Matthew 23:17 DBY

¹⁵  Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites, for ye compass the sea and the dry [land] to make one proselyte, and when he is become [such], ye make him twofold more [the] son of hell than yourselves.

¹⁶  Woe to you, blind guides, who say, Whosoever shall swear by the temple, it is nothing; but whosoever shall swear by the gold of the temple, he is a debtor.

¹⁷  Fools and blind, for which is greater, the gold, or the temple which sanctifies the gold?

¹⁸  And, Whosoever shall swear by the altar, it is nothing; but whosoever shall swear by the gift that is upon it is a debtor.

¹⁹  [Fools and] blind ones, for which is greater, the gift, or the altar which sanctifies the gift?
