Mark 7:2-23

2and seeingG3708 some of his disciplesG3101 eatG2068 breadG740 with defiled, that isG1510, unwashedG449, handsG5495,

3(for the PhariseesG5330 and all the JewsG2453, unless they washG3538 their handsG5495 diligently, do not eatG2068, holdingG2902 what has been delivered by the ancients;

4and [on coming] from the market-place, unless they areG1510 washed, they do not eatG2068; and there areG1510 manyG4183 otherG243 thingsG4183 which they have receivedG3880 to holdG2902, the washing of cupsG4221 and vessels, and brazen utensils, and couches),

5then the PhariseesG5330 and the scribesG1122 askG1905 him, WhyG5101 do thy disciplesG3101 not walkG4043 accordingG2596 to what has been delivered by the ancients, but eatG2068 the breadG740 with defiled handsG5495?

6But he answering saidG3004 to them, WellG2573 did Esaias prophesyG4395 concerningG4012 you hypocritesG5273, as it is writtenG1125, This peopleG2992 honour me with their lipsG5491, but their heartG2588 is farG4206 awayG575 from me.

7But in vainG3155 do they worshipG4576 me, teachingG1321 [as their] teachingsG1319 commandments of menG444.

8[For], leavingG863 the commandmentG1785 of 1GodG2316, ye holdG2902 what is delivered by menG444 [to keep] — washings of vessels and cups, and many other such like things ye do.

9And he saidG3004 to them, WellG2573 do ye setG114 asideG114 the commandmentG1785 of 2GodG2316, that ye may observeG5083 what is delivered by yourselves [to keepG5083].

10For MosesG3475 saidG3004, Honour thy fatherG3962 and thy motherG3384; and, he who speaksG3004 ill of fatherG3962 or motherG3384, let him surely die.

11But ye sayG3004, If a manG444 sayG3004 to his fatherG3962 or his motherG3384, [It isG1510] corban (that isG1510, giftG1435), whatsoever thou mightest have profitG5623 from me by...

12And ye noG3762 longer suffer him to do anything for his fatherG3962 or his motherG3384;

13makingG4160 void the wordG3056 of 3GodG2316 by your traditional teaching which ye have deliveredG3860; and manyG4183 suchG5108 like thingsG4183 ye do.

14And having called againG3825 the crowdG3793, he saidG3004 to them, HearG191 me, all [of you], and understandG4920:

15There isG1510 nothing from outside a manG444 enteringG1531 into him which can defileG2840 him; but the thingsG3739 which goG1607 out from him, those it isG1510 which defileG2840 the manG444.

16If any one have ears to hear, let him hear.

17And whenG3753 he wentG1525 indoors from the crowdG3793, his disciplesG3101 askedG1905 him concerning the parableG3850.

18And he saysG3004 to them, AreG1510 ye alsoG2532 thusG3779 unintelligent? Do ye not perceive that all that isG1510 outside enteringG1531 into the manG444 cannot defileG2840 him,

19because it does not enterG1531 into his heartG2588 but into his bellyG2836, and goes out into the draught, purging all meats?

20And he saidG3004, That which goes forthG1607 out of the manG444, that defilesG2840 the manG444.

21For from within, out of the heartG2588 of menG444, goG1607 forthG1607 evilG2556 thoughtsG1261, adulteries, fornications, murdersG5408,

22thefts, covetousnessG4124, wickednesses, deceitG1388, licentiousness, a wickedG4190 eyeG3788, injurious language, haughtiness, folly;

23all these wickedG4190 thingsG3778 goG1607 forthG1607 from within and defileG2840 the manG444.
