Book 41 : MARK - Chapter 007
007:001
And when they saw some of his disciples eat bread with
defiled, that is to say, with unwashen, hands, they found
fault
007:002
For the Pharisees, and all the Jews, except they wash their
hands oft, eat not, holding the tradition of the elders
007:003
And when they come from the market, except they wash, they eat
not. And many other things there be, which they have received
to hold, as the washing of cups, and pots, brasen vessels, and
of tables
007:004
Then the Pharisees and scribes asked him, Why walk not thy
disciples according to the tradition of the elders, but eat
bread with unwashen hands
007:005
He answered and said unto them, Well hath Esaias prophesied of
you hypocrites, as it is written, This people honoureth me
with their lips, but their heart is far from me
007:006
Howbeit in vain do they worship me, teaching for doctrines the
commandments of men
007:007
For laying aside the commandment of God, ye hold the tradition
of men, as the washing of pots and cups: and many other such
like things ye do
007:008
And he said unto them, Full well ye reject the commandment of
God, that ye may keep your own tradition
007:009
For Moses said, Honour thy father and thy mother; and, Whoso
curseth father or mother, let him die the death
007:010
But ye say, If a man shall say to his father or mother, It is
Corban, that is to say, a gift, by whatsoever thou mightest be
profited by me; he shall be free
007:011
And ye suffer him no more to do ought for his father or his
mother
007:012
Making the word of God of none effect through your tradition,
which ye have delivered: and many such like things do ye
007:013
And when he had called all the people unto him, he said unto
them, Hearken unto me every one of you, and understand
007:014
There is nothing from without a man, that entering into him
can defile him: but the things which come out of him, those
are they that defile the man
007:015
If any man have ears to hear, let him hear
007:016
And when he was entered into the house from the people, his
disciples asked him concerning the parable
007:017
And he saith unto them, Are ye so without understanding also?
Do ye not perceive, that whatsoever thing from without
entereth into the man, it cannot defile him
007:018
Because it entereth not into his heart, but into the belly,
and goeth out into the draught, purging all meats
007:019
And he said, That which cometh out of the man, that defileth
the man
007:020
For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil
thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders
007:021
Thefts, covetousness, wickedness, deceit, lasciviousness, an
evil eye, blasphemy, pride, foolishness
007:022
All these evil things come from within, and defile the man
007:023
And from thence he arose, and went into the borders of Tyre
and Sidon, and entered into an house, and would have no man
know it: but he could not be hid
007:024
For a certain woman, whose young daughter had an unclean
spirit, heard of him, and came and fell at his feet
007:025
The woman was a Greek, a Syrophenician by nation; and she
besought him that he would cast forth the devil out of her
daughter
007:026
But Jesus said unto her, Let the children first be filled: for
it is not meet to take the children's bread, and to cast it
unto the dogs
007:027
And she answered and said unto him, Yes, Lord: yet the dogs
under the table eat of the children's crumbs
007:028
And he said unto her, For this saying go thy way; the devil is
gone out of thy daughter
007:029
And when she was come to her house, she found the devil gone
out, and her daughter laid upon the bed
007:030
And again, departing from the coasts of Tyre and Sidon, he
came unto the sea of Galilee, through the midst of the coasts
of Decapolis
007:031
And they bring unto him one that was deaf, and had an
impediment in his speech; and they beseech him to put his hand
upon him
007:032
And he took him aside from the multitude, and put his fingers
into his ears, and he spit, and touched his tongue
007:033
And looking up to heaven, he sighed, and saith unto him,
Ephphatha, that is, Be opened
007:034
And straightway his ears were opened, and the string of his
tongue was loosed, and he spake plain
007:035
And he charged them that they should tell no man: but the more
he charged them, so much the more a great deal they published
it
007:036
And were beyond measure astonished, saying, He hath done all
things well: he maketh both the deaf to hear, and the dumb to
speak
