English Standard Version

Beware of the Scribes

^38 (A)And in his teaching he said, “Beware of the scribes, who like to walk around in long robes and like greetings in the marketplaces ³⁹ and have the best seats in the synagogues and ^(B)the places of honor at feasts, ^40 (C)who devour widows' houses and ^(D)for a pretense make long prayers. They will receive the greater condemnation.”
