CHAP. VII. / 1 The Pharises find fault at the disciples for eating with vnwashen hands. 8 They breake the commandement of God, by the traditions of men. 4 Meate defileth not the man. 24 Hee healeth th

1Then came together vnto him the Pharises, and certain of the Scribes, which came from Hierusalem.Select Mark 7:1

2And when they saw some of his disciples eate bread with defiled (that is to say, with vnwashen) hands, they found fault.Select Mark 7:2

3For the Pharises and all the Iewes, except they wash their hands oft, eate not, holding the tradition of the elders.Select Mark 7:3

4And when they come from the market, except they wash, they eate not. And many other things there be, which they haue receiued to hold, as the washing of cups and pots, brasen vessels, and of tables.Select Mark 7:4

5Then the Pharises and Scribes asked him, Why walke not thy disciples according to the tradition of the Elders, but eate bread with vnwashen hands?Select Mark 7:5

6He answered and said vnto them, Well hath Esaias prophesied of you Hypocrites, as it is written, This people honoureth mee with their lips, but their heart is farre from me.Select Mark 7:6

7Howbeit in vaine doe they worship me, teaching for doctrines, the commandements of men.Select Mark 7:7

8For laying aside the Commandement of God, yee hold the tradition of men, as the washing of pots, and cups: and many other such like things ye doe.Select Mark 7:8

9And he said vnto them, Full well ye reiect the Commandement of God, that ye may keepe your owne tradition.Select Mark 7:9

10For Moses said, Honour thy father & thy mother: and who so curseth father or mother, let him die the death.Select Mark 7:10

11But ye say, If a man shall say to his father or mother, It is Corban, that is to say, a gift, by whatsoeuer thou mightest be profited by me: he shalbe free.Select Mark 7:11

12And ye suffer him no more to doe ought for his father, or his mother:Select Mark 7:12

13Making the word of God of none effect through your tradition, which ye haue deliuered: And many such like things doe ye.Select Mark 7:13

14And when he had called all the people vnto him, hee said vnto them, Hearken vnto me euery one of you, and vnderstand.Select Mark 7:14

15There is nothing from without a man that entring into him, can defile him: but the things which come out of of him, those are they that defile the man.Select Mark 7:15

16If any man haue eares to heare, let him heare.Select Mark 7:16

17And when hee was entred into the house from the people, his disciples asked him concerning the parable.Select Mark 7:17

18And he saith vnto them, Are ye so without vnderstanding also? Doe yee not perceiue that whatsoeuer thing from without entreth into the man, it cannot defile him,Select Mark 7:18

19Because it entreth not into his heart, but into the belly, and goeth out into the draught, purging all meats?Select Mark 7:19

20And he said, That which commeth out of the man, that defileth the man.Select Mark 7:20

21For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed euill thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders,Select Mark 7:21

22Thefts, couetousnesse, wickednesse, deceit, lasciuiousnesse, an euill eye, blasphemie, pride, foolishnesse:Select Mark 7:22

23All these euill things come from within, and defile the man.Select Mark 7:23

24And from thence he arose, and went into the borders of Tyre and Sidon, and entred into an house, and would haue no man know it, but hee could not be hid.Select Mark 7:24

25For a certaine woman, whose yong daughter had an vncleane spirit, heard of him, and came and fell at his feete.Select Mark 7:25

26(The woman was a Greek: a Syrophenician by nation:) and she besought him that he would cast forth the deuill out of her daughter.Select Mark 7:26

27But Iesus said vnto her, Let the children first be filled: for it is not meet to take the childrens bread, and to cast it vnto the dogges.Select Mark 7:27

28And she answered and said vnto him, Yes Lord, yet the dogges vnder the table eat of the childrens crummes.Select Mark 7:28

29And hee said vnto her, For this saying, goe thy way, the deuill is gone out of thy daughter.Select Mark 7:29

30And when shee was come to her house, she found the deuill gone out, and her daughter laied vpon the bed.Select Mark 7:30

31And againe departing from the coastes of Tyre and Sidon, he came vnto the sea of Galilee, thorow the midst of the coasts of Decapolis.Select Mark 7:31

32And they bring vnto him one that was deafe, and had an impediment in his speech: and they beseech him to put his hand vpon him.Select Mark 7:32

33And he tooke him aside from the multitude, and put his fingers into his eares, and he spit, and touched his tongue,Select Mark 7:33

34And looking vp to heauen, hee sighed, and saith vnto him, Ephphatha, that is, Be opened.Select Mark 7:34

35And straightway his eares were opened, and the string of his tongue was loosed, and he spake plaine.Select Mark 7:35

36And hee charged them that they should tell no man: but the more hee charged them, so much the more a great deale they published it,Select Mark 7:36

37And were beyond measure astonished, saying, Hee hath done all things well: hee maketh both the deafe to heare, and the dumbe to speake.Select Mark 7:37
