Temptations to Sin

7 “Woe to the world for ^etemptations to sin! ^{▼▼Greek stumbling blocks} ^gFor it is necessary that temptations come, ^hbut woe to the one by whom the temptation comes!

Matthew 23:13-29

13 “But woe ⁱto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you ^jshut the kingdom of heaven in people’s faces. For you ^kneither enter yourselves nor allow those who would enter to go in. ^{▼▼Some manuscripts add here (or after verse 12) verse 14: Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you devour widows’ houses and for a pretense you make long prayers; therefore you will receive the greater condemnation} 15 Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you travel across sea and land to make a single ^mproselyte, and when he becomes a proselyte, you make him twice as much a ⁿchild of ^ohell ^{▼▼Greek Gehenna; also verse 33} as yourselves.

16 “Woe to ^qyou, ^rblind guides, who say, ^s‘If anyone swears by the temple, it is nothing, but if anyone swears by the gold of the temple, he is bound by his oath.’ 17 You blind fools! For which is greater, the gold or ^tthe temple that has made the gold sacred? 18 And you say, ‘If anyone swears by the altar, it is nothing, but if anyone swears by ^uthe gift that is on the altar, he is bound by his oath.’ 19 You blind men! For which is greater, the gift or ^vthe altar that makes the gift sacred? 20 So whoever swears by the altar swears by it and by everything on it. 21 And whoever swears by the temple swears by it and by ^whim who dwells in it. 22 And whoever swears by ^xheaven swears by ^ythe throne of God and by ^zhim who sits upon it.

23 ^aa“Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For ^abyou tithe mint and dill and ^accumin, and have neglected the weightier matters of the law: ^adjustice and mercy and faithfulness. ^aeThese you ought to have done, without neglecting the others. 24 You blind guides, straining out a gnat and swallowing ^afa camel!

25 ^ag“Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For ^ahyou clean the outside of ^aithe cup and the plate, but inside they are full of ^ajgreed and self-indulgence. 26 You blind Pharisee! First clean the inside of ^akthe cup and the plate, that the outside also may be clean.

27 ^al“Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you are like ^amwhitewashed tombs, which outwardly appear beautiful, but within are full of dead people’s bones and ^anall uncleanness. 28 So you also ^aooutwardly appear righteous to others, but within you are full of ^aphypocrisy and lawlessness.

29 ^aq“Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you build the tombs of the prophets and decorate the monuments of the righteous,

Matthew 26:24

24 The Son of Man goes ^aras it is written of him, but ^aswoe to that man by whom the Son of Man is betrayed! ^atIt would have been better for that man if he had not been born.”

Luke 11:42-52

42 ^au“But woe to you Pharisees! For ^avyou tithe mint and rue and every herb, and neglect ^awjustice and ^axthe love of God. ^ayThese you ought to have done, without neglecting the others. 43 Woe to you Pharisees! For ^azyou love the best seat in the synagogues and greetings in the marketplaces. 44 Woe to you! ^baFor you are like unmarked graves, and people walk over them without knowing it.”

45 One of ^bbthe lawyers answered him, “Teacher, in saying these things you insult us also.” 46 And he said, “Woe to you ^bclawyers also! For ^bdyou load people with burdens hard to bear, and you yourselves do not touch the burdens with one of your fingers. 47 ^beWoe to you! For you build the tombs of the prophets whom your fathers killed. 48 ^bfSo you are witnesses and you ^bgconsent to the deeds of ^bhyour fathers, for they killed them, and you build their tombs. 49 Therefore also ^bithe Wisdom of God said, ^bj‘I will send them ^bkprophets and apostles, ^blsome of whom they will ^bmkill and persecute,’ 50 so that ^bnthe blood of all the prophets, shed ^bofrom the foundation of the world, may be ^bpcharged against this generation, 51 from the blood of ^bqAbel to the blood of ^brZechariah, who perished between ^bsthe altar and the sanctuary. Yes, I tell you, it will be ^btrequired of this generation. 52 Woe to you ^bulawyers! ^bvFor you have taken away the key of ^bwknowledge. You ^bxdid not enter yourselves, and you hindered those who were entering.”

Jude 11

11 Woe to them! For they walked in ^bythe way of Cain and abandoned themselves for the sake of gain ^bzto Balaam’s error and ^caperished in Korah’s rebellion.
