Matthew 23:12-14
New Matthew Bible
12 But whosoever exalts himself, shall be brought low. And he who humbles himself, shall be exalted.
13 Woe is to you scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you shut up the kingdom of heaven before men. You yourselves go not in, neither do you suffer those who come to enter in.
14 Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! You devour widows’ houses, and that under a colour of praying long prayers, for which you shall receive the greater damnation.
