Mark:7:1-23

*
Then came together (
5743 )
unto him the Pharisees ,
and certain of the scribes ,
which came (
5631 )
from Jerusalem .
*
And when they saw (
5631 )
some of his disciples eat (
5723 )
bread with defiled ,
that is to say (
5748 ),
with unwashen ,
hands ,
they found fault (
5662 ).
*
For the Pharisees ,
and all the Jews ,
except they wash (
5672 )
their hands oft ,
eat (
5719 )
not ,
holding (
5723 )
the tradition of the elders .
*
And when they come from the market ,
except they wash (
5672 ),
they eat (
5719 )
not .
And many other things there be (
5748 ),
which they have received (
5627 )
to hold (
5721 ),
as the washing of cups ,
and pots ,
brasen vessels ,
and of tables .
*
Then the Pharisees and scribes asked (
5719 )
him ,
Why walk (
5719 )
not thy disciples according to the tradition of the elders ,
but eat (
5719 )
bread with unwashen hands ?
*
He answered (
5679 )
and said (
5627 )
unto them ,
Well hath Esaias prophesied (
5656 )
of you hypocrites ,
as it is written (
5769 ),
This people honoureth (
5719 )
me with their lips ,
but their heart is (
5719 )
far from me .
*
Howbeit in vain do they worship (
5736 )
me ,
teaching (
5723 )
for doctrines the commandments of men .
*
For laying aside (
5631 )
the commandment of God ,
ye hold (
5719 )
the tradition of men ,
as the washing of pots and cups :
and many other such like things ye do (
5719 ).
*
And he said (
5707 )
unto them ,
Full well ye reject (
5719 )
the commandment of God ,
that ye may keep (
5661 )
your own tradition .
*
For Moses said (
5627 ),
Honour (
5720 )
thy father and thy mother ;
and ,
Whoso curseth (
5723 )
father or mother ,
let him die (
5720 )
the death :
*
But ye say (
5719 ),
If a man shall say (
5632 )
to his father or mother ,
It is Corban ,
that is to say ,
a gift ,
by whatsoever thou mightest be profited by (
5686 )
me ;
he shall be free .
*
And ye suffer (
5719 )
him no more to do (
5658 )
ought for his father or his mother ;
*
Making the word of God of none effect (
5723 )
through your tradition ,
which ye have delivered (
5656 ):
and many such like things do ye (
5719 ).
*
And when he had called (
5666 )
all the people unto him ,
he said (
5707 )
unto them ,
Hearken (
5720 )
unto me every one of you ,
and understand (
5720 ):
*
There is (
5748 )
nothing from without a man ,
that entering (
5740 )
into him can (
5736 )
defile (
5658 )
him :
but the things which come (
5740 )
out of him ,
those are they (
5748 )
that defile (
5723 )
the man .
*
If any man have (
5719 )
ears to hear (
5721 ),
let him hear (
5720 ).
*
And when he was entered (
5627 )
into the house from the people ,
his disciples asked (
5707 )
him concerning the parable .
*
And he saith (
5719 )
unto them ,
Are (
5748 )
ye so without understanding also ?
Do ye not perceive (
5719 ),
that whatsoever thing from without entereth (
5740 )
into the man ,
it cannot (
5736 )
defile (
5658 )
him ;
*
Because it entereth (
5736 )
not into his heart ,
but into the belly ,
and goeth out (
5736 )
into the draught ,
purging (
5723 )
all meats ?
*
And he said (
5707 ),
That which cometh (
5740 )
out of the man ,
that defileth (
5719 )
the man .
*
For from within ,
out of the heart of men ,
proceed (
5736 )
evil thoughts ,
adulteries ,
fornications ,
murders ,
*
Thefts ,
covetousness ,
wickedness ,
deceit ,
lasciviousness ,
an evil eye ,
blasphemy ,
pride ,
foolishness :
*
All these evil things come (
5736 )
from within ,
and defile (
5719 )
the man .
