aber vergeblich dienen sie mir, dieweil sie lehren solche Lehren, die nichts denn Menschengebote sind."
Mas en vano me honran, Enseñando doctrinas y mandamientos de hombres.
C'est en vain qu'ils m'honorent, en enseignant des préceptes qui sont des commandements d'hommes.
Ma invano mi onorano insegnando dottrine, che son comandamenti d’uomini
Mas, em vão me adoram, ensinando doutrinas que são preceitos dos homens.
他們把人的規條當作教義教導人; 他們拜我也是枉然。』」
