Mark 12:38-40

The Voice

Jesus: ³⁸ Watch out for the scribes who act so religious—who like to be seen in pious clothes and to be spoken to respectfully in the marketplace, ³⁹ who take the best seats in the synagogues and the place of honor at every dinner, ⁴⁰ who spend widows’ inheritances and pray long prayers to impress others. These are the kind of people who will be condemned above all others.
