And in vain do they worship me, teaching instructions that are the commandments of humans.'

Again he departed from the borders of Tyre, and came through Sidon to the sea of Galilee, through the midst of the region of Decapolis.
They brought to him one who was deaf and had a speech difficulty, and they begged Jesus to lay his hand on him.
He took him aside from the crowd, privately, and put his fingers into his ears, and he spat, and touched his tongue.
Looking up to heaven, he sighed, and said to him, "Ephphatha." that is, "Be opened."
And his ears were opened, and the impediment of his tongue was released, and he spoke clearly.
He commanded them that they should tell no one, but the more he commanded them, so much the more widely they proclaimed it.
They were astonished beyond measure, saying, "He has done all things well. He makes even the deaf hear, and the mute speak."
