[46] Woe unto you, ye blind guides! because ye say, Whosoever sweareth by the temple, it is nothing; but whosoever sweareth by the gold that is in the temple, [47] shall be condemned. Ye blind foolish ones: which is greater, the gold, or the [48] temple which sanctifieth the gold? And, Whosoever sweareth by the altar, it is nothing; but whosoever sweareth by the offering that is upon it, shall be condemned. [49] Ye blind foolish ones: which is greater, the offering, or the altar which sanctifieth [50] the offering? Whosoever then sweareth by the altar, hath sworn by it, and by all [51] that is upon it. And whosoever sweareth by the temple, hath sworn by it, and by [52] him that is dwelling in it. And whosoever sweareth by heaven, hath sworn by the throne of God, and by him that sitteth upon it.
