 15Ay de vosotros, escribas y Fariseos, hipócritas! porque rodeáis la mar y la tierra por hacer un prosélito; y cuando fuere hecho, le hacéis hijo del infierno doble más que vosotros.
 23Ay de vosotros, escribas y Fariseos, hipócritas! porque diezmáis la menta y el eneldo y el comino, y dejasteis lo que es lo más grave de la ley, es á saber, el juicio y la misericordia y la fe: esto era menester hacer, y no dejar lo otro. (Mt. 23:3,15,23)

 18Y sabes su voluntad, y apruebas lo mejor, instruído por la ley;
 19Y confías que eres guía de los ciegos, luz de los que están en tinieblas,
 20Enseñador de los que no saben, maestro de niños, que tienes la forma de la ciencia y de la verdad en la ley:
 21Tú pues, que enseñas á otro, ¿no te enseñas á ti mismo? ¿Tú, que predicas que no se ha de hurtar, hurtas?
 22¿Tú, que dices que no se ha de adulterar, adulteras? ¿Tú, que abominas los ídolos, cometes sacrilegio?
 23¿Tú, que te jactas de la ley, con infracción de la ley deshonras á Dios?

 13Sepulcro abierto es su garganta; Con sus lenguas tratan engañosamente; Veneno de áspides está debajo de sus labios;
 14Cuya boca está llena de maledicencia y de amargura;
 15Sus pies son ligeros á derramar sangre;
 16Quebrantamiento y desventura hay en sus caminos;
 17Y camino de paz no conocieron:
 18No hay temor de Dios delante de sus ojos.
 19Empero sabemos que todo lo que la ley dice, á los que están en la ley lo dice, para que toda boca se tape, y que todo el mundo se sujete á Dios: (Ro. 3:9‑19)
