Matthew 23:26
Compare all
24 Blind guides, who strain out a gnat and swallow a camel!
25 “Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! aFor you cleanse the outside of the cup and dish, but inside they are full of extortion and1 self-indulgence.  
26 Blind Pharisee, first cleanse the inside of the cup and dish, that the outside of them may be clean also.
27 “Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! aFor you are like whitewashed tombs which indeed appear beautiful outwardly, but inside are full of dead men’s bones and all uncleanness.  
28 Even so you also outwardly appear righteous to men, but inside you are full of hypocrisy and lawlessness.
29 a“Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! Because you build the tombs of the prophets and1 adorn the monuments of the righteous,  
30 and say, ‘If we had lived in the days of our fathers, we would not have been partakers with them in the blood of the prophets.’
