16 Wo be vnto you ye blynde guides: for ye say, whosoeuer doth sweare by the temple, it is nothyng: but whosoeuer sweareth by the golde of the temple, he is a detter. 17 Ye fooles and blynde. For whether is greater, the golde, or the temple that sanctifieth the golde? 18 And whosoeuer sweareth by the aulter, it is nothyng: but whosoeuer sweareth by the gyft that is vpon it, he is a detter. 19 Ye fooles and blynde, for whether is greater, the gyft: or the aulter that sanctifieth the gyft? 20 Who so therfore sweareth by the aulter, sweareth by it, and by all thynges theron. 21 And who so sweareth by the temple, sweareth by it, and by hym that dwelleth therin. 22 And he that sweareth by heauen, sweareth by the seate of God, and by hym that sitteth theron.
