I tell you that on the day of judgment, people will give an account for every worthless word they speak.

He replied, “You have been given the opportunity to know the secrets of the kingdom of heaven, but they have not.

How could you not understand that I was not speaking to you about bread? But beware of the yeast of the Pharisees and Sadducees!”

and said, “I tell you the truth, unless you turn around and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven!

And if he finds it, I tell you the truth, he will rejoice more over it than over the ninety-nine that did not go astray.

So also my heavenly Father will do to you, if each of you does not forgive your brother from your heart.”

Jesus said to them, “Moses permitted you to divorce your wives because of your hard hearts, but from the beginning it was not this way.

“Woe to you, experts in the law and you Pharisees, hypocrites! You clean the outside of the cup and the dish, but inside they are full of greed and self-indulgence.

“Woe to you, experts in the law and you Pharisees, hypocrites! You are like whitewashed tombs that look beautiful on the outside but inside are full of the bones of the dead and of everything unclean.

“Woe to you, experts in the law and you Pharisees, hypocrites! You build tombs for the prophets and decorate the graves of the righteous.

For I tell you, you will not see me from now until you say, ‘Blessed is the one who comes in the name of the Lord!’”
