Luke 11:37-53
Holman Christian Standard Bible
Religious Hypocrisy Denounced
37 As He was speaking, a Pharisee(A) asked Him to dine with him. So He went in and reclined at the table. 38 When the Pharisee saw this, he was amazed that He did not first perform the ritual washing[a](B) before dinner.(C) 39 But the Lord said to him: “Now you Pharisees clean the outside of the cup and dish, but inside you are full of greed(D) and evil.(E) 40 Fools!(F) Didn’t He who made the outside make the inside too? 41 But give from what is within to the poor,[b](G) and then everything is clean(H) for you.
42 “But woe(I) to you Pharisees! You give a tenth[c](J) of mint, rue, and every kind of herb, and you bypass[d] justice(K) and love for God.[e](L) These things you should have done without neglecting the others.
43 “Woe to you Pharisees! You love the front seat(M) in the synagogues(N) and greetings in the marketplaces.
44 “Woe to you![f] You are like unmarked graves;(O) the people who walk over them don’t know it.”
45 One of the experts in the law(P) answered Him, “Teacher, when You say these things You insult us too.”
46 Then He said: “Woe also to you experts in the law! You load people with burdens(Q) that are hard to carry, yet you yourselves don’t touch these burdens with one of your fingers.(R)
47 “Woe to you! You build monuments[g] to the prophets,(S) and your fathers killed(T) them. 48 Therefore, you are witnesses(U) that you approve[h](V) the deeds of your fathers, for they killed them, and you build their monuments.[i] 49 Because of this, the wisdom of God(W) said, ‘I will send them prophets and apostles,(X) and some of them they will kill and persecute,’(Y) 50 so that this generation(Z) may be held responsible for the blood of all the prophets shed since the foundation of the world[j](AA)— 51 from the blood of Abel(AB) to the blood of Zechariah,(AC) who perished between the altar and the sanctuary.
“Yes, I tell you, this generation will be held responsible.[k]
52 “Woe to you experts in the law! You have taken away the key of knowledge!(AD) You didn’t go in yourselves, and you hindered(AE) those who were going in.”
53 When He left there,[l] the scribes and the Pharisees began to oppose(AF) Him fiercely and to cross-examine Him about many things;

37 When en · de · ho Jesus finished speaking laleō, a Pharisee Pharisaios asked erōtaō him autos to hopōs have a meal aristaō with para him autos, so de he went eiserchomai in and reclined anapiptō at table . 38 The ho · de Pharisee Pharisaios was surprised thaumazō when he observed that hoti Jesus did baptizō not ou wash baptizō first prōton, before pro the ho meal ariston. 39 The ho Lord kyrios said legō · de to pros him autos, “ Now nyn you hymeis · ho Pharisees Pharisaios cleanse katharizō the ho outside exōthen of the ho cup potērion and kai of the ho dish pinax; but de the ho inside esōthen of you hymeis is full gemō of greed harpagē and kai wickedness ponēria. 40 Fools aphrōn! Did not ou he ho who made poieō the ho outside exōthen make poieō the ho inside esōthen also kai? 41 Rather plēn, in connection with what ho is inside eneimi, you should give didōmi alms eleēmosynē, and kai then idou everything pas will be eimi clean katharos for you hymeis. 42 But alla woe ouai to you hymeis · ho Pharisees Pharisaios! For hoti you tithe apodekatoō · ho mint hēdyosmon and kai · ho rue pēganon and kai every pas kind of garden lachanon herb , yet kai disregard parerchomai · ho justice krisis and kai the ho love agapē of ho God theos. These houtos · de you should dei have done poieō, without mē neglecting pariēmi the others kakeinos. 43 Woe ouai to you hymeis · ho Pharisees Pharisaios! For hoti you love agapaō the ho seat prōtokathedria of honor in en the ho synagogues synagōgē and kai · ho greetings aspasmos in en the ho marketplaces agora. 44 Woe ouai to you hymeis! For hoti you are eimi like hōs · ho unmarked adēlos tombs mnēmeion; · ho · kai · ho people anthrōpos · ho walk peripateō over epanō them without ou realizing oida it.”
45 One tis of the ho lawyers nomikos responded apokrinomai · de and said legō to him autos, “ Teacher didaskalos, in saying legō these houtos things you insult hybrizō us hēmeis as kai well .” 46 Jesus ho · de replied legō, “ Woe ouai to you hymeis · ho lawyers nomikos also kai! For hoti you load phortizō · ho people anthrōpos down with burdens phortion hard to bear dysbastaktos, yet kai you prospsauō yourselves autos will prospsauō not ou touch prospsauō the ho burdens phortion with one heis of ho your hymeis fingers daktylos. 47 Woe ouai to you hymeis! For hoti you build oikodomeō · ho memorials mnēmeion to the ho prophets prophētēs, · ho but de your hymeis fathers patēr killed apokteinō them autos. 48 So ara you are eimi witnesses martys: · kai you approve syneudokeō of the ho deeds ergon of ho your hymeis fathers patēr, because hoti while men they autos killed apokteinō them autos, you hymeis · de build oikodomeō the memorials. 49 Indeed kai, for dia this houtos reason the ho Wisdom sophia of ho God theos said legō, ‘ I will send apostellō to eis them autos prophets prophētēs and kai apostles apostolos, · kai some ek of whom autos they will kill apokteinō and kai persecute diōkō,’ 50 so hina that the ho blood haima of all pas the ho prophets prophētēs, · ho shed ekchunnomai since apo the foundation katabolē of the world kosmos, may be charged ekzēteō against apo · ho this houtos generation genea, 51 from apo the blood haima of Abel Habel to heōs the blood haima of Zechariah Zacharias, who ho perished apollymi between metaxy the ho altar thusiastērion and kai the ho sanctuary oikos. Yes nai, I tell legō you hymeis, it will be charged ekzēteō against apo · ho this houtos generation genea. 52 Woe ouai to you hymeis · ho lawyers nomikos!
