Luke 11:42

* The two F.O.G. Bibles & Commentary below are currently a work in progress.

Woe to you Pharisees! You pay tithes of mint, rue, and every herb, but you disregard justice and the love of God. You should have practiced the latter without neglecting the former.
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
But woe to you Pharisees! For you tithe mint and rue and every herb, but you bypass justice and the love of God. You ought to have done these, and not to have left the other undone.
World English Bible (WEB)
But{G235} woe{G3759} unto you{G5213}, Pharisees{G5330}! for{G3754} ye tithe{G586}{(G5719)} mint{G2238} and{G2532} rue{G4076} and{G2532} all manner{G3956} of herbs{G3001}, and{G2532} pass over{G3928}{(G5736)} judgment{G2920} and{G2532} the love{G26} of God{G2316}: these{G5023} ought ye{G1163}{(G5713)} to have done{G4160}{(G5658)}, and not{G3361} to leave{G863} the other{G2548} undone{G863}{(G5721)}.
Strong's King James
(42) But woe to you Pharisees! Because you tithe mint, rue and every garden herb and pass by justice and the love of The אֱלֹהִים Elohim, now this you should've done without leaving the others.
The F.O.G*
[42] Tragedy awaits you Pharisees! You meticulously tithe even herbs from your garden, but ignore justice and God's love. Practice both – fulfill religious duties while pursuing justice and love.
The F.O.G Paraphrase
‘But woe to you, the Pharisees, because ye tithe the mint, and the rue, and every herb, and ye pass by the judgment, and the love of God; these things it behoveth to do, and those not to be neglecting.
Young's Literal Translation
