Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You pay tithes of mint, dill, and cumin. But you have disregarded the weightier matters of the law: justice, mercy, and faithfulness. You should have practiced the latter, without neglecting the former.
World English Bible (WEB)
“Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you tithe mint, dill, and cumin, and have left undone the weightier matters of the law: justice, mercy, and faith. But you ought to have done these, and not to have left the other undone.
Strong's King James
Woe{G3759} unto you{G5213}, scribes{G1122} and{G2532} Pharisees{G5330}, hypocrites{G5273}! for{G3754} ye pay tithe{G586}{(G5719)} of mint{G2238} and{G2532} anise{G432} and{G2532} cummin{G2951}, and{G2532} have omitted{G863}{(G5656)} the weightier{G926} matters of the law{G3551}, judgment{G2920},{G2532} mercy{G1656}, and{G2532} faith{G4102}: these{G5023} ought ye{G1163}{(G5713)} to have done{G4160}{(G5658)}, and not{G3361} to leave{G863} the other{G2548} undone{G863}{(G5721)}.
The F.O.G *
(23) Woe to you Torah-scribes and Pharisees! Hypocrites! Because you tithe mint, dill and cumin but neglect the weightier Torah of justice, mercy and faith. This you should have done without neglecting others.
The F.O.G Message *
[23] "What sorrow awaits you teachers of religious law and Pharisees – you hypocrites! You carefully tithe even the smallest herbs from your gardens, but you ignore the more important aspects of the law – justice, mercy, and faith. You should tithe, yes, but without neglecting the more important things."
Young's Literal Translation
Woe to you, Scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because ye give tithe of the mint, and the dill, and the cumin, and did neglect the weightier things of the Law—the judgment, and the kindness, and the faith; these it behoved you to do, and those not to neglect.
