Matthew 15:4-6

New Testament for Everyone

⁴ What God said was ‘Honor your father and mother’ and ‘If anyone speaks evil of father or mother, they must certainly die.’ ⁵ But you say, ‘If anyone says to father or mother, “What you might have gained from me is given to God,” ⁶ they don’t need to honor their father anymore.’ As a result, you make God’s word null and void because of your tradition.
