*
And in vain they worship Me ,
Teaching as doctrines the commandments of men .'
*
For laying aside the commandment of God ,
you hold the tradition of men --
the washing of pitchers and cups ,
and many other such things you do ."
*
He said to them , "
All too well you reject the commandment of God ,
that you may keep your tradition .
*
For Moses said , "
Honor your father and your mother ';
and , "
He who curses father or mother ,
let him be put to death .'
*
But you say , "
If a man says to his father or mother , "
Whatever profit you might have received from me is Corban "--' (
that is ,
a gift to God ),
*
then you no longer let him do anything for his father or his mother ,
*
making the word of God of no effect through your tradition which you have handed down .
And many such things you do ."
