Luke 20:46

46 "Beware of the scribes, who like to walk around in long robes, and love to be greeted with respect in the marketplaces, and to have the best seats in the synagogues and places of honor at banquets.

Luke 20:46 In-Context

44 David thus calls him Lord; so how can he be his son?"
45 In the hearing of all the people he said to the disciples,
46 "Beware of the scribes, who like to walk around in long robes, and love to be greeted with respect in the marketplaces, and to have the best seats in the synagogues and places of honor at banquets.
47 They devour widows' houses and for the sake of appearance say long prayers. They will receive the greater condemnation."
