Matthew 15:3-9 ▼

3 And answering, He said to them, “Why also do you? transgress the commandment of God because of your? tradition?

4 For God said, ‘Honor your father and mother’ and ‘The one speaking evil of father or mother, in death let him end.’

5 But you? say, ‘Whoever might say to father or mother: Whatever you might be profited by me is a gift,’

6 he shall not honor his father or his mother. And you? made void the word of God because of your? tradition.

7 Hypocrites! Isaiah prophesied correctly about you?, saying:

8 ‘This people honors Me with the lips, but their heart is kept far away from Me;

9 and in vain they worship Me, teaching as teachings the precepts of men.’”
