Matthew 23:2-7

2sayingG3004, The scribesG1122 and the PhariseesG5330 sitG2523 on Moses’ seat:

3all thingsG3956 thereforeG3767 whatsoever they bid you, these do and observeG5083: but do not ye after their worksG2041; for they sayG3004, and do not.

4Yea, they bind heavy burdensG5413 and grievous to be borne, and lay them on men’sG444 shouldersG5606; but they themselves will not moveG2795 them with their fingerG1147.

5But all their worksG2041 they do to be seenG2300 of menG444: for they makeG4160 broad their phylacteries, and enlarge the borders of their garments,

6and loveG5368 the chief placeG4411 at feasts, and the chief seatsG4410 in the synagoguesG4864,

7and the salutations in the marketplaces, and to be calledG2564 of menG444, RabbiG4461.
