The Things that Truly Please God(A)
7 When some Pharisees and some ·teachers of the law [scribes] came from Jerusalem, they gathered around Jesus. 2 They saw that some of Jesus’ ·followers [disciples] ate food with hands that were not clean, that is, they hadn’t [ceremonially] washed them. 3 ([For] The Pharisees and all the Jews never eat before washing their hands ·in the way required [L with a fist; C the meaning of the idiom is uncertain; it could mean “with a handful of water,” “with cupped hand,” “up to the wrist” or something else] by ·their unwritten laws [L the traditions of the elders]. 4 ·And when they buy something in the market, they never eat it [or, And when they come from the market (where they might have touched something “unclean”), they do not eat] until they wash themselves in a special way. They also ·follow [hold fast to; observe] many other ·unwritten laws [traditions], such as the washing of cups, pitchers, and pots.[a])
5 The Pharisees and the ·teachers of the law [scribes] asked Jesus, “Why don’t your ·followers [disciples] ·obey [walk according to] the ·unwritten laws which have been handed down to us [traditions of the elders]? Why do they eat their food with hands that are ·not clean [defiled]?”
6 Jesus answered, “Isaiah was right when he ·spoke [prophesied] about you hypocrites. ·He wrote [As it is written],
‘These people show honor to me with ·words [L their lips],
but their hearts are far from me.
7 Their worship of me is ·worthless [futile; in vain].
The things they teach are nothing but human ·rules [commandments; Is. 29:13].’
8 You ·have stopped following [neglected; abandoned] the commands of God, and you ·follow [hold on to] only human ·teachings[b] [traditions].”
9 Then Jesus said to them, “You ·cleverly ignore [are very good at ignoring/despising] the commands of God so you can follow your own ·teachings [tradition]. 10 [For] Moses said, ‘Honor your father and your mother’ [Ex. 20:12; Deut. 5:16], and ‘Anyone who ·says cruel things to [speaks evil of; curses] his father or mother must be put to death’ [Ex. 21:17; Lev. 20:9]. 11 But you say a person can tell his father or mother, ‘I have something I could use to help you, but it is Corban—a gift to God.’ [C Corban is a Hebrew term meaning dedicated or set aside to God.] 12 You no longer let that person ·use that money [do anything] for his father or his mother. 13 By your own ·rules [tradition], which you ·teach people [have handed down], you are ·rejecting [nullifying; canceling] what God said. And you do many things like that.”
14 After Jesus called the crowd to him again, he said, “Listen to me, everyone, and understand what I am saying. 15 There is nothing people put into their bodies that ·makes them unclean [pollutes/defiles them]. [But rather] People are ·made unclean [polluted; defiled] by the things that come out of them. |16 ·Let those with ears use them and listen [see 4:23].|”[c]
17 When Jesus left the ·people [crowd] and went into the house, his ·followers [disciples] asked him about this ·story [parable; see 3:23]. 18 Jesus said, “·Do you still not understand [Are you so dull]? ·Surely you know [L Don’t you know…?] that nothing that enters someone from the outside can make that person ·unclean [polluted; defiled]. 19 [Because] It does not go into the ·mind [heart], but into the stomach. Then it goes ·out of the body [L into the sewer/latrine].” ·(When Jesus said this, he meant that no longer was any food unclean for people to eat.) [or, (In this way, Jesus cleansed all food.)]
20 And Jesus said, “The things that come out of people are the things that make them ·unclean [defiled]. 21 ·All these evil things begin inside people, in the mind [L For from within, out of human hearts, come]: evil ·thoughts [intentions; ideas], sexual sins, stealing, murder, adultery, 22 greed, ·evil actions [wickedness], ·lying [deceit], ·doing sinful things [indecency; lust; lewdness], ·jealousy [envy; L evil eye], ·speaking evil of others [slander; blasphemy], pride, and foolish living. 23 All these evil things come from inside and make people ·unclean [defiled].”
Jesus Helps a Gentile Woman(B)
24 Jesus left that place and went to the area around Tyre[d] [C a Gentile city on the coast north of Israel]. When he went into a house, he did not want anyone to know he was there, but he could not stay hidden. 25 A woman whose daughter had an ·evil [defiling; L unclean] spirit in her heard that he was there. So she ·quickly [immediately] came to Jesus and ·fell [bowed] at his feet. 26 She was ·Greek [a Gentile; C “Greek” is sometimes used for any non-Jew; Rom. 1:16], born in Phoenicia, in Syria. She ·begged [kept asking] Jesus to ·force [drive; cast] the demon out of her daughter.
27 Jesus told the woman, “It is not right to take the children’s bread and ·give [throw] it to the dogs. First let the children eat all they want.” [C “Children” refers to Israel; “dogs” to the Gentiles.]
28 But she answered, “Yes, Lord, but even the dogs under the table can eat the children’s crumbs.”
29 Then Jesus said, “Because of your answer, you may go. The demon has left your daughter.”
30 The woman went home and found her daughter lying in bed; the demon was gone.
Jesus Heals a Deaf Man(C)
31 Then Jesus left the area around Tyre and went through Sidon to Lake Galilee [T the Sea of Galilee], to the area of ·the Ten Towns [or Decapolis; C an area east of Lake Galilee that once had ten main towns; 5:20]. 32 While he was there, some people brought a man to him who was deaf and ·could not talk plainly [had a speech impediment]. The people begged Jesus to put his hand on the man to heal him.
33 Jesus led the man away from the crowd, by himself. He put his fingers in the man’s ears and then spit and touched the man’s tongue. [C The use of saliva is mentioned in other ancient accounts of healing, and elsewhere in the Gospels; see 8:23; John 9:6.] 34 Looking up to heaven, he sighed and said to the man, “Ephphatha!” (This means [C in Aramaic], “Be opened.”) 35 Instantly the man was able to hear and to use his tongue so that he spoke clearly.
36 Jesus ·commanded [ordered; instructed] the people not to tell anyone about what happened. But the more he ·commanded [ordered; instructed] them, the more they ·told about [proclaimed] it. 37 They were completely amazed and said, “Jesus does everything well. He makes the deaf hear! And ·those who can’t talk [the mute] he makes able to speak.”

Mga Nakaugaliang Katuruan(A)
7 Lumapit kay Jesus ang mga Pariseo kasama ang ilang tagapagturo ng Kautusan na galing pa sa Jerusalem. 2 Nakita nila ang ilan sa mga alagad niya na kumakain nang marumi ang mga kamay dahil hindi nahugasan ayon sa kaugalian ng mga Judio.
3 (Sapagkat ang mga Judio, lalo na ang mga Pariseo, ay hindi kumakain hangga't hindi muna sila nakapaghuhugas ng kamay ayon sa kaugaliang minana nila mula sa kanilang mga ninuno. 4 Hindi rin sila kumakain ng anumang galing sa palengke nang hindi muna ito hinuhugasan.[a] Marami pa silang sinusunod na katuruang minana, tulad ng paghuhugas ng mga tasa, pitsel, sisidlang tanso, [at mga higaan].[b]) 5 Kaya tinanong si Jesus ng mga Pariseo at ng mga tagapagturo ng Kautusan, “Bakit hindi sumusunod ang mga alagad mo sa mga turo ng ating mga ninuno? Kumakain sila nang hindi man lamang naghuhugas ng kamay ayon sa kaugalian.”
6 Sinagot(B) sila ni Jesus, “Mga mapagkunwari! Tama nga ang sinabi ni Isaias tungkol sa inyo, nang kanyang isulat,
‘Ang paggalang sa akin ng bayang ito ay pakunwari lamang,
sapagkat ito'y sa bibig at hindi sa puso bumubukal.
7 Walang kabuluhan ang kanilang pagsamba,
sapagkat itinuturo nilang galing sa Diyos ang kanilang mga utos.’
8 Binabaliwala ninyo ang utos ng Diyos, at ang sinusunod ninyo'y mga tradisyon ng tao.”
9 Sinabi pa ni Jesus, “Ang gagaling ninyo! Para lamang masunod ang inyong mga tradisyon, pinapawalang-bisa ninyo ang utos ng Diyos! 10 Halimbawa,(C) iniutos ni Moises na ‘Igalang mo ang iyong ama at ina’, at ‘Ang sinumang lumait sa kanyang ama o ina ay dapat patayin.’ 11 Ngunit itinuturo naman ninyo na kapag sinabi ng isang tao sa kanyang ama o ina, ‘Naihandog ko na sa Diyos[c] ang mga tulong ko sa inyo’; 12 ang taong iyon ay hindi na ninyo pinapatulong sa kanilang mga magulang. 13 Sa gayong paraan, pinapawalang-bisa ninyo ang salita ng Diyos sa pamamagitan ng mga itinuturo ninyo. At marami pa kayong ginagawang katulad nito.”
Ang Nagpaparumi sa Tao(D)
14 Muling pinalapit ni Jesus ang mga tao at sinabi sa kanila, “Makinig kayong lahat at unawain ang aking sasabihin! 15 Hindi nagiging marumi ang isang tao dahil sa pagkaing pumapasok sa kanyang bibig, kundi dahil sa lumalabas dito. [16 Makinig ang may pandinig!]”[d]
17 Iniwan ni Jesus ang mga tao, at nang makapasok na siya sa bahay, siya'y tinanong ng kanyang mga alagad tungkol sa talinghaga. 18 “Pati ba naman kayo ay hindi pa rin makaunawa?” tanong ni Jesus. “Hindi ba ninyo alam na hindi nagiging marumi ang isang tao dahil sa pagkaing ipinapasok niya sa kanyang bibig, 19 sapagkat hindi naman iyon pumapasok sa kanyang puso, kundi sa tiyan, at pagkatapos ay idinudumi.” (Sa ganitong paraan ay ipinahayag ni Jesus na ang lahat ng pagkain ay maaaring kainin.)
20 At sinabi rin niya, “Ang lumalabas sa tao ang nagpaparumi sa kanya sa paningin ng Diyos. 21 Sapagkat sa loob, sa puso ng tao, nagmumula ang masasamang isipang nag-uudyok sa kanya upang makiapid, magnakaw, pumatay, 22 mangalunya, mag-imbot, gumawa ng kasamaan tulad ng pandaraya, kahalayan, pagkainggit, paninirang-puri, pagmamayabang, at kahangalan. 23 Ang lahat ng masasamang bagay na ito ay nanggagaling sa puso at dahil sa mga ito ay nagiging marumi ang tao.”
Pinagaling ang Anak ng Babaing Taga-Tiro(E)
24 Umalis doon si Jesus at nagpunta sa lugar na malapit sa Tiro [at ng Sidon].[e] Tumuloy siya sa isang bahay doon at ayaw niyang malaman ninuman na naroon siya. Subalit hindi ganoon ang nangyari. 25 Ang pagdating niya'y nabalitaan ng isang babae na may anak na babaing sinasapian ng masamang espiritu. Pumunta agad kay Jesus ang ina at nagpatirapa sa kanyang harapan. 26 Ang babaing ito'y isang Hentil na taga-Sirofenicia. Nakiusap ito kay Jesus na palayasin ang demonyong sumapi sa kanyang anak. 27 Ngunit sinabi ni Jesus, “Kailangang ang mga anak muna ang pakainin. Hindi dapat kunin ang pagkain ng mga anak upang ihagis sa mga aso.”
28 Tugon ng babae, “Tunay nga po, Panginoon, ngunit maging ang mga asong nasa ilalim ng mesa ay kumakain ng mga nalalaglag mula sa kinakain ng mga anak.”
29 Kaya't sinabi sa kanya ni Jesus, “Dahil sa sinabi mo, maaari ka nang umuwi. Iniwan na ng demonyo ang iyong anak.”
30 Umuwi ang babae at naratnan niya sa higaan ang bata. Iniwan na nga ito ng demonyo.
Ang Pagpapagaling sa Taong Bingi at Pipi
31 Umalis si Jesus mula sa lupain ng Tiro, dumaan sa Sidon at nagtuloy sa Lawa ng Galilea. Tinahak niya ang lupain ng Decapolis. 32 Dinala ng mga tao sa kanya ang isang lalaking bingi at may kapansanan sa pagsasalita, at nakiusap sila sa kanya na ipatong niya rito ang kanyang kamay. 33 Inilayo muna ni Jesus sa karamihan ang lalaki, at isinuot ang kanyang mga daliri sa mga tainga nito. Pagkatapos, dumura si Jesus at ipinahid ito sa dila ng pipi. 34 Tumingala si Jesus sa langit, nagbuntong-hininga at sinabi sa lalaki, “Effata,” na ang ibig sabihi'y, “Mabuksan!”
35 Noon di'y nakarinig ang lalaki at nakapagsalita na nang maayos. 36 Sinabi ni Jesus sa mga tao na huwag ipamalita ito, ngunit habang pinagbabawalan niya ang mga tao ay lalo naman nila itong ipinamamalita. 37 Buong paghangang sinasabi nila, “Napakahusay ng lahat ng kanyang ginagawa! Binibigyan niya ng pandinig ang mga bingi at pinapagsalita ang mga pipi!”

New International Version
That Which Defiles(A)
7 The Pharisees and some of the teachers of the law who had come from Jerusalem gathered around Jesus 2 and saw some of his disciples eating food with hands that were defiled,(B) that is, unwashed. 3 (The Pharisees and all the Jews do not eat unless they give their hands a ceremonial washing, holding to the tradition of the elders.(C) 4 When they come from the marketplace they do not eat unless they wash. And they observe many other traditions, such as the washing of cups, pitchers and kettles.[a])(D)
5 So the Pharisees and teachers of the law asked Jesus, “Why don’t your disciples live according to the tradition of the elders(E) instead of eating their food with defiled hands?”
6 He replied, “Isaiah was right when he prophesied about you hypocrites; as it is written:
“‘These people honor me with their lips,
but their hearts are far from me.
7 They worship me in vain;
their teachings are merely human rules.’[b](F)
8 You have let go of the commands of God and are holding on to human traditions.”(G)
9 And he continued, “You have a fine way of setting aside the commands of God in order to observe[c] your own traditions!(H) 10 For Moses said, ‘Honor your father and mother,’[d](I) and, ‘Anyone who curses their father or mother is to be put to death.’[e](J) 11 But you say(K) that if anyone declares that what might have been used to help their father or mother is Corban (that is, devoted to God)— 12 then you no longer let them do anything for their father or mother. 13 Thus you nullify the word of God(L) by your tradition(M) that you have handed down. And you do many things like that.”
14 Again Jesus called the crowd to him and said, “Listen to me, everyone, and understand this. 15 Nothing outside a person can defile them by going into them. Rather, it is what comes out of a person that defiles them.” [16] [f]
17 After he had left the crowd and entered the house, his disciples asked him(N) about this parable. 18 “Are you so dull?” he asked. “Don’t you see that nothing that enters a person from the outside can defile them? 19 For it doesn’t go into their heart but into their stomach, and then out of the body.” (In saying this, Jesus declared all foods(O) clean.)(P)
20 He went on: “What comes out of a person is what defiles them. 21 For it is from within, out of a person’s heart, that evil thoughts come—sexual immorality, theft, murder, 22 adultery, greed,(Q) malice, deceit, lewdness, envy, slander, arrogance and folly. 23 All these evils come from inside and defile a person.”
Jesus Honors a Syrophoenician Woman’s Faith(R)
24 Jesus left that place and went to the vicinity of Tyre.[g](S) He entered a house and did not want anyone to know it; yet he could not keep his presence secret. 25 In fact, as soon as she heard about him, a woman whose little daughter was possessed by an impure spirit(T) came and fell at his feet. 26 The woman was a Greek, born in Syrian Phoenicia. She begged Jesus to drive the demon out of her daughter.
27 “First let the children eat all they want,” he told her, “for it is not right to take the children’s bread and toss it to the dogs.”
28 “Lord,” she replied, “even the dogs under the table eat the children’s crumbs.”
29 Then he told her, “For such a reply, you may go; the demon has left your daughter.”
30 She went home and found her child lying on the bed, and the demon gone.
Jesus Heals a Deaf and Mute Man(U)
31 Then Jesus left the vicinity of Tyre(V) and went through Sidon, down to the Sea of Galilee(W) and into the region of the Decapolis.[h](X) 32 There some people brought to him a man who was deaf and could hardly talk,(Y) and they begged Jesus to place his hand on(Z) him.
33 After he took him aside, away from the crowd, Jesus put his fingers into the man’s ears. Then he spit(AA) and touched the man’s tongue. 34 He looked up to heaven(AB) and with a deep sigh(AC) said to him, “Ephphatha!” (which means “Be opened!”). 35 At this, the man’s ears were opened, his tongue was loosened and he began to speak plainly.(AD)
36 Jesus commanded them not to tell anyone.(AE) But the more he did so, the more they kept talking about it. 37 People were overwhelmed with amazement. “He has done everything well,” they said. “He even makes the deaf hear and the mute speak.”

New King James Version
Defilement Comes from Within(A)
7 Then (B)the Pharisees and some of the scribes came together to Him, having come from Jerusalem. 2 Now [a]when they saw some of His disciples eat bread with defiled, that is, with (C)unwashed hands, [b]they found fault. 3 For the Pharisees and all the Jews do not eat unless they wash their hands [c]in a special way, holding the (D)tradition of the elders. 4 When they come from the marketplace, they do not eat unless they wash. And there are many other things which they have received and hold, like the washing of cups, pitchers, copper vessels, and couches.
5 (E)Then the Pharisees and scribes asked Him, “Why do Your disciples not walk according to the tradition of the elders, but eat bread with unwashed hands?”
6 He answered and said to them, “Well did Isaiah prophesy of you (F)hypocrites, as it is written:
(G)‘This people honors Me with their lips,
But their heart is far from Me.
7 And in vain they worship Me,
Teaching as doctrines the commandments of men.’
8 For laying aside the commandment of God, you hold the tradition of men—[d]the washing of pitchers and cups, and many other such things you do.”
9 He said to them, “All too well (H)you [e]reject the commandment of God, that you may keep your tradition. 10 For Moses said, (I)‘Honor your father and your mother’; and, (J)‘He who curses father or mother, let him be put to death.’ 11 But you say, ‘If a man says to his father or mother, (K)“Whatever profit you might have received from me is Corban”—’ (that is, a gift to God), 12 then you no longer let him do anything for his father or his mother, 13 making the word of God of no effect through your tradition which you have handed down. And many such things you do.”
14 (L)When He had called all the multitude to Himself, He said to them, “Hear Me, everyone, and (M)understand: 15 There is nothing that enters a man from outside which can defile him; but the things which come out of him, those are the things that (N)defile a man. 16 (O)If[f] anyone has ears to hear, let him hear!”
17 (P)When He had entered a house away from the crowd, His disciples asked Him concerning the parable. 18 So He said to them, (Q)“Are you thus without understanding also? Do you not perceive that whatever enters a man from outside cannot defile him, 19 because it does not enter his heart but his stomach, and is eliminated, [g]thus purifying all foods?” 20 And He said, (R)“What comes out of a man, that defiles a man. 21 (S)For from within, out of the heart of men, (T)proceed evil thoughts, (U)adulteries, (V)fornications, murders, 22 thefts, (W)covetousness, wickedness, (X)deceit, (Y)lewdness, an evil eye, (Z)blasphemy, (AA)pride, foolishness. 23 All these evil things come from within and defile a man.”
A Gentile Shows Her Faith(AB)
24 (AC)From there He arose and went to the region of Tyre [h]and Sidon. And He entered a house and wanted no one to know it, but He could not be (AD)hidden. 25 For a woman whose young daughter had an unclean spirit heard about Him, and she came and (AE)fell at His feet. 26 The woman was a [i]Greek, a [j]Syro-Phoenician by birth, and she kept [k]asking Him to cast the demon out of her daughter. 27 But Jesus said to her, “Let the children be filled first, for it is not good to take the children’s bread and throw it to the little dogs.”
28 And she answered and said to Him, “Yes, Lord, yet even the little dogs under the table eat from the children’s crumbs.”
29 Then He said to her, “For this saying go your way; the demon has gone out of your daughter.”
30 And when she had come to her house, she found the demon gone out, and her daughter lying on the bed.
Jesus Heals a Deaf-Mute(AF)
31 (AG)Again, departing from the region of Tyre and Sidon, He came through the midst of the region of Decapolis to the Sea of Galilee. 32 Then (AH)they brought to Him one who was deaf and had an impediment in his speech, and they begged Him to put His hand on him. 33 And He took him aside from the multitude, and put His fingers in his ears, and (AI)He spat and touched his tongue. 34 Then, (AJ)looking up to heaven, (AK)He sighed, and said to him, “Ephphatha,” that is, “Be opened.”
35 (AL)Immediately his ears were opened, and the [l]impediment of his tongue was loosed, and he spoke plainly. 36 Then (AM)He commanded them that they should tell no one; but the more He commanded them, the more widely they proclaimed it. 37 And they were (AN)astonished beyond measure, saying, “He has done all things well. He (AO)makes both the deaf to hear and the mute to speak.”

Священное Писание (Восточный перевод), версия для Таджикистана
О внутренней чистоте(A)
7 Однажды собрались вокруг Него блюстители Закона и некоторые учители Таврота из Иерусалима. 2 Они обратили внимание, что некоторые ученики Исо принимали пищу ритуально нечистыми, то есть неомытыми, руками.[a] 3 Блюстители Закона, и вообще иудеи, строго следуя обычаям своих предков,[b] не садятся есть, не помыв установленным образом руки. 4 Они не едят ничего, принесённого с базара, пока не совершат ритуального омовения. Ими соблюдается также и множество других установлений, как, например, о мытье чаш, кувшинов и медной посуды. 5 Поэтому блюстители Закона и учители Таврота спросили Исо:
– Почему Твои ученики не следуют обычаям предков? Почему они едят нечистыми руками, не омыв их согласно ритуалу?
6 Исо ответил им:
– Прав был Исаия, когда пророчествовал о вас, лицемерах:
«Этот народ чтит Меня на словах,
но сердца их далеки от Меня.
7 Они поклоняются Мне впустую,
потому что их учение состоит из человеческих предписаний»[c].
8 Оставив повеление Всевышнего, вы соблюдаете человеческое предание. 9 Вы ловко умеете подменять повеления Всевышнего вашими собственными традициями. 10 Ведь Всевышний сказал через Мусо: «Почитай отца и мать»[d], и «Кто злословит отца или мать, тот должен быть предан смерти»[e]. 11 Вы же говорите, что если человек скажет отцу или матери: «То, чем я мог бы тебе помочь, – курбан[f] (то есть мой дар Всевышнему)», 12 тогда ему уже позволяется ничего не делать для своего отца или матери.[g] 13 Вы отменяете слово Всевышнего собственным преданием, которое вы установили, и многое, подобное этому, вы делаете.
14 Исо снова подозвал к себе народ и сказал:
– Выслушайте Меня все и постарайтесь понять. 15-16 Ничто из того, что входит в человека извне, не может осквернить его. Оскверняет человека то, что исходит из него.[h]
17 Когда Исо оставил толпу и вошёл в дом, ученики спросили Его об этой притче.
18 – Так и вы тоже не понимаете? – сказал Он им. – Неужели вы не понимаете, что всё, что входит в человека извне, не может осквернить его? 19 Оно входит не в сердце человека, а в его желудок, а потом выходит вон. (Так Он объявил чистой любую пищу.) 20 Но то, что исходит из человека, – продолжал Он, – вот это и оскверняет его. 21 Потому что изнутри, из сердца человека исходят злые мысли, разврат, воровство, убийство, 22 супружеская неверность, жадность, злоба, коварство, распутство, завистливое око[i], клевета, надменность и безрассудство. 23 Всё это зло исходит изнутри, и именно оно оскверняет человека.
Вера язычницы(B)
24 Оттуда Исо отправился в окрестности Тира. Он остановился в одном доме и не хотел, чтобы кто-либо знал о Его приходе, но Ему всё равно не удалось сохранить это в тайне. 25 О приходе Исо узнала одна женщина, маленькая дочь которой была одержима нечистым духом. Эта женщина пришла и пала к Его ногам, 26 а она была язычницей, сирофиникиянкой. И она попросила Исо, чтобы Он изгнал демона из её дочери. 27 Исо сказал ей:
– Пусть сначала наедятся дети, ведь нехорошо будет забрать хлеб у детей и бросить собакам[j].
28 – Да, Повелитель, – ответила женщина, – но ведь и собаки едят под столом крошки, которые роняют дети.
29 – За твой ответ, – сказал ей Исо, – иди, демон вышел из твоей дочери.
30 Она пошла домой и увидела, что её дочь лежит в постели, а демон из неё вышел.
Исцеление глухого и косноязычного человека(C)
31 Возвращаясь из окрестностей Тира, Исо через Сидон вышел к Галилейскому озеру в области Десяти городов. 32 Там к Исо привели глухого и косноязычного человека и попросили возложить на него руку. 33 Исо отвёл его в сторону, вложил Свои пальцы ему в уши, затем сплюнул Себе на пальцы и прикоснулся ими к языку человека. 34 Потом Он поднял глаза к небу, тяжело вздохнул и сказал:
– Иппаттах!
Это означает: «Откройся!»
35 К человеку тотчас же вернулся слух, скованный язык стал двигаться, и он начал говорить ясно. 36 Исо запретил людям рассказывать об этом исцелении. Однако чем больше Он запрещал, тем больше они рассказывали. 37 Их удивлению не было предела.
– Всё, что Он делает – хорошо, – говорили люди. – У Него и глухие начинают слышать, и немые – говорить!
