ABP - Mark - 7

7:1  And gathered together to him the Pharisees and some from the scribes, having come from Jerusalem.

7:2  And they beholding certain ones of his disciples with common hands, that is to say unwashed, eating bread, they complained;

7:3  for the Pharisees and all the Jews, unless [3with a fist 1they washed 2hands] they do not eat, holding the tradition of the elders.

7:4  And coming from markets, if they should not immerse, they do not eat; and [2other things 1many] there are which they take on themselves to hold -- immersion of cups, and quart pitchers, and brass kettles, and beds.

7:5  Thereupon [6asked 7him 1the 2Pharisees 3and 4the 5scribes], Why do your disciples not walk according to the tradition of the elders, but with unwashed hands they eat the bread?

7:6  And he answering said to them that, Well Isaiah prophesied concerning you the hypocrites, as it has been written, This people [2with the 3lip 1esteem me], but their heart is far off at a distance from me.

7:7  And in vain they worship me, teaching as instructions the precepts of men.

7:8  For leaving the commandment of God, you hold the tradition of men -- immersions of quart pitchers and cups, and [2other 3similar 4such things 1many] you do.

7:9  And he said to them, Well you annul the commandment of God, that [2your tradition 1you give heed to].

7:10  For Moses said, Esteem your father and your mother! And, Let the one speaking evil of father or mother [2in death 1come to an end]!

7:11  But you say, If [2should say 1a man] to a father or to a mother, Corban, (which is a gift offering) what ever of me you should derive benefit.

7:12  And no longer you allow him [2anything 1to do] to his father or to his mother,

7:13  voiding the word of God by your tradition which you delivered; and [2similar 3such things 1many] you do.

7:14  And having called all the multitude, he said to them, Hear me all, and perceive!

7:15  There is nothing from outside of man entering into him which is able to make him unclean; but the things going forth from him, those are the things making [3unclean 1the 2man].

7:16  If any has ears to hear let him hear!

7:17  And when he entered into a house from the multitude, [2asked 3him 1his disciples] concerning the parable.

7:18  And he says to them, Thus also you are senseless? Do you not comprehend that everything from outside entering into a man is not able to make him unclean.

7:19  For it enters not into his heart, but into the belly; and into the bowel it goes forth, cleansing all the foods.

7:20  And he said that, The thing [2from out of 3the 4man 1going forth], that defiles the man.

7:21  For from inside out of the heart of men [3thoughts 2evil 1goes forth], adulteries, harlotries, murders,

7:22  frauds, desires for wealth, wickednesses, treachery, lewdness, [2eye 1a wicked], blasphemy, pride, folly.

7:23  All these evils from inside go forth and defile the man.

7:24  And from there having risen up, he went forth into the boundaries of Tyre and Sidon. And he entered into the house, [2no one 1wanting] to know, but he was not able to be unaware.

7:25  [3having heard 1For 2a woman] about him, of which [3had 2young daughter 1her 5spirit 4an unclean], having come fell at his feet.

7:26  [4was 1And 2the 3woman] a Greek, Syro-phoenician by race, and she asked him that [2the 3demon 1he should cast out] from her daughter.

7:27  And Jesus said to her, Allow [3first 4to be filled 1the 2children]! [3not 1for 4good 2it is] to take the bread of the children, and to throw it to the little dogs.

7:28  And she answered and says to him, Yes, O Lord, but even the little dogs underneath the table eat from the crumbs of the children.

7:29  And he said to her, On account of this word, go! [3has come forth 1the 2demon] from out of your daughter.

7:30  And having gone forth unto her house, she found the demon having gone forth, and the daughter being laid upon the bed.

7:31  And again having come forth from the borders of Tyre and Sidon, he came to the sea of the Galilee, in the midst of the borders of Decapolis.

7:32  And they bring to him a deaf-mute stammering. And they appeal to him that he should place upon him his hand.

7:33  And taking him away from the multitude in private, he put his fingers into his ears, and having spit touched his tongue.

7:34  And having looked up into the heaven, he moaned, and says to him, Ephphatha, which is, Be opened wide!

7:35  And immediately were opened wide his hearing faculties, and [4was untied 1the 2bond 3of his tongue], and he spoke rightly.

7:36  And he warned them that [2to no one 1they should speak]. But as much as he warned them, rather more extra they proclaimed.

7:37  And more exceedingly they were overwhelmed, saying, [2all things well 1He has done]. Both the deaf he makes to hear, and the speechless to speak.
