Matthew 15:6

And honour not his father or his mother, he shall be free. eThus have ye made the commandment of God of none effect by your tradition.

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.

NKJV: then he need not honor his father or mother.’ Thus you have made the commandment of God of no effect by your tradition.

ESV: he need not honor his father.’ So for the sake of your tradition you have made void the word of God.

καὶ οὐ μὴ τιμήσῃ τὸν πατέρα αὐτοῦ ἢ τὴν μητέρα αὐτοῦ· καὶ ἠκυρώσατε τὴν ἐντολὴν τοῦ Θεοῦ διὰ τὴν παράδοσιν ὑμῶν.
