be required of this generation;
- From the blood of Abel unto the blood of Zacharias which perished between the altar and the temple: verily I say unto you, It shall be required of this generation.
|
- "Woe to you! For you build the tombs of the prophets, and it was your fathers who killed them.
- "So you are witnesses and approve the deeds of your fathers; because it was they who killed them, and you build their tombs.
- "For this reason also the wisdom of God said, 'I will send to them prophets and apostles, and some of them they will kill and some they will persecute,
- so that the blood of all the prophets, shed since the foundation of the world, may be charged against this generation,
- from the blood of Abel to the blood of Zechariah, who was killed between the altar and the house of God; yes, I tell you, it shall be charged against this generation.'
|
- Woe unto you, lawyers! for ye have taken away the key of knowledge: ye entered not in yourselves, and them that were entering in ye hindered.
- And as he said these things unto them, the scribes and the Pharisees began to urge him vehemently, and to provoke him to speak of many things:
- Laying wait for him, and seeking to catch something out of his mouth, that they might accuse him.
|
- "Woe to you lawyers! For you have taken away the key of knowledge; you yourselves did not enter, and you hindered those who were entering."
- When He left there, the scribes and the Pharisees began to be very hostile and to question Him closely on many subjects,
- plotting against Him to catch Him in something He might say.
