# He said to them
"And Jesus said to the Pharisees"
# You justify yourselves in the sight of men
"You make yourselves look good to other people"
# God knows your hearts
Here "hearts" refers to the desires of people. Alternate translation: "God understands your true desires" or "God knows your motives" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metonymy]])
# That which is exalted among men is detestable in the sight of God
This can be stated in active form. Alternate translation: "Those things that men think are very important are things that God hates" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-activepassive]])
