Luke 11:30-43
-
30 For as Jonas was a sign unto the Ninevites, so shall also the Son of man be to this generation.
-
31 The queen of the south shall rise up in the judgment with the men of this generation, and condemn them: for she came from the utmost parts of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and, behold, a greater than Solomon is here.
-
32 The men of Nineve shall rise up in the judgment with this generation, and shall condemn it: for they repented at the preaching of Jonas; and, behold, a greater than Jonas is here.

33 No man, when he hath lighted a candle, putteth it in a secret place, neither under a bushel, but on a candlestick, that they which come in may see the light.
-
34 The light of the body is the eye: therefore when thine eye is single, thy whole body also is full of light; but when thine eye is evil, thy body also is full of darkness.
-
35 Take heed therefore that the light which is in thee be not darkness.
-
36 If thy whole body therefore be full of light, having no part dark, the whole shall be full of light, as when the bright shining of a candle doth give thee light.

37 And as he spake, a certain Pharisee besought him to dine with him: and he went in, and sat down to meat.
-
38 And when the Pharisee saw it, he marvelled that he had not first washed before dinner.
-
39 And the Lord said unto him, Now do ye Pharisees make clean the outside of the cup and the platter; but your inward part is full of ravening and wickedness.
-
40 Ye fools, did not he that made that which is without make that which is within also?
-
41 But rather give alms of such things as ye have; and, behold, all things are clean unto you.
-
42 But woe unto you, Pharisees! for ye tithe mint and rue and all manner of herbs, and pass over judgment and the love of God: these ought ye to have done, and not to leave the other undone.
-
43 Woe unto you, Pharisees! for ye love the uppermost seats in the synagogues, and greetings in the markets.
