Matthew 23:6-12 ▼

6 And they love the chief place at the suppers, and the first seats in the synagogues,

7 and the greetings in the marketplaces, and to be called ‘Rabbi’ by men.

8 But you⁺ shall not be called ‘Rabbi,’ for your⁺ Teacher is One, and you⁺ are all brothers.

9 And you⁺ shall call no one your⁺ father on the earth, for One is your⁺ Father who is in heaven.

10 Neither shall you⁺ be called instructors, because One is your⁺ Instructor, the Christ.

11 But the greatest among you⁺ will be your⁺ servant.

12 And whoever will exalt himself will be humbled, and whoever will humble himself will be exalted.
