12AndG2532 whosoever shallG2532 exaltG5312 himselfG1438 shallG2532 beG2532 humbledG5013; andG2532 whosoever shallG2532 humbleG5013 himselfG1438 shallG2532 beG2532 exaltedG5312.

13ButG1161 woeG3759 unto youG5210, scribesG1122 andG2532 PhariseesG5330, hypocritesG5273! becauseG3754 ye shutG2808 theG3588 kingdomG932 ofG932 heavenG3772 againstG3756 menG444: forG1063 ye enterG1525 notG3756 inG2532 yourselvesG4771, neitherG3756 suffer ye themG863 thatG3754 are enteringG1525 inG2532 toG2532 enterG1525.
