⁴ For God commanded, ^(A)‘Honour your father and your mother,’ and, ^(B)‘Whoever reviles father or mother must surely die.’ ⁵ But you say, ‘If anyone tells his father or his mother, “What you would have gained from me is given to God,”^{[a] 6} he need not honour his father.’ So for the sake of your tradition you have ^(C)made void the word^[b] of God.

¹⁰ For Moses said, ^(A)‘Honour your father and your mother’; and, ^(B)‘Whoever reviles father or mother must surely die.’ ¹¹ But you say, ‘If a man tells his father or his mother, “Whatever you would have gained from me is Corban”’ (that is, given to God)^[a]— ¹² then you no longer permit him to do anything for his father or mother, ¹³ thus ^(C)making void the word of God by your tradition that you have handed down. And many such things you do.”

Children and Parents

6 ^(A)Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right. ^2 (B)“Honour your father and mother” (this is the first commandment with a promise),

⁹ Hurry and go up to my father and say to him, ‘Thus says your son Joseph, God has made me lord of all Egypt. Come down to me; do not tarry. ^10 (A)You shall dwell in the land of Goshen, and you shall be near me, you and your children and your children's children, and your flocks, your herds, and all that you have. ^11 (B)There I will provide for you, for there are yet five years of famine to come, so that you and your household, and all that you have, do not come to poverty.’
