Matthew 15:2-9

Why
<1302>
do thy
<4675>
disciples
<3101>
transgress
<3845> (5719)
the tradition
<3862>
of the elders
<4245>_?
for
<1063>
they wash
<3538> (5731)
not
<3756>
their
<846>
hands
<5495>
when
<3752>
they eat
<2068> (5725)
bread
<740>_.
But
<1161>
he answered
<611> (5679)
and said
<2036> (5627)
unto them
<846>_,
Why
<1302>
do ye
<5210>
also
<2532>
transgress
<3845> (5719)
the commandment
<1785>
of God
<2316>
by
<1223>
your
<5216>
tradition
<3862>_?
For
<1063>
God
<2316>
commanded
<1781> (5662)_,
saying
<3004> (5723)_,
Honour
<5091> (5720)
thy
<4675>
father
<3962>
and
<2532>
mother
<3384>_:
and
<2532>_,
He that curseth
<2551> (5723)
father
<3962>
or
<2228>
mother
<3384>_,
let him die
<5053> (5720)
the death
<2288>_.
But
<1161>
ye
<5210>
say
<3004> (5719)_,
Whosoever
<3739> <302>
shall say
<2036> (5632)
to [his] father
<3962>
or
<2228>
[his] mother
<3384>_,
[It is] a gift
<1435>_,
by
<1537>
whatsoever
<3739> <1437>
thou mightest be profited
<5623> (5686)
by me
<1700>_;
And
<2532>
honour
<5091> (5661)
not
<3364>
his
<846>
father
<3962>
or
<2228>
his
<846>
mother
<3384>_,
[he shall be free]. Thus
<2532>
have ye made
<208> (0)
the commandment
<1785>
of God
<2316>
of none effect
<208> (5656)
by
<1223>
your
<5216>
tradition
<3862>_.
[Ye] hypocrites
<5273>_,
well
<2573>
did
<4395> (0)
Esaias
<2268>
prophesy
<4395> (5656)
of
<4012>
you
<5216>_,
saying
<3004> (5723)_,
This
<3778>
people
<2992>
draweth nigh
<1448> (5719)
unto me
<3427>
with their
<846>
mouth
<4750>_,
and
<2532>
honoureth
<5091> (5719)
me
<3165>
with [their] lips
<5491>_;
but
<1161>
their
<846>
heart
<2588>
is
<568> (5719)
far
<4206>
from
<575>
me
<1700>_.
But
<1161>
in vain
<3155>
they do worship
<4576> (5736)
me
<3165>_,
teaching
<1321> (5723)
[for] doctrines
<1319>
the commandments
<1778>
of men
<444>_.
