马太福音 15
Chinese New Version (Simplified)
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: 2 “你的门徒为甚么违背古人的传统,在饭前不洗手呢?” 3 耶稣回答:“你们又为甚么因你们的传统,违背 神的诫命呢? 4 神说:‘当孝敬父母’,又说:‘咒骂父母的必被处死’。 5 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”, 6 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。 7 伪君子啊,以赛亚指着你们说的预言说得好:
8 ‘这人民用嘴唇尊敬我,心却远离我;
9 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。
Matthew 15
New International Version
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.

Nueva Versión Internacional (Castilian)
Lo limpio y lo impuro(A)
15 Se acercaron a Jesús algunos fariseos y maestros de la ley que habían llegado de Jerusalén, y le preguntaron:
2 ―¿Por qué quebrantan tus discípulos la tradición de los ancianos? ¡Comen sin cumplir primero el rito de lavarse las manos!
3 Jesús les contestó:
―¿Y por qué quebrantáis vosotros el mandamiento de Dios a causa de la tradición? 4 Dios dijo: “Honra a tu padre y a tu madre”,[a] y también: “El que maldiga a su padre o a su madre será condenado a muerte”.[b] 5 Vosotros, en cambio, enseñáis que un hijo puede decir a su padre o a su madre: “Cualquier ayuda que pudiera darte ya la he dedicado como ofrenda a Dios”. 6 En ese caso, el tal hijo no tiene que honrar a su padre.[c] Así por causa de la tradición anuláis la palabra de Dios. 7 ¡Hipócritas! Tenía razón Isaías cuando profetizó acerca de vosotros:
8 »“Este pueblo me honra con los labios,
pero su corazón está lejos de mí.
9 En vano me adoran;
sus enseñanzas no son más que reglas humanas”».[d]
10 Jesús llamó a la multitud y dijo:
―Escuchad y entended. 11 Lo que contamina a una persona no es lo que entra en la boca, sino lo que sale de ella.
12 Entonces se le acercaron los discípulos y le dijeron:
―¿Sabes que los fariseos se escandalizaron al oír eso?
13 ―Toda planta que mi Padre celestial no haya plantado será arrancada de raíz —les respondió—. 14 Dejadlos; son guías ciegos.[e] Y, si un ciego guía a otro ciego, ambos caerán en un hoyo.
15 ―Explícanos la comparación —le pidió Pedro.
16 ―¿También vosotros sois aún tan torpes? —les dijo Jesús—. 17 ¿No os dais cuenta de que todo lo que entra en la boca va al estómago y después se echa en la letrina? 18 Pero lo que sale de la boca viene del corazón y contamina a la persona. 19 Porque del corazón salen los malos pensamientos, los homicidios, los adulterios, la inmoralidad sexual, los robos, los falsos testimonios y las calumnias. 20 Estas son las cosas que contaminan a la persona, y no el comer sin lavarse las manos.
La fe de la mujer cananea(B)
21 Partiendo de allí, Jesús se retiró a la región de Tiro y Sidón. 22 Una mujer cananea de las inmediaciones salió a su encuentro, gritando:
―¡Señor, Hijo de David, ten compasión de mí! Mi hija sufre terriblemente por estar endemoniada.
23 Jesús no le respondió palabra. Así que sus discípulos se acercaron a él y le rogaron:
―Despídela, porque viene detrás de nosotros gritando.
24 ―No fui enviado sino a las ovejas perdidas del pueblo de Israel —contestó Jesús.
25 La mujer se acercó y, arrodillándose delante de él, le suplicó:
―¡Señor, ayúdame!
26 Él le respondió:
―No está bien quitarles el pan a los hijos y echárselo a los perros.
27 ―Sí, Señor; pero hasta los perros comen las migajas que caen de la mesa de sus amos.
28 ―¡Mujer, qué grande es tu fe! —contestó Jesús—. Que se cumpla lo que quieres.
Y desde ese mismo momento quedó sana su hija.
Jesús alimenta a cuatro mil(C)(D)
29 Salió Jesús de allí y llegó a orillas del mar de Galilea. Luego subió a la montaña y se sentó. 30 Se le acercaron grandes multitudes que llevaban cojos, ciegos, lisiados, mudos y muchos enfermos más, y los pusieron a sus pies; y él los sanó. 31 La gente se asombraba al ver a los mudos hablar, a los lisiados recobrar la salud, a los cojos andar y a los ciegos ver. Y alababan al Dios de Israel.
32 Jesús llamó a sus discípulos y les dijo:
―Siento compasión de esta gente, porque ya llevan tres días conmigo y no tienen nada que comer. No quiero despedirlos sin comer, no sea que se desmayen por el camino.
33 Los discípulos objetaron:
―¿Dónde podríamos conseguir en este lugar despoblado suficiente pan para dar de comer a toda esta multitud?
34 ―¿Cuántos panes tenéis? —preguntó Jesús.
―Siete, y unos pocos pescaditos.
35 Entonces mandó que la gente se sentara en el suelo. 36 Tomando los siete panes y los pescados, dio gracias, los partió y se los fue dando a los discípulos. Estos, a su vez, los distribuyeron a la gente. 37 Todos comieron hasta quedar satisfechos. Después los discípulos recogieron siete cestas llenas de pedazos que sobraron. 38 Los que comieron eran cuatro mil hombres, sin contar a las mujeres y a los niños. 39 Después de despedir a la gente, subió Jesús a la barca y se fue a la región de Magadán.[f]
Matthew 15
The Message
What Pollutes Your Life
15 1-2 After that, Pharisees and religion scholars came to Jesus all the way from Jerusalem, criticizing, “Why do your disciples play fast and loose with the rules?”
3-9 But Jesus put it right back on them. “Why do you use your rules to play fast and loose with God’s commands? God clearly says, ‘Respect your father and mother,’ and, ‘Anyone denouncing father or mother should be killed.’ But you weasel around that by saying, ‘Whoever wants to, can say to father and mother, What I owed to you I’ve given to God.’ That can hardly be called respecting a parent. You cancel God’s command by your rules. Frauds! Isaiah’s prophecy of you hit the bull’s-eye:
These people make a big show of saying the right thing,
but their heart isn’t in it.
They act like they’re worshiping me,
but they don’t mean it.
They just use me as a cover
for teaching whatever suits their fancy.”
10-11 He then called the crowd together and said, “Listen, and take this to heart. It’s not what you swallow that pollutes your life, but what you vomit up.”
12 Later his disciples came and told him, “Did you know how upset the Pharisees were when they heard what you said?”
13-14 Jesus shrugged it off. “Every tree that wasn’t planted by my Father in heaven will be pulled up by its roots. Forget them. They are blind men leading blind men. When a blind man leads a blind man, they both end up in the ditch.”
15 Peter said, “I don’t get it. Put it in plain language.”
16-20 Jesus replied, “You, too? Are you being willfully stupid? Don’t you know that anything that is swallowed works its way through the intestines and is finally defecated? But what comes out of the mouth gets its start in the heart. It’s from the heart that we vomit up evil arguments, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, lies, and cussing. That’s what pollutes. Eating or not eating certain foods, washing or not washing your hands—that’s neither here nor there.”
Healing the People
21-22 From there Jesus took a trip to Tyre and Sidon. They had hardly arrived when a Canaanite woman came down from the hills and pleaded, “Mercy, Master, Son of David! My daughter is cruelly afflicted by an evil spirit.”
23 Jesus ignored her. The disciples came and complained, “Now she’s bothering us. Would you please take care of her? She’s driving us crazy.”
24 Jesus refused, telling them, “I’ve got my hands full dealing with the lost sheep of Israel.”
25 Then the woman came back to Jesus, dropped to her knees, and begged. “Master, help me.”
26 He said, “It’s not right to take bread out of children’s mouths and throw it to dogs.”
27 She was quick: “You’re right, Master, but beggar dogs do get scraps from the master’s table.”
28 Jesus gave in. “Oh, woman, your faith is something else. What you want is what you get!” Right then her daughter became well.
29-31 After Jesus returned, he walked along Lake Galilee and then climbed a mountain and took his place, ready to receive visitors. They came, tons of them, bringing along the paraplegic, the blind, the maimed, the mute—all sorts of people in need—and more or less threw them down at Jesus’ feet to see what he would do with them. He healed them. When the people saw the mutes speaking, the maimed healthy, the paraplegics walking around, the blind looking around, they were astonished and let everyone know that God was blazingly alive among them.
* * *
32 But Jesus wasn’t finished with them. He called his disciples and said, “I hurt for these people. For three days now they’ve been with me, and now they have nothing to eat. I can’t send them away without a meal—they’d probably collapse on the road.”
33 His disciples said, “But where in this deserted place are you going to dig up enough food for a meal?”
34-39 Jesus asked, “How much bread do you have?”
“Seven loaves,” they said, “plus a few fish.” At that, Jesus directed the people to sit down. He took the seven loaves and the fish. After giving thanks, he divided it up and gave it to the people. Everyone ate. They had all they wanted. It took seven large baskets to collect the leftovers. Over four thousand people ate their fill at that meal. After Jesus sent them away, he climbed in the boat and crossed over to the Magadan hills.
