Luke 11:42

Woes to Pharisees and Experts in the Law

41But give as alms the things that are within you, and you will see that everything is clean for you.42Woe to you Pharisees! You pay tithes of mint, rue, and every herb, but you disregard justice and the love of God. You should have practiced the latter without neglecting the former.
