Matthew 23:21 DBY

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

²⁰  He therefore that swears by the altar swears by it and by all things that are upon it.

²¹  And he that swears by the temple swears by it and by him that dwells in it.

²²  And he that swears by heaven swears by the throne of God and by him that sits upon it.

²³  Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites, for ye pay tithes of mint and anise and cummin, and ye have left aside the weightier matters of the law, judgment and mercy and faith: these ye ought to have done and not have left those aside.
