Matthew 15:1-11

1 Then came to Iesus scribes and pharises from Ierusalem sayinge:
2 why do thy disciples transgresse the tradicios of ye elders? for they wesshe not their hondes when they eate breed.
3 He answered and sayde vnto them: why do ye also transgresse ye comaundment of God thorowe youre tradicions?
4 For God comaunded sayinge: honoure thy father and mother and he that cursseth father or mother shall suffer deeth.
5 But ye saye every ma shall saye to his father or mother: That which thou desyrest of me to helpe ye with: is geven God:
6 and so shall he not honoure his father or his mother. And thus haue ye made yt the comaundment of God is with out effecte through youre tradicios.
7 Ypocrites well prophesyed of you Esay sayinge:
8 This people draweth nye vnto me with their mouthes and honoureth me with their lippes howbe it their hertes are farre from me:
9 but in vayne they worshippe me teachinge doctrines whiche are nothing but mens precepts.
10 And he called the people vnto him and sayde to them: heare and vnderstande.
11 That which goeth into the mouth defyleth not ye man: but that which commeth out of the mouth defyleth the man.
