19 Y confías que eres guía de los ciegos, luz de los que están en tinieblas,

20 Enseñador de los que no saben, maestro de niños, que tienes la forma de la ciencia y de la verdad en la ley:

21 Tú pues, que enseñas á otro, ¿no te enseñas á ti mismo? ¿Tú, que predicas que no se ha de hurtar, hurtas?

22 ¿Tú, que dices que no se ha de adulterar, adulteras? ¿Tú, que abominas los ídolos, cometes sacrilegio?

23 ¿Tú, que te jactas de la ley, con infracción de la ley deshonras á Dios?
