| Matthew 23 |

| 1. | THEN Jesus spoke to the multitudes and to his disciples, | Tunc Jesus locutus est ad turbas, et ad discipulos suos, | τοτε ο ιησους ελαλησεν τοις οχλοις και τοις μαθηταις αυτου |
| 2. | Saying: The scribes and the Pharisees have sitten on the chair of Moses. | dicens : Super cathedram Moysi sederunt scribæ et pharisæi. | λεγων επι της μωσεως καθεδρας εκαθισαν οι γραμματεις και οι φαρισαιοι |
| 3. | All things therefore whatsoever they shall say to you, observe and do: but according to their works do ye not; for they say, and do not. | Omnia ergo quæcumque dixerint vobis, servate, et facite : secundum opera vero eorum nolite facere : dicunt enim, et non faciunt. | παντα ουν οσα εαν ειπωσιν υμιν τηρειν τηρειτε και ποιειτε κατα δε τα εργα αυτων μη ποιειτε λεγουσιν γαρ και ου ποιουσιν |
| 4. | For they bind heavy and insupportable burdens, and lay them on men's shoulders; but with a finger of their own they will not move them. | Alligant enim onera gravia, et importabilia, et imponunt in humeros hominum : digito autem suo nolunt ea movere. | δεσμευουσιν γαρ φορτια βαρεα και δυσβαστακτα και επιτιθεασιν επι τους ωμους των ανθρωπων τω δε δακτυλω αυτων ου θελουσιν κινησαι αυτα |
| 5. | And all their works they do for to be seen of men. For they make their phylacteries broad, and enlarge their fringes. | Omnia vero opera sua faciunt ut videantur ab hominibus : dilatant enim phylacteria sua, et magnificant fimbrias. | παντα δε τα εργα αυτων ποιουσιν προς το θεαθηναι τοις ανθρωποις πλατυνουσιν δε τα φυλακτηρια αυτων και μεγαλυνουσιν τα κρασπεδα των ιματιων αυτων |
| 6. | And they love the first places at feasts, and the first chairs in the synagogues, | Amant autem primos recubitus in cœnis, et primas cathedras in synagogis, | φιλουσιν τε την πρωτοκλισιαν εν τοις δειπνοις και τας πρωτοκαθεδριας εν ταις συναγωγαις |
| 7. | And salutations in the market place, and to be called by men, Rabbi. | et salutationes in foro, et vocari ab hominibus Rabbi. | και τους ασπασμους εν ταις αγοραις και καλεισθαι υπο των ανθρωπων ραββι ραββι |
| 8. | But be not you called Rabbi. For one is your master; and all you are brethren. | Vos autem nolite vocari Rabbi : unus est enim magister vester, omnes autem vos fratres estis. | υμεις δε μη κληθητε ραββι εις γαρ εστιν υμων ο καθηγητης ο χριστος παντες δε υμεις αδελφοι εστε |
| 9. | And call none your father upon earth; for one is your father, who is in heaven. | Et patrem nolite vocare vobis super terram : unus est enim pater vester qui in cælis est. | και πατερα μη καλεσητε υμων επι της γης εις γαρ εστιν ο πατηρ υμων ο εν τοις ουρανοις |
| 10. | Neither be ye called masters; for one is you master, Christ. | Nec vocemini magistri : quia magister vester unus est, Christus. | μηδε κληθητε καθηγηται εις γαρ υμων εστιν ο καθηγητης ο χριστος |
| 11. | He that is the greatest among you shall be your servant. | Qui major est vestrum, erit minister vester. | ο δε μειζων υμων εσται υμων διακονος |
| 12. | And whosoever shall exalt himself shall be humbled: and he that shall humble himself shall be exalted. | Qui autem se exaltaverit, humiliabitur : et qui se humiliaverit, exaltabitur. | οστις δε υψωσει εαυτον ταπεινωθησεται και οστις ταπεινωσει εαυτον υψωθησεται |
