Mark 7:5-7

New English Translation

⁵The Pharisees and the experts in the law asked him, “Why do your disciples not live according to the tradition of the elders, but eat^[a] with unwashed hands?” ⁶He said to them, “Isaiah prophesied correctly about you hypocrites, as it is written:

‘This people honors me with their lips,
but their heart^[b] is far from me.
⁷They worship me in vain,
teaching as doctrine the commandments of men.’^[c]
