For 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
5
But all their works they do to be seen by men. They make their phylacteries broad and enlarge the borders of their garments.
6
They love the best places at feasts, the best seats in the synagogues,
7
greetings in the marketplaces, and to be called by men, 'Rabbi, Rabbi.'
8
But you, do not be called 'Rabbi'; for One is your Teacher, the Christ, and you are all brethren.
9
Do not call anyone on earth your father; for One is your Father, He who is in heaven.
10
And do not be called teachers; for One is your Teacher, the Christ.
11
But he who is greatest among you shall be your servant.
12
And whoever exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted.
13
But woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you shut up the kingdom of heaven against men; for you neither go in yourselves, nor do you allow those who are entering to go in.
14
Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you devour widows' houses, and for a pretense make long prayers. Therefore you will receive greater condemnation.
