Matthew 9:3: No, ye blind scribes of learning proud

No, ye blind scribes of learning proud:
This Man is the eternal God,
Who doth your souls reprieve:
His power and Deity confess,
Believe ten thousand witnesses
That Jesus can forgive.
The men of human learning proud.
Through envy blind, the truth malign.
Through unbelief pervert the good,
And circumscribe the power Divine,
Harden'd in ours, in every age.
Against a pardoning God they rage.

But Christ, who the abuse foresees,
Performs the good which scribes oppose:
And following Him, we dare displease
By acts of love our murmuring foes,
By righteous works offend their sight,
And blind them through the hateful light.
