Mark 7:4-13

Rotherham(i) 4 and coming from market, unless they sprinkle themselves, they eat not,––and, many other things, there are, which they have accepted to hold fast––immersions of cups and measures and copper vessels–––– 5 and so the Pharisees and the Scribes, question, him––For what cause do thy disciples not walk according to the tradition of the elders, but, with defiled hands, eat bread? 6 But, he, said unto them––Well, prophesied Isaiah concerning you, ye hypocrites, as it is written––This people, with the lips do honour me, while, their heart, far off, holdeth from me,–– 7 But, in vain, do they pay devotions unto me, teaching for teachings, the commandments of men; 8 Having, dismissed, the commandment, of God, ye, hold fast, the tradition, of men. 9 And he was saying to them––Well, do ye set aside the commandment of God, that, your own tradition, ye may observe; 10 For, Moses, said––Honour thy father and thy mother, and––He that revileth father or mother, let him, surely die,–– 11 But, ye, say––If a man shall say to his father or his mother, Korban! that is, A gift, whatsoever, out of me, thou mightest be profited, 12 no longer, do ye suffer him to do, aught, for his father or his mother,–– 13 cancelling the word of God by your tradition which ye have delivered. And, many such similar things, are ye doing!
