< Matthew 15 >
1 then to come near/agree the/this/who Jesus (the/this/who *k*) away from Jerusalem Pharisee and scribe to say
Then some Pharisees and teachers of the Law came to Jesus, and said,
2 through/because of which? the/this/who disciple you to transgress the/this/who tradition the/this/who elder: Elder no for to wash the/this/who hand it/s/he when(-ever) bread to eat
‘How is it that your disciples break the traditions of our ancestors? For they do not wash their hands when they eat food.’
3 the/this/who then to answer to say it/s/he through/because of which? and you to transgress the/this/who commandment the/this/who God through/because of the/this/who tradition you
His reply was, ‘How is it that you on your side break God’s commandments out of respect for your own traditions?
4 the/this/who for God (to say *N(k)O*) (to say *k*) to honor the/this/who father (you *k*) and the/this/who mother and the/this/who to curse/revile father or mother death to decease
For God said – “Honour your father and mother,” and “Anyone who abuses his father or mother shall suffer death,”
5 you then to say which if to say the/this/who father or the/this/who mother gift which if out from I/we to help
but you say “Whenever anyone says to his father or mother ‘Whatever of mine might have been of service to you is set apart for God,’
6 (and *k*) no not (to honor *N(k)O*) the/this/who father it/s/he (or the/this/who mother it/s/he *KO*) and to nullify (the/this/who *N(k)O*) (word *N(K)O*) the/this/who God through/because of the/this/who tradition you
he is in no way bound to honour his father.” In this way you have nullified the words of God for the sake of your traditions.
7 hypocrite well to prophesy about you Isaiah to say
Hypocrites! It was well said by Isaiah when he prophesied about you –
8 (to come near me *K*) the/this/who a people this/he/she/it (the/this/who mouth it/s/he and *K*) the/this/who lip me to honor the/this/who then heart it/s/he far (away) to have in full away from I/we
“This is a people that honour me with their lips, While their hearts are far removed from me;
9 in vain then be devout me to teach teaching precept a human
but vainly do they worship me, For they teach but human precepts.”’
10 and to call to/summon the/this/who crowd to say it/s/he to hear and to understand
Then Jesus called the people to him, and said, ‘Listen, and mark my words.
11 no the/this/who to enter toward the/this/who mouth to profane the/this/who a human but the/this/who to depart out from the/this/who mouth this/he/she/it to profane the/this/who a human
It is not what enters a person’s mouth that defiles them, but what comes out from their mouth – that does defile them!’
12 then to come near/agree the/this/who disciple (it/s/he *ko*) (to say *N(k)O*) it/s/he to know that/since: that the/this/who Pharisee to hear the/this/who word to cause to stumble
His disciples came up to him, and said, ‘Do you know that the Pharisees were shocked on hearing what you said?’

‘Every plant,’ Jesus replied, ‘that my heavenly Father has not planted will be rooted up.
14 to release: leave it/s/he blind to be guide/leader blind blind then blind if to guide both toward pit to collapse
Leave them be; they are but blind guides; and, if one blind person guides another, both of them will fall into a ditch.’
15 to answer then the/this/who Peter to say it/s/he to explain me the/this/who parable this/he/she/it
Peter spoke up, ‘Explain this saying to us.’
16 the/this/who then (Jesus *k*) to say still and you senseless to be
‘What, do even you understand nothing yet?’ Jesus exclaimed.
17 (no *N(K)O*) to understand that/since: that all the/this/who to enter toward the/this/who mouth toward the/this/who belly/womb/stomach to make room for and toward latrine to expel
‘Don’t you see that whatever goes into the mouth passes into the stomach, and is afterwards expelled?
18 the/this/who then to depart out from the/this/who mouth out from the/this/who heart to go out and that to profane the/this/who a human
But the things that come out of the mouth proceed from the heart, and it is these that defile a person;
19 out from for the/this/who heart to go out reasoning evil/bad murder adultery sexual sin theft false testimony blasphemy
for out of the heart proceed evil thoughts – murder, adultery, sexual immorality, theft, perjury, slander.
20 this/he/she/it to be the/this/who to profane the/this/who a human the/this/who then unwashed hand to eat no to profane the/this/who a human
These are the things that defile a person; but eating with unwashed hands does not defile a person.’
21 and to go out from there the/this/who Jesus to leave toward the/this/who part Tyre and Sidon
On going away from that place, Jesus went to the country round Tyre and Sidon.
22 and look! woman Canaanite away from the/this/who region that to go out (to cry *N(k)O*) (it/s/he *k*) to say to have mercy me lord: God (son *N(k)O*) David the/this/who daughter me badly be demonised
There, a Canaanite woman of that district came out and began calling to Jesus, ‘Take pity on me, Master, Son of David; my daughter is grievously possessed by a demon.’

But Jesus did not answer her a word; and his disciples came up and begged him to send her away. ‘She keeps calling out after us,’ they said.
24 the/this/who then to answer to say no to send if: not not toward the/this/who sheep the/this/who to destroy house: household Israel
‘I was not sent,’ replied Jesus, ‘to anyone except the lost sheep of Israel.’
25 the/this/who then to come/go (to worship *NK(o)*) it/s/he to say lord: God to help me
But the woman came, and, bowing to the ground before him, said, ‘Master, help me.’

Great crowds of people came to him, bringing with them those who were lame, crippled, blind, or dumb, and many others. They put them down at his feet, and he cured them;
31 so (the/this/who crowd *N(k)O*) to marvel to see deaf/mute to speak crippled healthy (and *no*) lame to walk and blind to see and to glorify the/this/who God Israel
and the crowds were astonished, when they saw the dumb talking, the cripples made sound, the lame walking about, and the blind with their sight restored; and they praised the God of Israel.

Afterwards Jesus called his disciples to him, and said, ‘My heart is moved at the sight of all these people, for they have already been with me three days and they have nothing to eat; and I am unwilling to send them away hungry; they might faint on the way home.’
33 and to say it/s/he the/this/who disciple (it/s/he *ko*) whence me in/on/among desert bread so great so to feed crowd so great
