Matthew 23:22-24

Living Bible

²² And when you swear ‘By heavens,’ you are swearing by the Throne of God and by God himself.

²³ “Yes, woe upon you, Pharisees, and you other religious leaders—hypocrites! For you tithe down to the last mint leaf in your garden, but ignore the important things—justice and mercy and faith. Yes, you should tithe, but you shouldn’t leave the more important things undone. ²⁴ Blind guides! You strain out a gnat and swallow a camel.
