¹THEN came together unto him the Pharisees, and certain of the scribes, which came from Jerusalem.

²And when they saw some of his disciples eat bread with defiled, that is to say, with unwashen, hands, they found fault.

³For the Pharisees, and all the Jews, except they wash their hands oft, eat not, holding the tradition of the elders.

⁴And when they come from the market, except they wash, they eat not. And many other things there be, which they have received to hold, as the washing of cups, and pots, brasen vessels, and of tables.

⁵Then the Pharisees and scribes asked him, Why walk not thy disciples according to the tradition of the elders, but eat bread with unwashen hands?

⁶He answered and said unto them, Well hath Esaias prophesied of you hypocrites, as it is written, This people honoureth me with their lips, but their heart is far from me.

⁷Howbeit in vain do they worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men.

⁸For laying aside the commandment of God, ye hold the tradition of men, as the washing of pots and cups: and many other such like things ye do.

⁹And he said unto them, Full well ye reject the commandment of God, that ye may keep your own tradition.

¹⁰For Moses said, Honour thy father and thy mother; and, Whoso curseth father or mother, let him die the death:

¹¹But ye say, If a man shall say to his father or mother, It is Corban, that is to say, a gift, by whatsoever thou mightest be profited by me; he shall be free.

¹²And ye suffer him no more to do ought for his father or his mother;

¹³Making the word of God of none effect through your tradition, which ye have delivered: and many such like things do ye.

¹¶ ^*Then came together vnto him the Pharises, and certain of the Scribes, which came from Hierusalem.

²And when they saw some of his disciples eate bread with ^‖defiled (that is to say, with vnwashen) hands, they found fault.

³For the Pharises and all the Iewes, except they wash their hands ^‖oft, eate not, holding the tradition of the elders.

⁵Then the Pharises and Scribes asked him, Why walke not thy disciples according to the tradition of the Elders, but eate bread with vnwashen hands?

⁶He answered and said vnto them, Well hath Esaias prophesied of you Hypocrites, as it is written, ^*This people honoureth mee with their lips, but their heart is farre from me.

⁷Howbeit in vaine doe they worship me, teaching for doctrines, the commandements of men.

⁸For laying aside the Commandement of God, yee hold the tradition of men, as the washing of pots, and cups: and many other such like things ye doe.

⁹And he said vnto them, Full well ye ^‖reiect the Commandement of God, that ye may keepe your owne tradition.

¹⁰For Moses said, Honour thy father & thy mother: and who so curseth father or mother, let him die the death.

¹¹But ye say, If a man shall say to his father or mother, It is ^*Corban, that is to say, a gift, by whatsoeuer thou mightest be profited by me: he shalbe free.

¹²And ye suffer him no more to doe ought for his father, or his mother:

¹³Making the word of God of none effect through your tradition, which ye haue deliuered: And many such like things doe ye.

²Why do thy disciples transgress the tradition of the elders? for they wash not their hands when they eat bread.

³But he answered and said unto them, Why do ye also transgress the commandment of God by your tradition?

⁴For God commanded, saying, Honour thy father and mother: and, He that curseth father or mother, let him die the death.

⁵But ye say, Whosoever shall say to his father or his mother, It is a gift, by whatsoever thou mightest be profited by me;

⁶And honour not his father or his mother, he shall be free. Thus have ye made the commandment of God of none effect by your tradition.

⁷Ye hypocrites, well did Esaias prophesy of you, saying,

⁸This people draweth nigh unto me with their mouth, and honoureth me with their lips; but their heart is far from me.

⁹But in vain they do worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men.

²Why do thy disciples transgresse the tradition of the Elders? for they wash not their handes when they eat bread.

³But hee answered, and said vnto them, Why doe you also transgresse the Commandement of God by your tradition?

⁴For God commaunded, saying, ^*Honour thy father and mother: And ^*hee that curseth father or mother, let him die the death.

⁵But yee say, Whosoeuer shall say to his father or his mother, ^* It is a gift by whatsoeuer thou mightest bee profited by me,

⁶And honour not his father or his mother, hee shall be free. Thus haue yee made the Commaundement of God of none effect by your tradition.

⁷Yee hypocrites, well did Esaias prophecie of you, saying,

^8*This people draweth nigh vnto mee with their mouth, and honoureth mee with their lips: but their heart is farre from me.

⁹But in vaine they do worship me, teaching for doctrines, the commandements of men.
