42But woe to you, Pharisees, because you tithe mint and rue and every herb; and pass over judgment, and the charity of God. Now these things you ought to have done, and not to leave the other undone.

43Woe to you, Pharisees, because you love the uppermost seats in the synagogues, and salutations in the marketplace.

44Woe to you, because you are as sepulchres that appear not, and men that walk over are not aware.

45And one of the lawyers answering, saith to him: Master, in saying these things, thou reproachest us also.

46But he said: Woe to you lawyers also, because you load men with burdens which they cannot bear, and you yourselves touch not the packs with one of your fingers.

47Woe to you who build the monuments of the prophets: and your fathers killed them.

48Truly you bear witness that you consent to the doings of your fathers: for they indeed killed them, and you build their sepulchres.

49For this cause also the wisdom of God said: I will send to them prophets and apostles; and some of them they will kill and persecute.

50That the blood of all the prophets which was shed from the foundation of the world, may be required of this generation,

51From the blood of Abel unto the blood of Zacharias, who was slain between the alter and the temple: Yea I say to you, It shall be required of this generation.

52Woe to you lawyers, for you have taken away the key of knowledge: you yourselves have not entered in, and those that were entering in, you have hindered.

53And as he was saying these things to them, the Pharisees and the lawyers began violently to urge him, and to oppress his mouth about many things,
