Then spake Jesus to the multitude, and to his disciples,
Τότε ὁ Ἰησοῦς ἐλάλησεν τοῖς ὄχλοις καὶ τοῖς μαθηταῖς αὐτοῦ,
Tote ho Iēsous elalēsen tois ochlois kai tois mathētais autou,
He said, “The scribes and Pharisees sit in Moses’ seat.
Saying, The scribes and the Pharisees sit in Moses’ seat:
λέγων, Ἐπὶ τῆς Μωσέως καθέδρας ἐκάθισαν οἱ γραμματεῖς καὶ οἱ Φαρισαῖοι∙
legōn, Epi tēs Mōseōs kathedras ekathisan hoi grammateis kai hoi Pharisaioi;
So practice and keep everything they tell you to observe, but do not imitate what they do. They say one thing and do another.
All therefore whatsoever they bid you observe, that observe and do; but do not ye after their works: for they say, and do not.
πάντα οὖν ὅσα ἐὰν εἴπωσιν ὑμῖν τηρεῖν, τηρεῖτε καὶ ποιεῖτε∙ κατὰ δὲ τὰ ἔργα αὐτῶν μὴ ποιεῖτε, λέγουσιν γὰρ καὶ οὐ ποιοῦσιν.
panta oun hosa ean eipōsin hymin tērein, tēreite kai poieite; kata de ta erga autōn mē poieite, legousin gar kai ou poiousin.
They tie up heavy, unbearable burdens and place them on other people’s shoulders, but they are unwilling to move those burdens even with one finger.
For they bind heavy burdens and grievous to be borne, and lay them on men’s shoulders; but they themselves will not move them with one of their fingers.
Δεσμεύουσιν γὰρ φορτία βαρέα καὶ δυσβάστακτα, καὶ ἐπιτιθέασιν ἐπὶ τοὺς ὤμους τῶν ἀνθρώπων, τῷ δὲ δακτύλῳ αὐτῶν οὐ θέλουσιν κινῆσαι αὐτά.
Desmeuousin gar phortia barea kai dysbastakta, kai epititheasin epi tous ōmous tōn anthrōpōn, tō de daktylō autōn ou thelousin kinēsai auta.
Everything they do is designed to be noticed by people. They make their Scripture boxes broad and the fringes on their garments long.
But all their works they do for to be seen of men: they make broad their phylacteries, and enlarge the borders of their garments,
Πάντα δὲ τὰ ἔργα αὐτῶν ποιοῦσιν πρὸς τὸ θεαθῆναι τοῖς ἀνθρώποις∙ πλατύνουσιν δὲ τὰ φυλακτήρια αὐτῶν, καὶ μεγαλύνουσιν τὰ κράσπεδα τῶν ἱματίων αὐτῶν∙
Panta de ta erga autōn poiousin pros to theathēnai tois anthrōpois; platynousin de ta phylaktēria autōn, kai megalynousin ta kraspeda tōn himatiōn autōn;
They love the places of honor at banquets and the best seats in the synagogues.
And love the uppermost rooms at feasts, and the chief seats in the synagogues,
φιλοῦσίν τε τὴν πρωτοκλισίαν ἐν τοῖς δείπνοις, καὶ τὰς πρωτοκαθεδρίας ἐν ταῖς συναγωγαῖς,
philousin te tēn prōtoklisian en tois deipnois, kai tas prōtokathedrias en tais synagōgais,
They love being greeted publicly in the marketplaces and having people call them, ‘Rabbi, Rabbi.’
And greetings in the markets, and to be called of men, Rabbi, Rabbi.
καὶ τοὺς ἀσπασμοὺς ἐν ταῖς ἀγοραῖς, καὶ καλεῖσθαι ὑπὸ τῶν ἀνθρώπων, Ῥαββί, ῥαββί∙
kai tous aspasmous en tais agorais, kai kaleisthai hypo tōn anthrōpōn, Rhabbi, rhabbi;
But you are not to be called Rabbi, because One is your Teacher—the Christ—and all of you are brothers.
But be not ye called Rabbi: for one is your Master, even Christ; and all ye are brethren.
ὑμεῖς δὲ μὴ κληθῆτε Ῥαββί∙ εἷς γάρ ἐστιν ὑμῶν ὁ καθηγητής, ὁ χριστός∙ πάντες δὲ ὑμεῖς ἀδελφοί ἐστε.
hymeis de mē klēthēte Rhabbi; heis gar estin hymōn ho kathēgētēs, ho christos; pantes de hymeis adelphoi este.
And do not call anyone on earth your father (in the sense of your ultimate spiritual authority), because One is your Father—the One in heaven.
And call no man your father upon the earth: for one is your Father, which is in heaven.
Καὶ πατέρα μὴ καλέσητε ὑμῶν ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς∙ εἷς γάρ ἐστιν ὁ πατὴρ ὑμῶν, ὁ ἐν τοῖς οὐρανοῖς.
Kai patera mē kalesēte hymōn epi tēs gēs; heis gar estin ho patēr hymōn, ho en tois ouranois.
Nor are you to be called spiritual masters, because One is your Leader—the Christ.
Neither be ye called masters: for one is your Master, even Christ.
Μηδὲ κληθῆτε καθηγηταί∙ εἷς γὰρ ὑμῶν ἐστιν ὁ καθηγητής, ὁ χριστός.
Mēde klēthēte kathēgētai; heis gar hymōn estin ho kathēgētēs, ho christos.
The greatest among you must be your servant.
But he that is greatest among you shall be your servant.
Ὁ δὲ μείζων ὑμῶν ἔσται ὑμῶν διάκονος.
Ho de meizōn hymōn estai hymōn diakonos.
Whoever exalts himself will be humbled, and whoever humbles himself will be exalted.
And whosoever shall exalt himself shall be abased; and he that shall humble himself shall be exalted.
Ὅστις δὲ ὑψώσει ἑαυτόν, ταπεινωθήσεται∙ καὶ ὅστις ταπεινώσει ἑαυτόν, ὑψωθήσεται.
Hostis de hypsōsei heauton, tapeinōthēsetai; kai hostis tapeinōsei heauton, hypsōthēsetai.
“How terrible it will be for you, scribes and Pharisees—hypocrites! You consume widows’ households while making long prayers as a religious show. Because of this, you will receive even greater judgment.
¶ But woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye shut up the kingdom of heaven against men: for ye neither go in yourselves, neither suffer ye them that are entering to go in.
Οὐαὶ δὲ ὑμῖν, γραμματεῖς καὶ Φαρισαῖοι, ὑποκριταί, ὅτι κατεσθίετε τὰς οἰκίας τῶν χηρῶν, καὶ προφάσει μακρὰ προσευχόμενοι∙ διὰ τοῦτο λήψεσθε περισσότερον κρίμα.
Ouai de hymin, grammateis kai Pharisaioi, hypokritai, hoti katesthiete tas oikias tōn chērōn, kai prophasei makra proseuchomenoi; dia touto lēpsesthe perissoteron krima.
How terrible it will be for you, scribes and Pharisees—hypocrites! You shut the kingdom of heaven in people’s faces. You refuse to enter yourselves, and you prevent those who are trying to enter.
Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye devour widows’ houses, and for a pretence make long prayer: therefore ye shall receive the greater damnation.
Οὐαὶ ὑμῖν, γραμματεῖς καὶ Φαρισαῖοι, ὑποκριταί, ὅτι κλείετε τὴν βασιλείαν τῶν οὐρανῶν ἔμπροσθεν τῶν ἀνθρώπων∙ ὑμεῖς γὰρ οὐκ εἰσέρχεσθε, οὐδὲ τοὺς εἰσερχομένους ἀφίετε εἰσελθεῖν.
Ouai hymin, grammateis kai Pharisaioi, hypokritai, hoti kleiete tēn basileian tōn ouranōn emprosthen tōn anthrōpōn; hymeis gar ouk eiserchesthe, oude tous eiserchomenous aphiete eiselthein.
How terrible it will be for you, scribes and Pharisees—hypocrites! You travel across sea and land to make a single convert, and when you succeed, you make him twice as much a child of hell as you are.
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.
Οὐαὶ ὑμῖν, γραμματεῖς καὶ Φαρισαῖοι, ὑποκριταί, ὅτι περιάγετε τὴν θάλασσαν καὶ τὴν ξηρὰν ποιῆσαι ἕνα προσήλυτον, καὶ ὅταν γένηται, ποιεῖτε αὐτὸν υἱὸν γεέννης διπλότερον ὑμῶν.
Ouai hymin, grammateis kai Pharisaioi, hypokritai, hoti periagete tēn thalassan kai tēn xēran poiēsai hena prosēlyton, kai hotan genētai, poieite auton huion geennēs diploteron hymōn.
How terrible it will be for you, blind guides! You say, ‘If someone swears by the temple, it means nothing. But if someone swears by the gold of the temple, he is bound by his oath.’
Woe unto you, ye blind guides, which say, Whosoever shall swear by the temple, it is nothing; but whosoever shall swear by the gold of the temple, he is a debtor!
Οὐαὶ ὑμῖν, ὁδηγοὶ τυφλοί, οἱ λέγοντες, Ὃς ἂν ὀμόσῃ ἐν τῷ ναῷ, οὐδέν ἐστιν∙ ὃς δ’ ἂν ὀμόσῃ ἐν τῷ χρυσῷ τοῦ ναοῦ, ὀφείλει.
Ouai hymin, hodēgoi typhloi, hoi legontes, Hos an omosē en tō naō, ouden estin; hos d’ an omosē en tō chrysō tou naou, opheilei.
Fools and blind men! Which is greater—the gold, or the temple that makes the gold holy?
Ye fools and blind: for whether is greater, the gold, or the temple that sanctifieth the gold?
Μωροὶ καὶ τυφλοί∙ τίς γὰρ μείζων ἐστίν, ὁ χρυσός, ἢ ὁ ναὸς ὁ ἁγιάζων τὸν χρυσόν;
Mōroi kai typhloi; tis gar meizōn estin, ho chrysos, ē ho naos ho hagiazōn ton chryson?
You also say, ‘If someone swears by the altar, it means nothing. But if someone swears by the gift on the altar, he is bound by his oath.’
And, Whosoever shall swear by the altar, it is nothing; but whosoever sweareth by the gift that is upon it, he is guilty.
Καί, Ὃς ἐὰν ὀμόσῃ ἐν τῷ θυσιαστηρίῳ, οὐδέν ἐστιν∙ ὃς δ’ ἂν ὀμόσῃ ἐν τῷ δώρῳ τῷ ἐπάνω αὐτοῦ, ὀφείλει.
Kai, Hos ean omosē en tō thysiastēriō, ouden estin; hos d’ an omosē en tō dōrō tō epanō autou, opheilei.
Fools and blind men! Which is greater—the gift, or the altar that makes the gift holy?
Ye fools and blind: for whether is greater, the gift, or the altar that sanctifieth the gift?
Μωροὶ καὶ τυφλοί∙ τί γὰρ μεῖζον, τὸ δῶρον, ἢ τὸ θυσιαστήριον τὸ ἁγιάζον τὸ δῶρον;
Mōroi kai typhloi; ti gar meizon, to dōron, ē to thysiastērion to hagiazon to dōron?
Therefore, whoever swears by the altar swears by it and by everything placed upon it.
Whoso therefore shall swear by the altar, sweareth by it, and by all things thereon.
Ὁ οὖν ὀμόσας ἐν τῷ θυσιαστηρίῳ ὀμνύει ἐν αὐτῷ καὶ ἐν πᾶσιν τοῖς ἐπάνω αὐτοῦ∙
Ho oun omosas en tō thysiastēriō omnyei en autō kai en pasin tois epanō autou;
Whoever swears by the temple swears by it and by the One who dwells there.
And whoso shall swear by the temple, sweareth by it, and by him that dwelleth therein.
καὶ ὁ ὀμόσας ἐν τῷ ναῷ ὀμνύει ἐν αὐτῷ καὶ ἐν τῷ κατοικήσαντι αὐτόν∙
kai ho omosas en tō naō omnyei en autō kai en tō katoikēsanti auton;
And whoever swears by heaven swears by the throne of God and by the One who sits upon it.
And he that shall swear by heaven, sweareth by the throne of God, and by him that sitteth thereon.
καὶ ὁ ὀμόσας ἐν τῷ οὐρανῷ ὀμνύει ἐν τῷ θρόνῳ τοῦ θεοῦ καὶ ἐν τῷ καθημένῳ ἐπάνω αὐτοῦ.
kai ho omosas en tō ouranō omnyei en tō thronō tou theou kai en tō kathēmenō epanō autou.
How terrible it will be for you, scribes and Pharisees—hypocrites! You carefully give a tenth of your mint, dill, and cumin, but you have neglected the weightier matters of the Law: justice, mercy, and faithfulness. You should have practiced these without neglecting the others.
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.
Οὐαὶ ὑμῖν, γραμματεῖς καὶ Φαρισαῖοι, ὑποκριταί, ὅτι ἀποδεκατοῦτε τὸ ἡδύοσμον καὶ τὸ ἄνηθον καὶ τὸ κύμινον, καὶ ἀφήκατε τὰ βαρύτερα τοῦ νόμου, τὴν κρίσιν καὶ τὸν ἔλεον καὶ τὴν πίστιν∙ ταῦτα ἔδει ποιῆσαι, κἀκεῖνα μὴ ἀφιέναι.
Ouai hymin, grammateis kai Pharisaioi, hypokritai, hoti apodekatoute to hēdyosmon kai to anēthon kai to kyminon, kai aphēkate ta barytera tou nomou, tēn krisin kai ton eleon kai tēn pistin; tauta edei poiēsai, kakeina mē aphienai.
Blind guides! You strain a gnat out of your drink but swallow a camel!
Ye blind guides, which strain at a gnat, and swallow a camel.
Ὁδηγοὶ τυφλοί, οἱ διϋλίζοντες τὸν κώνωπα, τὴν δὲ κάμηλον καταπίνοντες.
Hodēgoi typhloi, hoi diylizontes ton kōnōpa, tēn de kamēlon katapinontes.
How terrible it will be for you, scribes and Pharisees—hypocrites! You clean the outside of the cup and dish, while inside they are filled with robbery and injustice.
Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye make clean the outside of the cup and of the platter, but within they are full of extortion and excess.
Οὐαὶ ὑμῖν, γραμματεῖς καὶ Φαρισαῖοι, ὑποκριταί, ὅτι καθαρίζετε τὸ ἔξωθεν τοῦ ποτηρίου καὶ τῆς παροψίδος, ἔσωθεν δὲ γέμουσιν ἐξ ἁρπαγῆς καὶ ἀδικίας.
Ouai hymin, grammateis kai Pharisaioi, hypokritai, hoti katharizete to exōthen tou potēriou kai tēs paropsidos, esōthen de gemousin ex harpagēs kai adikias.
Blind Pharisee! First clean the inside of the cup and dish, so that the outside may become clean as well.
Thou blind Pharisee, cleanse first that which is within the cup and platter, that the outside of them may be clean also.
Φαρισαῖε τυφλέ, καθάρισον πρῶτον τὸ ἐντὸς τοῦ ποτηρίου καὶ τῆς παροψίδος, ἵνα γένηται καὶ τὸ ἐκτὸς αὐτῶν καθαρόν.
Pharisaie typhle, katharison prōton to entos tou potēriou kai tēs paropsidos, hina genētai kai to ektos autōn katharon.
How terrible it will be for you, scribes and Pharisees—hypocrites! You are like whitewashed tombs. They look beautiful on the outside, but inside they are filled with dead people’s bones and every kind of uncleanness.
Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye are like unto whited sepulchres, which indeed appear beautiful outward, but are within full of dead men’s bones, and of all uncleanness.
Οὐαὶ ὑμῖν, γραμματεῖς καὶ Φαρισαῖοι, ὑποκριταί, ὅτι παρομοιάζετε τάφοις κεκονιαμένοις, οἵτινες ἔξωθεν μὲν φαίνονται ὡραῖοι, ἔσωθεν δὲ γέμουσιν ὀστέων νεκρῶν καὶ πάσης ἀκαθαρσίας.
Ouai hymin, grammateis kai Pharisaioi, hypokritai, hoti paromoiazete taphois kekoniamenois, hoitines exōthen men phainontai hōraioi, esōthen de gemousin osteōn nekrōn kai pasēs akatharsias.
In the same way, you appear righteous to people on the outside, but inside you are filled with hypocrisy and lawlessness.
Even so ye also outwardly appear righteous unto men, but within ye are full of hypocrisy and iniquity.
Οὕτως καὶ ὑμεῖς ἔξωθεν μὲν φαίνεσθε τοῖς ἀνθρώποις δίκαιοι, ἔσωθεν δὲ μεστοί ἐστε ὑποκρίσεως καὶ ἀνομίας.
Houtōs kai hymeis exōthen men phainesthe tois anthrōpois dikaioi, esōthen de mestoi este hypokriseōs kai anomias.
How terrible it will be for you, scribes and Pharisees—hypocrites! You build the tombs of the prophets and decorate the memorials of the righteous.
Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because ye build the tombs of the prophets, and garnish the sepulchres of the righteous,
Οὐαὶ ὑμῖν, γραμματεῖς καὶ Φαρισαῖοι, ὑποκριταί, ὅτι οἰκοδομεῖτε τοὺς τάφους τῶν προφητῶν, καὶ κοσμεῖτε τὰ μνημεῖα τῶν δικαίων,
Ouai hymin, grammateis kai Pharisaioi, hypokritai, hoti oikodomeite tous taphous tōn prophētōn, kai kosmeite ta mnēmeia tōn dikaiōn,
You say, ‘If we had lived in the days of our ancestors, we would never have joined them in shedding the blood of the prophets.’
And say, If we had been in the days of our fathers, we would not have been partakers with them in the blood of the prophets.
καὶ λέγετε, Εἰ ἦμεν ἐν ταῖς ἡμέραις τῶν πατέρων ἡμῶν, οὐκ ἂν ἦμεν κοινωνοὶ αὐτῶν ἐν τῷ αἵματι τῶν προφητῶν.
kai legete, Ei ēmen en tais hēmerais tōn paterōn hēmōn, ouk an ēmen koinōnoi autōn en tō haimati tōn prophētōn.
By saying this, you testify against yourselves that you are descendants of those who murdered the prophets.
Wherefore ye be witnesses unto yourselves, that ye are the children of them which killed the prophets.
Ὥστε μαρτυρεῖτε ἑαυτοῖς ὅτι υἱοί ἐστε τῶν φονευσάντων τοὺς προφήτας∙
Hōste martyreite heautois hoti huioi este tōn phoneusantōn tous prophētas;
Go ahead, then, and fill up the measure of your ancestors!
Fill ye up then the measure of your fathers.
καὶ ὑμεῖς πληρώσατε τὸ μέτρον τῶν πατέρων ὑμῶν.
kai hymeis plērōsate to metron tōn paterōn hymōn.
Serpents! Offspring of vipers! How will you escape the judgment of hell?
Ye serpents, ye generation of vipers, how can ye escape the damnation of hell?
Ὄφεις, γεννήματα ἐχιδνῶν, πῶς φύγητε ἀπὸ τῆς κρίσεως τῆς γεέννης;
Opheis, gennēmata echidnōn, pōs phygēte apo tēs kriseōs tēs geennēs?
That is why I am sending you prophets, wise men, and scribes. Some of them you will kill and crucify. Others you will whip in your synagogues and persecute from city to city.
¶ Wherefore, behold, I send unto you prophets, and wise men, and scribes: and some of them ye shall kill and crucify; and some of them shall ye scourge in your synagogues, and persecute them from city to city:
Διὰ τοῦτο, ἰδού, ἐγὼ ἀποστέλλω πρὸς ὑμᾶς προφήτας καὶ σοφοὺς καὶ γραμματεῖς∙ καὶ ἐξ αὐτῶν ἀποκτενεῖτε καὶ σταυρώσετε, καὶ ἐξ αὐτῶν μαστιγώσετε ἐν ταῖς συναγωγαῖς ὑμῶν καὶ διώξετε ἀπὸ πόλεως εἰς πόλιν∙
Dia touto, idou, egō apostellō pros hymas prophētas kai sophous kai grammateis; kai ex autōn apokteneite kai staurōsete, kai ex autōn mastigōsete en tais synagōgais hymōn kai diōxete apo poleōs eis polin;
As a result, you will bear responsibility for all the righteous blood shed upon the earth—from the blood of righteous Abel to the blood of Zechariah son of Berechiah, whom you murdered between the temple and the altar.
That upon you may come all the righteous blood shed upon the earth, from the blood of righteous Abel unto the blood of Zacharias son of Barachias, whom ye slew between the temple and the altar.
ὅπως ἔλθῃ ἐφ’ ὑμᾶς πᾶν αἷμα δίκαιον ἐκχυνόμενον ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς, ἀπὸ τοῦ αἵματος Ἄβελ τοῦ δικαίου ἕως τοῦ αἵματος Ζαχαρίου υἱοῦ Βαραχίου, ὃν ἐφονεύσατε μεταξὺ τοῦ ναοῦ καὶ τοῦ θυσιαστηρίου.
hopōs elthē eph’ hymas pan haima dikaion ekchynomenon epi tēs gēs, apo tou haimatos Abel tou dikaiou heōs tou haimatos Zachariou huiou Barachiou, hon ephoneusate metaxy tou naou kai tou thysiastēriou.
I tell you the truth: all these things will come upon this generation.
Verily I say unto you, All these things shall come upon this generation.
Ἀμὴν λέγω ὑμῖν ὅτι ἥξει πάντα ταῦτα ἐπὶ τὴν γενεὰν ταύτην.
Amēn legō hymin hoti hēxei panta tauta epi tēn genean tautēn.
“Jerusalem, Jerusalem—the city that kills the prophets and stones those sent to her! How often I wanted to gather your children together, the way a hen gathers her chicks under her wings, but you were unwilling.
O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou that killest the prophets, and stonest them which are sent unto thee, how often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, and ye would not!
Ἱερουσαλήμ, Ἱερουσαλήμ, ἡ ἀποκτένουσα τοὺς προφήτας καὶ λιθοβολοῦσα τοὺς ἀπεσταλμένους πρὸς αὐτήν, ποσάκις ἠθέλησα ἐπισυναγαγεῖν τὰ τέκνα σου, ὃν τρόπον ἐπισυνάγει ὄρνις τὰ νοσσία ἑαυτῆς ὑπὸ τὰς πτέρυγας, καὶ οὐκ ἠθελήσατε.
Hierousalēm, Hierousalēm, hē apoktenousa tous prophētas kai lithobolousa tous apestalmenous pros autēn, posakis ēthelēsa episynagagein ta tekna sou, hon tropon episynagei ornis ta nossia heautēs hypo tas pterygas, kai ouk ēthelēsate.
Look—your house is being left to you desolate.
Behold, your house is left unto you desolate.
Ἰδού, ἀφίεται ὑμῖν ὁ οἶκος ὑμῶν ἔρημος.
Idou, aphietai hymin ho oikos hymōn erēmos.
For I tell you, you will not see Me again until you say:
‘Blessed is the One who comes
in the name of the Lord.’”
For I say unto you, Ye shall not see me henceforth, till ye shall say, Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord.
Λέγω γὰρ ὑμῖν, οὐ μή με ἴδητε ἀπ’ ἄρτι ἕως ἂν εἴπητε, Εὐλογημένος ὁ ἐρχόμενος ἐν ὀνόματι κυρίου.
Legō gar hymin, ou mē me idēte ap’ arti heōs an eipēte, Eulogēmenos ho erchomenos en onomati kyriou.
