Luke 11:43

Woes to Pharisees and Experts in the Law

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.43Woe to you Pharisees! You love the chief seats in the synagogues and the greetings in the marketplaces.44Woe to you! For you are like unmarked graves, which men walk over without even noticing.”
