Matt. 15:1-9 (Abbott ePublishing Tyndale21 Version)

"Then Scribes and Pharisees from Jerusalem came to Jesus, saying, Why do your disciples break the tradition of the elders? For they do not wash their hands when they eat bread. But he said to them, Why do you also break the commandment of God with your traditions? For God commanded: Honor your father and mother: and, He who insults father or mother let him be put to death. But you say, Every man should say to his father or mother: That which you desire from me to help. This people draws near to me with their mouths, and honors me with their lips; but their hearts are far from me. But in vain they do worship me, teaching doctrines that are nothing but the precepts of men."
- Matt. 15:1-9 in the Abbott ePublishing Tyndale21 Version of the Gospels

Luke 9:22-25 in the AeP Tyndale21 Version of the Gospels

"The Son of man must suffer many things, and be rejected of the Elders and chief priests and Scribes, and be slain, and on the third day raised again. And he said to them, If any man wishes to follow me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me. For whoever wishes to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake will save it. Because what advantage is there if a person wins the whole world, but loses himself, or throws himself away?"
- Luke 9:22-25 in the AeP Tyndale21 Version of the Gospels

Matt. 6:1-6 in the AeP Tyndale21 Version of the Gospels

"Be careful of your charity, so that you not give it in front of others, with the intention that you be seen by them. Or else you will get no reward from your Father, who is in heaven. Whenever you give your charity, you will not blow a trumpet in front of you, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, so they will be praised by others. Truly, I say to you they have their reward. But when you do your charity, Do not let your left hand know what your right hand has done. So that your charity may be secret, and your Father, who sees in secret, will reward you openly. And when you pray, you should not be like the hypocrites are, because they love to stand and pray in the synagogues and on the street corners, because they wish to be seen by others. Truly I say to you, They have their reward. But when you pray, enter into your closet, shut the door, and pray to your Father, who is in secret, and your Father, who sees in secret, will reward you openly."
- Matt. 6:1-6 in the AeP Tyndale21 Version of the Gospels

Matthew 11:7-15 in the Abbott ePublishing Tyndale21 Version of the Gospels

"And as they departed, Jesus began to say to the crowds concerning John, What did you go out into the wilderness to see? A reed swaying in the wind? But what went did you go out for to see? A man clothed in soft clothes? Look, those who wear soft clothing are in kings' palaces. But what did you go out there to see? A prophet? yes, I say to you, and more than a prophet. For this is he of whom it is written, Look, I send my messenger in front of your face, who will prepare the way in front of you. Truly I say to you, Among those who are born of women there has not risen one greater than John the Baptist: but he who is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than him. And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven allows violence, and the violent take it by force. For all the Prophets and the Law prophesied up until John. And if you will receive it, he is Elijah, who is to come. He who has ears to hear, let him hear."
