3 And responding He said to them; Wherefore do you also transgress the commandment of God because of your tradition? 4 For God commanded saying, Honor thy father and mother: and, He that speaketh evil of father or mother, let him die with death. 5 But you say, Whosoever may say to father or mother, It is a gift, whatsoever you may be profited by me; and he shall no longer honor his father or his mother. 6 You made void the commandment of God by your tradition. 7 Ye hypocrites, beautifully did Isaiah prophesy concerning you, saying, 8 This people honor me with their lips, but their heart is far from me. 9 But in vain they worship me, teaching as doctrines the commandments of men.
