Matthew 23:21-23

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

²¹ And whosoever shall swear by the temple, sweareth by it, and by him that dwelleth in it:

²² And he that sweareth by heaven, sweareth by the throne of God, and by him that sitteth thereon.

²³ Woe to you scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites; because you tithe mint, and anise, and cummin, and have left the weightier things of the law; judgment, and mercy, and faith. These things you ought to have done, and not to leave those undone.
