Mark 7:2-9

2and seeingG3708 some of his disciplesG3101 eatG2068 breadG740 with defiled, that isG1510, unwashedG449, handsG5495,

3(for the PhariseesG5330 and all the JewsG2453, unless they washG3538 their handsG5495 diligently, do not eatG2068, holdingG2902 what has been delivered by the ancients;

4and [on coming] from the market-place, unless they areG1510 washed, they do not eatG2068; and there areG1510 manyG4183 otherG243 thingsG4183 which they have receivedG3880 to holdG2902, the washing of cupsG4221 and vessels, and brazen utensils, and couches),

5then the PhariseesG5330 and the scribesG1122 askG1905 him, WhyG5101 do thy disciplesG3101 not walkG4043 accordingG2596 to what has been delivered by the ancients, but eatG2068 the breadG740 with defiled handsG5495?

6But he answering saidG3004 to them, WellG2573 did Esaias prophesyG4395 concerningG4012 you hypocritesG5273, as it is writtenG1125, This peopleG2992 honour me with their lipsG5491, but their heartG2588 is farG4206 awayG575 from me.

7But in vainG3155 do they worshipG4576 me, teachingG1321 [as their] teachingsG1319 commandments of menG444.

8[For], leavingG863 the commandmentG1785 of 1GodG2316, ye holdG2902 what is delivered by menG444 [to keep] — washings of vessels and cups, and many other such like things ye do.

9And he saidG3004 to them, WellG2573 do ye setG114 asideG114 the commandmentG1785 of 2GodG2316, that ye may observeG5083 what is delivered by yourselves [to keepG5083].
