40:023:014 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye devour widows' houses, and for a pretence make long prayer: therefore ye shall receive the greater damnation.
40:023:015 Woe unto you, 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 than yourselves.
40:023:016 Woe unto you, ye blind guides, which say, Whosoever shall swear by the temple, it is nothing; but whosoever shall swear by the gold of the temple, he is a debtor!
40:023:017 Ye fools and blind: for whether is greater, the gold, or the
temple that sanctifieth the gold?
40:023:018 And, Whosoever shall swear by the altar, it is nothing; but
whosoever sweareth by the gift that is upon it, he is guilty.
40:023:019 Ye fools and blind: for whether is greater, the gift, or the
altar that sanctifieth the gift?
40:023:020 Whoso therefore shall swear by the altar, sweareth by it, and
by all things thereon.
40:023:021 And whoso shall swear by the temple, sweareth by it, and by
him that dwelleth therein.
40:023:022 And he that shall swear by heaven, sweareth by the throne of
God, and by him that sitteth thereon.
40:023:023 Woe unto you, 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: these ought ye to have done, and not to leave the other undone.
