* Ye blind guides , which strain at (5723 ) a gnat , and swallow (5723 ) a camel . * Woe unto you , scribes and Pharisees , hypocrites ! for ye make clean (5719 ) the outside of the cup and of the platter , but within they are full (5719 ) of extortion and excess . * Thou blind Pharisee , cleanse (5657 ) first that which is within the cup and platter , that the outside of them may be (5638 ) clean also . * Woe unto you , scribes and Pharisees , hypocrites ! for ye are like (5719 ) unto whited (5772 ) sepulchres , which indeed appear (5727 ) beautiful outward , but are within full (5719 ) of dead mens bones , and of all uncleanness . * Even so ye also outwardly appear (5743 ) righteous unto men , but within ye are (5748 ) full of hypocrisy and iniquity . * Woe unto you , scribes and Pharisees , hypocrites ! because ye build (5719 ) the tombs of the prophets , and garnish (5719 ) the sepulchres of the righteous , * And say (5719 ), If we had been (5713 ) in the days of our fathers , we would not have been (5713 ) partakers with them in the blood of the prophets . * Wherefore ye be witnesses (5719 ) unto yourselves , that ye are (5748 ) the children of them which killed (5660 ) the prophets . * Fill ye up (5657 ) then the measure of your fathers . * Ye serpents , ye generation of vipers , how can ye (5632 ) escape the damnation of hell ? * Wherefore , behold (5628 ), I send (5719 ) unto you prophets , and wise men , and scribes : and some of them ye shall kill (5692 ) and crucify (5692 ); and some of them shall ye scourge (5692 ) in your synagogues , and persecute (5692 ) them from city to city : * That upon you may come (5632 ) all the righteous blood shed (5746 ) upon the earth , from the blood of righteous Abel unto the blood of Zacharias son of Barachias , whom ye slew (5656 ) between the temple and the altar . * Verily I say (5719 ) unto you , All these things shall come (5692 ) upon this generation .
