³⁹ So the Lord Jesus said to him, ‘You Pharisees are like someone who only cleans the outside of his cup and his plate. You only clean the part that people can see. But inside, your mind is full of bad thoughts.^[a] You like to take things from other people. ⁴⁰ What fools you are! God made the inside of you as well as the outside. He knows all about you. ⁴¹ So be ready to give things to poor people. Then you will be really clean, on the inside as well as the outside.
