¹¹ Behold, the days come, saith the Lord GOD, that I will send a famine in the land, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the Lord:

¹⁶ Give glory to the LORD your God, before he shall cause darkness, and before your feet stumble upon the dark mountains, and while ye look for light, he shall turn it into the shades of death, and make it gross darkness.

¹ Then Pharisees and scribes came to Jesus from Jerusalem, saying,

² "Why do your disciples disobey the tradition of the elders? For they don't wash their hands when they eat bread."

³ He answered them, "Why do you also disobey the commandment of God because of your tradition?

⁴ For God commanded, 'Honor your father and your mother,' and, 'He who speaks evil of father or mother, let him be put to death.'

⁵ But you say, 'Whoever may tell his father or his mother, "Whatever help you might otherwise have gotten from me is a gift devoted to God,"

⁶ he shall not honor his father or mother.' You have made the commandment of God void because of your tradition.
