Matthew 23:13-15

13“1But woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites, 2because you shut off the kingdom of heaven 3from 4people; for you do not enter in yourselves, nor do you allow those who are entering to go in. 14[5Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites, because 6you devour widows’ houses, and for a pretense you make long prayers; therefore you will receive greater condemnation.]

15“Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites, because you travel around on sea and land to make one 78proselyte; and when he becomes one, you make him twice as much a son of 910hell as yourselves.
