Ye blind guides, which strain at a gnat, and swallow a camel.

The verse 24 is found in chapter 23 of Matthew. The woes against scribes and Pharisees denounce obstacles placed before others, selective ritualism, pride, and persecution. The severe language functions as a prophetic denunciation of a religiosity that preserves an appearance of piety while contradicting its own values.

Ihr verblendeten Leiter, die ihr Mücken seihet und Kamele verschluckt!
¡Guías ciegos, que coláis el mosquito, mas tragáis el camello!
¡Guías ciegos, que cuelan el mosquito, pero se tragan el camello!
Conducteurs aveugles! qui coulez le moucheron, et qui avalez le chameau.
Guide cieche! che colate la zanzara, e inghiottite il cammello.
Condutores cegos! que coais um mosquito e engolis um camelo.
你們這瞎眼的嚮導,蠓蟲你們就濾出來,駱駝你們倒吞下去。
