Matthew 23:16-18

Legacy Standard Bible

¹⁶ “Woe to you, ^(A)blind guides, who say, ‘^(B)Whoever swears by the ^[a]sanctuary, that is nothing; but whoever swears by the gold of the ^[b]sanctuary is obligated.’ ¹⁷ You fools and blind men! For ^(C)which is ^[c]more important, the gold or the sanctuary that sanctified the gold? ¹⁸ And, ‘Whoever swears by the altar, that is nothing, but whoever swears by the ^[d]offering on it, he is obligated.’
