7:6耶稣说:“以赛亚指著你们假冒为善之人所说的预言是不错的。如经上说:
‘这百姓用嘴唇尊敬我,
心却远离我。
7:7他们将人的吩咐当做道理教导人,
所以拜我也是枉然。’[
7:8你们是离弃 神的诫命,拘守人的遗传。”
7:9又说:“你们诚然是废弃 神的诫命,要守自己的遗传。
7:10摩西说:‘当孝敬父母’,又说:‘咒骂父母的,必治死他。’
7:11你们倒说:‘人若对父母说:我所当奉给你的,已经作了各耳板’(各耳板就是供献的意思),
7:12以后你们就不容他再奉养父母。
7:13这就是你们承接遗传,废了 神的道。你们还做许多这样的事。”
6He replied, “Isaiah was right when he prophesied about you hypocrites; as it is written: ” ‘These people honor me with their lips, but their hearts are far from me.
7They worship me in vain; their teachings are but rules taught by men.’
8You have let go of the commands of God and are holding on to the traditions of men.”
9And he said to them: “You have a fine way of setting aside the commands of God in order to observe your own traditions!
10For Moses said, ‘Honor your father and your mother,’ and, ‘Anyone who curses his father or mother must be put to death.’
11But you say that if a man says to his father or mother: ‘Whatever help you might otherwise have received from me is Corban’ (that is, a gift devoted to God),
12then you no longer let him do anything for his father or mother.
13Thus you nullify the word of God by your tradition that you have handed down. And you do many things like that.”
