²⁴ You blind guides! You strain out a gnat but swallow a camel!

Concerning Oaths

³³ “Again, you have heard that it was said to those of ancient times, ‘You shall not swear falsely, but carry out the vows you have made to the Lord.’^{(A) 34} But I say to you: Do not swear at all, either by heaven, for it is the throne of God,^{(B) 35} or by the earth, for it is his footstool, or by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the great King.

¹⁴ Let them alone; they are blind guides of the blind.^[a] And if one blind person guides another, both will fall into a pit.”^(A)
