Mark 7:2-9

2and had seenG3708 that some of his disciplesG3101 ateG2068 their breadG740 with defiled, that isG1510, unwashen, handsG5495. 3(For the PhariseesG5330, and all the JewsG2453, except they washG3538 their handsG5495 diligently, eatG2068 not, holdingG2902 the traditionG3862 of the eldersG4245; 4and when they come from the marketplace, except they bathe themselves, they eatG2068 not; and manyG4183 otherG243 thingsG4183 there areG1510, which they have receivedG3880 to holdG2902, washings of cupsG4221, and pots, and brasen vessels.) 5And the PhariseesG5330 and the scribesG1122 askG1905 him, WhyG5101 walkG4043 not thy disciplesG3101 accordingG2596 to the traditionG3862 of the eldersG4245, but eatG2068 their breadG740 with defiled handsG5495? 6And he saidG3004 unto them, WellG2573 did IsaiahG2268 prophesyG4395 of you hypocritesG5273, as it is writtenG1125,

This peopleG2992 honoreth me with their lipsG5491,But their heartG2588 is farG4206 from me.7But in vainG3155 do they worshipG4576 me,TeachingG1321as theirdoctrinesG1319 the preceptsG1778 of menG444.

8Ye leaveG863 the commandmentG1785 of GodG2316, and holdG2902 fastG2902 the traditionG3862 of menG444. 9And he saidG3004 unto them, Full wellG2573 do ye rejectG114 the commandmentG1785 of GodG2316, that ye may keepG5083 your traditionG3862.
