Matthew 23:18-20

Revised Geneva Translation

¹⁸ “And, ‘Whoever swears by the altar, it is nothing. But whoever swears by the offering upon it, sins.’

¹⁹ “You fools, and blind! Which is greater, the offering or the altar which sanctifies the offering?

²⁰ “Therefore, whoever swears by the altar, swears by it and by all things thereupon.
