Matthew 23:23
Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You pay tithes of mint, dill, and cumin. But you have disregarded the weightier matters of the law: justice, mercy, and faithfulness. You should have practiced the latter, without neglecting the former.

strains against Matthew 23:23
Jesus condemns using religious language while neglecting justice and mercy; here 'tithes' is twisted into tribute paid through violence.
