Luke 20:44-47 Contemporary English Version Anglicised (CEVUK00)

44. David spoke of the Messiah as his Lord, so how can the Messiah be his son?”

45. While everyone was listening to Jesus, he said to his disciples:

46. Guard against the teachers of the Law of Moses! They love to walk around in long robes, and they like to be greeted in the market. They want the front seats in the meeting places and the best seats at banquets.

47. But they cheat widows out of their homes and then pray long prayers just to show off. These teachers will be punished most of all.
