Luke 20:45-47

International Children’s Bible

Jesus Accuses the Leaders

⁴⁵ While all the people were listening, Jesus said to his followers, ⁴⁶ “Be careful of the teachers of the law. They like to walk around wearing clothes that look important. And they love for people to show respect to them in the marketplaces. They love to have the most important seats in the synagogues and at the feasts. ⁴⁷ But they cheat widows and steal their houses. Then they try to make themselves look good by saying long prayers. God will punish these men very much.”
