Mark 7
1 And gathered together to Him are the Pharisees, and certain of the scribes, having come from Jerusalem,
Then the Pharisees [Separated] and some of the Torah-Teachers gathered together to him, having come from Jerusalem [City of peace].
2 and having seen certain of His disciples with defiled hands—that is, unwashed—eating bread, they found fault;
Now when they saw some of his disciples eating bread with defiled, that is unwashed, hands, they found this reprovable.
3 for the Pharisees, and all the Jews, if they do not wash the hands to the wrist, do not eat, holding the tradition of the elders,
(For the Pharisees [Separated] and all the Jews [Praisers], don’t eat unless they wash their hands and forearms, holding to the tradition of the elders.
4 and [coming] from the marketplace, if they do not immerse themselves, they do not eat; and many other things there are that they received to hold, immersions of cups, and pots, and bronze vessels, and couches.
They don’t eat when they come from the marketplace unless they bathe themselves, and there are many other things, which they have received to hold to: washings of cups, pitchers, bronze vessels, and couches.)
5 Then the Pharisees and the scribes question Him, “Why do Your disciples not walk according to the tradition of the elders, but eat the bread with unwashed hands?”
The Pharisees [Separated] and the Torah-Teachers asked him, “Why don’t your disciples walk according to the tradition of the elders, but eat their bread with unwashed hands?”
6 And He answering said to them, “Well did Isaiah prophesy concerning you, hypocrites, as it has been written: This people honors Me with the lips, and their heart is far from Me;
He answered them, “Well did Isaiah [Salvation of Yah] prophesy of you hypocrites, as it is written, ‘This people honors me with their lips, but their heart is far from me.
7 and in vain they worship Me, teaching teachings, commands of men;
But they worship me in vain, teaching as doctrines the commandments of men.’
8 for having put away the command of God, you hold the tradition of men, immersions of pots and cups; and many other such like things you do.”
“For you set aside the commandment of God, and hold tightly to the tradition of men— the washing of pitchers and cups, and you do many other such things.”
9 And He said to them, “Well do you put away the command of God that you may keep your tradition;
He said to them, “Full well do you refuse ·to set aside, neutralize, violate, cast off, nullify, make void· the commandment of God, that you may keep your tradition.
10 for Moses said, Honor your father and your mother; and, He who is speaking evil of father or mother—let him die the death;
For Moses [Drawn out] said, ‘Honor your father and your mother;’ and, ‘He who speaks evil of father or mother, let him be put to death.’
11 and you say, If a man may say to father or to mother, Korban (that is, a gift), [is] whatever you may be profited out of mine,
But you say, ‘If a man tells his father or his mother, “Whatever profit you might have received from me is Corban, that is to say, given to God”’;
12 and you no longer permit him to do anything for his father or for his mother,
then you no longer allow him to do anything for his father or his mother,
13 setting aside the word of God for your tradition that you delivered; and many such like things you do.”
making void ha D'var Elohim ·the Word of God· by your tradition, which you have handed down. You do many things like this.”
14 And having called near all the multitude, He said to them, “Listen to Me, you all, and understand;
He called all the multitude to himself, and said to them, “Hear me, all of you, and understand.
15 there is nothing from outside the man entering into him that is able to defile him, but the things coming out from him, those are the things defiling the man.
There is nothing from outside of the man, that going into him can defile him; but the things which proceed out of the man are those that defile the man.
16 [[If any has ears to hear—let him hear.”]]
If anyone has ears to hear, let him sh'ma ·hear obey·!”
17 And when He entered into a house from the multitude, His disciples were questioning Him about the allegory,
When he had entered into a house away from the multitude, his disciples asked him about the parable.
18 and He says to them, “So also you are without understanding! Do you not perceive that nothing from outside entering into the man is able to defile him?
He said to them, “Are you also without understanding? Don’t you perceive that whatever goes into the man from outside can’t defile him,
19 Because it does not enter into his heart, but into the belly, and into the drain it goes out, purifying all the meats.”
because it does not go into his heart, but into his stomach, then into the latrine, thus purifying all foods?”
20 And He said, “That which is coming out from the man, that defiles the man;
He said, “That which proceeds out of the man, that defiles the man.
21 for from within, out of the heart of men, the evil reasonings come forth, adulteries, whoredoms, murders,
For from within, out of the hearts of men, proceed evil thoughts, moicheiai ·adulteries·, porhneia ·sexual immorality·, murders, thefts,
22 thefts, covetous desires, wickedness, deceit, arrogance, an evil eye, slander, pride, foolishness;
covetings, wickedness, deceit, lustful desires, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, and foolishness.
23 all these evils come forth from within, and they defile the man.”
All these evil things come from within, and defile the man.”
24 And from there having risen, He went away to the borders of Tyre and Sidon, and having entered into the house, He wished none to know, and He was not able to be hid,
From there he arose, and went away into the borders of Tyre and Sidon. He entered into a house, and didn’t want anyone to know it, but he couldn’t escape notice.
25 for a woman having heard about Him, whose little daughter had an unclean spirit, having come, fell at His feet—
For a woman, whose little daughter had an unclean spirit, having heard of him, came and fell down at his feet.
26 and the woman was a Greek, a Syro-Phoenician by nation—and was asking Him that He may cast forth the demon out of her daughter.
Now the woman was a Greek, a Syrophoenician by race. She begged him that he would cast the demon out of her daughter.
27 And Jesus said to her, “First permit the children to be filled, for it is not good to take the children’s bread, and to cast [it] to the little dogs.”
But Yeshua [Salvation] said to her, “Let the children be filled first, for it is not appropriate to take the children’s bread and throw it to the dogs.”
28 And she answered and says to Him, “Yes, Lord; for the little dogs under the table also eat of the children’s crumbs.”
But she answered him, “Yes, Lord. Yet even the dogs under the table eat the children’s crumbs.”
29 And He said to her, “Because of this word, go; the demon has gone forth out of your daughter”;
He said to her, “For this saying, go your way. The demon has gone out of your daughter.”
30 and having come away to her house, she found the demon gone forth, and the daughter laid on the bed.
She went away to her house, and found the child having been laid on the bed, with the demon gone out.
31 And again, having gone forth from the coasts of Tyre and Sidon, He came to the Sea of Galilee, through the midst of the coasts of Decapolis,
Again he departed from the borders of Tyre and Sidon, and came to the sea of Galilee [District, Circuit], through the middle of the region of Decapolis.
32 and they bring to Him a deaf, stuttering man, and they call on Him that He may put the hand on him.
They brought to him one who was deaf and had an impediment in his speech. They begged him to lay his hand on him.
33 And having taken him away from the multitude by Himself, He put His fingers to his ears, and having spit, He touched his tongue,
He took him aside from the multitude, privately, and put his fingers into his ears, and he spat, and touched his tongue.
34 and having looked to the sky, He sighed, and says to him, “Ephphatha,” that is, “Be opened”;
Looking up to heaven, he sighed, and said to him, “Hippatach! ·Be opened·!”
35 and immediately his ears were opened, and the string of his tongue was loosed, and he was speaking plain.
Immediately his ears were opened, and the impediment of his tongue was released, and he spoke clearly.
36 He charged them that they may tell no one, but the more He was charging them, the more abundantly they were proclaiming [it],
He commanded them that they should tell no one, but the more he commanded them, so much the more widely they proclaimed it.
37 and they were being astonished beyond measure, saying, “He has done all things well; He makes both the deaf to hear, and the mute to speak.”
They were astonished beyond measure, saying, “He has done all things well. He makes even the deaf hear, and the mute speak!”
