Luke Chapter 11 Verse 35‹Take heed therefore that the light which is in thee be not darkness.›

‹And when he cometh, he findeth› [it] ‹swept and garnished.›

‹Then goeth he, and taketh› [to him] ‹seven other spirits more wicked than himself; and they enter in, and dwell there: and the last› [state] ‹of that man is worse than the first.›

And it came to pass, as he spake these things, a certain woman of the company lifted up her voice, and said unto him, Blessed [is] the womb that bare thee, and the paps which thou hast sucked.

But he said, ‹Yea rather, blessed› [are] ‹they that hear the word of God, and keep it.›

And when the people were gathered thick together, he began to say, ‹This is an evil generation: they seek a sign; and there shall no sign be given it, but the sign of Jonas the prophet.›

‹For as Jonas was a sign unto the Ninevites, so shall also the Son of man be to this generation.›

‹The queen of the south shall rise up in the judgment with the men of this generation, and condemn them: for she came from the utmost parts of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and, behold, a greater than Solomon› [is] ‹here.›

‹The men of Nineve shall rise up in the judgment with this generation, and shall condemn it: for they repented at the preaching of Jonas; and, behold, a greater than Jonas› [is] ‹here.›

‹No man, when he hath lighted a candle, putteth› [it] ‹in a secret place, neither under a bushel, but on a candlestick, that they which come in may see the light.›

‹The light of the body is the eye: therefore when thine eye is single, thy whole body also is full of light; but when› [thine eye] ‹is evil, thy body also› [is] ‹full of darkness.›

‹If thy whole body therefore› [be] ‹full of light, having no part dark, the whole shall be full of light, as when the bright shining of a candle doth give thee light.›

And as he spake, a certain Pharisee besought him to dine with him: and he went in, and sat down to meat.

And when the Pharisee saw [it], he marvelled that he had not first washed before dinner.

And the Lord said unto him, ‹Now do ye Pharisees make clean the outside of the cup and the platter; but your inward part is full of ravening and wickedness.›

[Ye] ‹fools, did not he that made that which is without make that which is within also?›

‹But rather give alms of such things as ye have; and, behold, all things are clean unto you.›

‹But woe unto you, Pharisees! for ye tithe mint and rue and all manner of herbs, and pass over judgment and the love of God: these ought ye to have done, and not to leave the other undone.›

‹Woe unto you, Pharisees! for ye love the uppermost seats in the synagogues, and greetings in the markets.›

‹Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye are as graves which appear not, and the men that walk over› [them] ‹are not aware› [of them].

Then answered one of the lawyers, and said unto him, Master, thus saying thou reproachest us also.
