不可因传统废弃 神的诫命(A)

15 有法利赛人和经学家从耶路撒冷前来,问耶稣: “你的门徒为甚么违背古人的传统,在饭前不洗手呢?” 耶稣回答:“你们又为甚么因你们的传统,违背 神的诫命呢?  神说:‘当孝敬父母’,又说:‘咒骂父母的必被处死’。 你们却说:‘人若对父母说:“我应该给你们的,已经作了献给 神的礼物”, 他就可以不孝敬父母了。’你们因为你们的传统,就废弃了 神的话。 伪君子啊,以赛亚指着你们说的预言说得好:

‘这人民用嘴唇尊敬我,心却远离我;

他们把人的规条当作道理去教导人,

所以拜我也是徒然。’”

10 耶稣叫群众前来,对他们说:“你们要听,也要明白。 11 进到口里的不能使人污秽,只有从口里出来的,才能使人污秽。” 12 门徒前来告诉他:“法利赛人听了这话很生气,你知道吗?” 13 耶稣说:“所有不是我天父栽种的植物,都要连根拔起来。 14 由得他们吧!他们是瞎眼的,却作了向导;如果瞎子领瞎子,二人都会跌进坑里。” 15 彼得说:“请你给我们解释这个比喻吧。” 16 耶稣说:“你们还是不明白吗? 17 难道不知道一切进到口里的,是进到肚腹,然后排泄到外面(“外面”或译:“厕所”)去吗? 18 但从口里出来的,是发自内心,才会使人污秽。 19 因为从心里出来的,有恶念、凶杀、奸淫、淫乱、偷盗、假见证和毁谤。 20 这些才会使人污秽,不洗手吃饭却不会这样。”

迦南妇人的信心(B)

21 耶稣离开那里,退到推罗、西顿境内。 22 有一个迦南的妇人从那地区出来,喊着说:“主啊,大卫的子孙,可怜我吧!我的女儿被鬼附得很苦。” 23 耶稣一句话也不回答她。门徒上前求他说:“请叫她走吧,她一直跟在我们后面喊叫。” 24 耶稣回答:“我被差遣,只是到以色列家的迷羊那里去。” 25 她来跪在耶稣面前说:“主啊,求你帮助我!” 26 耶稣回答:“拿儿女的饼丢给小狗吃是不好的。” 27 她说:“主啊,是的,不过小狗也吃主人桌子上掉下来的碎渣。” 28 于是耶稣对她说:“妇人,你的信心真大,照你所想的给你成就吧!”从那时起,她的女儿就好了。

治好许多病人(C)

29 耶稣离开那里,来到加利利海边,就上山坐下。 30 有许多人来到他那里,把瘸腿的、瞎眼的、残废的、哑的和许多别的病人,都带到耶稣跟前,他就医好他们。 31 群众看见哑巴说话,残废的复原,瘸腿的行走,瞎眼的看见,就十分惊奇,于是颂赞以色列的 神。

给四千人吃饱的神迹(D)

32 耶稣叫门徒前来,说:“我怜悯这一群人,因为他们跟我在一起已经有三天,也没有甚么吃的;我不想叫他们饿着肚子回去,恐怕他们在路上晕倒。” 33 门徒对他说:“我们在这旷野地方,哪里有足够的食物给这许多的人吃饱呢?” 34 耶稣问他们:“你们有多少饼?”他们说:“七个饼和几条小鱼。” 35 他就吩咐群众坐在地上, 36 拿起那七个饼和那些鱼,祝谢了,擘开递给门徒,门徒又分给众人。 37 大家都吃了,并且吃饱了。他们把剩下的零碎拾起来,装满了七个大篮子。 38 吃的人,除了妇女和孩子,共有四千。 39 耶稣解散了群众,就上了船,来到马加丹地区。

上帝的律法与人类的传统

15 一些律法师和法利赛人从耶路撒冷来见耶稣,他们说: “您的门徒为什么不保持我们祖先遗留下来的传统?他们不洗手就吃东西!”

耶稣回答他们∶“为什么你们要为了自己的传统而违背上帝的命令呢? 上帝说∶‘要孝敬父母。’ [a]上帝还说∶‘侮辱父母的人必被处死。’ [b] 可是你们却教导一个人可以对父母说∶‘我有可用来帮助你们的东西,但是我不用它帮助你们,我要把它献给上帝。’ 你们这是在教他们不必孝敬父亲,所以你们在教执行上帝的话并不重要,你们认为更重要的是保持你们的传统。 虚伪的人啊!以赛亚对你们的预言是准确的:

‘这些人说他们尊敬我,
但实际上我对他们无关紧要。
他们对我的崇拜毫无价值,
他们教导的只是人定的规矩。’” (A)

10 耶稣把人们叫到身边,对他们说∶“你们不但要听,而且还要理解我的话。 11 吃进嘴里的东西不会玷污一个人,从嘴里说出来的话才会玷污他。”

12 耶稣的门徒走过来对他说∶“您知道吗?法利赛人听见您的话,他们被激怒了。”

13 耶稣答道∶“不是我的天父栽种的植物是要被拔掉的, 14 随他们去吧,他们是盲人领盲人。如果盲人领盲人,最终他们都会跌进沟里。”

15 彼得说∶“请给我们解释一下您刚才说的那个比喻。”

16 耶稣说∶“你们还不能理解吗? 17 你们难道不知道吗?从嘴里吃到肚子里的东西,又会从肚子里排泄出去; 18 而从嘴里说出来的话是来自内心的,它才会玷污一个人。 19 邪念、谋杀、通奸、不道德的性行为、偷盗、谎言、诽谤都源于人的内心。 20 正是这些东西使人们受到玷污,而用脏手吃东西并不会玷污一个人。”

耶稣帮助非犹太女子

21 耶稣离开那里,到推罗和西顿去了。 22 当地的一个迦南女子来见他,喊着∶“主啊,大卫的子孙,可怜可怜我吧!我女儿被鬼附体,痛苦万分。”

23 耶稣对她一言不发。门徒们走近耶稣说∶“您让她走开吧,她总跟在我们后边嚷嚷。”

24 耶稣答道∶“上帝只派我到迷途的以色列人中间来。”

25 那女子走过来跪在面前说∶“主,请帮帮我吧!”

26 耶稣回答说∶“我不该把给孩子吃的东西拿去喂狗。”

27 女子答道∶“您说的对,主,不过连狗也能吃从主人桌上掉下来的残渣剩饭。”

28 耶稣说∶“妇人,你有很强的信仰!祝你如愿以偿。”顿时,她女儿的病就好了。

耶稣治愈很多人

29 耶稣离开那里,来到加利利湖边。他登上一座山坡,坐了下来。

30 很多人聚到他身边,他们带来中有瘸腿的、失明的、残废的、聋哑的和其它各种各样的病人,他们躺在耶稣脚边,耶稣把他们一一治好了。 31 众人都为此感到惊讶。他们亲眼看见聋哑人开口说话,残疾人恢复正常,瘸腿的能行走,盲人见到光明。他们禁不住地赞美以色列的上帝。

耶稣向四千多人提供食物

32 耶稣把门徒叫到身边,对他们说∶“我很同情他们,这些人和我在一起已经三天了,也没有吃的东西。我不想让他们饿着肚子回去,他们可能会在路上晕倒的。”

33 门徒问∶“在这荒郊野外,我们到哪儿去找足够的食物给这么多人吃呀?”

34 耶稣问∶“你们有多少块面包?”

他们说∶“七块面包和几条小鱼。”

35 耶稣吩咐人群坐在地上。 36 他拿着七块面包和鱼,感谢上帝,然后他掰开食物,递给门徒们,他们又把食物分给了众人。 37 所有的人都吃饱了,之后门徒们收拾起剩下的食物,足足装满了七筐。 38 当时吃饭的人除了女人和孩子之外,大约有四千个男人。 39 吃完饭,耶稣打发人们回家去了,然后乘船到马加丹地区去了。

传统与诫命

15 有几个法利赛人和律法教师从耶路撒冷来质问耶稣: “为什么你的门徒吃饭前不行洗手礼,破坏祖先的传统呢?”

耶稣回答说:“为什么你们拘守传统而违背上帝的诫命呢? 上帝说,‘要孝敬父母’,又说,‘咒骂父母的,必被处死。’ 你们却说,‘人如果把供养父母的钱奉献给上帝, 他就不必供养父母。’你们这是用传统来废掉上帝的诫命。 你们这些伪君子,以赛亚指着你们说的预言一点不错,

“‘这些人嘴上尊崇我,
心却远离我,
他们的教导无非是人的规条,
他们敬拜我也是枉然。’”

10 耶稣召集了众人,对他们说:“你们要听,也要明白。 11 入口的东西不会使人污秽,从口中出来的才会使人污秽。”

12 门徒上前对祂说:“你知道吗?法利赛人听见你的话很反感。”

13 耶稣回答说:“凡不是我天父栽种的都要被连根拔起来。 14 随便他们吧!他们是瞎眼的向导。瞎子给瞎子领路,二人都会掉进坑里。”

15 彼得对耶稣说:“请给我们解释一下这个比喻。”

16 耶稣说:“你们还不明白吗? 17 岂不知入口的东西都是进到肚子里,然后排泄到厕所里吗? 18 可是,从口中出来的乃是发自内心,会使人污秽。 19 因为从心里出来的有恶念、谋杀、通奸、淫乱、偷盗、假见证和毁谤, 20 这些东西才使人污秽。不洗手吃饭并不会使人污秽。”

迦南妇人的信心

21 耶稣从那里退到泰尔和西顿境内。 22 那地方有个迦南的妇人前来大声恳求耶稣:“主啊!大卫的后裔啊!可怜我吧!我的女儿被鬼附身,受尽折磨!” 23 耶稣却一言不发。门徒上前求祂说:“请让她走吧!她老是在后面喊叫。”

24 耶稣说:“我奉差遣只是来寻找以色列家迷失的羊。”

25 那妇人上前跪下,说:“主啊!求你帮帮我吧!”

26 耶稣答道:“把儿女的食物丢给狗吃,不合适。”

27 妇人说:“主啊,不错,可是狗也吃主人饭桌上掉下来的碎渣呀!”

28 耶稣说:“妇人,你的信心真大!我答应你的要求。”就在那一刻,她女儿就好了。

耶稣使四千人吃饱

29 耶稣离开那里,来到加利利湖边,上了山,在那里坐下。 30 大群的人把瘸子、瞎子、残疾的、哑巴及许多别的病人带来,放在祂脚前,祂就治好了他们。 31 大家看见哑巴说话,残疾的复原,瘸子走路,瞎子看见,都很惊奇,就赞美以色列的上帝。

32 耶稣把门徒召集过来,对他们说:“我怜悯这些人,他们跟我在一起已经三天,没有任何吃的。我不愿让他们饿着肚子回去,以免他们在路上体力不支。”

33 门徒说:“在这荒野,我们到哪里找足够的食物给这么多人吃呢?”

34 耶稣问:“你们有多少饼?”

门徒答道:“七个,还有几条小鱼。”

35 耶稣便吩咐大家坐在地上。 36 祂拿着那七个饼和几条鱼祝谢后,掰开,递给门徒,门徒再分给大家。 37 大家都吃了,并且吃饱了,剩下的零碎装满了七个筐子。 38 当时吃饭的,除了妇女和小孩,共有四千男人。 39 随后,耶稣叫众人散去,自己坐船去了马加丹地区。

15 Then came to Jesus scribes and Pharisees, which were of Jerusalem, saying,

Why do thy disciples transgress the tradition of the elders? for they wash not their hands when they eat bread.

But he answered and said unto them, Why do ye also transgress the commandment of God by your tradition?

For God commanded, saying, Honour thy father and mother: and, He that curseth father or mother, let him die the death.

But ye say, Whosoever shall say to his father or his mother, It is a gift, by whatsoever thou mightest be profited by me;

And honour not his father or his mother, he shall be free. Thus have ye made the commandment of God of none effect by your tradition.

Ye hypocrites, well did Esaias prophesy of you, saying,

This people draweth nigh unto me with their mouth, and honoureth me with their lips; but their heart is far from me.

But in vain they do worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men.

10 And he called the multitude, and said unto them, Hear, and understand:

11 Not that which goeth into the mouth defileth a man; but that which cometh out of the mouth, this defileth a man.

12 Then came his disciples, and said unto him, Knowest thou that the Pharisees were offended, after they heard this saying?

13 But he answered and said, Every plant, which my heavenly Father hath not planted, shall be rooted up.

14 Let them alone: they be blind leaders of the blind. And if the blind lead the blind, both shall fall into the ditch.

15 Then answered Peter and said unto him, Declare unto us this parable.

16 And Jesus said, Are ye also yet without understanding?

17 Do not ye yet understand, that whatsoever entereth in at the mouth goeth into the belly, and is cast out into the draught?

18 But those things which proceed out of the mouth come forth from the heart; and they defile the man.

19 For out of the heart proceed evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness, blasphemies:

20 These are the things which defile a man: but to eat with unwashen hands defileth not a man.

21 Then Jesus went thence, and departed into the coasts of Tyre and Sidon.

22 And, behold, a woman of Canaan came out of the same coasts, and cried unto him, saying, Have mercy on me, O Lord, thou son of David; my daughter is grievously vexed with a devil.

23 But he answered her not a word. And his disciples came and besought him, saying, Send her away; for she crieth after us.

24 But he answered and said, I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel.

25 Then came she and worshipped him, saying, Lord, help me.

26 But he answered and said, It is not meet to take the children's bread, and to cast it to dogs.

27 And she said, Truth, Lord: yet the dogs eat of the crumbs which fall from their masters' table.

28 Then Jesus answered and said unto her, O woman, great is thy faith: be it unto thee even as thou wilt. And her daughter was made whole from that very hour.

29 And Jesus departed from thence, and came nigh unto the sea of Galilee; and went up into a mountain, and sat down there.

30 And great multitudes came unto him, having with them those that were lame, blind, dumb, maimed, and many others, and cast them down at Jesus' feet; and he healed them:

31 Insomuch that the multitude wondered, when they saw the dumb to speak, the maimed to be whole, the lame to walk, and the blind to see: and they glorified the God of Israel.

32 Then Jesus called his disciples unto him, and said, I have compassion on the multitude, because they continue with me now three days, and have nothing to eat: and I will not send them away fasting, lest they faint in the way.

33 And his disciples say unto him, Whence should we have so much bread in the wilderness, as to fill so great a multitude?

34 And Jesus saith unto them, How many loaves have ye? And they said, Seven, and a few little fishes.

35 And he commanded the multitude to sit down on the ground.

36 And he took the seven loaves and the fishes, and gave thanks, and brake them, and gave to his disciples, and the disciples to the multitude.

37 And they did all eat, and were filled: and they took up of the broken meat that was left seven baskets full.

38 And they that did eat were four thousand men, beside women and children.

39 And he sent away the multitude, and took ship, and came into the coasts of Magdala.
