Matthew 15:10-20

10 And when the people were called together to him, he said to them, Hear ye, and understand ye. [+And the companies called together to him, he said to them, Hear, and understand.]
11 That thing that entereth into the mouth, defouleth not a man [Not that thing that entereth into the mouth, defouleth a man]; but that thing that cometh out of the mouth, defouleth a man.
12 Then his disciples came, and said to him, Thou knowest, that, if this word be heard, the Pharisees be offended? [Then his disciples coming nigh said to him, Knowest thou, that, this word heard, Pharisees be offended?]
13 And he answered, and said, Every planting, that my Father of heaven hath not planted [which my Father of heaven hath not planted], shall be drawn up by the root.
14 Suffer ye them; they be blind, and leaders of blind men. And if a blind man lead a blind man, both fall into the ditch [both fall down into the ditch].
15 Peter answered, and said to him, Expound to us this parable.
16 And he said, Yet be ye also without understanding/Yet ye be without understanding? [And he said, Yet also ye be without understanding?]
17 Understand ye not, that all thing that entereth into the mouth, goeth into the womb, and is sent out into the going away?
18 But those things that come forth from the mouth, go out from the heart [go out of the heart], and those things defoul the man.
19 For of the heart go out evil thoughts [For out of the heart cometh evil thoughts], manslayings, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witnessings, blasphemies.
20 These things it be that defoul a man; but to eat with hands not washed [soothly for to eat with hands unwashen], defouleth not a man.
