Dual Panel1Then <5119> Pharisees <5330> and <2532> experts in the law <1122> came <4334> from <575> Jerusalem <2414> to Jesus <2424> and said <3004>,
2“Why <5101> do <3845> your <4675> disciples <3101> disobey <3845> the tradition <3862> of the elders <4245>? For <1063> they don’t <3756> wash <3538> their hands <5495> when <3752> they eat <2068>.”
3He answered <611> them <846>, “And why <5101> do <3845> you <5210> disobey <3845> the commandment <1785> of God <2316> because <1223> of your <5216> tradition <3862>?
4For <1063> God <2316> said <3004>, ‘Honor <5091> your father <3962> and <2532> mother <3384>’ and <2532> ‘Whoever insults <2551> his father <3962> or <2228> mother <3384> must be put <5053> to death <2288>.’
5But <1161> you say <3004>, ‘If someone <3739> <302> tells <2036> his father <3962> or <2228> mother <3384>, “Whatever help you would have received <5623> from <1537> me <1700> is given to God <1435>,”
6he does not need to honor his father.’ You have nullified <208> the word <3056> of God <2316> on account of <1223> your <5216> tradition <3862>.
7Hypocrites <5273>! Isaiah <2268> prophesied <4395> correctly <2573> about <4012> you <5216> when he said <3004>,
8‘This <3778> people <2992> honors <5091> me with their lips <5491>, but <1161> their <846> heart <2588> is <568> far <4206> from <575> me <1700>,
9and they worship <4576> me <3165> in vain <3155>, teaching <1321> as doctrines <1319> the commandments <1778> of men <444>.’”
10Then <2532> he called <4341> the crowd <3793> to him and said <2036>, “Listen <191> and <2532> understand <4920>.
11What defiles <2840> a person <444> is <1525> not <3756> what goes <1525> into <1519> the mouth <4750>; it is what <235> comes out <1607> of <1537> the mouth <4750> that <5124> defiles <2840> a person <444>.”
12Then <5119> the disciples <3101> came <4334> to him <846> and said <3004>, “Do you know <1492> that <3754> when the Pharisees <5330> heard <191> this saying <3056> they were offended <4624>?”
13And <1161> he replied <611> <2036>, “Every <3956> plant <5451> that <3739> my <3450> heavenly <3770> Father <3962> did <5452> not <3756> plant <5452> will be uprooted <1610>.
14Leave <863> them <846>! They are <1510> blind <5185> guides <3595>. If <1437> someone who is blind <5185> leads <3594> another who is blind <5185>, both <297> will fall <4098> into <1519> a pit <999>.”
15But <1161> Peter <4074> said <2036> to him <846>, “Explain <5419> this parable <3850> to us <2254>.”
16Jesus said <2036>, “Even <188> after all this, are <1510> you <5210> still so foolish <801>?
17Don’t <3756> you understand <3539> that <3754> whatever <3956> goes <1531> into <1519> the mouth <4750> enters <1519> <5562> the stomach <2836> and <2532> then passes out <1544> into <1519> the sewer <856>?
18But <1161> the things that come out <1607> of <1537> the mouth <4750> come <1831> from <1537> the heart <2588>, and these things <2548> defile <2840> a person <444>.
19For <1063> out <1537> of the heart <2588> come <1831> evil <4190> ideas <1261>, murder <5408>, adultery <3430>, sexual immorality <4202>, theft <2829>, false testimony <5577>, slander <988>.
20These <5023> are <1510> the things that defile <2840> a person <444>; it is <5315> not <3756> eating <5315> with unwashed <449> hands <5495> that defiles <2840> a person <444>.”
21After going out <1831> from there <1564>, Jesus <2424> went <402> to <1519> the region <3313> of Tyre <5184> and <2532> Sidon <4605>.
22A Canaanite <5478> woman <1135> from <575> that <1565> area <3725> came <1831> and cried out <2896> <3004>, “Have mercy <1653> on me <3165>, Lord <2962>, Son <5207> of David <1138>! My <3450> daughter <2364> is <1139> horribly <2560> demon-possessed <1139>!”
23But <1161> he did <611> not <3756> answer <611> her <846> a word <3056>. Then <2532> his <846> disciples <3101> came <4334> and begged <2065> him <846>, “Send <630> her <846> away <630>, because <3754> she keeps on crying out <2896> after <3693> us <2257>.”
24So <1161> he answered <611> <2036>, “I was sent <649> only <1487> <3361> to <1519> the lost <622> sheep <4263> of <3624> the house <3624> of Israel <2474>.”
25But <1161> she came <2064> and bowed down <4352> before him <846> and said <3004>, “Lord <2962>, help <997> me <3427>!”
26“It is <1510> not <3756> right <2570> to take <2983> the children’s <5043> bread <740> and <2532> throw <906> it to the dogs <2952>,” he said <2036>. said <611>.
27“Yes <3483>, Lord <2962>,” she replied <2036>, “but <2532> even <1063> the dogs <2952> eat <2068> the crumbs <5589> that fall <4098> from <575> their <846> masters <2962>’ table <5132>.”
28Then <5119> Jesus <2424> answered <611> <2036> her <846>, “Woman <1135>, your <4675> faith <4102> is great <3173>! Let what you want <2309> be done <1096> for you <4671>.” And <2532> her <846> daughter <2364> was healed <2390> from <575> that <1565> hour <5610>.
29When <3327> he left <3327> there <1564>, Jesus <2424> went <2064> along <3844> the Sea <2281> of Galilee <1056>. Then <2532> he went up <305> a mountain <3735>, where <1563> he sat down <2521>.
30Then <2532> large <4183> crowds <3793> came <4334> to him <846> bringing <2192> with <3326> them <1438> the lame <5560>, blind <5185>, crippled <2948>, mute <2974>, and <2532> many <4183> others <2087>. They laid <4496> them <846> at <3844> his <846> feet <4228>, and <2532> he healed <2323> them <846>.
31As a result <5620>, the crowd <3793> was amazed <2296> when <991> they saw <991> the mute <2974> speaking <2980>, the crippled healthy, the lame <5560> walking <4043>, and <2532> the blind <5185> seeing <991>, and <2532> they praised <1392> the God <2316> of Israel <2474>.
32Then <4341> Jesus <2424> called <4341> the disciples <3101> and said <2036>, “I have compassion <4697> on <1909> the crowd <3793>, because <3754> they have <4357> already <2235> been here <4357> with me <3427> three <5140> days <2250> and <2532> they have <2192> nothing <3756> to eat <5315>. I <2309> don’t <3756> want <2309> to send <630> them <846> away <630> hungry <3523> since <3379> they may faint <1590> on <1722> the way <3598>.”
33The disciples <3101> said <3004> to him <846>, “Where <4159> can we <2254> get enough bread <740> in <1722> this desolate place <2047> to satisfy <5526> so great <5118> a crowd <3793>?”
34Jesus <2424> said <3004> to them <846>, “How many <4214> loaves <740> do you have <2192>?” They <1161> replied <3004>, “Seven <2033>– and <2532> a few <3641> small fish <2485>.”
35After instructing <3853> the crowd <3793> to sit down <377> on <1909> the ground <1093>,
36he took <2983> the seven <2033> loaves <740> and <2532> the fish <2486>, and <2532> after giving thanks <2168>, he broke <2806> them and began giving <1325> them to the disciples <3101>, who <3101> then gave them to the crowds <3793>.
37They <5315> all <3956> ate <5315> and <2532> were satisfied <5526>, and <2532> they picked up <142> the broken pieces <2801> left over <4052>, seven <2033> baskets <4711> full <4134>.
38Not counting <5565> children <3813> and <2532> women <1135>, there were <1510> four thousand <5070> men <435> who ate <2068>.
39After sending away <630> the crowd <3793>, he got <1684> into <1519> the boat <4143> and <2532> went <2064> to <1519> the region <3725> of Magadan <3093>.
