Mark 7:5-13 And the Pharisees and the scribes asked him, "Why do your disciples not observe the rules handed down by our ancestors, but eat food without purifying their hands?"

Goodspeed⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁵ And the Pharisees and the scribes asked him, "Why do your disciples not observe the rules handed down by our ancestors, but eat food without purifying their hands?" ⁶ But he said to them, "It was about you hypocrites that Isaiah prophesied so finely, in the words, " 'This people honor me with their lips, Yet their hearts are far away from me. ⁷ But their worship of me is all in vain, For the lessons they teach are but human precepts.' ⁸ "You give up what God has commanded and hold fast to what men have handed down. ⁹ "How skilful you are," he said to them, "in nullifying what God has commanded in order to observe what has been handed down to you. ¹⁰ For Moses said, 'Honor your father and your mother,' and again, 'Whoever abuses his father or mother must be put to death.' ¹¹ But you say, 'If a man says to his father or mother, "Anything of mine that might have been of use to you is Korban," ' that is, consecrated to God, ¹² you let him off from doing anything more for his father or mother, ¹³ and so you nullify what God has said by what you have handed down. You have many such practices."
