Matthew 23:16-18
Amplified Bible, Classic Edition
16 Woe to you, blind guides, who say, If anyone swears by the [a]sanctuary of the temple, it is nothing; but if anyone swears by the gold of the [b]sanctuary, he is a debtor [bound by his oath].
17 You blind fools! For which is greater: the gold, or the [c]sanctuary of the temple that has made the gold sacred?(A)
18 You say too, Whoever swears by the altar is not duty bound; but whoever swears by the offering on the altar, his oath is binding.
