Mark 7
1 And the Pharisees and certain ones of the scribes, having come from Jerusalem, gather to Him.
And the Pharisees and some of the scribes, coming from Jerusalem, are gathered together to him,
2 And seeing certain ones of His disciples eating bread with defiled, that is, unwashed hands.
and seeing some of his disciples eat bread with defiled, that is, unwashed, hands,
3 For the Pharisees and all the Jews, unless they diligently wash their hands, do not eat, holding the tradition of the elders.
(for the Pharisees and all the Jews, unless they wash their hands diligently, do not eat, holding what has been delivered by the ancients;
4 And from the forum, unless they may baptize themselves, they do not eat: and many other things which they have received to hold, the baptism of cups, and pots, and brazen vessels, and couches.
and [on coming] from the market-place, unless they are washed, they do not eat; and there are many other things which they have received to hold, the washing of cups and vessels, and brazen utensils, and couches),
5 Then the Pharisees and scribes asked Him, Wherefore do not thy disciples walk according to the tradition of the elders: but they eat bread with unwashed hands?
then the Pharisees and the scribes ask him, Why do thy disciples not walk according to what has been delivered by the ancients, but eat the bread with defiled hands?
6 And responding He said to them, Beautifully did Isaiah prophesy concerning you hypocrites, as has been written, This people honor me with lips, but their heart is far from me.
But he answering said to them, Well did Esaias prophesy concerning you hypocrites, as it is written, This people honour me with their lips, but their heart is far away from me.
7 In vain do they worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men.
But in vain do they worship me, teaching [as their] teachings commandments of men.
8 For having left the commandment of God, you are holding the tradition of men.
[For], leaving the commandment of God, ye hold what is delivered by men [to keep] — washings of vessels and cups, and many other such like things ye do.
9 And He said to them, Truly, you make void the commandment of God, that you may hold your own tradition.
And he said to them, Well do ye set aside the commandment of God, that ye may observe what is delivered by yourselves [to keep].
10 For Moses said, Honor thy father and thy mother; and let the one speaking evil of father and mother die the death.
For Moses said, Honour thy father and thy mother; and, he who speaks ill of father or mother, let him surely die.
11 But you say, If a man may say to father or mother, Corban, that is a gift, whatsoever you may be profited by me;
But ye say, If a man say to his father or his mother, [It is] corban (that is, gift), whatsoever thou mightest have profit from me by...
12 and you no longer permit him to do anything for his father or mother;
And ye no longer suffer him to do anything for his father or his mother;
13 making void the word of God by your tradition, which you have given: and you do many such similar things.
making void the word of God by your traditional teaching which ye have delivered; and many such like things ye do.
14 And calling the crowd to Him again, He said to them, Hear all ye, and understand.
And having called again the crowd, he said to them, Hear me, all [of you], and understand:
15 There is nothing without a man coming into him, which is competent to defile him: but those things coming out from him, these are the things which defile the man.
There is nothing from outside a man entering into him which can defile him; but the things which go out from him, those it is which defile the man.
16 If any one has ears to hear, let him hear.
If any one have ears to hear, let him hear.
17 And when He came from the multitude into the house, His disciples asked Him the parable.
And when he went indoors from the crowd, his disciples asked him concerning the parable.
18 And He says to them, Are you still without understanding? Do you not know that everything external entering into a man is not able to defile him?
And he says to them, Are ye also thus unintelligent? Do ye not perceive that all that is outside entering into the man cannot defile him,
19 Because it does not go into his heart, but into his stomach, and is cast out into the excrement, purifying all edibles.
because it does not enter into his heart but into his belly, and goes out into the draught, purging all meats?
20 And He said, Everything proceeding out from the man, that defiles the man.
And he said, That which goes forth out of the man, that defiles the man.
21 For within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil reasonings, adulteries, fornications, murders,
For from within, out of the heart of men, go forth evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders,
22 thefts, covetousness, wickedness, deceit, impurity, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, folly.
thefts, covetousness, wickednesses, deceit, licentiousness, a wicked eye, injurious language, haughtiness, folly;
23 All these evils proceed out from within, and defile the man.
all these wicked things go forth from within and defile the man.
24 And rising up, He departed thence into the regions of Tyre and Sidon. And having entered into a house, and He wished no one to know it: and He was not able to be hidden.
And he rose up and went away thence into the borders of Tyre and Sidon; and having entered into a house he would not have any one know [it], and he could not be hid.
25 For a woman hearing concerning Him, whose daughter had an unclean spirit, having come worshiped at His feet.
But immediately a woman, whose little daughter had an unclean spirit, having heard of him, came and fell at his feet
26 For the woman was a Greek, a Syrophenician by race; and asked Him that He may cast the demon out of her daughter.
(and the woman was a Greek, Syrophenician by race), and asked him that he would cast the demon out of her daughter.
27 And He said to her, Permit the children first to be fed: for It is not good to take the children's bread and cast it to little dogs.
But [Jesus] said to her, Suffer the children to be first filled; for it is not right to take the children's bread and cast it to the dogs.
28 And she responded and says to Him, Yea, Lord: for even the little dogs eat the crumbs of the children under the table.
But she answered and says to him, Yea, Lord; for even the dogs under the table eat of the children's crumbs.
29 And He said to her, On account of this word go; the demon has already gone out from thy daughter.
And he said to her, Because of this word, go thy way, the demon is gone out of thy daughter.
30 And having come into her house, she found the demon gone out, and the daughter lying on the bed.
And having gone away to her house she found the demon gone out, and her daughter lying on the bed.
31 And having again come out from Tyre and Sidon, He came to the Sea of Galilee, amid the coasts of Decapolis.
And again having left the borders of Tyre and Sidon, he came to the sea of Galilee, through the midst of the coasts of Decapolis.
32 And they bring Him a deaf man, speaking with difficulty; and intreat Him that He may lay His hand on him.
And they bring to him a deaf [man] who could not speak right, and they beseech him that he might lay his hand on him.
33 And taking him from the crowd privately, He put His fingers in his ears, and having spat, He touched his tongue;
And having taken him away from the crowd apart, he put his fingers to his ears; and having spit, he touched his tongue;
34 and looking up to heaven, he groaned, and says to him, Ephphatha, which is, Be thou opened.
and looking up to heaven he groaned, and says to him, Ephphatha, that is, Be opened.
35 And immediately his ears were opened, and the bond of his tongue loosed, and he continued to speak distinctly.
And immediately his ears were opened, and the band of his tongue was loosed and he spoke right.
36 And He charged them that they should tell no one: and the more He charged them, the more abundantly they proclaimed it.
And he charged them that they should speak to no one [of it]. But so much the more he charged them, so much the more abundantly they proclaimed it;
37 And were astonished exceedingly, saying, He has done all things well: He makes the deaf to hear, and the dumb to speak.
and they were astonished above measure, saying, He does all things well; he makes both the deaf to hear, and the speechless to speak.
