Mark 7:14-23
1599 Geneva Bible
14 (A)Then he calleth the whole multitude unto him, and said unto them, Hearken you all unto me, and understand.
15 There is nothing without a man, that can defile him, when it entereth into him: but the things which proceed out of him, are they which defile the man.
16 If any have ears to hear, let him hear.
17 And when he came into an house, away from the people, his disciples asked him concerning the parable.
18 And he said unto them, What? are ye without understanding also? Do ye not know that whatsoever thing from without entereth into a man, cannot defile him,
19 Because it entered not into his heart, but into the belly, and goeth out into the draught which is the [a]purging of all meats?
20 Then he said, That which cometh out of man, that defileth man.
21 (B)For from within, even out of the heart of men, proceed evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders,
22 Thefts, [b]covetousness, wickedness, deceit, uncleanness, a [c]wicked eye, backbiting, pride, foolishness.
23 All these evil things come from within, and defile a man.
