Matthew 23:15-17

Disciples’ Literal New Testament

¹⁵ Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites, because you go-around the sea and the dry land to make one proselyte. And when he becomes one, you make him a son of Gehenna^[a] double-more than you. ¹⁶ Woe to you, blind guides— the ones saying, ‘Whoever swears-an-oath by the temple, it is nothing. But whoever swears-an-oath by the gold of the temple, he is obligated’. ¹⁷ Foolish and blind ones! For which is greater, the gold, or the temple having sanctified^[b] the gold?
