2 Why do thy disciples transgress the tradition of the elders? for they wash not their hands when they eat bread?
2 “Why do Your disciples break the tradition of the elders? For they (C)do not wash their hands when they eat bread.”
2 Why do thy disciples transgress the tradition of the elders? for they wash not their hands when they eat bread.

3 And he answering said to them, And why do you transgress the command of God, by your tradition?
3 And He answered and said to them, “Why do you yourselves transgress the commandment of God for the sake of your tradition?
3 But he answered and said unto them, Why do ye also transgress the commandment of God by your tradition?

4 For God commanded, saying "Honour thy father and thy mother:" and, He that curseth father or mother, let him surely die.
4 For God said, ‘(D)Honor your father and mother,’ and, ‘(E)He who speaks evil of father or mother is to (a)be put to death.’
4 For God commanded, saying, Honour thy father and mother: and, He that curseth father or mother, let him die the death.
4 For God said:(b)Honor your father and your mother;(E)(c) and,The one who speaks evil of father or mothermust be put to death.(F)(d)
4 Because God said, "You are to honor your father and your mother,' and, "Whoever curses father or mother must certainly be put to death.'
5 But ye say, If any man declare to his father or mother, This is a [devoted] gift, which else might have been employed by me for thy advantage;
5 But you say, ‘Whoever says to his father or mother, “Whatever I have that would help you has been (b)given to God,”
5 But ye say, Whosoever shall say to his father or his mother, It is a gift, by whatsoever thou mightest be profited by me;
5 But you say, ‘Whoever tells his father or mother, “Whatever benefit you might have received from me is a gift committed to the temple”—
5 But you say, "Whoever tells his father or his mother, "Whatever support you might have received from me has been given to God,"
6 then he shall not with it honour his father and mother: so have ye vacated the command of God by your tradition.
6 he is not to honor his father or his mother(c).’ And by this you invalidated the word of God for the sake of your tradition.
6 And honour not his father or his mother, he shall be free. Thus have ye made the commandment of God of none effect by your tradition.
6 he does not have to honor his father.’(e) In this way, you have revoked God’s word(f) because of your tradition.
6 does not have to honor his father.' Because of your tradition, then, you have disregarded the authority of God's word.
