²⁵ Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye cleanse the outside of the cup and of the platter, but within they are full from extortion and excess.

³⁹ And the Lord said unto him, Now ye the Pharisees cleanse the outside of the cup and of the platter; but your inward part is full of extortion and wickedness.

⁴⁰ Ye foolish ones, did not he that made the outside make the inside also?

¹⁹ For out of the heart come forth evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness, railings:

²⁰ these are the things which defile the man; but to eat with unwashen hands defileth not the man.

⁷ And even these reel with wine, and stagger with strong drink; the priest and the prophet reel with strong drink, they are swallowed up of wine, they stagger with strong drink; they err in vision, they stumble in judgment.

⁸ For all tables are full of vomit `and' filthiness, `so that there is' no place `clean'.

⁴ and `when they come' from the market-place, except they bathe themselves, they eat not; and many other things there are, which they have received to hold, washings of cups, and pots, and brasen vessels.)

⁵ And the Pharisees and the scribes ask him, Why walk not thy disciples according to the tradition of the elders, but eat their bread with defiled hands?

⁶ And he said unto them, Well did Isaiah prophesy of you hypocrites, as it is written, This people honoreth me with their lips, But their heart is far from me.

⁷ But in vain do they worship me, Teaching `as their' doctrines the precepts of men.

⁸ Ye leave the commandment of God, and hold fast the tradition of men.

⁹ And he said unto them, Full well do ye reject the commandment of God, that ye may keep your tradition.

¹⁰ For Moses said, Honor thy father and thy mother; and, He that speaketh evil of father or mother, let him die the death:

¹¹ but ye say, If a man shall say to his father or his mother, That wherewith thou mightest have been profited by me is Corban, that is to say, Given `to God';

¹² ye no longer suffer him to do aught for his father or his mother;

¹³ making void the word of God by your tradition, which ye have delivered: and many such like things ye do.
