| |
| | Mat 15:1 | Then there come to Jesus from Jerusalem Pharisees and scribes, saying,
| |
| | Mat 15:2 | Why do thy disciples transgress the tradition of the elders? for they wash not their hands when they eat bread.
| |
| | Mat 15:3 | And he answered and said unto them, Why do ye also transgress the commandment of God because of your tradition?
| |
| | Mat 15:4 | For God said, Honor thy father and thy mother: and, He that speaketh evil of father or mother, let him die the death.
| |
| | Mat 15:5 | But ye say, whosoever shall say to his father or his mother, That wherewith thou mightest have been profited by me is given `to God';
| |
| | Mat 15:6 | he shall not honor his father. And ye have made void the word of God because of your tradition.
| |
| | Mat 15:7 | Ye hypocrites, well did Isaiah prophesy of you, saying,
| |
| | Mat 15:8 | This people honoreth me with their lips; But their heart is far from me.
| |
| | Mat 15:9 | But in vain do they worship me, Teaching `as their' doctrines the precepts of men.
| |
| | Mat 15:10 | And he called to him the multitude, and said unto them, Hear, and understand:
| |
| | Mat 15:11 | Not that which entereth into the mouth defileth the man; but that which proceedeth out of the mouth, this defileth the man.
| |
| | Mat 15:12 | Then came the disciples, and said unto him, Knowest thou that the Pharisees were offended, when they heard this saying?
| |
| | Mat 15:13 | But he answered and said, Every plant which my heavenly Father planted not, shall be rooted up.
| |
| | Mat 15:14 | Let them alone: they are blind guides. And if the blind guide the blind, both shall fall into a pit.
| |
| | Mat 15:15 | And Peter answered and said unto him, Declare unto us the parable.
| |
| | Mat 15:16 | And he said, Are ye also even yet without understanding?
| |
| | Mat 15:17 | Perceive ye not, that whatsoever goeth into the mouth passeth into the belly, and is cast out into the draught?
| |
| | Mat 15:18 | But the things which proceed out of the mouth come forth out of the heart; and they defile the man.
| |
| | Mat 15:19 | For out of the heart come forth evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness, railings:
| |
| | Mat 15:20 | these are the things which defile the man; but to eat with unwashen hands defileth not the man.
| |
| | Mat 15:21 | And Jesus went out thence, and withdrew into the parts of Tyre and Sidon.
| |
| | Mat 15:22 | And behold, a Canaanitish woman came out from those borders, and cried, saying, Have mercy on me, O Lord, thou son of David; my daughter is grievously vexed with a demon.
| |
| | Mat 15:23 | But he answered her not a word. And his disciples came and besought him, saying, Send her away; for she crieth after us.
| |
| | Mat 15:24 | But he answered and said, I was not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
| |
| | Mat 15:25 | But she came and worshipped him, saying, Lord, help me.
| |
| | Mat 15:26 | And he answered and said, It is not meet to take the children's bread and cast it to the dogs.
| |
| | Mat 15:27 | But she said, Yea, Lord: for even the dogs eat of the crumbs which fall from their masters' table.
| |
| | Mat 15:28 | Then Jesus answered and said unto her, O woman, great is thy faith: be it done unto thee even as thou wilt. And her daughter was healed from that hour.
| |
| | Mat 15:29 | And Jesus departed thence, and came nigh unto the sea of Galilee; and he went up into the mountain, and sat there.
| |
| | Mat 15:30 | And there came unto him great multitudes, having with them the lame, blind, dumb, maimed, and many others, and they cast them down at this feet; and he healed them:
| |
| | Mat 15:31 | insomuch that the multitude wondered, when they saw the dumb speaking, the maimed whole, and lame walking, and the blind seeing: and they glorified the God of Israel.
| |
| | Mat 15:32 | And Jesus called unto him his disciples, and said, I have compassion on the multitude, because they continue with me now three days and have nothing to eat: and I would not send them away fasting, lest haply they faint on the way.
| |
| | Mat 15:33 | And the disciples say unto him, Whence should we have so many loaves in a desert place as to fill so great a multitude?
| |
| | Mat 15:34 | And Jesus said unto them, How many loaves have ye? And they said, Seven, and a few small fishes.
| |
| | Mat 15:35 | And he commanded the multitude to sit down on the ground;
| |
| | Mat 15:36 | and he took the seven loaves and the fishes; and he gave thanks and brake, and gave to the disciples, and the disciples to the multitudes.
| |
| | Mat 15:37 | And they all ate, and were filled: and they took up that which remained over of the broken pieces, seven baskets full.
| |
| | Mat 15:38 | And they that did eat were four thousand men, besides women and children.
| |
| | Mat 15:39 | And he sent away the multitudes, and entered into the boat, and came into the borders of Magadan.
