Fariseii şi datina bătrânilor
15 Atunci, nişte farisei şi nişte cărturari din Ierusalim au(A) venit la Isus şi I-au zis: 2 „Pentru(B) ce calcă ucenicii Tăi datina(C) bătrânilor? Căci nu-şi spală mâinile când mănâncă.” 3 Drept răspuns, El le-a zis: „Dar voi de ce călcaţi porunca lui Dumnezeu în folosul datinei voastre? 4 Căci Dumnezeu a zis: ‘Cinsteşte(D) pe tatăl tău şi pe mama ta’ şi: ‘Cine(E) va grăi de rău pe tatăl său sau pe mama sa să fie pedepsit negreşit cu moartea’. 5 Dar(F) voi ziceţi: ‘Cine va zice tatălui său sau mamei sale: «Ori cu ce te-aş putea ajuta», l-am închinat lui Dumnezeu, 6 nu mai este ţinut să cinstească pe tatăl său sau pe mama sa.’ Şi aţi desfiinţat astfel cuvântul lui Dumnezeu în folosul datinei voastre. 7 Făţărnicilor(G), bine a prorocit Isaia despre voi, când a zis: 8 ‘Norodul acesta(H) se apropie de Mine cu gura şi mă cinsteşte cu buzele, dar inima lui este departe de Mine’. 9 Degeaba Mă cinstesc ei învăţând(I) ca învăţături nişte porunci omeneşti.”
Lucrurile care spurcă pe om
10 Isus a chemat(J) mulţimea la Sine şi a zis: „Ascultaţi şi înţelegeţi: 11 Nu(K) ce intră în gură spurcă pe om, ci ce iese din gură, aceea spurcă pe om”. 12 Atunci, ucenicii Lui s-au apropiat şi I-au zis: „Ştii că fariseii au găsit pricină de poticnire în cuvintele pe care le-au auzit?” 13 Drept răspuns, El le-a zis: „Orice(L) răsad pe care nu l-a sădit Tatăl Meu cel ceresc va fi smuls din rădăcină. 14 Lăsaţi-i: sunt(M) nişte călăuze oarbe; şi când un orb călăuzeşte pe un alt orb, vor cădea amândoi în groapă.” 15 Petru(N) a luat cuvântul şi I-a zis: „Desluşeşte-ne pilda aceasta”. 16 Isus a zis: „Şi(O) voi tot fără pricepere sunteţi? 17 Nu înţelegeţi că orice(P) intră în gură merge în pântece şi apoi este aruncat afară în hazna? 18 Dar ce(Q) iese din gură vine din inimă, şi aceea spurcă pe om. 19 Căci(R) din inimă ies gândurile rele, uciderile, preacurviile, curviile, furtişagurile, mărturiile mincinoase, hulele. 20 Iată lucrurile care spurcă pe om, dar a mânca cu mâinile nespălate nu spurcă pe om.”
Femeia canaaneancă
21 Isus(S), după ce a plecat de acolo, S-a dus în părţile Tirului şi ale Sidonului. 22 Şi iată că o femeie canaaneancă a venit din ţinuturile acelea şi a început să strige către El: „Ai milă de mine, Doamne, Fiul lui David! Fiică-mea este muncită rău de un drac.” 23 El nu i-a răspuns niciun cuvânt. Şi ucenicii Lui s-au apropiat şi L-au rugat stăruitor: „Dă-i drumul, căci strigă după noi”. 24 Drept răspuns, El a zis: „Eu(T) nu sunt trimis decât la oile pierdute ale casei lui Israel”. 25 Dar ea a venit şi I s-a închinat, zicând: „Doamne, ajută-mi!” 26 Drept răspuns, El i-a zis: „Nu este bine să iei pâinea copiilor şi s-o arunci la căţei(U)!” 27 „Da, Doamne”, a zis ea, „dar şi căţeii mănâncă firimiturile care cad de la masa stăpânilor lor”. 28 Atunci, Isus i-a zis: „O, femeie, mare este credinţa Ta! Facă-ţi-se cum voieşti.”Şi fiica ei s-a tămăduit chiar în ceasul acela.
A doua înmulţire a pâinilor
29 Isus(V) a plecat din locurile acelea şi a venit lângă(W) Marea Galileii. S-a suit pe munte şi a şezut jos acolo. 30 Atunci(X) au venit la El multe noroade, având cu ele şchiopi, orbi, muţi, ciungi şi mulţi alţi bolnavi I-au pus la picioarele Lui şi El i-a tămăduit; 31 aşa că noroadele se mirau când au văzut că muţii vorbesc, ciungii se însănătoşesc, şchiopii umblă şi orbii văd şi slăveau pe Dumnezeul lui Israel. 32 Isus(Y) a chemat pe ucenicii Săi şi le-a zis: „Mi-este milă de gloata aceasta, căci iată că de trei zile aşteaptă lângă Mine şi n-au ce mânca. Nu vreau să le dau drumul flămânzi, ca nu cumva să leşine de foame pe drum.” 33 Ucenicii(Z) I-au zis: „De unde să luăm în pustia aceasta atâtea pâini ca să săturăm atâta gloată?” 34 „Câte pâini aveţi?” i-a întrebat Isus. „Şapte”, I-au răspuns ei, „şi puţini peştişori”. 35 Atunci, Isus a poruncit norodului să şadă pe pământ. 36 A luat(AA) cele şapte pâini şi peştişorii şi, după ce a mulţumit(AB) lui Dumnezeu, a frânt şi a dat ucenicilor, iar ucenicii au împărţit norodului. 37 Au mâncat toţi şi s-au săturat; şi s-au ridicat şapte coşniţe pline cu rămăşiţele de firimituri. 38 Cei ce mâncaseră erau patru mii de bărbaţi, afară de femei şi de copii. 39 În urmă(AC), Isus a dat drumul noroadelor, S-a suit în corabie şi a trecut în ţinutul Magdalei.

That Which Defiles(A)
15 Then some Pharisees and teachers of the law came to Jesus from Jerusalem and asked, 2 “Why do your disciples break the tradition of the elders? They don’t wash their hands before they eat!”(B)
3 Jesus replied, “And why do you break the command of God for the sake of your tradition? 4 For God said, ‘Honor your father and mother’[a](C) and ‘Anyone who curses their father or mother is to be put to death.’[b](D) 5 But you say that if anyone declares that what might have been used to help their father or mother is ‘devoted to God,’ 6 they are not to ‘honor their father or mother’ with it. Thus you nullify the word of God for the sake of your tradition. 7 You hypocrites! Isaiah was right when he prophesied about you:
8 “‘These people honor me with their lips,
but their hearts are far from me.
9 They worship me in vain;
their teachings are merely human rules.(E)’[c](F)”
10 Jesus called the crowd to him and said, “Listen and understand. 11 What goes into someone’s mouth does not defile them,(G) but what comes out of their mouth, that is what defiles them.”(H)
12 Then the disciples came to him and asked, “Do you know that the Pharisees were offended when they heard this?”
13 He replied, “Every plant that my heavenly Father has not planted(I) will be pulled up by the roots. 14 Leave them; they are blind guides.[d](J) If the blind lead the blind, both will fall into a pit.”(K)
15 Peter said, “Explain the parable to us.”(L)
16 “Are you still so dull?”(M) Jesus asked them. 17 “Don’t you see that whatever enters the mouth goes into the stomach and then out of the body? 18 But the things that come out of a person’s mouth come from the heart,(N) and these defile them. 19 For out of the heart come evil thoughts—murder, adultery, sexual immorality, theft, false testimony, slander.(O) 20 These are what defile a person;(P) but eating with unwashed hands does not defile them.”
The Faith of a Canaanite Woman(Q)
21 Leaving that place, Jesus withdrew to the region of Tyre and Sidon.(R) 22 A Canaanite woman from that vicinity came to him, crying out, “Lord, Son of David,(S) have mercy on me! My daughter is demon-possessed and suffering terribly.”(T)
23 Jesus did not answer a word. So his disciples came to him and urged him, “Send her away, for she keeps crying out after us.”
24 He answered, “I was sent only to the lost sheep of Israel.”(U)
25 The woman came and knelt before him.(V) “Lord, help me!” she said.
26 He replied, “It is not right to take the children’s bread and toss it to the dogs.”
27 “Yes it is, Lord,” she said. “Even the dogs eat the crumbs that fall from their master’s table.”
28 Then Jesus said to her, “Woman, you have great faith!(W) Your request is granted.” And her daughter was healed at that moment.
Jesus Feeds the Four Thousand(X)(Y)(Z)
29 Jesus left there and went along the Sea of Galilee. Then he went up on a mountainside and sat down. 30 Great crowds came to him, bringing the lame, the blind, the crippled, the mute and many others, and laid them at his feet; and he healed them.(AA) 31 The people were amazed when they saw the mute speaking, the crippled made well, the lame walking and the blind seeing. And they praised the God of Israel.(AB)
32 Jesus called his disciples to him and said, “I have compassion for these people;(AC) they have already been with me three days and have nothing to eat. I do not want to send them away hungry, or they may collapse on the way.”
33 His disciples answered, “Where could we get enough bread in this remote place to feed such a crowd?”
34 “How many loaves do you have?” Jesus asked.
“Seven,” they replied, “and a few small fish.”
35 He told the crowd to sit down on the ground. 36 Then he took the seven loaves and the fish, and when he had given thanks, he broke them(AD) and gave them to the disciples, and they in turn to the people. 37 They all ate and were satisfied. Afterward the disciples picked up seven basketfuls of broken pieces that were left over.(AE) 38 The number of those who ate was four thousand men, besides women and children. 39 After Jesus had sent the crowd away, he got into the boat and went to the vicinity of Magadan.

Defilement Comes from Within(A)
15 Then (B)the scribes and Pharisees who were from Jerusalem came to Jesus, saying, 2 (C)“Why do Your disciples transgress the tradition of the elders? For they do not wash their hands when they eat bread.”
3 He answered and said to them, “Why do you also transgress the commandment of God because of your tradition? 4 For God commanded, saying, (D)‘Honor your father and your mother’; and, (E)‘He who curses father or mother, let him be put to death.’ 5 But you say, ‘Whoever says to his father or mother, (F)“Whatever profit you might have received from me is a gift to God”— 6 then he need not honor his father [a]or mother.’ Thus you have made the [b]commandment of God of no effect by your tradition. 7 (G)Hypocrites! Well did Isaiah prophesy about you, saying:
8 ‘These(H) people [c]draw near to Me with their mouth,
And honor Me with their lips,
But their heart is far from Me.
9 And in vain they worship Me,
(I)Teaching as doctrines the commandments of men.’ ”
10 (J)When He had called the multitude to Himself, He said to them, “Hear and understand: 11 (K)Not what goes into the mouth defiles a man; but what comes out of the mouth, this defiles a man.”
12 Then His disciples came and said to Him, “Do You know that the Pharisees were offended when they heard this saying?”
13 But He answered and said, (L)“Every plant which My heavenly Father has not planted will be uprooted. 14 Let them alone. (M)They are blind leaders of the blind. And if the blind leads the blind, both will fall into a ditch.”
15 (N)Then Peter answered and said to Him, “Explain this parable to us.”
16 So Jesus said, (O)“Are you also still without understanding? 17 Do you not yet understand that (P)whatever enters the mouth goes into the stomach and is eliminated? 18 But (Q)those things which proceed out of the mouth come from the heart, and they defile a man. 19 (R)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 unwashed hands does not defile a man.”
A Gentile Shows Her Faith(S)
21 (T)Then Jesus went out from there and departed to the region of Tyre and Sidon. 22 And behold, a woman of Canaan came from that region and cried out to Him, saying, “Have mercy on me, O Lord, (U)Son of David! My daughter is severely demon-possessed.”
23 But He answered her not a word.
And His disciples came and urged Him, saying, “Send her away, for she cries out after us.”
24 But He answered and said, (V)“I was not sent except to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.”
25 Then she came and worshiped Him, saying, “Lord, help me!”
26 But He answered and said, “It is not good to take the children’s bread and throw it to the little (W)dogs.”
27 And she said, “Yes, Lord, yet even the little dogs eat the crumbs which fall from their masters’ table.”
28 Then Jesus answered and said to her, “O woman, (X)great is your faith! Let it be to you as you desire.” And her daughter was healed from that very hour.
Jesus Heals Great Multitudes(Y)
29 (Z)Jesus departed from there, (AA)skirted the Sea of Galilee, and went up on the mountain and sat down there. 30 (AB)Then great multitudes came to Him, having with them the lame, blind, mute, [d]maimed, and many others; and they laid them down at Jesus’ (AC)feet, and He healed them. 31 So the multitude marveled when they saw the mute speaking, the [e]maimed made whole, the lame walking, and the blind seeing; and they (AD)glorified the God of Israel.
Feeding the Four Thousand(AE)
32 (AF)Now Jesus called His disciples to Himself and said, “I have compassion on the multitude, because they have now continued with Me three days and have nothing to eat. And I do not want to send them away hungry, lest they faint on the way.”
33 (AG)Then His disciples said to Him, “Where could we get enough bread in the wilderness to fill such a great multitude?”
34 Jesus said to them, “How many loaves do you have?”
And they said, “Seven, and a few little fish.”
35 So He commanded the multitude to sit down on the ground. 36 And (AH)He took the seven loaves and the fish and (AI)gave thanks, broke them and gave them to His disciples; and the disciples gave to the multitude. 37 So they all ate and were filled, and they took up seven large baskets full of the fragments that were left. 38 Now those who ate were four thousand men, besides women and children. 39 (AJ)And He sent away the multitude, got into the boat, and came to the region of [f]Magdala.
