Luke 16:14-17 Common English Bible (CEB)

14. The Pharisees, who were money-lovers, heard all this and sneered at Jesus.

15. He said to them, “You are the ones who justify yourselves before other people, but God knows your hearts. What is highly valued by people is deeply offensive to God.

16. Until John, there was only the Law and the Prophets. Since then, the good news of God’s kingdom is preached, and everyone is urged to enter it.

17. It’s easier for heaven and earth to pass away than for the smallest stroke of a pen in the Law to drop out.
