Beware of the Scribes

38 Then ^aHe said to them in His teaching, ^b“Beware of the scribes, who desire to go around in long robes, ^clove greetings in the marketplaces,

39 the ^abest seats in the synagogues, and the best places at feasts,

40 ^awho devour widows’ houses, and¹ for a pretense make long prayers. These will receive greater condemnation.”
