Woe to the Pharisees and the lawyers

바리새인들과 율법사들에게 화를 선포하심

Luke 11:37–54: as he speaks, a certain Pharisee asks him to dine with him. He goes in and sits at the table without first washing himself before dinner, and the Pharisee marvels at it. The Lord says to him, “Now you Pharisees cleanse the outside of the cup and of the platter, but your inward part is full of extortion and wickedness. You foolish ones, didn’t he who made the outside make the inside also? But give for gifts to the needy those things which are within, and behold, all things will be clean to you.” He pronounces woe on the Pharisees, who tithe mint and rue and every herb but bypass justice and God’s love, and who love the best seats in the synagogues and the greetings in the marketplaces, and woe on the scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites, who are like hidden graves that men walk over without knowing it. One of the lawyers answers him, “Teacher, in saying this you insult us also.” He says, “Woe to you lawyers also! For you load men with burdens that are difficult to carry, and you yourselves won’t even lift one finger to help carry those burdens. Woe to you! For you build the tombs of the prophets, and your fathers killed them.” He says that the wisdom of God said, “I will send to them prophets and apostles; and some of them they will kill and persecute,” that the blood of all the prophets, which was shed from the foundation of the world, may be required of this generation, from the blood of Abel to the blood of Zachariah, who perished between the altar and the sanctuary. “Woe to you lawyers! For you took away the key of knowledge. You didn’t enter in yourselves, and those who were entering in, you hindered.” As he says these things to them, the scribes and the Pharisees begin to be terribly angry and to draw many things out of him, lying in wait for him and seeking to catch him in something he might say, that they might accuse him.

³⁷Now as he spoke, a certain Pharisee asked him to dine with him. He went in and sat at the table.
³⁸When the Pharisee saw it, he marveled that he had not first washed himself before dinner.
³⁹The Lord said to him, “Now you Pharisees cleanse the outside of the cup and of the platter, but your inward part is full of extortion and wickedness.
⁴⁰You foolish ones, didn’t he who made the outside make the inside also?
⁴¹But give for gifts to the needy those things which are within, and behold, all things will be clean to you.
⁴²But woe to you Pharisees! For you tithe mint and rue and every herb, but you bypass justice and God’s love. You ought to have done these, and not to have left the other undone.
⁴³Woe to you Pharisees! For you love the best seats in the synagogues and the greetings in the marketplaces.
⁴⁴Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you are like hidden graves, and the men who walk over them don’t know it.”
⁴⁵One of the lawyers answered him, “Teacher, in saying this you insult us also.”
⁴⁶He said, “Woe to you lawyers also! For you load men with burdens that are difficult to carry, and you yourselves won’t even lift one finger to help carry those burdens.
⁴⁷Woe to you! For you build the tombs of the prophets, and your fathers killed them.
⁴⁸So you testify and consent to the works of your fathers. For they killed them, and you build their tombs.
⁴⁹Therefore also the wisdom of God said, ‘I will send to them prophets and apostles; and some of them they will kill and persecute,
⁵⁰that the blood of all the prophets, which was shed from the foundation of the world, may be required of this generation,
⁵¹from the blood of Abel to the blood of Zachariah, who perished between the altar and the sanctuary.’ Yes, I tell you, it will be required of this generation.
⁵²Woe to you lawyers! For you took away the key of knowledge. You didn’t enter in yourselves, and those who were entering in, you hindered.”
⁵³As he said these things to them, the scribes and the Pharisees began to be terribly angry, and to draw many things out of him,
⁵⁴lying in wait for him, and seeking to catch him in something he might say, that they might accuse him.
