Matthew 15
1 Then the scribes and Pharisees from Jerusalem approached Jesus saying:
τοτε προσερχονται τω ιησου οι απο ιεροσολυμων γραμματεις και φαρισαιοι λεγοντες
2 “Why do your disciples transgress the tradition of the elders? For they do not wash their hands whenever they eat bread.”
δια τι οι μαθηται σου παραβαινουσιν την παραδοσιν των πρεσβυτερων ου γαρ νιπτονται τας χειρας αυτων οταν αρτον εσθιωσιν
3 So in answer He said to them: “Why do you even transgress the commandment of God through your tradition?
ο δε αποκριθεις ειπεν αυτοις δια τι και υμεις παραβαινετε την εντολην του θεου δια την παραδοσιν υμων
4 For God commanded saying, ‘Honor your father and your mother,’ and ‘He who curses father or mother, let him be put to death.’
ο γαρ θεος ενετειλατο λεγων τιμα τον πατερα και την μητερα και ο κακολογων πατερα η μητερα θανατω τελευτατω
5 But you say: ‘Whoever says to his father or mother, “Whatever you might be profited by me is a gift to God”—
υμεις δε λεγετε ος αν ειπη τω πατρι η τη μητρι δωρον ο εαν εξ εμου ωφεληθης και ου μη τιμηση τον πατερα αυτου η την μητερα αυτου
6 then he must not honor his father or mother.’ Thus you have nullified the commandment of God through your tradition.
και ηκυρωσατε την εντολην του θεου δια την παραδοσιν υμων
7 Hypocrites! Well did Isaiah prophesy about you saying:
υποκριται καλως προεφητευσεν περι υμων ησαιας λεγων
8 ‘These people draw near to Me with their mouth and honor Me with their lips, but their heart is far away from Me.
εγγιζει μοι ο λαος ουτος τω στοματι αυτων και τοις χειλεσιν με τιμα η δε καρδια αυτων πορρω απεχει απ εμου
9 But in vain do they worship Me, teaching as doctrines the commandments of men.’”
ματην δε σεβονται με διδασκοντες διδασκαλιας ενταλματα ανθρωπων
10 Then summoning the crowd He said to them: “Hear and understand.
και προσκαλεσαμενος τον οχλον ειπεν αυτοις ακουετε και συνιετε
11 Not what goes into the mouth defiles the man, but what comes out of the mouth—this defiles the man.”
ου το εισερχομενον εις το στομα κοινοι τον ανθρωπον αλλα το εκπορευομενον εκ του στοματος τουτο κοινοι τον ανθρωπον
12 Then His disciples came and said to Him, “Do you know that upon hearing this saying the Pharisees were offended?”
τοτε προσελθοντες οι μαθηται αυτου ειπον αυτω οιδας οτι οι φαρισαιοι ακουσαντες τον λογον εσκανδαλισθησαν
13 But in answer He said: “Every plant that my heavenly Father did not plant will be uprooted.
ο δε αποκριθεις ειπεν πασα φυτεια ην ουκ εφυτευσεν ο πατηρ μου ο ουρανιος εκριζωθησεται
14 Leave them alone. They are blind guides of the blind; and if the blind guides the blind, both will fall into a ditch.”
αφετε αυτους οδηγοι εισιν τυφλοι τυφλων τυφλος δε τυφλον εαν οδηγη αμφοτεροι εις βοθυνον πεσουνται
15 Then Peter answered and said to Him, “Explain this parable to us.”
αποκριθεις δε ο πετρος ειπεν αυτω φρασον ημιν την παραβολην ταυτην
16 So Jesus said: “Are you also still without understanding?
ο δε ιησους ειπεν ακμην και υμεις ασυνετοι εστε
17 Do you not yet understand that whatever enters the mouth goes into the stomach and is expelled into the sewer?
ουπω νοειτε οτι παν το εισπορευομενον εις το στομα εις την κοιλιαν χωρει και εις αφεδρωνα εκβαλλεται
18 But the things coming out of the mouth actually come from the heart; those are the things that defile the man.
τα δε εκπορευομενα εκ του στοματος εκ της καρδιας εξερχεται κακεινα κοινοι τον ανθρωπον
19 Because out of the heart proceed malignant thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness, blasphemies.
εκ γαρ της καρδιας εξερχονται διαλογισμοι πονηροι φονοι μοιχειαι πορνειαι κλοπαι ψευδομαρτυριαι βλασφημιαι
20 These are the things that defile the man, but to eat with unwashed hands does not defile the man.”
ταυτα εστιν τα κοινουντα τον ανθρωπον το δε ανιπτοις χερσιν φαγειν ου κοινοι τον ανθρωπον
21 Going out from there Jesus withdrew into the region of Tyre and Sidon.
και εξελθων εκειθεν ο ιησους ανεχωρησεν εις τα μερη τυρου και σιδωνος
22 And then, a Canaanite woman coming from those parts cried out to Him saying: “Have mercy on me, Lord, Son of David! My daughter is severely demonized.”
και ιδου γυνη χαναναια απο των οριων εκεινων εξελθουσα εκραυγασεν αυτω λεγουσα ελεησον με κυριε υιε δαυιδ η θυγατηρ μου κακως δαιμονιζεται
23 But He answered her not a word. So His disciples came and urged Him saying, “Send her away, because she is crying out after us.”
ο δε ουκ απεκριθη αυτη λογον και προσελθοντες οι μαθηται αυτου ηρωτων αυτον λεγοντες απολυσον αυτην οτι κραζει οπισθεν ημων
24 But in answer He said, “I was not sent except to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.”
ο δε αποκριθεις ειπεν ουκ απεσταλην ει μη εις τα προβατα τα απολωλοτα οικου ισραηλ
25 So she came and worshiped Him saying, “Lord, help me!”
η δε ελθουσα προσεκυνησεν αυτω λεγουσα κυριε βοηθει μοι
26 But in answer He said, “It is not good to take the children's bread and throw it to the little dogs.”
ο δε αποκριθεις ειπεν ουκ εστιν καλον λαβειν τον αρτον των τεκνων και βαλειν τοις κυναριοις
27 So she said, “Yes, Lord, yet even the little dogs eat the crumbs that fall from their masters' table.”
η δε ειπεν ναι κυριε και γαρ τα κυναρια εσθιει απο των ψιχιων των πιπτοντων απο της τραπεζης των κυριων αυτων
28 Then Jesus answered and said to her: “O woman, great is your faith! Let it be to you as you desire.” And her daughter was healed from that very hour.
τοτε αποκριθεις ο ιησους ειπεν αυτη ω γυναι μεγαλη σου η πιστις γενηθητω σοι ως θελεις και ιαθη η θυγατηρ αυτης απο της ωρας εκεινης
29 Moving on from there, Jesus went alongside the Sea of Galilee, and going up on the mountain He sat down there.
και μεταβας εκειθεν ο ιησους ηλθεν παρα την θαλασσαν της γαλιλαιας και αναβας εις το ορος εκαθητο εκει
30 And large crowds approached Him, having with them lame, blind, mute, maimed and many others, and they placed them at Jesus' feet, and He healed them.
και προσηλθον αυτω οχλοι πολλοι εχοντες μεθ εαυτων χωλους τυφλους κωφους κυλλους και ετερους πολλους και ερριψαν αυτους παρα τους ποδας του ιησου και εθεραπευσεν αυτους
31 So the crowds marveled—seeing mutes speaking, maimed made whole, lame walking, and blind seeing—and they kept glorifying the God of Israel.
ωστε τους οχλους θαυμασαι βλεποντας κωφους λαλουντας κυλλους υγιεις χωλους περιπατουντας και τυφλους βλεποντας και εδοξασαν τον θεον ισραηλ
32 Then Jesus summoned His disciples and said: “I have compassion on the crowd, because they have already remained with me three days, and have nothing to eat; and I do not want to send them away hungry, lest they faint on the way.”
ο δε ιησους προσκαλεσαμενος τους μαθητας αυτου ειπεν σπλαγχνιζομαι επι τον οχλον οτι ηδη ημεραι τρεις προσμενουσιν μοι και ουκ εχουσιν τι φαγωσιν και απολυσαι αυτους νηστεις ου θελω μηποτε εκλυθωσιν εν τη οδω
33 So His disciples say to Him, “Where could we get, in an uninhabited place, enough bread so as to satisfy such a great crowd?”
και λεγουσιν αυτω οι μαθηται αυτου ποθεν ημιν εν ερημια αρτοι τοσουτοι ωστε χορτασαι οχλον τοσουτον
34 Jesus says to them, “How many loaves do you have?” And they said, “Seven, and a few small fish.”
και λεγει αυτοις ο ιησους ποσους αρτους εχετε οι δε ειπον επτα και ολιγα ιχθυδια
35 So He commanded the crowds to recline on the ground.
και εκελευσεν τοις οχλοις αναπεσειν επι την γην
36 And taking the seven loaves and the fish, He gave thanks, broke and gave to His disciples, and the disciples to the crowd.
και λαβων τους επτα αρτους και τους ιχθυας ευχαριστησας εκλασεν και εδωκεν τοις μαθηταις αυτου οι δε μαθηται τω οχλω
37 So they all ate and were filled; and they took up seven hampers full of the fragments that remained.
και εφαγον παντες και εχορτασθησαν και ηραν το περισσευον των κλασματων επτα σπυριδας πληρεις
38 Now those who ate were four thousand men, besides women and children.
οι δε εσθιοντες ησαν τετρακισχιλιοι ανδρες χωρις γυναικων και παιδιων
39 And having dismissed the crowds He got into the boat and went to the region of Magdala.
και απολυσας τους οχλους ενεβη εις το πλοιον και ηλθεν εις τα ορια μαγδαλα
