Matthew(i)
1 Then came to Iesus Scribes and Phariseis from Hierusalem, sayinge:
2 why do thy disciples transgresse the tradicions of the elders? for thei washe not their handes when they eate bread.
3 He aunswered sayd vnto them: why do ye also transgresse the commaundement of God thorow your tradicions?
4 For God commaunded saying: honoure thy father and mother, and he that curseth father or mother shall suffre death.
5 But ye saye, euery man shal say to hys father or mother: that which thou desirest of me to helpe the with: is geuen to God,
6 and so shall he not honour hys father or mother. And thus haue ye made, that the commaundement of God is without effecte, thorow your tradicions.
7 Hypocrites, well prophecied of you Esaias sayinge:
8 Thys people draweth nye vnto me with their mouthes, & honoureth me with their lippes, howe be it their hertes are farre from me:
9 but in vayne they worshippe me teaching doctrines, which are nothyng but mens preceptes.
