1 Then Jesus spoke to the multitudes and to His disciples,

2 saying: ^a“The scribes and the Pharisees sit in Moses’ seat.

3 Therefore whatever they tell you¹ to observe, that observe and do, but do not do according to their works; for ^athey say, and do not do.

4 ^aFor they bind heavy burdens, hard to bear, and lay them on men’s shoulders; but they themselves will not move them with one of their fingers.
