Does the bible have the verse good deeds are like filthy rags?
Maxiogee
In the King James version
the word - rags - appears 4 times, none of them in connection with the concept of "good deeds".
- Pro 23:21 For the drunkard and the glutton shall come to poverty: and drowsiness shall clothe a man with rags.
- Isa 64:6 But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags; and we all do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away.
- Jer 38:11 So Ebedmelech took the men with him, and went into the house of the king under the treasury, and took thence old cast clouts and old rotten rags, and let them down by cords into the dungeon to Jeremiah.
- Jer 38:12 And Ebedmelech the Ethiopian said unto Jeremiah, Put now these old cast clouts and rotten rags under thine armholes under the cords. And Jeremiah did so.
the phrase - good deeds - appears twice.
- Neh 6:19 Also they reported his good deeds before me, and uttered my words to him. And Tobiah sent letters to put me in fear.
- Neh 13:14 Remember me, O my God, concerning this, and wipe not out my good deeds that I have done for the house of my God, and for the offices thereof.

What biblical verse says for you to wash the outside of the cup but not the inside?
There is no such verse in the Bible. You are probably thinking of Matthew 23:25-26, where Jesus is telling the Scribes and Pharisees that they are hypocrites because they cleansed the outside of the cup but not the inside, meaning they made themselves look good on the out side, but inwardly in their heart they we like a dirty cup. This was one of their big problems. You do not want to put on a good exterior but be a filthy person on the inside.
