  Mark   chapter 7

   1 Then came together unto him the Pharisees, and
  certain of the scribes, which came from Jerusalem.
   2 And when they saw some of his disciples eat bread
  with defiled, that is to say, with unwashen, hands,
  they found fault.
   3 For the Pharisees, and all the Jews, except they
  wash their hands oft, eat not, holding the tradition
  of the elders.
   4 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.
   5 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?
   6 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.
   7 Howbeit in vain do they worship me, teaching for
  doctrines the commandments of men.
   8 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.
   9 And he said unto them, Full well ye reject the
  commandment of God, that ye may keep your own
  tradition.
  10 For Moses said, Honour thy father and thy mother;
  and, Whoso curseth father or mother, let him die the
  death:
  11 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.
  12 And ye suffer him no more to do ought for his
  father or his mother;
  13 Making the word of God of none effect through your
  tradition, which ye have delivered: and many such
  like things do ye.
  14 And when he had called all the people unto him, he
  said unto them, Hearken unto me every one of you, and
  understand:
  15 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.
  16 If any man have ears to hear, let him hear.
  17 And when he was entered into the house from the
  people, his disciples asked him concerning the
  parable.
  18 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;
  19 Because it entereth not into his heart, but into
  the belly, and goeth out into the draught, purging
  all meats?
  20 And he said, That which cometh out of the man,
  that defileth the man.
  21 For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed
  evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders,
  22 Thefts, covetousness, wickedness, deceit,
  lasciviousness, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride,
  foolishness:
  23 All these evil things come from within, and defile
  the man.
  24 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.
  25 For a certain woman, whose young daughter had an
  unclean spirit, heard of him, and came and fell at
  his feet:
  26 The woman was a Greek, a Syrophenician by nation;
  and she besought him that he would cast forth the
  devil out of her daughter.
  27 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.
  28 And she answered and said unto him, Yes, Lord: yet
  the dogs under the table eat of the children's
  crumbs.
  29 And he said unto her, For this saying go thy way;
  the devil is gone out of thy daughter.
  30 And when she was come to her house, she found the
  devil gone out, and her daughter laid upon the bed.
  31 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.
  32 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.
  33 And he took him aside from the multitude, and put
  his fingers into his ears, and he spit, and touched
  his tongue;
  34 And looking up to heaven, he sighed, and saith
  unto him, Ephphatha, that is, Be opened.
  35 And straightway his ears were opened, and the
  string of his tongue was loosed, and he spake plain.
  36 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;
  37 And were beyond measure astonished, saying, He
  hath done all things well: he maketh both the deaf to
  hear, and the dumb to speak.
