Then spake Iesus to the multitude, and to his disciples,

Saying, The Scribes and the Pharises sit in Moses seate:

All therefore whatsoeuer they bid you obserue, that obserue and doe, but doe not ye after their workes: for they say, and doe not.

For they binde heauie burdens, and grieuous to be borne, and lay them on mens shoulders, but they themselues will not mooue them with one of their fingers.

But all their workes they doe, for to be seene of men: they make broad their phylacteries, and enlarge the borders of their garments,

And loue the vppermost roomes at feasts, and the chiefe seats in the Synagogues,

And greetings in the markets, and to be called of men, Rabbi, Rabbi.

But be not ye called Rabbi: for one is your Master, euen Christ, and all ye are brethren.

And call no man your father vpon the earth: for one is your father which is in heauen.

Neither be ye called masters: for one is your Master, euen Christ.

But hee that is greatest among you, shall be your seruant.

And whosoeuer shall exalt himselfe, shall be abased: and he that shall humble himselfe, shall be exalted.
