< Κατα Μαρκον 7 >
1 και συναγονται προσ αυτον οι φαρισαιοι και τινεσ των γραμματεων ελθοντεσ απο ιεροσολυμων
And the Pharisees and some of the scribes, coming from Jerusalem, are gathered together to him,
2 και ιδοντεσ τινασ των μαθητων αυτου κοιναισ χερσιν τουτ εστιν ανιπτοισ εσθιοντασ αρτουσ εμεμψαντο
and seeing some of his disciples eat bread with defiled, that is, unwashed, hands,
3 οι γαρ φαρισαιοι και παντεσ οι ιουδαιοι εαν μη πυγμη νιψωνται τασ χειρασ ουκ εσθιουσιν κρατουντεσ την παραδοσιν των πρεσβυτερων
(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 και απο αγορασ εαν μη βαπτισωνται ουκ εσθιουσιν και αλλα πολλα εστιν α παρελαβον κρατειν βαπτισμουσ ποτηριων και ξεστων και χαλκιων και κλινων
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 επειτα επερωτωσιν αυτον οι φαρισαιοι και οι γραμματεισ δια τι οι μαθηται σου ου περιπατουσιν κατα την παραδοσιν των πρεσβυτερων αλλα ανιπτοισ χερσιν εσθιουσιν τον αρτον
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 ο δε αποκριθεισ ειπεν αυτοισ οτι καλωσ προεφητευσεν ησαιασ περι υμων των υποκριτων ωσ γεγραπται ουτοσ ο λαοσ τοισ χειλεσιν με τιμα η δε καρδια αυτων πορρω απεχει απ εμου
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 ματην δε σεβονται με διδασκοντεσ διδασκαλιασ ενταλματα ανθρωπων
But in vain do they worship me, teaching [as their] teachings commandments of men.
8 αφεντεσ γαρ την εντολην του θεου κρατειτε την παραδοσιν των ανθρωπων βαπτισμουσ ξεστων και ποτηριων και αλλα παρομοια τοιαυτα πολλα ποιειτε
[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 και ελεγεν αυτοισ καλωσ αθετειτε την εντολην του θεου ινα την παραδοσιν υμων τηρησητε
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 μωσησ γαρ ειπεν τιμα τον πατερα σου και την μητερα σου και ο κακολογων πατερα η μητερα θανατω τελευτατω
For Moses said, Honour thy father and thy mother; and, he who speaks ill of father or mother, let him surely die.
11 υμεισ δε λεγετε εαν ειπη ανθρωποσ τω πατρι η τη μητρι κορβαν ο εστιν δωρον ο εαν εξ εμου ωφεληθησ
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 και ουκετι αφιετε αυτον ουδεν ποιησαι τω πατρι αυτου η τη μητρι αυτου
And ye no longer suffer him to do anything for his father or his mother;
13 ακυρουντεσ τον λογον του θεου τη παραδοσει υμων η παρεδωκατε και παρομοια τοιαυτα πολλα ποιειτε
making void the word of God by your traditional teaching which ye have delivered; and many such like things ye do.
14 και προσκαλεσαμενοσ παντα τον οχλον ελεγεν αυτοισ ακουετε μου παντεσ και συνιετε
And having called again the crowd, he said to them, Hear me, all [of you], and understand:
15 ουδεν εστιν εξωθεν του ανθρωπου εισπορευομενον εισ αυτον ο δυναται αυτον κοινωσαι αλλα τα εκπορευομενα απ αυτου εκεινα εστιν τα κοινουντα τον ανθρωπον
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 ει τισ εχει ωτα ακουειν ακουετω
If any one have ears to hear, let him hear.
17 και οτε εισηλθεν εισ οικον απο του οχλου επηρωτων αυτον οι μαθηται αυτου περι τησ παραβολησ
And when he went indoors from the crowd, his disciples asked him concerning the parable.
18 και λεγει αυτοισ ουτωσ και υμεισ ασυνετοι εστε ου νοειτε οτι παν το εξωθεν εισπορευομενον εισ τον ανθρωπον ου δυναται αυτον κοινωσαι
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 οτι ουκ εισπορευεται αυτου εισ την καρδιαν αλλ εισ την κοιλιαν και εισ τον αφεδρωνα εκπορευεται καθαριζον παντα τα βρωματα
because it does not enter into his heart but into his belly, and goes out into the draught, purging all meats?
20 ελεγεν δε οτι το εκ του ανθρωπου εκπορευομενον εκεινο κοινοι τον ανθρωπον
And he said, That which goes forth out of the man, that defiles the man.
21 εσωθεν γαρ εκ τησ καρδιασ των ανθρωπων οι διαλογισμοι οι κακοι εκπορευονται μοιχειαι πορνειαι φονοι
For from within, out of the heart of men, go forth evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders,
22 κλοπαι πλεονεξιαι πονηριαι δολοσ ασελγεια οφθαλμοσ πονηροσ βλασφημια υπερηφανια αφροσυνη
thefts, covetousness, wickednesses, deceit, licentiousness, a wicked eye, injurious language, haughtiness, folly;
23 παντα ταυτα τα πονηρα εσωθεν εκπορευεται και κοινοι τον ανθρωπον
all these wicked things go forth from within and defile the man.
24 και εκειθεν αναστασ απηλθεν εισ τα μεθορια τυρου και σιδωνοσ και εισελθων εισ οικιαν ουδενα ηθελεν γνωναι και ουκ ηδυνηθη λαθειν
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 ακουσασα γαρ γυνη περι αυτου ησ ειχεν το θυγατριον αυτησ πνευμα ακαθαρτον ελθουσα προσεπεσεν προσ τουσ ποδασ αυτου
But immediately a woman, whose little daughter had an unclean spirit, having heard of him, came and fell at his feet
26 ην δε η γυνη ελληνισ συραφοινικισσα τω γενει και ηρωτα αυτον ινα το δαιμονιον εκβαλη εκ τησ θυγατροσ αυτησ
(and the woman was a Greek, Syrophenician by race), and asked him that he would cast the demon out of her daughter.
27 ο δε ιησουσ ειπεν αυτη αφεσ πρωτον χορτασθηναι τα τεκνα ου γαρ καλον εστιν λαβειν τον αρτον των τεκνων και βαλειν τοισ κυναριοισ
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 η δε απεκριθη και λεγει αυτω ναι κυριε και γαρ τα κυναρια υποκατω τησ τραπεζησ εσθιει απο των ψιχιων των παιδιων
But she answered and says to him, Yea, Lord; for even the dogs under the table eat of the children's crumbs.
29 και ειπεν αυτη δια τουτον τον λογον υπαγε εξεληλυθεν το δαιμονιον εκ τησ θυγατροσ σου
And he said to her, Because of this word, go thy way, the demon is gone out of thy daughter.
30 και απελθουσα εισ τον οικον αυτησ ευρεν το δαιμονιον εξεληλυθοσ και την θυγατερα βεβλημενην επι τησ κλινησ
And having gone away to her house she found the demon gone out, and her daughter lying on the bed.
31 και παλιν εξελθων εκ των οριων τυρου και σιδωνοσ ηλθεν προσ την θαλασσαν τησ γαλιλαιασ ανα μεσον των οριων δεκαπολεωσ
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 και φερουσιν αυτω κωφον μογγιλαλον και παρακαλουσιν αυτον ινα επιθη αυτω την χειρα
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 και απολαβομενοσ αυτον απο του οχλου κατ ιδιαν εβαλεν τουσ δακτυλουσ αυτου εισ τα ωτα αυτου και πτυσασ ηψατο τησ γλωσσησ αυτου
And having taken him away from the crowd apart, he put his fingers to his ears; and having spit, he touched his tongue;
34 και αναβλεψασ εισ τον ουρανον εστεναξεν και λεγει αυτω εφφαθα ο εστιν διανοιχθητι
and looking up to heaven he groaned, and says to him, Ephphatha, that is, Be opened.
35 και ευθεωσ διηνοιχθησαν αυτου αι ακοαι και ελυθη ο δεσμοσ τησ γλωσσησ αυτου και ελαλει ορθωσ
And immediately his ears were opened, and the band of his tongue was loosed and he spoke right.
36 και διεστειλατο αυτοισ ινα μηδενι ειπωσιν οσον δε αυτοσ αυτοισ διεστελλετο μαλλον περισσοτερον εκηρυσσον
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 και υπερπερισσωσ εξεπλησσοντο λεγοντεσ καλωσ παντα πεποιηκεν και τουσ κωφουσ ποιει ακουειν και τουσ αλαλουσ λαλειν
and they were astonished above measure, saying, He does all things well; he makes both the deaf to hear, and the speechless to speak.
