New International Version

Mark 7:9-13

9And he continued, “You have a fine way of setting aside the commands of God in order to observe your own traditions!

10For Moses said, ‘Honor your father and mother,’ and, ‘Anyone who curses their father or mother is to be put to death.’

11But you say that if anyone declares that what might have been used to help their father or mother is Corban (that is, devoted to God)—

12then you no longer let them do anything for their father or mother.

13Thus you nullify the word of God by your tradition that you have handed down. And you do many things like that.”
