All therefore whatsoever they bid you observe, that observe and do; but do not ye after their works: for they say, and do not.

Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye compass sea and land to make one proselyte, and when he is made, ye make him twofold more the child of hell than yourselves.

Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye pay tithe of mint and anise and cummin, and have omitted the weightier matters of the law, judgment, mercy, and faith: these ought ye to have done, and not to leave the other undone.

Behold, thou art called a Jew, and restest in the law, and makest thy boast of God,

And art confident that thou thyself art a guide of the blind, a light of them which are in darkness,

Thou therefore which teachest another, teachest thou not thyself? thou that preachest a man should not steal, dost thou steal?

Thou that makest thy boast of the law, through breaking the law dishonourest thou God?

What then? are we better than they? No, in no wise: for we have before proved both Jews and Gentiles, that they are all under sin;

There is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh after God.

Their throat is an open sepulchre; with their tongues they have used deceit; the poison of asps is under their lips:

Their feet are swift to shed blood:

And the way of peace have they not known:

Now we know that what things soever the law saith, it saith to them who are under the law: that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may become guilty before God.

While they promise them liberty, they themselves are the servants of corruption: for of whom a man is overcome, of the same is he brought in bondage.

Therefore let no man glory in men. For all things are yours;

Your glorying is not good. Know ye not that a little leaven leaveneth the whole lump?

Seeing that many glory after the flesh, I will glory also.
