主训人的祷告

11 耶稣在一个地方祷告,祷告完了,有个门徒对他说:“求主教导我们祷告,像约翰教导他的门徒。” 耶稣说:“你们祷告的时候,要说:‘我们在天上的父[a],愿人都尊你的名为圣,愿你的国降临,愿你的旨意行在地上,如同行在天上[b] 我们日用的饮食,天天赐给我们。 赦免我们的罪,因为我们也赦免凡亏欠我们的人。不叫我们遇见试探,救我们脱离凶恶。[c]’”

求则得之

耶稣又说:“你们中间谁有一个朋友半夜到他那里去,说:‘朋友,请借给我三个饼, 因为我有一个朋友行路,来到我这里,我没有什么给他摆上。’ 那人在里面回答说:‘不要搅扰我,门已经关闭,孩子们也同我在床上了,我不能起来给你。’ 我告诉你们:虽不因他是朋友起来给他,但因他情词迫切地直求,就必起来照他所需用的给他。 我又告诉你们:你们祈求,就给你们;寻找,就寻见;叩门,就给你们开门。 10 因为凡祈求的,就得着;寻找的,就寻见;叩门的,就给他开门。 11 你们中间做父亲的,谁有儿子求饼,反给他石头呢?求鱼,反拿蛇当鱼给他呢? 12 求鸡蛋,反给他蝎子呢? 13 你们虽然不好,尚且知道拿好东西给儿女,何况天父,岂不更将圣灵给求他的人吗?”

驳倒犹太人的谗言

14 耶稣赶出一个叫人哑巴的鬼,鬼出去了,哑巴就说出话来。众人都稀奇, 15 内中却有人说:“他是靠着鬼王别西卜赶鬼。” 16 又有人试探耶稣,向他求从天上来的神迹。 17 他晓得他们的意念,便对他们说:“凡一国自相纷争,就成为荒场;凡一家自相纷争,就必败落。 18 撒旦自相纷争,他的国怎能站得住呢?因为你们说我是靠着别西卜赶鬼。 19 我若靠着别西卜赶鬼,你们的子弟赶鬼又靠着谁呢?这样,他们就要断定你们的是非。 20 我若靠着神的能力赶鬼,这就是神的国临到你们了。 21 壮士披挂整齐看守自己的住宅,他所有的都平安无事。 22 但有一个比他更壮的来,胜过他,就夺去他所倚靠的盔甲兵器,又分了他的赃。 23 不与我相合的,就是敌我的;不同我收聚的,就是分散的。 24 污鬼离了人身,就在无水之地过来过去,寻求安歇之处,既寻不着,便说:‘我要回到我所出来的屋里去。’ 25 到了,就看见里面打扫干净,修饰好了, 26 便去另带了七个比自己更恶的鬼来,都进去住在那里。那人末后的景况比先前更不好了。”

27 耶稣正说这话的时候,众人中间有一个女人大声说:“怀你胎的和乳养你的有福了!” 28 耶稣说:“是,却还不如听神之道而遵守的人有福!”

求神迹的受责备

29 当众人聚集的时候,耶稣开讲说:“这世代是一个邪恶的世代,他们求看神迹,除了约拿的神迹以外,再没有神迹给他们看。 30 约拿怎样为尼尼微人成了神迹,人子也要照样为这世代的人成了神迹。 31 当审判的时候,南方的女王要起来定这世代的罪,因为她从地极而来,要听所罗门的智慧话。看哪,在这里有一人比所罗门更大! 32 当审判的时候,尼尼微人要起来定这世代的罪,因为尼尼微人听了约拿所传的就悔改了。看哪,在这里有一人比约拿更大!

论心里的光

33 “没有人点灯放在地窨子里或是斗底下,总是放在灯台上,使进来的人得见亮光。 34 你眼睛就是身上的灯。你的眼睛若了亮,全身就光明;眼睛若昏花,全身就黑暗。 35 所以,你要省察,恐怕你里头的光或者黑暗了。 36 若是你全身光明,毫无黑暗,就必全然光明,如同灯的明光照亮你。”

37 说话的时候,有一个法利赛人请耶稣同他吃饭,耶稣就进去坐席。 38 这法利赛人看见耶稣饭前不洗手便诧异。 39 主对他说:“如今你们法利赛人洗净杯盘的外面,你们里面却满了勒索和邪恶。 40 无知的人哪,造外面的,不也造里面吗? 41 只要把里面的施舍给人,凡物于你们就都洁净了。

述说法利赛人六祸

42 “你们法利赛人有祸了!因为你们将薄荷、芸香并各样菜蔬献上十分之一,那公义和爱神的事反倒不行了。这原是你们当行的,那也是不可不行的。 43 你们法利赛人有祸了!因为你们喜爱会堂里的首位,又喜爱人在街市上问你们的安。 44 你们有祸了!因为你们如同不显露的坟墓,走在上面的人并不知道。”

45 律法师中有一个回答耶稣说:“夫子,你这样说也把我们糟蹋了!” 46 耶稣说:“你们律法师也有祸了!因为你们把难担的担子放在人身上,自己一个指头却不肯动。 47 你们有祸了!因为你们修造先知的坟墓,那先知正是你们的祖宗所杀的。 48 可见你们祖宗所做的事,你们又证明又喜欢;因为他们杀了先知,你们修造先知的坟墓。 49 所以神用智慧[d]曾说:‘我要差遣先知和使徒到他们那里去,有的他们要杀害,有的他们要逼迫。’ 50 使创世以来所流众先知血的罪,都要问在这世代的人身上, 51 就是从亚伯的血起,直到被杀在坛和殿中间撒迦利亚的血为止。我实在告诉你们:这都要问在这世代的人身上。 52 你们律法师有祸了!因为你们把知识的钥匙夺了去,自己不进去,正要进去的人你们也阻挡他们。”

53 耶稣从那里出来,文士和法利赛人就极力地催逼他,引动他多说话, 54 私下窥听,要拿他的话柄。

Jesús y la oración

(Mt. 6.9-15; 7.7-11)

11 Aconteció que estaba Jesús orando en un lugar, y cuando terminó, uno de sus discípulos le dijo: Señor, enséñanos a orar, como también Juan enseñó a sus discípulos. Y les dijo: Cuando oréis, decid: Padre nuestro que estás en los cielos, santificado sea tu nombre. Venga tu reino. Hágase tu voluntad, como en el cielo, así también en la tierra. El pan nuestro de cada día, dánoslo hoy. Y perdónanos nuestros pecados, porque también nosotros perdonamos a todos los que nos deben. Y no nos metas en tentación, mas líbranos del mal.

Les dijo también: ¿Quién de vosotros que tenga un amigo, va a él a medianoche y le dice: Amigo, préstame tres panes, porque un amigo mío ha venido a mí de viaje, y no tengo qué ponerle delante; y aquel, respondiendo desde adentro, le dice: No me molestes; la puerta ya está cerrada, y mis niños están conmigo en cama; no puedo levantarme, y dártelos? Os digo, que aunque no se levante a dárselos por ser su amigo, sin embargo por su importunidad se levantará y le dará todo lo que necesite. Y yo os digo: Pedid, y se os dará; buscad, y hallaréis; llamad, y se os abrirá. 10 Porque todo aquel que pide, recibe; y el que busca, halla; y al que llama, se le abrirá. 11 ¿Qué padre de vosotros, si su hijo le pide pan, le dará una piedra? ¿o si pescado, en lugar de pescado, le dará una serpiente? 12 ¿O si le pide un huevo, le dará un escorpión? 13 Pues si vosotros, siendo malos, sabéis dar buenas dádivas a vuestros hijos, ¿cuánto más vuestro Padre celestial dará el Espíritu Santo a los que se lo pidan?

Una casa dividida contra sí misma

(Mt. 12.22-30; Mr. 3.20-27)

14 Estaba Jesús echando fuera un demonio, que era mudo; y aconteció que salido el demonio, el mudo habló; y la gente se maravilló. 15 Pero algunos de ellos decían: Por Beelzebú, príncipe de los demonios, echa fuera los demonios.(A) 16 Otros, para tentarle, le pedían señal del cielo.(B) 17 Mas él, conociendo los pensamientos de ellos, les dijo: Todo reino dividido contra sí mismo, es asolado; y una casa dividida contra sí misma, cae. 18 Y si también Satanás está dividido contra sí mismo, ¿cómo permanecerá su reino? ya que decís que por Beelzebú echo yo fuera los demonios. 19 Pues si yo echo fuera los demonios por Beelzebú, ¿vuestros hijos por quién los echan? Por tanto, ellos serán vuestros jueces. 20 Mas si por el dedo de Dios echo yo fuera los demonios, ciertamente el reino de Dios ha llegado a vosotros. 21 Cuando el hombre fuerte armado guarda su palacio, en paz está lo que posee. 22 Pero cuando viene otro más fuerte que él y le vence, le quita todas sus armas en que confiaba, y reparte el botín. 23 El que no es conmigo, contra mí es;(C) y el que conmigo no recoge, desparrama.

El espíritu inmundo que vuelve

(Mt. 12.43-45)

24 Cuando el espíritu inmundo sale del hombre, anda por lugares secos, buscando reposo; y no hallándolo, dice: Volveré a mi casa de donde salí. 25 Y cuando llega, la halla barrida y adornada. 26 Entonces va, y toma otros siete espíritus peores que él; y entrados, moran allí; y el postrer estado de aquel hombre viene a ser peor que el primero.

Los que en verdad son bienaventurados

27 Mientras él decía estas cosas, una mujer de entre la multitud levantó la voz y le dijo: Bienaventurado el vientre que te trajo, y los senos que mamaste. 28 Y él dijo: Antes bienaventurados los que oyen la palabra de Dios, y la guardan.

La generación perversa demanda señal

(Mt. 12.38-42)

29 Y apiñándose las multitudes, comenzó a decir: Esta generación es mala; demanda señal,(D) pero señal no le será dada, sino la señal de Jonás. 30 Porque así como Jonás fue señal a los ninivitas,(E) también lo será el Hijo del Hombre a esta generación. 31 La reina del Sur se levantará en el juicio con los hombres de esta generación, y los condenará; porque ella vino de los fines de la tierra para oír la sabiduría de Salomón,(F) y he aquí más que Salomón en este lugar. 32 Los hombres de Nínive se levantarán en el juicio con esta generación, y la condenarán; porque a la predicación de Jonás se arrepintieron,(G) y he aquí más que Jonás en este lugar.

La lámpara del cuerpo

(Mt. 6.22-23)

33 Nadie pone en oculto la luz encendida, ni debajo del almud, sino en el candelero,(H) para que los que entran vean la luz. 34 La lámpara del cuerpo es el ojo; cuando tu ojo es bueno, también todo tu cuerpo está lleno de luz; pero cuando tu ojo es maligno, también tu cuerpo está en tinieblas. 35 Mira pues, no suceda que la luz que en ti hay, sea tinieblas. 36 Así que, si todo tu cuerpo está lleno de luz, no teniendo parte alguna de tinieblas, será todo luminoso, como cuando una lámpara te alumbra con su resplandor.

Jesús acusa a fariseos y a intérpretes de la ley

(Mt. 23.1-36; Mr. 12.38-40; Lc. 20.45-47)

37 Luego que hubo hablado, le rogó un fariseo que comiese con él; y entrando Jesús en la casa, se sentó a la mesa. 38 El fariseo, cuando lo vio, se extrañó de que no se hubiese lavado antes de comer. 39 Pero el Señor le dijo: Ahora bien, vosotros los fariseos limpiáis lo de fuera del vaso y del plato, pero por dentro estáis llenos de rapacidad y de maldad. 40 Necios, ¿el que hizo lo de fuera, no hizo también lo de adentro? 41 Pero dad limosna de lo que tenéis, y entonces todo os será limpio.

42 Mas ¡ay de vosotros, fariseos! que diezmáis la menta, y la ruda, y toda hortaliza,(I) y pasáis por alto la justicia y el amor de Dios. Esto os era necesario hacer, sin dejar aquello. 43 ¡Ay de vosotros, fariseos! que amáis las primeras sillas en las sinagogas, y las salutaciones en las plazas. 44 ¡Ay de vosotros, escribas y fariseos, hipócritas! que sois como sepulcros que no se ven, y los hombres que andan encima no lo saben.

45 Respondiendo uno de los intérpretes de la ley, le dijo: Maestro, cuando dices esto, también nos afrentas a nosotros. 46 Y él dijo: ¡Ay de vosotros también, intérpretes de la ley! porque cargáis a los hombres con cargas que no pueden llevar, pero vosotros ni aun con un dedo las tocáis. 47 ¡Ay de vosotros, que edificáis los sepulcros de los profetas a quienes mataron vuestros padres! 48 De modo que sois testigos y consentidores de los hechos de vuestros padres; porque a la verdad ellos los mataron, y vosotros edificáis sus sepulcros. 49 Por eso la sabiduría de Dios también dijo: Les enviaré profetas y apóstoles; y de ellos, a unos matarán y a otros perseguirán, 50 para que se demande de esta generación la sangre de todos los profetas que se ha derramado desde la fundación del mundo, 51 desde la sangre de Abel(J) hasta la sangre de Zacarías,(K) que murió entre el altar y el templo; sí, os digo que será demandada de esta generación. 52 ¡Ay de vosotros, intérpretes de la ley! porque habéis quitado la llave de la ciencia; vosotros mismos no entrasteis, y a los que entraban se lo impedisteis.

53 Diciéndoles él estas cosas, los escribas y los fariseos comenzaron a estrecharle en gran manera, y a provocarle a que hablase de muchas cosas; 54 acechándole, y procurando cazar alguna palabra de su boca para acusarle.

11 And it came to pass, that, as he was praying in a certain place, when he ceased, one of his disciples said unto him, Lord, teach us to pray, as John also taught his disciples.

And he said unto them, When ye pray, say, Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done, as in heaven, so in earth.

Give us day by day our daily bread.

And forgive us our sins; for we also forgive every one that is indebted to us. And lead us not into temptation; but deliver us from evil.

And he said unto them, Which of you shall have a friend, and shall go unto him at midnight, and say unto him, Friend, lend me three loaves;

For a friend of mine in his journey is come to me, and I have nothing to set before him?

And he from within shall answer and say, Trouble me not: the door is now shut, and my children are with me in bed; I cannot rise and give thee.

I say unto you, Though he will not rise and give him, because he is his friend, yet because of his importunity he will rise and give him as many as he needeth.

And I say unto you, Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you.

10 For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.

11 If a son shall ask bread of any of you that is a father, will he give him a stone? or if he ask a fish, will he for a fish give him a serpent?

12 Or if he shall ask an egg, will he offer him a scorpion?

13 If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children: how much more shall your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him?

14 And he was casting out a devil, and it was dumb. And it came to pass, when the devil was gone out, the dumb spake; and the people wondered.

15 But some of them said, He casteth out devils through Beelzebub the chief of the devils.

16 And others, tempting him, sought of him a sign from heaven.

17 But he, knowing their thoughts, said unto them, Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation; and a house divided against a house falleth.

18 If Satan also be divided against himself, how shall his kingdom stand? because ye say that I cast out devils through Beelzebub.

19 And if I by Beelzebub cast out devils, by whom do your sons cast them out? therefore shall they be your judges.

20 But if I with the finger of God cast out devils, no doubt the kingdom of God is come upon you.

21 When a strong man armed keepeth his palace, his goods are in peace:

22 But when a stronger than he shall come upon him, and overcome him, he taketh from him all his armour wherein he trusted, and divideth his spoils.

23 He that is not with me is against me: and he that gathereth not with me scattereth.

24 When the unclean spirit is gone out of a man, he walketh through dry places, seeking rest; and finding none, he saith, I will return unto my house whence I came out.

25 And when he cometh, he findeth it swept and garnished.

26 Then goeth he, and taketh to him seven other spirits more wicked than himself; and they enter in, and dwell there: and the last state of that man is worse than the first.

27 And it came to pass, as he spake these things, a certain woman of the company lifted up her voice, and said unto him, Blessed is the womb that bare thee, and the paps which thou hast sucked.

28 But he said, Yea rather, blessed are they that hear the word of God, and keep it.

29 And when the people were gathered thick together, he began to say, This is an evil generation: they seek a sign; and there shall no sign be given it, but the sign of Jonas the prophet.

30 For as Jonas was a sign unto the Ninevites, so shall also the Son of man be to this generation.

31 The queen of the south shall rise up in the judgment with the men of this generation, and condemn them: for she came from the utmost parts of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and, behold, a greater than Solomon is here.

32 The men of Nineve shall rise up in the judgment with this generation, and shall condemn it: for they repented at the preaching of Jonas; and, behold, a greater than Jonas is here.

33 No man, when he hath lighted a candle, putteth it in a secret place, neither under a bushel, but on a candlestick, that they which come in may see the light.

34 The light of the body is the eye: therefore when thine eye is single, thy whole body also is full of light; but when thine eye is evil, thy body also is full of darkness.

35 Take heed therefore that the light which is in thee be not darkness.

36 If thy whole body therefore be full of light, having no part dark, the whole shall be full of light, as when the bright shining of a candle doth give thee light.

37 And as he spake, a certain Pharisee besought him to dine with him: and he went in, and sat down to meat.

38 And when the Pharisee saw it, he marvelled that he had not first washed before dinner.

39 And the Lord said unto him, Now do ye Pharisees make clean the outside of the cup and the platter; but your inward part is full of ravening and wickedness.

40 Ye fools, did not he that made that which is without make that which is within also?

41 But rather give alms of such things as ye have; and, behold, all things are clean unto you.

42 But woe unto you, Pharisees! for ye tithe mint and rue and all manner of herbs, and pass over judgment and the love of God: these ought ye to have done, and not to leave the other undone.

43 Woe unto you, Pharisees! for ye love the uppermost seats in the synagogues, and greetings in the markets.

44 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye are as graves which appear not, and the men that walk over them are not aware of them.

45 Then answered one of the lawyers, and said unto him, Master, thus saying thou reproachest us also.

46 And he said, Woe unto you also, ye lawyers! for ye lade men with burdens grievous to be borne, and ye yourselves touch not the burdens with one of your fingers.

47 Woe unto you! for ye build the sepulchres of the prophets, and your fathers killed them.

48 Truly ye bear witness that ye allow the deeds of your fathers: for they indeed killed them, and ye build their sepulchres.

49 Therefore also said the wisdom of God, I will send them prophets and apostles, and some of them they shall slay and persecute:

50 That the blood of all the prophets, which was shed from the foundation of the world, may be required of this generation;

51 From the blood of Abel unto the blood of Zacharias which perished between the altar and the temple: verily I say unto you, It shall be required of this generation.

52 Woe unto you, lawyers! for ye have taken away the key of knowledge: ye entered not in yourselves, and them that were entering in ye hindered.

53 And as he said these things unto them, the scribes and the Pharisees began to urge him vehemently, and to provoke him to speak of many things:

54 Laying wait for him, and seeking to catch something out of his mouth, that they might accuse him.

The Model Prayer(A)

11 Now it came to pass, as He was praying in a certain place, when He ceased, that one of His disciples said to Him, “Lord, teach us to pray, as John also taught his disciples.”

So He said to them, “When you pray, say:

(B)Our[a] Father [b]in heaven,
Hallowed be Your name.
Your kingdom come.
[c]Your will be done
On earth as it is in heaven.
Give us day by day our daily bread.
And (C)forgive us our sins,
For we also forgive everyone who is indebted to us.
And do not lead us into temptation,
[d]But deliver us from the evil one.”

A Friend Comes at Midnight

And He said to them, “Which of you shall have a friend, and go to him at midnight and say to him, ‘Friend, lend me three loaves; for a friend of mine has come to me on his journey, and I have nothing to set before him’; and he will answer from within and say, ‘Do not trouble me; the door is now shut, and my children are with me in bed; I cannot rise and give to you’? I say to you, (D)though he will not rise and give to him because he is his friend, yet because of his persistence he will rise and give him as many as he needs.

Keep Asking, Seeking, Knocking(E)

(F)“So I say to you, ask, and it will be given to you; (G)seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. 10 For everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened. 11 (H)If a son asks for [e]bread from any father among you, will he give him a stone? Or if he asks for a fish, will he give him a serpent instead of a fish? 12 Or if he asks for an egg, will he offer him a scorpion? 13 If you then, being evil, know how to give (I)good gifts to your children, how much more will your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask Him!”

A House Divided Cannot Stand(J)

14 (K)And He was casting out a demon, and it was mute. So it was, when the demon had gone out, that the mute spoke; and the multitudes marveled. 15 But some of them said, (L)“He casts out demons by [f]Beelzebub, the ruler of the demons.”

16 Others, testing Him, (M)sought from Him a sign from heaven. 17 (N)But (O)He, knowing their thoughts, said to them: “Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation, and a house divided against a house falls. 18 If Satan also is divided against himself, how will his kingdom stand? Because you say I cast out demons by Beelzebub. 19 And if I cast out demons by Beelzebub, by whom do your sons cast them out? Therefore they will be your judges. 20 But if I cast out demons (P)with the finger of God, surely the kingdom of God has come upon you. 21 (Q)When a strong man, fully armed, guards his own palace, his goods are in peace. 22 But (R)when a stronger than he comes upon him and overcomes him, he takes from him all his armor in which he trusted, and divides his [g]spoils. 23 (S)He who is not with Me is against Me, and he who does not gather with Me scatters.

An Unclean Spirit Returns(T)

24 (U)“When an unclean spirit goes out of a man, he goes through dry places, seeking rest; and finding none, he says, ‘I will return to my house from which I came.’ 25 And when he comes, he finds it swept and put in order. 26 Then he goes and takes with him seven other spirits more wicked than himself, and they enter and dwell there; and (V)the last state of that man is worse than the first.”

Keeping the Word

27 And it happened, as He spoke these things, that a certain woman from the crowd raised her voice and said to Him, (W)“Blessed is the womb that bore You, and the breasts which nursed You!”

28 But He said, (X)“More than that, blessed are those who hear the word of God and keep it!”

Seeking a Sign(Y)

29 (Z)And while the crowds were thickly gathered together, He began to say, “This is an evil generation. It seeks a (AA)sign, and no sign will be given to it except the sign of Jonah [h]the prophet. 30 For as (AB)Jonah became a sign to the Ninevites, so also the Son of Man will be to this generation. 31 (AC)The queen of the South will rise up in the judgment with the men of this generation and condemn them, for she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and indeed a (AD)greater than Solomon is here. 32 The men of Nineveh will rise up in the judgment with this generation and condemn it, for (AE)they repented at the preaching of Jonah; and indeed a greater than Jonah is here.

The Lamp of the Body(AF)

33 (AG)“No one, when he has lit a lamp, puts it in a secret place or under a (AH)basket, but on a lampstand, that those who come in may see the light. 34 (AI)The lamp of the body is the eye. Therefore, when your eye is [i]good, your whole body also is full of light. But when your eye is [j]bad, your body also is full of darkness. 35 Therefore take heed that the light which is in you is not darkness. 36 If then your whole body is full of light, having no part dark, the whole body will be full of light, as when the bright shining of a lamp gives you light.”

Woe to the Pharisees and Lawyers

37 And as He spoke, a certain Pharisee asked Him to dine with him. So He went in and sat down to eat. 38 (AJ)When the Pharisee saw it, he marveled that He had not first washed before dinner.

39 (AK)Then the Lord said to him, “Now you Pharisees make the outside of the cup and dish clean, but (AL)your inward part is full of [k]greed and wickedness. 40 Foolish ones! Did not (AM)He who made the outside make the inside also? 41 (AN)But rather give alms of [l]such things as you have; then indeed all things are clean to you.

42 (AO)“But woe to you Pharisees! For you tithe mint and rue and all manner of herbs, and (AP)pass by justice and the (AQ)love of God. These you ought to have done, without leaving the others undone. 43 (AR)Woe to you Pharisees! For you love the [m]best seats in the synagogues and greetings in the marketplaces. 44 (AS)Woe to you, [n]scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! (AT)For you are like graves which are not seen, and the men who walk over them are not aware of them.

45 Then one of the lawyers answered and said to Him, “Teacher, by saying these things You reproach us also.”

46 And He said, “Woe to you also, lawyers! (AU)For you load men with burdens hard to bear, and you yourselves do not touch the burdens with one of your fingers. 47 (AV)Woe to you! For you build the tombs of the prophets, and your fathers killed them. 48 In fact, you bear witness that you approve the deeds of your fathers; for they indeed killed them, and you build their tombs. 49 Therefore the wisdom of God also said, (AW)‘I will send them prophets and apostles, and some of them they will kill and persecute,’ 50 that the blood of all the prophets which was shed from the foundation of the world may be required of this generation, 51 (AX)from the blood of Abel to (AY)the blood of Zechariah who perished between the altar and the temple. Yes, I say to you, it shall be required of this generation.

52 (AZ)“Woe to you lawyers! For you have taken away the key of knowledge. You did not enter in yourselves, and those who were entering in you hindered.”

53 [o]And as He said these things to them, the scribes and the Pharisees began to assail Him vehemently, and to cross-examine Him about many things, 54 lying in wait for Him, [p]and (BA)seeking to catch Him in something He might say, [q]that they might accuse Him.
