KJV - Matthew 23:14

Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye devour widows’ houses, and for a pretence make long prayer: therefore ye shall receive the greater damnation.

Oh no, religious teachers who pretend to be good but aren't, you take away homes from vulnerable women and act like you're praying a lot. You will get an even worse punishment because of this.
