Lukas 20:45-47

Orthodox Jewish Bible

⁴⁵ In the hearing of all the people, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach said to his talmidim,

⁴⁶ Beware of the Sofrim (Rabbonim), the ones wanting to strut around in long kaftans and loving [obsequious] Birkat Shalom greetings in the marketplaces and the rashei hamoshavot (chief seats) in the shuls and the places of kavod at seudos tishen,

⁴⁷ Which devour the batim (houses) of the almanot (widows) and for the sake of appearance daven lengthy tefillos (prayers): the same shall receive greater damnation.
