|Mateus 15:4| For God said, 'Honor your father and mother,' and, 'He who speaks evil of father or mother is to be put to death.'

|Mateus 15:5| But you say, 'Whoever says to his father or mother, "Whatever I have that would help you has been given to God, "

|Mateus 15:6| he is not to honor his father or his mother.' And by this you invalidated the word of God for the sake of your tradition.

|Mateus 15:7| You hypocrites, rightly did Isaiah prophesy of you:

|Mateus 15:8| 'This people honors Me with their lips, But their heart is far away from Me.
