There is a generation that are pure in their own eyes, and yet is not washed from their filthiness.

There is a generation, whose teeth are as swords, and their jaw teeth as knives, to devour the poor from off the earth, and the needy from among men.

But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees come to his baptism, he said unto them, O generation of vipers, who hath warned you to flee from the wrath to come?

But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light:

The eye that mocketh at his father, and despiseth to obey his mother, the ravens of the valley shall pick it out, and the young eagles shall eat it.

Whoso curseth his father or his mother, his lamp shall be put out in obscure darkness.

For every one that curseth his father or his mother shall be surely put to death: he hath cursed his father or his mother; his blood shall be upon him.

And they shall say unto the elders of his city, This our son is stubborn and rebellious, he will not obey our voice; he is a glutton, and a drunkard.

And all the men of his city shall stone him with stones, that he die: so shalt thou put evil away from among you; and all Israel shall hear, and fear.

Cursed be he that setteth light by his father or his mother. And all the people shall say, Amen.

For God commanded, saying, Honour thy father and mother: and, He that curseth father or mother, let him die the death.

And honour not his father or his mother, he shall be free. Thus have ye made the commandment of God of none effect by your tradition.

For Moses said, Honour thy father and thy mother; and, Whoso curseth father or mother, let him die the death:

And ye suffer him no more to do ought for his father or his mother;

But if any widow have children or nephews, let them learn first to shew piety at home, and to requite their parents: for that is good and acceptable before God.

But if any provide not for his own, and specially for those of his own house, he hath denied the faith, and is worse than an infidel.
