Luke 11:33-44

³³No one lights a lamp and puts it in a cellar or under a basket. Instead, he sets it on a stand, so those who enter can see the light.

³⁴Your eye is the lamp of your body. When your eyes are good, your whole body also is full of light. But when they are bad, your body is full of darkness.

³⁵Be careful, then, that the light within you is not darkness.

³⁶So if your whole body is full of light, with no part of it in darkness, you will be radiant, as though a lamp were shining on you.”

³⁷As Jesus was speaking, a Pharisee invited Him to dine with him; so He went in and reclined at the table.

³⁸But the Pharisee was surprised to see that Jesus did not first wash before the meal.

³⁹“Now then,” said the Lord, “you Pharisees clean the outside of the cup and dish, but inside you are full of greed and wickedness.

⁴⁰You fools! Did not the One who made the outside make the inside as well?

⁴¹But give as alms the things that are within you, and you will see that everything is clean for you.

⁴²Woe to you Pharisees! You pay tithes of mint, rue, and every herb, but you disregard justice and the love of God. You should have practiced the latter without neglecting the former.

⁴³Woe to you Pharisees! You love the chief seats in the synagogues and the greetings in the marketplaces.

⁴⁴Woe to you! For you are like unmarked graves, which men walk over without even noticing.”
