1ⲧⲟⲧⲉ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ⲁϥⲥⲁϫⲓ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲛⲓⲙⲏϣ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲛⲉϥⲙⲁⲑⲏⲧⲏⲥ.
1Then Jesus spoke to the multitudes and to his disciples,

2Saying: The scribes and the Pharisees have sitten on the chair of Moses.

3All things therefore whatsoever they shall say to you, observe and do: but according to their works do ye not; for they say, and do not.

4For they bind heavy and insupportable burdens, and lay them on men’s shoulders; but with a finger of their own they will not move them.

5And all their works they do for to be seen of men. For they make their phylacteries broad, and enlarge their fringes.

6And they love the first places at feasts, and the first chairs in the synagogues,

7And salutations in the market place, and to be called by men, Rabbi.

8But be not you called Rabbi. For one is your master; and all you are brethren.

10Neither be ye called masters; for one is you master, Christ.

13But woe to you scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites; because you shut the kingdom of heaven against men, for you yourselves do not enter in; and those that are going in, you suffer not to enter.

14Woe to you scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites: because you devour the houses of widows, praying long prayers. For this you shall receive the greater judgment.

15Woe to you scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites; because you go round about the sea and the land to make one proselyte; and when he is made, you make him the child of hell twofold more than yourselves.

16Woe to you blind guides, that say, Whosoever shall swear by the temple, it is nothing; but he that shall swear by the gold of the temple, is a debtor.

20He therefore that sweareth by the altar, sweareth by it, and by all things that are upon it:

22And he that sweareth by heaven, sweareth by the throne of God, and by him that sitteth thereon.

23Woe to you scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites; because you tithe mint, and anise, and cummin, and have left the weightier things of the law; judgment, and mercy, and faith. These things you ought to have done, and not to leave those undone.

25Woe to you scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites; because you make clean the outside of the cup and of the dish, but within you are full of rapine and uncleanness.

27Woe to you scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites; because you are like to whited sepulchres, which outwardly appear to men beautiful, but within are full of dead men’s bones, and of all filthiness.
