Mark 7:3-9

3ForG1063 the PhariseesG3588G5330, andG2532 allG3956 the JewsG3588G2453, exceptG1437G3361 they washG3538 their handsG3588G5495 oftG4435, eatG2068 notG3756, holdingG2902 the traditionG3588G3862 of the eldersG3588G4245.

4AndG2532 when they come fromG575 the marketG58, exceptG1437G3361 they washG907, they eatG2068 notG3756. AndG2532 manyG4183 other thingsG243 there beG1510, whichG3739 they have receivedG3880 to holdG2902, as the washingG909 of cupsG4221, andG2532 potsG3582, brasen vesselsG5473, andG2532 of tablesG2825.

5ThenG1899 the PhariseesG3588G5330 andG2532 scribesG3588G1122 askedG1905 himG846, WhyG5101 walkG4043 notG3756 thyG4771 disciplesG3588G3101 according toG2596 the traditionG3588G3862 of the eldersG4245, butG235 eatG2068 breadG3588G740 withG5495 unwashenG449 handsG5495?

6He answeredG611 andG1161 saidG3004 unto themG846, WellG2573 hathG4395 IsaiahG2268 prophesiedG4395 ofG4012 youG4771 hypocritesG3588G5273, asG5613 it is writtenG1125, ThisG3778 peopleG3588G2992 honourethG5091 meG1473 withG3588G5491 their lipsG3588G5491, butG1161 theirG846 heartG2588 isG568 farG4206 fromG575 meG1473.

7HowbeitG1161 in vainG3155 do they worshipG4576 meG1473, teachingG1321 for doctrinesG1319 the commandmentsG1778 of menG444.

8ForG1063 laying asideG863 the commandmentG3588G1785 of GodG3588G2316, ye holdG2902 the traditionG3588G3862 of menG3588G444, as the washingG909 of potsG3582 andG2532 cupsG4221: andG2532 manyG4183 otherG243 suchG5108 like thingsG3946 ye doG4160.

9AndG2532 he saidG3004 unto themG846, Full wellG2573 ye rejectG114 the commandmentG3588G1785 of GodG3588G2316, thatG2443 ye may keepG5083 your ownG4771 traditionG3588G3862.
