Woe to you who are satisfied now, because you will be hungry. Woe, you who laugh now, because you will mourn and weep.
Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! For if the miracles that were done in you had been done in Tyre and Sidon, they would have repented long ago, sitting in sackcloth and ashes!
"But woe to you, Pharisees, because you pay a tenth of mint and rue and every garden herb, and neglect justice and love for God! But it was necessary to do these [things] without neglecting those things also.
Woe to you, Pharisees, because you love the best seat in the synagogues and the greetings in the marketplaces!
Woe to you, because you are like unmarked graves, and the people who walk over [them] do not know [it]!
So he said, "Woe to you also, legal experts, because you load people [with] burdens hard to bear, and [you] yourselves do not touch the burdens with one of your fingers!
Woe to you, because you build the tombs of the prophets, and your fathers killed them!
Woe to you, legal experts, because you have taken away the key to knowledge! You did not enter yourselves, and you hindered those who were entering!"
