Matthew 23:2-12
2“TheG3588 scribesG1122 andG2532 PhariseesG5330 sitG2523 inG1909 MosesG3475’ seatG2515. 3SoG3767 practiceG4160 andG2532 observeG5083 everythingG3956G3745G1437 they tellG2036 youG4771. ButG1161 do notG3361 doG4160 whatG2596 theyG846 doG2041, forG1063 they do not practiceG3756G4160 whatG2532 they preachG3004. 4They tie upG1195 heavyG926, burdensomeG1419 loadsG54131 andG2532 layG2007 them onG1909 men’sG444 shouldersG5606, butG1161 they themselvesG846 are not willingG3756G2309 to lift a fingerG3588G846G1147 to moveG2795 themG846.
AllG3956 theirG846 deedsG2041 are doneG4160 forG4314 menG444 to seeG2300. They broadenG4115 theirG846 phylacteriesG5440 andG2532 lengthenG3170 theirG3588 tasselsG2899. 6They loveG5368 theG3588 places of honorG4411 atG1722 banquetsG1173, theG3588 chief seatsG4410 inG1722 theG3588 synagoguesG4864, 7theG3588 greetingsG783 inG1722 theG3588 marketplacesG58, andG2532 the titleG2564 of ‘RabbiG4461’ byG5259 which they are addressed.2
8ButG1161 youG4771 are not to be calledG3361G2564 ‘RabbiG4461,’ forG1063 youG4771 have oneG1520 TeacherG1320, andG1161 youG4771 areG1510 allG3956 brothersG80. 9AndG2532 do not call anyoneG2564G3361 onG1909 earthG1093 yourG4771 fatherG3962, forG1063 youG4771 have oneG1520 FatherG3962, whoG3588 is in heavenG3770. 10NorG3366 are you to be calledG2564 instructorsG2519, forG3754 youG4771 have oneG1520 InstructorG2519, theG3588 ChristG5547. 11TheG3588 greatestG3173 among youG4771 shall beG1510 yourG4771 servantG1249. 12ForG1161 whoeverG3748 exaltsG5312 himselfG1438 will be humbledG5013, andG2532 whoeverG3748 humblesG5013 himselfG1438 will be exaltedG5312.
