Matthew 15
1 Then there came to Jesus a party of Pharisees and Scribes from Jerusalem, who inquired,
aparaM yirUshAlamnagarIyAH katipayA adhyApakAH phirUshinashcha yIshoH samIpamAgatya kathayAmAsuH,
2 "Why do your disciples transgress the tradition of the Elders by not washing their hands before meals?"
tava shiShyAH kimartham aprakShAlitakarai rbhakShitvA paramparAgataM prAchInAnAM vyavahAraM la Nvante?
3 "Why do you, too," He retorted, "transgress God's commands for the sake of your tradition?
tato yIshuH pratyuvAcha, yUyaM paramparAgatAchAreNa kuta IshvarAj nAM la Nvadhve|
4 For God said, 'Honour thy father and thy mother'; and 'Let him who reviles father or mother be certainly put to death';
Ishvara ityAj nApayat, tvaM nijapitarau saMmanyethAH, yena cha nijapitarau nindyete, sa nishchitaM mriyeta;
5 but you--this is what you say: 'If a man says to his father or mother, That is consecrated, whatever it is, which otherwise you should have received from me--
kintu yUyaM vadatha, yaH svajanakaM svajananIM vA vAkyamidaM vadati, yuvAM matto yallabhethe, tat nyavidyata,
6 he shall be absolved from honouring his father'; and so you have abrogated God's Word for the sake of your tradition.
sa nijapitarau puna rna saMmaMsyate| itthaM yUyaM paramparAgatena sveShAmAchAreNeshvarIyAj nAM lumpatha|
7 Hypocrites! well did Isaiah prophesy of you,
re kapaTinaH sarvve yishayiyo yuShmAnadhi bhaviShyadvachanAnyetAni samyag uktavAn|
8 "'This is a People who honour Me with their lips, while their heart is far away from Me;
vadanai rmanujA ete samAyAnti madantikaM| tathAdharai rmadIya ncha mAnaM kurvvanti te narAH|
9 but it is in vain they worship Me, while they lay down precepts which are mere human rules.'"
kintu teShAM mano matto vidUraeva tiShThati| shikShayanto vidhIn nrAj nA bhajante mAM mudhaiva te|
10 Then, when He had called the people to Him, Jesus said, "Hear and understand.
tato yIshu rlokAn AhUya proktavAn, yUyaM shrutvA budhyadhbaM|
11 It is not what goes into a man's mouth that defiles him; but it is what comes out of his mouth--that defiles a man."
yanmukhaM pravishati, tat manujam amedhyaM na karoti, kintu yadAsyAt nirgachChati, tadeva mAnuShamamedhyI karotI|
12 Then His disciples came and said to Him, "Do you know that the Pharisees were greatly shocked when they heard those words?"
tadAnIM shiShyA Agatya tasmai kathayA nchakruH, etAM kathAM shrutvA phirUshino vyarajyanta, tat kiM bhavatA j nAyate?
13 "Every plant," He replied, "which my Heavenly Father has not planted will be rooted up.
sa pratyavadat, mama svargasthaH pitA yaM ka nchida NkuraM nAropayat, sa utpAvdyate|
14 Leave them alone. They are blind guides of the blind; and if a blind man leads a blind man, both will fall into some pit."
te tiShThantu, te andhamanujAnAm andhamArgadarshakA eva; yadyandho. andhaM panthAnaM darshayati, tarhyubhau gartte patataH|
15 "Explain to us this figurative language," said Peter.
tadA pitarastaM pratyavadat, dR^iShTAntamimamasmAn bodhayatu|
16 "Are even you," He answered, "still without intellingence?
yIshunA proktaM, yUyamadya yAvat kimabodhAH stha?
17 Do you not understand that whatever enters the mouth passes into the stomach and is afterwards ejected from the body?
kathAmimAM kiM na budhyadhbe? yadAsyaM previshati, tad udare patan bahirniryAti,
18 But the things that come out of the mouth proceed from the heart, and it is these that defile the man.
kintvAsyAd yanniryAti, tad antaHkaraNAt niryAtatvAt manujamamedhyaM karoti|
19 For out of the heart proceed wicked thoughts, murder, adultery, fornication, theft, perjury, impiety of speech.
yato. antaHkaraNAt kuchintA badhaH pAradArikatA veshyAgamanaM chairyyaM mithyAsAkShyam IshvaranindA chaitAni sarvvANi niryyAnti|
20 These are the things which defile the man; but eating with unwashed hands does not defile."
etAni manuShyamapavitrI kurvvanti kintvaprakShAlitakareNa bhojanaM manujamamedhyaM na karoti|
21 Leaving that place, Jesus withdrew into the vicinity of Tyre and Sidon.

22 Here a Canaanitish woman of the district came out and persistently cried out, "Sir, Son of David, pity me; my daughter is cruelly harassed by a demon."
tadA tatsImAtaH kAchit kinAnIyA yoShid Agatya tamuchchairuvAcha, he prabho dAyUdaH santAna, mamaikA duhitAste sA bhUtagrastA satI mahAkleshaM prApnoti mama dayasva|
23 But He answered her not a word. Then the disciples interposed, and begged Him, saying, "Send her away because she keeps crying behind us."
kintu yIshustAM kimapi noktavAn, tataH shiShyA Agatya taM nivedayAmAsuH, eShA yoShid asmAkaM pashchAd uchchairAhUyAgachChati, enAM visR^ijatu|
24 "I have only been sent to the lost sheep of the house of Israel," He replied.
tadA sa pratyavadat, isrAyelgotrasya hAritameShAn vinA kasyApyanyasya samIpaM nAhaM preShitosmi|
25 Then she came and threw herself at His feet and entreated Him. "O Sir, help me," she said.
tataH sA nArIsamAgatya taM praNamya jagAda, he prabho mAmupakuru|
26 "It is not right," He said, "to take the children's bread and throw it to the dogs."
sa uktavAn, bAlakAnAM bhakShyamAdAya sArameyebhyo dAnaM nochitaM|
27 "Be it so, Sir," she said, "for even the dogs eat the scraps which fall from their masters' tables."
tadA sA babhAShe, he prabho, tat satyaM, tathApi prabho rbha nchAd yaduchChiShTaM patati, tat sArameyAH khAdanti|
28 "O woman," replied Jesus, "great is your faith: be it done to you as you desire." And from that moment her daughter was restored to health.
tato yIshuH pratyavadat, he yoShit, tava vishvAso mahAn tasmAt tava manobhilaShitaM sidyyatu, tena tasyAH kanyA tasminneva daNDe nirAmayAbhavat|
29 Again, moving thence, Jesus went along by the Lake of Galilee; and ascending the hill, He sat down there.

30 Soon great crowds came to Him, bringing with them those who were crippled in feet or hands, blind or dumb, and many besides, and they hastened to lay them at His feet. And He cured them,
pashchAt jananivaho bahUn kha nchAndhamUkashuShkakaramAnuShAn AdAya yIshoH samIpamAgatya tachcharaNAntike sthApayAmAsuH, tataH sA tAn nirAmayAn akarot|
31 so that the people were amazed to see the dumb speaking, the maimed with their hands perfect, the lame walking, and the blind seeing; and they gave the glory to the God of Israel.
itthaM mUkA vAkyaM vadanti, shuShkakarAH svAsthyamAyAnti, pa Ngavo gachChanti, andhA vIkShante, iti vilokya lokA vismayaM manyamAnA isrAyela IshvaraM dhanyaM babhAShire|
32 But Jesus called His disciples to Him and said, "My heart yearns over this mass of people, for it is now the third day that they have been with me and they have nothing to eat. I am unwilling to send them away hungry, lest they should faint on the road."
tadAnIM yIshuH svashiShyAn AhUya gaditavAn, etajjananivaheShu mama dayA jAyate, ete dinatrayaM mayA sAkaM santi, eShAM bhakShyavastu cha ka nchidapi nAsti, tasmAdahametAnakR^itAhArAn na visrakShyAmi, tathAtve vartmamadhye klAmyeShuH|
33 "Where can we," asked the disciples, "get bread enough in this remote place to satisfy so vast a multitude?"
tadA shiShyA UchuH, etasmin prAntaramadhya etAvato martyAn tarpayituM vayaM kutra pUpAn prApsyAmaH?
34 "How many loaves have you?" Jesus asked. "Seven," they said, "and a few small fish."
yIshurapR^ichChat, yuShmAkaM nikaTe kati pUpA Asate? ta UchuH, saptapUpA alpAH kShudramInAshcha santi|
35 So He bade all the people sit down on the ground,
tadAnIM sa lokanivahaM bhUmAvupaveShTum Adishya
36 and He took the seven loaves and the fish, and after giving thanks He broke them up and then distributed them to the disciples, and they to the people.
tAn saptapUpAn mInAMshcha gR^ihlan IshvarIyaguNAn anUdya bhaMktvA shiShyebhyo dadau, shiShyA lokebhyo daduH|
37 And they all ate and were satisfied. The broken portions that remained over they took up--seven full hampers.
tataH sarvve bhuktvA tR^iptavantaH; tadavashiShTabhakShyeNa saptaDalakAn paripUryya saMjagR^ihuH|
38 Those who ate were 4,000 adult men, without reckoning women and children.

39 He then dismissed the people, went on board the boat, and came into the district of Magadan.
