Matthew 15:3 - The Message

But Jesus put it right back on them. "Why do you use your rules to play fast and loose with God’s commands? God clearly says, ’Respect your father and mother,’ and, ’Anyone denouncing father or mother should be killed.’ But you weasel around that by saying, ’Whoever wants to, can say to father and mother, What I owed to you I’ve given to God.’ That can hardly be called respecting a parent. You cancel God’s command by your rules. Frauds! Isaiah’s prophecy of you hit the bull’s-eye:

   These people make a big show of saying the right thing,
      but their heart isn’t in it.
   They act like they’re worshiping me,
      but they don’t mean it.
   They just use me as a cover
      for teaching whatever suits their fancy."

Matthew 15:3 - New American Standard Bible

And He answered and said to them, "Why do you yourselves transgress the commandment of God for the sake of your tradition?

Matthew 15:3 - Nueva Biblia Latinoamericana de Hoy

Jesùs les preguntò: "¿Por qué también quebrantan ustedes el mandamiento de Dios a causa de su tradiciòn?"

Matthew 15:3 - World English Bible
