Matthew - ch 23 v 1 - 20

  1. Then Jesus spoke to the multitude, and to his disciples,
  2. Saying, The scribes and the Pharisees sit in Moses's seat.
  3. All therefore, whatever they bid you observe, that observe and do: but do not ye according to their works: for they say, and do not.
  4. For they bind heavy burdens, and grievous to be borne, and lay them on men's shoulders; but they themselves will not move them with one of their fingers.
  5. But all their works they do to be seen by men: they make broad their phylacteries, and enlarge the borders of their garments,
  6. And love the uppermost rooms at feasts, and the chief seats in the synagogues,
  7. And greetings in the markets, and to be called by men, Rabbi, Rabbi.
  8. But be not ye called Rabbi: for one is your Master, even Christ; and all ye are brethren.
  9. And call no man your father upon the earth: for one is your Father who is in heaven.
  10. Neither be ye called masters: for one is your master, even Christ.
  11. But he that is greatest among you, shall be your servant.
  12. And whoever shall exalt himself, shall be abased; and he that shall humble himself, shall be exalted.
  13. But woe to you, scribes and Pharisees! hypocrites! for ye shut up the kingdom of heaven against men: for ye neither go in yourselves, neither suffer ye them that are entering, to go in.
  14. Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye devour widows' houses, and for a pretense make long prayer: therefore ye shall receive the greater damnation.
  15. Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye compass sea and land to make one proselyte, and when he is made, ye make him two-fold more the child of hell than yourselves.
  16. Woe to you, ye blind guides, who say, Whoever shall swear by the temple, it is nothing; but whoever shall swear by the gold of the temple, he is a debtor.
  17. Ye fools, and blind: for which is greater, the gold, or the temple that sanctifieth the gold?
  18. And whoever shall swear by the altar, it is nothing; but whoever sweareth by the gift that is upon it, he is guilty.
  19. Ye fools, and blind: for which is greater, the gift, or the altar that sanctifieth the gift?
  20. Whoever therefore shall swear by the altar, sweareth by it, and by all things upon it.
