Matthew 23:3-5

GOD’S WORD Translation

³ So be careful to do everything they tell you. But don’t follow their example, because they don’t practice what they preach. ⁴ They make loads that are hard to carry and lay them on the shoulders of the people. However, they are not willing to lift a finger to move them.

⁵ “They do everything to attract people’s attention. They make their headbands large and the tassels on their shawls long.
