Matthew 23:26-28

Good News Translation

²⁶ Blind Pharisee! Clean what is inside the cup first, and then the outside will be clean too!

^27 (A)“How terrible for you, teachers of the Law and Pharisees! You hypocrites! You are like whitewashed tombs, which look fine on the outside but are full of bones and decaying corpses on the inside. ²⁸ In the same way, on the outside you appear good to everybody, but inside you are full of hypocrisy and sins.
