Mark 12:38
World English Bible (WEB)
In his teaching he said to them, “Beware of the scribes, who like to walk in long robes, and to get greetings in the marketplaces,
In context
36 For David himself said in the Holy Spirit, ‘The Lord said to my Lord, “Sit at my right hand, until I make your enemies the footstool of your feet.”’
37 Therefore David himself calls him Lord, so how can he be his son?” The common people heard him gladly.
38 In his teaching he said to them, “Beware of the scribes, who like to walk in long robes, and to get greetings in the marketplaces,
39 and to get the best seats in the synagogues and the best places at feasts,
40 those who devour widows’ houses, and for a pretense make long prayers. These will receive greater condemnation.”
