马太福音 15
Chinese Union Version Modern Punctuation (Simplified)
礼上的污秽
15 那时，有法利赛人和文士从耶路撒冷来见耶稣，说： 2 “你的门徒为什么犯古人的遗传呢？因为吃饭的时候，他们不洗手。” 3 耶稣回答说：“你们为什么因着你们的遗传，犯神的诫命呢？ 4 神说：‘当孝敬父母’，又说：‘咒骂父母的，必治死他。’ 5 你们倒说，无论何人对父母说：‘我所当奉给你的已经做了供献’， 6 他就可以不孝敬父母。这就是你们借着遗传，废了神的诫命！ 7 假冒为善的人哪！以赛亚指着你们说的预言是不错的，他说： 8 ‘这百姓用嘴唇尊敬我，心却远离我。 9 他们将人的吩咐当做道理教导人，所以拜我也是枉然。’”
心里的污秽
10 耶稣就叫了众人来，对他们说：“你们要听，也要明白。 11 入口的不能污秽人，出口的乃能污秽人。” 12 当时，门徒进前来对他说：“法利赛人听见这话不服[a]，你知道吗？” 13 耶稣回答说：“凡栽种的物，若不是我天父栽种的，必要拔出来。 14 任凭他们吧！他们是瞎眼领路的。若是瞎子领瞎子，两个人都要掉在坑里。” 15 彼得对耶稣说：“请将这比喻讲给我们听。” 16 耶稣说：“你们到如今还不明白吗？ 17 岂不知凡入口的，是运到肚子里，又落在茅厕里吗？ 18 唯独出口的，是从心里发出来的，这才污秽人。 19 因为从心里发出来的，有恶念、凶杀、奸淫、苟合、偷盗、妄证、谤讟。 20 这都是污秽人的，至于不洗手吃饭，那却不污秽人。”
耶稣夸奖迦南妇人的信心
21 耶稣离开那里，退到推罗、西顿的境内去。 22 有一个迦南妇人，从那地方出来，喊着说：“主啊，大卫的子孙，可怜我！我女儿被鬼附得甚苦。” 23 耶稣却一言不答。门徒进前来求他，说：“这妇人在我们后头喊叫，请打发她走吧！” 24 耶稣说：“我奉差遣，不过是到以色列家迷失的羊那里去。” 25 那妇人来拜他，说：“主啊，帮助我！” 26 他回答说：“不好拿儿女的饼丢给狗吃。” 27 妇人说：“主啊，不错，但是狗也吃它主人桌子上掉下来的碎渣儿！” 28 耶稣说：“妇人，你的信心是大的！照你所要的，给你成全了吧。”从那时候，她女儿就好了。
29 耶稣离开那地方，来到靠近加利利的海边，就上山坐下。 30 有许多人到他那里，带着瘸子、瞎子、哑巴、有残疾的和好些别的病人，都放在他脚前，他就治好了他们。 31 甚至众人都稀奇，因为看见哑巴说话、残疾的痊愈、瘸子行走、瞎子看见，他们就归荣耀给以色列的神。
给四千人吃饱
32 耶稣叫门徒来，说：“我怜悯这众人，因为他们同我在这里已经三天，也没有吃的了。我不愿意叫他们饿着回去，恐怕在路上困乏。” 33 门徒说：“我们在这野地，哪里有这么多的饼叫这许多人吃饱呢？” 34 耶稣说：“你们有多少饼？”他们说：“有七个，还有几条小鱼。” 35 他就吩咐众人坐在地上， 36 拿着这七个饼和几条鱼，祝谢了，掰开，递给门徒，门徒又递给众人。 37 众人都吃，并且吃饱了，收拾剩下的零碎，装满了七个筐子。 38 吃的人，除了妇女孩子，共有四千。 39 耶稣叫众人散去，就上船，来到马加丹的境界。

傳統與誡命
15 有幾個法利賽人和律法教師從耶路撒冷來質問耶穌： 2 「為什麼你的門徒吃飯前不行洗手禮，破壞祖先的傳統呢？」
3 耶穌回答說：「為什麼你們拘守傳統而違背上帝的誡命呢？ 4 上帝說，『要孝敬父母』，又說，『咒罵父母的，必被處死。』 5 你們卻說，『人如果把供養父母的錢奉獻給上帝， 6 他就不必供養父母。』你們這是用傳統來廢掉上帝的誡命。 7 你們這些偽君子，以賽亞指著你們說的預言一點沒錯，
8 『這些人嘴上尊崇我，
心卻遠離我，
9 他們的教導無非是人的規條，
他們敬拜我也是枉然。』」
10 耶穌召集了眾人，對他們說：「你們要聽，也要明白。 11 入口的東西不會使人污穢，從口中出來的才會使人污穢。」
12 門徒上前對祂說：「你知道嗎？法利賽人聽見你的話很反感。」
13 耶穌回答說：「凡不是我天父栽種的都要被連根拔起來。 14 隨便他們吧！他們是瞎眼的嚮導。瞎子給瞎子領路，二人都會掉進坑裡。」
15 彼得對耶穌說：「請給我們解釋一下這個比喻。」
16 耶穌說：「你們還不明白嗎？ 17 豈不知入口的東西都是進到肚子裡，然後排泄到廁所裡嗎？ 18 可是，從口中出來的乃是發自內心，會使人污穢。 19 因為從心裡出來的有惡念、謀殺、通姦、淫亂、偷盜、假見證和毀謗， 20 這些東西才使人污穢。不洗手吃飯並不會使人污穢。」
迦南婦人的信心
21 耶穌從那裡退到泰爾和西頓境內。 22 那地方有個迦南的婦人前來大聲懇求耶穌：「主啊！大衛的後裔啊！可憐我吧！我的女兒被鬼附身，受盡折磨！」 23 耶穌卻一言不發。門徒上前求祂說：「請讓她走吧！她老是在後面喊叫。」
24 耶穌說：「我奉差遣只是來尋找以色列家迷失的羊。」
25 那婦人上前跪下，說：「主啊！求你幫幫我吧！」
26 耶穌答道：「把兒女的食物丟給狗吃，不合適。」
27 婦人說：「主啊，沒錯，可是狗也吃主人飯桌上掉下來的碎渣呀！」
28 耶穌說：「婦人，你的信心真大！我答應你的要求。」就在那一刻，她女兒就好了。
耶穌使四千人吃飽
29 耶穌離開那裡，來到加利利湖邊，上了山，在那裡坐下。 30 大群的人把瘸子、瞎子、殘疾的、啞巴及許多別的病人帶來，放在祂腳前，祂就治好了他們。 31 大家看見啞巴說話，殘疾的復原，瘸子走路，瞎子看見，都很驚奇，就讚美以色列的上帝。
32 耶穌把門徒召集過來，對他們說：「我憐憫這些人，他們跟我在一起已經三天，沒有任何吃的。我不願讓他們餓著肚子回去，以免他們在路上體力不支。」
33 門徒說：「在這荒野，我們到哪裡找足夠的食物給這麼多人吃呢？」
34 耶穌問：「你們有多少餅？」
門徒答道：「七個，還有幾條小魚。」
35 耶穌便吩咐大家坐在地上。 36 祂拿著那七個餅和幾條魚祝謝後，掰開，遞給門徒，門徒再分給大家。 37 大家都吃了，並且吃飽了，剩下的零碎裝滿了七個筐子。 38 當時吃飯的，除了婦女和小孩，共有四千男人。 39 隨後，耶穌叫眾人散去，自己坐船去了馬加丹地區。
Matthew 15
Contemporary English Version
The Teaching of the Ancestors
(Mark 7.1-13)
15 About this time some Pharisees and teachers of the Law of Moses came from Jerusalem. They asked Jesus, 2 “Why don't your disciples obey what our ancestors taught us to do? They don't even wash their hands[a] before they eat.”
3 Jesus answered:
Why do you disobey God and follow your own teaching? 4 (A) Didn't God command you to respect your father and mother? Didn't he tell you to put to death all who curse their parents? 5 But you let people get by without helping their parents when they should. You let them say that what they have has been offered to God.[b] 6 Is this any way to show respect to your parents? You ignore God's commands in order to follow your own teaching. 7 And you are nothing but show-offs! Isaiah the prophet was right when he wrote that God had said,
8 (B) “All of you praise me
with your words,
but you never really
think about me.
9 It is useless for you
to worship me,
when you teach rules
made up by humans.”
What Really Makes People Unclean
(Mark 7.14-23)
10 Jesus called the crowd together and said, “Pay attention and try to understand what I mean. 11 The food you put into your mouth doesn't make you unclean and unfit to worship God. The bad words that come out of your mouth are what make you unclean.”
12 Then his disciples came over to him and asked, “Do you know you insulted the Pharisees by what you said?”
13 Jesus answered, “Every plant that my Father in heaven did not plant will be pulled up by the roots. 14 (C) Stay away from those Pharisees! They are like blind people leading other blind people, and all of them will fall into a ditch.”
15 Peter replied, “What did you mean when you talked about the things that make people unclean?”
16 Jesus then said:
Don't any of you know by now what I am talking about? 17 Don't you know that the food you put into your mouth goes into your stomach and then out of your body? 18 (D) But the words that come out of your mouth come from your heart. And they are what make you unfit to worship God. 19 Out of your heart come evil thoughts, murder, unfaithfulness in marriage, vulgar deeds, stealing, telling lies, and insulting others. 20 These are what make you unclean. Eating without washing your hands will not make you unfit to worship God.
A Woman's Faith
(Mark 7.24-30)
21 Jesus left and went to the territory near the towns of Tyre and Sidon. 22 Suddenly a Canaanite woman[c] from there came out shouting, “Lord and Son of David,[d] have pity on me! My daughter is full of demons.” 23 Jesus did not say a word. But the woman kept following along and shouting, so his disciples came up and asked him to send her away.
24 Jesus said, “I was sent only to the people of Israel! They are like a flock of lost sheep.”
25 The woman came closer. Then she knelt down and begged, “Please help me, Lord!”
26 Jesus replied, “It isn't right to take food away from children and feed it to dogs.”[e]
27 “Lord, this is true,” the woman said, “but even puppies get the crumbs that fall from their owner's table.”
28 Jesus answered, “Dear woman, you really do have a lot of faith, and you will be given what you want.” At that moment her daughter was healed.
Jesus Heals Many People
29 From there, Jesus went along Lake Galilee. Then he climbed a hill and sat down. 30 Large crowds came and brought many people who were paralyzed or blind or lame or unable to talk. They placed them, and many others, in front of Jesus, and he healed them all. 31 Everyone was amazed at what they saw and heard. People who had never spoken could now speak. The lame were healed, the paralyzed could walk, and the blind were able to see. Everyone was praising the God of Israel.
Jesus Feeds Four Thousand
(Mark 8.1-10)
32 Jesus called his disciples together and told them, “I feel sorry for these people. They have been with me for three days, and they don't have anything to eat. I don't want to send them away hungry. They might faint on their way home.”
33 His disciples said, “This place is like a desert. Where can we find enough food to feed such a crowd?”
34 Jesus asked them how much food they had. They replied, “Seven small loaves of bread[f] and a few little fish.”
35 After Jesus had told the people to sit down, 36 he took the seven loaves of bread and the fish and gave thanks. He then broke them and handed them to his disciples, who passed them around to the crowds.
37 Everyone ate all they wanted, and the leftovers filled seven large baskets.
38 There were 4,000 men who ate, not counting the women and children.
39 After Jesus had sent the crowds away, he got into a boat and sailed across the lake. He came to shore near the town of Magadan.[g]
