Isaiah 29:13

13  And the Lord said:

“Because bthis people draw near with their mouth

and honor me with their lips,

while their hearts are far from me,

and their fear of me is a commandment taught by men,


Ezekiel 33:31

31 And they come to you as people come, and they zsit before you as my people, and they hear what you say but they will not do it; for with lustful talk in their mouths they act; their heart is set on their gain.


Matthew 15:7–9

7 You hypocrites! qWell did Isaiah prophesy of you, when he said:

8  r“‘This people honors me with their lips,

but their heart is far from me;

9  in vain do they worship me,

teaching as doctrines the scommandments of men.’”
