Colossians 2:22-23
New Matthew Bible
22 All these things do hurt to men because of the abuse of them, which abuse comes only of the commandments and doctrines of men – 23 which things have an outward show of wisdom, in self-chosen holiness and humbleness, and in that they do not spare the body, and pay no regard to the needs of the flesh.

Colossians 2:22-23
New International Version
22 These rules, which have to do with things that are all destined to perish(A) with use, are based on merely human commands and teachings.(B) 23 Such regulations indeed have an appearance of wisdom, with their self-imposed worship, their false humility(C) and their harsh treatment of the body, but they lack any value in restraining sensual indulgence.
