And he saith unto them, Are ye so without understanding also? Do ye not perceive, that whatsoever thing from without entereth into the man, it cannot defile him;

Because it entereth not into his heart, but into the belly, and goeth out into the draught, purging all meats?

Labour not for the meat which perisheth, but for that meat which endureth unto everlasting life, which the Son of man shall give unto you: for him hath God the Father sealed.

Meats for the belly, and the belly for meats: but God shall destroy both it and them. Now the body is not for fornication, but for the Lord; and the Lord for the body.

Wherefore the Lord said, Forasmuch as this people draw near me with their mouth, and with their lips do honour me, but have removed their heart far from me, and their fear toward me is taught by the precept of men:

And in that day shall the deaf hear the words of the book, and the eyes of the blind shall see out of obscurity, and out of darkness.

Neither shall he regard the God of his fathers, nor the desire of women, nor regard any god: for he shall magnify himself above all.

But he answered and said unto them, Why do ye also transgress the commandment of God by your tradition?

But ye say, Whosoever shall say to his father or his mother, It is a gift, by whatsoever thou mightest be profited by me;

Ye hypocrites, well did Esaias prophesy of you, saying,

But in vain they do worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men.

Howbeit in vain do they worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men.

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

But ye say, If a man shall say to his father or mother, It is Corban, that is to say, a gift, by whatsoever thou mightest be profited by me; he shall be free.

Making the word of God of none effect through your tradition, which ye have delivered: and many such like things do ye.

Not giving heed to Jewish fables, and commandments of men, that turn from the truth.

And the woman which thou sawest is that great city, which reigneth over the kings of the earth.
