Matthew(i) 4 And when they come from the market, except they wash they eate not. And many other thinges therbe whyche they haue taken vpon them to obserue, as the wasshyng of the cuppes and cruses, and of brasen vessels, and of tables. 5 Then axed hym the Phariseis and Scribes, why walke not thy disciples accordynge to the tradicions of the elders, but eate breade with vnwashen handes? 6 He aunswered and sayde vnto them: well prophecied Esayas of you hypocrites, as it is wryten: This people honoureth me with theyr lippes, but their hert is farre from me: 7 In vayne they worship me, teachynge doctrines whyche are nothyng but the commaundementes of men. 8 For ye laye the commaundement of God apart, and obserue the tradicions of men, as the washyng of cruses and of cuppes, and many other suche lyke thinges ye do. 9 And he sayde vnto them: wel, ye caste aside the commaundement of God too maintayne your owne tradicions. 10 For Moyses sayd: Honour thy father and thy mother: and whosoeuer curseth father or mother, let him dye for it. 11 But ye saye a man shall saye to father or mother Corban: whiche is, that thou desirest me to helpe the with, is geuen God. 12 And so ye suffer him no more to do ought for his father or his mother, 13 makynge the worde of God of none effect, thorowe youre owne tradicions, which you haue ordeyned. And many suche thinges ye do.
