Matthew 15:4-6
English Standard Version
4 For God commanded, (A)‘Honor your father and your mother,’ and, (B)‘Whoever reviles father or mother must surely die.’ 5 But you say, ‘If anyone tells his father or his mother, “What you would have gained from me is given to God,”[a] 6 he need not honor his father.’ So for the sake of your tradition you have (C)made void the word[b] of God.

4 For God said, ‘Honor your father and mother’[a](A) and ‘Anyone who curses their father or mother is to be put to death.’[b](B) 5 But you say that if anyone declares that what might have been used to help their father or mother is ‘devoted to God,’ 6 they are not to ‘honor their father or mother’ with it. Thus you nullify the word of God for the sake of your tradition.

Proverbs 30:11-17
English Standard Version
11 There are those[a] who (A)curse their fathers
and do not bless their mothers.
12 There are those who are (B)clean in their own eyes
but are not washed of their filth.
13 There are those—how (C)lofty are their eyes,
how high their eyelids lift!
14 There are those whose teeth are (D)swords,
whose (E)fangs are knives,
to (F)devour the poor from off the earth,
the needy from among mankind.
15 The leech has two daughters:
Give and Give.[b]
(G)Three things are never satisfied;
(H)four never say, “Enough”:
16 (I)Sheol, (J)the barren womb,
the land never satisfied with water,
and the fire that never says, “Enough.”
17 The eye that (K)mocks a father
and (L)scorns to obey a mother
will (M)be picked out by (N)the ravens of the valley
and eaten by the vultures.
