1ThenG2532 came togetherG4863 toG4314 himG846 the PhariseesG5330, andG2532 certainG5100 of the scribesG1122, who cameG2064 fromG575 JerusalemG2414. 2AndG2532 when they sawG1492 someG5100 of hisG846 disciplesG3101 eatingG2068 breadG740 with defiledG2839, that is to sayG5123, with unwashedG449, handsG5495, they found faultG3201.1 3ForG1063 the PhariseesG5330, andG2532 allG3956 the JewsG2453, exceptG3362 they washG3538 their handsG5495 oftenG4435, eatG2068 notG3756, holdingG2902 the traditionG3862 of the eldersG4245.2 4AndG2532 when they come fromG575 the marketG58, exceptG3362 they washG907, they eatG2068 notG3756. AndG2532 manyG4183 other thingsG243 there areG2076, whichG3739 they have receivedG3880 to holdG2902, as the washingG909 of cupsG4221, andG2532 potsG3582, and of brasen vesselsG5473, andG2532 tablesG2825.34 5ThenG1899 the PhariseesG5330 andG2532 scribesG1122 askedG1905 himG846, WhyG1302 walkG4043 notG3756 thyG4675 disciplesG3101 accordingG2596 to the traditionG3862 of the eldersG4245, butG235 eatG2068 breadG740 with unwashedG449 handsG5495? 6He answeredG611 andG1161 saidG2036 to themG846, WellG2573 hath IsaiahG2268 prophesiedG4395 concerningG4012 youG5216 hypocritesG5273, asG5613 it is writtenG1125, ThisG3778 peopleG2992 honourethG5091 meG3165 with their lipsG5491, butG1161 theirG846 heartG2588 isG568 farG4206 fromG575 meG1700. 7ButG1161 in vainG3155 do they worshipG4576 meG3165, teachingG1321 for doctrinesG1319 the commandmentsG1778 of menG444. 8ForG1063 laying asideG863 the commandmentG1785 of GodG2316, ye holdG2902 the traditionG3862 of menG444, as the washingG909 of potsG3582 andG2532 cupsG4221: andG2532 manyG4183 otherG243 suchG5108 like thingsG3946 ye doG4160. 9AndG2532 he saidG3004 to themG846, Full wellG2573 ye rejectG114 the commandmentG1785 of GodG2316, thatG2443 ye may keepG5083 your ownG5216 traditionG3862.5 10ForG1063 MosesG3475 saidG2036, HonourG5091 thyG4675 fatherG3962 andG2532 thyG4675 motherG3384; andG2532, Whoever cursethG2551 fatherG3962 orG2228 motherG3384, let him dieG5053 the deathG2288: 11ButG1161 yeG5210 sayG3004, IfG1437 a manG444 shall sayG2036 to his fatherG3962 orG2228 motherG3384, It is CorbanG2878, that is to sayG3603, a giftG1435, byG1537 whateverG3739G1437 thou mightest be profited byG5623 meG1700; he shall be free . 12AndG2532 ye permitG863 himG846 no moreG3765 to doG4160 any thingG3762 for hisG846 fatherG3962 orG2228 hisG846 motherG3384; 13MakingG208 the wordG3056 of GodG2316 of no effectG208 through yourG5216 traditionG3862, whichG3739 ye have deliveredG3860: andG2532 manyG4183 suchG5108 like thingsG3946 ye doG4160. 14AndG2532 when he had calledG4341 allG3956 the peopleG3793 to him, he saidG3004 to themG846, HearkenG191 to meG3450 each oneG3956 of you, andG2532 understandG4920: 15There isG2076 nothingG3762 from outside ofG1855 a manG444, thatG3739 enteringG1531 intoG1519 himG846 canG1410 defileG2840 himG846: butG235 the things which comeG1607 out ofG575 himG846, thoseG1565 are theyG2076 that defileG2840 the manG444. 16If any manG1536 hathG2192 earsG3775 to hearG191, let him hearG191. 17AndG2532 whenG3753 he had enteredG1525 intoG1519 the houseG3624 fromG575 the peopleG3793, hisG846 disciplesG3101 askedG1905 himG846 concerningG4012 the parableG3850. 18AndG2532 he saithG3004 to themG846, AreG2075 yeG5210 soG3779 void of understandingG801 alsoG2532? Do yeG3539 notG3756 perceiveG3539, thatG3754 whatever thingG3956 from outsideG1855 enterethG1531 intoG1519 the manG444, it cannotG3756G1410 defileG2840 himG846; 19BecauseG3754 it enterethG1531 notG3756 intoG1519 hisG846 heartG2588, butG235 intoG1519 the stomachG2836, andG2532 goeth outG1607 intoG1519 the draughtG856, purgingG2511 allG3956 foodsG1033? 20AndG1161 he saidG3004, That which comethG1607 out ofG1537 the manG444, thatG1565 defilethG2840 the manG444. 21ForG1063 from withinG2081, out ofG1537 the heartG2588 of menG444, proceedG1607 evilG2556 thoughtsG1261, adulteriesG3430, fornicationsG4202, murdersG5408, 22TheftsG2829, covetousnessG4124, wickednessG4189, deceitG1388, lasciviousnessG766, an evilG4190 eyeG3788, blasphemyG988, prideG5243, foolishnessG877:6 23AllG3956 theseG5023 evil thingsG4190 comeG1607 from withinG2081, andG2532 defileG2840 the manG444.

24AndG2532 from thereG1564 he aroseG450, and wentG565 intoG1519 the bordersG3181 of TyreG5184 andG2532 SidonG4605, andG2532 enteredG1525 intoG1519 an houseG3614, and would haveG2309 no manG3762 knowG1097 it : butG2532 he couldG1410 notG3756 be hidG2990. 25ForG1063 a certain womanG1135, whoseG3739G846 young daughterG2365 hadG2192 an uncleanG169 spiritG4151, heardG191 ofG4012 himG846, and cameG2064 and fellG4363 atG4314 hisG846 feetG4228: 26The womanG1135 wasG2258 a GreekG1674, a SyrophenicianG4949 by nationG1085; andG2532 she besoughtG2065 himG846 thatG2443 he would cast forthG1544 the demonG1140 out ofG1537 herG846 daughterG2364.7 27ButG1161 JesusG2424 saidG2036 to herG846, LetG863 the childrenG5043 firstG4412 be satisfiedG5526: forG1063 it isG2076 notG3756 goodG2570 to takeG2983 the children’sG5043 breadG740, andG2532 to castG906 it to the dogsG2952. 28AndG1161 she answeredG611 andG2532 saidG3004 to himG846, YesG3483, LordG2962: yetG2532G1063 the dogsG2952 underG5270 the tableG5132 eatG2068 ofG575 the children’sG3813 crumbsG5589. 29AndG2532 he saidG2036 to herG846, ForG1223 thisG5126 sayingG3056 go thy wayG5217; the demonG1140 is goneG1831 out ofG1537 thyG4675 daughterG2364. 30AndG2532 when she had comeG565 toG1519 herG846 houseG3624, she foundG2147 the demonG1140 had gone outG1831, andG2532 her daughterG2364 lyingG906 uponG1909 the bedG2825.

31AndG2532 againG3825, departingG1831 fromG1537 the regionG3725 of TyreG5184 andG2532 SidonG4605, he cameG2064 toG4314 the seaG2281 of GalileeG1056, throughG303 the midstG3319 of the regionG3725 of DecapolisG1179. 32AndG2532 they bringG5342 to himG846 one that was deafG2974, and had an impediment in his speechG3424; andG2532 they beseechG3870 himG846 toG2443 putG2007 his handG5495 upon himG846. 33AndG2532 he tookG618 himG846 asideG2596G2398 fromG575 the multitudeG3793, and putG906 hisG846 fingersG1147 intoG1519 hisG846 earsG3775, andG2532 he spitG4429, and touchedG680 hisG846 tongueG1100; 34AndG2532 looking upG308 toG1519 heavenG3772, he sighedG4727, andG2532 saithG3004 to himG846, EphphathaG2188, that isG3603, Be openedG1272. 35AndG2532 immediatelyG2112 hisG846 earsG189 were openedG1272, andG2532 the stringG1199 of hisG846 tongueG1100 was loosedG3089, andG2532 he spokeG2980 plainG3723. 36AndG2532 he chargedG1291 themG846 thatG2443 they should tellG2036 no manG3367: butG1161 the moreG3745 heG846 chargedG1291 themG846, so much the moreG3123 a great dealG4054 they proclaimedG2784 it ; 37AndG2532 were beyond measureG5249 astonishedG1605, sayingG3004, He hath doneG4160 all thingsG3956 wellG2573: he makethG4160 bothG2532 the deafG2974 to hearG191, andG2532 the dumbG216 to speakG2980.
