Woe to you ... hypocrites!
"How terrible it will be for you ... hypocrites!" See how you translated this in Matthew 11:21.
For you clean the outside of the cup and of the plate, but inside they are full of robbery and self-indulgence
This is a metaphor that means the scribes and Pharisees appear pure on the outside to others, but on the inside they are wicked. (See: rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metaphor)
they are full of robbery and self-indulgence
"they take what belongs to others, and they do almost everything to benefit themselves"
