MT-15:1 Then came to Jesus scribes and Pharisees, which were of
Jerusalem,
saying,
MT-15:2 Why do thy disciples transgress the tradition of the
elders? for they
wash not their hands when they eat bread.
MT-15:3 But he answered and said unto them, Why do ye also
transgress the
commandment of God by your tradition?
MT-15:4 For God commanded, saying, Honour thy father and mother:
and, He that
curseth father or mother, let him die the death.
MT-15:5 But ye say, Whosoever shall say to [his] father or
[his] mother, [It
is] a gift, by whatsoever thou mightest be profited by me;
MT-15:6 And honour not his father or his mother, [he shall be
free]. Thus have
ye made the commandment of God of none effect by your tradition.
MT-15:7 [Ye] hypocrites, well did Esaias prophesy of you,
saying,
MT-15:8 This people draweth nigh unto me with their mouth, and
honoureth me
with [their] lips; but their heart is far from me.
MT-15:9 But in vain they do worship me, teaching [for]
doctrines the
commandments of men.
MT-15:10 And he called the multitude, and said unto them, Hear,
and
understand:
MT-15:11 Not that which goeth into the mouth defileth a man;
but that which
cometh out of the mouth, this defileth a man.
MT-15:12 Then came his disciples, and said unto him, Knowest
thou that the
Pharisees were offended, after they heard this saying?
MT-15:13 But he answered and said, Every plant, which my
heavenly Father hath
not planted, shall be rooted up.
MT-15:14 Let them alone: they be blind leaders of the blind.
And if the blind
lead the blind, both shall fall into the ditch.
MT-15:15 Then answered Peter and said unto him, Declare unto us
this parable.
MT-15:16 And Jesus said, Are ye also yet without understanding?
MT-15:17 Do not ye yet understand, that whatsoever entereth in
at the mouth
goeth into the belly, and is cast out into the draught?
MT-15:18 But those things which proceed out of the mouth come
forth from the
heart; and they defile the man.
MT-15:19 For out of the heart proceed evil thoughts, murders,
adulteries,
fornications, thefts, false witness, blasphemies:
MT-15:20 These are [the things] which defile a man: but to eat
with unwashen
hands defileth not a man.
MT-15:21 Then Jesus went thence, and departed into the coasts
of Tyre and
Sidon.
MT-15:22 And, behold, a woman of Canaan came out of the same
coasts, and cried
unto him, saying, Have mercy on me, O Lord, [thou] son of David;
my daughter is
grievously vexed with a devil.
MT-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.
MT-15:24 But he answered and said, I am not sent but unto the
lost sheep of
the house of Israel.
MT-15:25 Then came she and worshipped him, saying, Lord, help
me.
MT-15:26 But he answered and said, It is not meet to take the
children's
bread, and cast [it] to dogs.
MT-15:27 And she said, Truth, Lord: yet the dogs eat of the
crumbs which fall
from their masters' table.
MT-15:28 Then Jesus answered and said unto her, O woman, great
[is] thy faith:
be it unto thee even as thou wilt. And her daughter was made
whole from that
very hour.
MT-15:29 And Jesus departed from thence, and came nigh unto the
sea of
Galilee; and went up into a mountain, and sat down there.
MT-15:30 And great multitudes came unto him, having with them
[those that
were] lame, blind, dumb, maimed, and many others, and cast them
down at Jesus'
feet; and he healed them:
MT-15:31 Insomuch that the multitude wondered, when they saw
the dumb to
speak, the maimed to be whole, the lame to walk, and the blind
to see: and they
glorified the God of Israel.
MT-15:32 Then Jesus called his disciples [unto him], and said,
I have
compassion on the multitude, because they continue with me now
three days, and
have nothing to eat: and I will not send them away fasting, lest
they faint in
the way.
MT-15:33 And his disciples say unto him, Whence should we have
so much bread
in the wilderness, as to fill so great a multitude?
MT-15:34 And Jesus saith unto them, How many loaves have ye?
And they said,
Seven, and a few little fishes.
MT-15:35 And he commanded the multitude to sit down on the
ground.
MT-15:36 And he took the seven loaves and the fishes, and gave
thanks, and
brake [them], and gave to his disciples, and the disciples to
the multitude.
MT-15:37 And they did all eat, and were filled: and they took
up of the broken
[meat] that was left seven baskets full.
MT-15:38 And they that did eat were four thousand men, beside
women and
children.
MT-15:39 And he sent away the multitude, and took ship, and
came into the
coasts of Magdala.
