1 Then Jesus spoke to the multitudes, and to his disciples, 2 saying: The scribes and the Pharisees sit in Moses seat: 3 therefore, all things that they command you to observe, observe and do. But do not according to their works: for they command, and do not. 4 For they bind up burdens that are heavy and hard to be borne, and lay them on the shoulders of men; but they refuse to move them with one of their fingers. 5 And they do all their works for the purpose of being seen by men. They make their amulets broad, and enlarge the fringes of their mantles. 6 They also love the most honorable places at suppers, and the first seats in the synagogues, 7 and salutations in the markets, and to be called by men, Rabbi, Rabbi.
