A House of Prayer for All

56 This is what the Lord says:

³ This is what the Lord says: Administer justice and righteousness.^(A) Rescue the victim of robbery from his oppressor.^(B) Don’t exploit or brutalize the resident alien, the fatherless, or the widow.^(C) Don’t shed innocent blood in this place.

²³ “Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! You pay a tenth of^[a] mint, dill, and cumin, and yet you have neglected the more important matters of the law—justice,^(A) mercy, and faithfulness.^[b] These things should have been done without neglecting the others.
