ગુજરાતીમાથ્થી ૨૩:૨૫
ઓ શાસ્ત્રીઓ તથા ફરોશીઓ, ઢોંગીઓ તમને અફસોસ છે! કેમ કે તમે થાળી અને વાટકો બહારથી સાફ કરો છો, પણ તેમની અંદર જુલમ તથા ભોગવિલાસ ભરેલા છે.
हिन्दीमत्ती २३:२५
“हे कपटी शास्त्रियों, और फरीसियों, तुम पर हाय! तुम कटोरे और थाली को ऊपर-ऊपर से तो माँजते हो परन्तु वे भीतर अंधेर असंयम से भरे हुए हैं।

In context

23“Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you tithe mint, dill, and cumin, and have left undone the weightier matters of the law: justice, mercy, and faith. But you ought to have done these, and not to have left the other undone.

24You blind guides, who strain out a gnat, and swallow a camel!

25“Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you clean the outside of the cup and of the platter, but within they are full of extortion and unrighteousness.

26You blind Pharisee, first clean the inside of the cup and of the platter, that its outside may become clean also.

27“Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you are like whitened tombs, which outwardly appear beautiful, but inwardly are full of dead men’s bones and of all uncleanness.
