15 Then Pharisees and scribes came to Jesus from Jerusalem, saying, “Why do your disciples disobey the tradition of the elders? For they don’t wash their hands when they eat bread.”

He answered them, “Why do you also disobey the commandment of God because of your tradition? For God commanded, ‘Honor your father and your mother,’Exodus 20:12; Deuteronomy 5:16 and, ‘He who speaks evil of father or mother, let him be put to death.’Exodus 21:17; Leviticus 20:9 But you say, ‘Whoever may tell his father or his mother, “Whatever help you might otherwise have gotten from me is a gift devoted to God,” he shall not honor his father or mother.’ You have made the commandment of God void because of your tradition. You hypocrites! Well did Isaiah prophesy of you, saying,

‘These people draw near to me with their mouth,
    and honor me with their lips;
    but their heart is far from me.
And in vain do they worship me,
    teaching as doctrine rules made by men.’”Isaiah 29:13

10 He summoned the multitude, and said to them, “Hear, and understand. 11 That which enters into the mouth doesn’t defile the man; but that which proceeds out of the mouth, this defiles the man.”

12 Then the disciples came, and said to him, “Do you know that the Pharisees were offended when they heard this saying?”

13 But he answered, “Every plant which my heavenly Father didn’t plant will be uprooted. 14 Leave them alone. They are blind guides of the blind. If the blind guide the blind, both will fall into a pit.”

15 Peter answered him, “Explain the parable to us.”

16 So Jesus said, “Do you also still not understand? 17 Don’t you understand that whatever goes into the mouth passes into the belly and then out of the body? 18 But the things which proceed out of the mouth come out of the heart, and they defile the man. 19 For out of the heart come evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, sexual sins, thefts, false testimony, and blasphemies. 20 These are the things which defile the man; but to eat with unwashed hands doesn’t defile the man.”

21 Jesus went out from there and withdrew into the region of Tyre and Sidon. 22 Behold, a Canaanite woman came out from those borders and cried, saying, “Have mercy on me, Lord, you son of David! My daughter is severely possessed by a demon!”

23 But he answered her not a word.

His disciples came and begged him, saying, “Send her away; for she cries after us.”

24 But he answered, “I wasn’t sent to anyone but the lost sheep of the house of Israel.”

25 But she came and worshiped him, saying, “Lord, help me.”

26 But he answered, “It is not appropriate to take the children’s bread and throw it to the dogs.”

27 But she said, “Yes, Lord, but even the dogs eat the crumbs which fall from their masters’ table.”

28 Then Jesus answered her, “Woman, great is your faith! Be it done to you even as you desire.” And her daughter was healed from that hour.

29 Jesus departed from there and came near to the sea of Galilee; and he went up into the mountain and sat there. 30 Great multitudes came to him, having with them the lame, blind, mute, maimed, and many others, and they put them down at his feet. He healed them, 31 so that the multitude wondered when they saw the mute speaking, the injured healed, the lame walking, and the blind seeing—and they glorified the God of Israel.

32 Jesus summoned his disciples and said, “I have compassion on the multitude, because they have continued with me now three days and have nothing to eat. I don’t want to send them away fasting, or they might faint on the way.”

33 The disciples said to him, “Where could we get so many loaves in a deserted place as to satisfy so great a multitude?”

34 Jesus said to them, “How many loaves do you have?”

They said, “Seven, and a few small fish.”

35 He commanded the multitude to sit down on the ground; 36 and he took the seven loaves and the fish. He gave thanks and broke them, and gave to the disciples, and the disciples to the multitudes. 37 They all ate and were filled. They took up seven baskets full of the broken pieces that were left over. 38 Those who ate were four thousand men, in addition to women and children. 39 Then he sent away the multitudes, got into the boat, and came into the borders of Magdala.

15 Then tote Pharisees Pharisaios and kai scribes grammateus came proserchomai to ho Jesus Iēsous from apo Jerusalem Hierosolyma, saying legō, Why dia tis do · ho your sy disciples mathētēs break parabainō the ho tradition paradosis of the ho elders presbyteros? For gar they do not ou wash niptō · ho their autos hands cheir when hotan they eat esthiō bread artos.” But de he ho answered apokrinomai them autos, saying legō, “ And kai why dia tis do you hymeis break parabainō the ho commandment entolē of ho God theos for dia the sake of · ho your hymeis tradition paradosis? · ho For gar God theos said legō, ‘ Honor timaō your ho father patēr and kai your ho mother mētēr,’ and kai, ‘ Whoever ho speaks kakologeō evil of his father patēr or ē mother mētēr must be put teleutaō to death thanatos.’ But de you hymeis say legō, ‘ Whoever hos an says legō to his ho father patēr or ē his ho mother mētēr, “ Whatever hos benefit you might have received ōpheleō from ek me egō is a gift dōron to God,” he need not ou mē honor timaō · ho his autos father patēr.’ So kai you have nullified akyroō the ho word logos of ho God theos for dia the sake of · ho your hymeis tradition paradosis. You hypocrites hypokritēs! Well kalōs did Isaiah ēsaias prophesy prophēteuō about peri you hymeis, when he said legō: · ho This houtos people laos honors timaō me egō with their ho lips cheilos, · ho but de their autos hearts kardia are apechō far porrō from apo me egō. And de in vain matēn do they worship sebō me egō, teaching didaskō as doctrines didaskalia the commandments entalma of men anthrōpos.’”

10 And kai he called proskaleō the ho crowd ochlos to him and said legō to them autos, “ Hear akouō and kai understand syniēmi: 11 It is not ou what ho goes eiserchomai into eis the ho mouth stoma that defiles koinoō a ho person anthrōpos, but alla what ho comes ekporeuomai out of ek the ho mouth stoma; this houtos defiles koinoō a ho person anthrōpos.”

12 Then tote the ho disciples mathētēs came proserchomai and said legō to him autos, “ Do you know oida that hoti the ho Pharisees Pharisaios were offended skandalizō when they heard akouō what ho you said logos?” 13 And de he ho answered apokrinomai, saying legō, “ Every pas plant phyteia that hos my egō heavenly ouranios Father patēr did not ou plant phyteuō · ho · ho will be rooted ekrizoō up . 14 Leave aphiēmi them autos be! They are eimi blind typhlos guides hodēgos. And de if ean a blind typhlos man guides hodēgeō a blind typhlos man , both amphoteroi will fall piptō into eis a pit bothunos.”

15 Then de Peter Petros answered apokrinomai · ho him autos, saying legō, “ Explain phrazō this houtos parable parabolē to us hēmeis.” · ho 16 And de he ho said legō, “ Are eimi you hymeis without understanding asynetos even kai now akmēn? 17 Do you not ou understand noeō that hoti everything pas that ho goes eisporeuomai into eis the ho mouth stoma passes chōreō through eis the ho stomach koilia and kai is expelled ekballō into eis the latrine aphedrōn? 18 But de the ho things that go ekporeuomai out of ek the ho mouth stoma come exerchomai from ek the ho heart kardia, and these kakeinos defile koinoō the ho person anthrōpos. 19 For gar out ek of the ho heart kardia come exerchomai evil ponēros thoughts dialogismos, murder phonos, adultery moicheia, sexual porneia immorality , theft klopē, false pseudomartyria witness , slander blasphēmia. 20 These houtos are eimi the ho things that defile koinoō a ho person anthrōpos, · ho but de to eat esthiō with unwashed aniptos hands cheir does not ou defile koinoō a ho person anthrōpos.”

21 And kai leaving exerchomai there ekeithen, · ho Jesus Iēsous withdrew anachōreō into eis the ho region meros of Tyre Tyros and kai Sidon Sidōn. 22 And kai a Canaanite Chananaios woman gynē from apo · ho that ekeinos region horion came exerchomai out and began to shout krazō, saying legō, “ Have mercy eleeō on me egō, O Lord kyrios, Son hyios of David Dauid; · ho my egō daughter thugatēr is horribly kakōs demon-possessed daimonizomai.” 23 But de he ho answered apokrinomai her autos not ou a word logos. And kai his autos disciples mathētēs came proserchomai · ho and urged erōtaō him autos, saying legō, “ Send apolyō her autos away, because hoti she keeps shouting krazō after opisthen us hēmeis.” 24 But de he ho answered apokrinomai, saying legō, “ I was not ou sent apostellō except ei mē to eis the ho lost apollymi sheep probaton · ho of the house oikos of Israel Israēl.” 25 Then de she ho came erchomai and knelt proskyneō before him autos, saying legō, “ Lord kyrios, help boētheō me egō!” 26 And de he ho answered apokrinomai, “ It is eimi not ou right kalos to take lambanō · ho bread artos from the ho children teknon and kai toss ballō it to the ho dogs kynarion.” 27  Yes nai, Lord kyrios,” she ho · de said legō, “ but gar even kai the ho dogs kynarion feed esthiō on apo the ho crumbs psichion that ho fall piptō from apo · ho their autos masters’ kyrios table trapeza.” · ho 28 Then tote Jesus Iēsous answered apokrinomai, · ho saying legō to her autos, “ O ō woman gynē, great megas is your sy · ho faith pistis!
