Mark 7

The Message Bible MSG

1 The Pharisees, along with some religion scholars who had come from Jerusalem, gathered around him.

2 They noticed that some of his disciples weren't being careful with ritual washings before meals.

3 The Pharisees - Jews in general, in fact - would never eat a meal without going through the motions of a ritual hand-washing,

4 with an especially vigorous scrubbing if they had just come from the market (to say nothing of the scourings they'd give jugs and pots and pans).

5 The Pharisees and religion scholars asked, "Why do your disciples flout the rules, showing up at meals without washing their hands?"

6 Jesus answered, "Isaiah was right about frauds like you, hit the bull's-eye in fact: These people make a big show of saying the right thing, but their heart isn't in it.

7 They act like they are worshiping me, but they don't mean it. They just use me as a cover for teaching whatever suits their fancy,

8 Ditching God's command and taking up the latest fads."

9 He went on, "Well, good for you. You get rid of God's command so you won't be inconvenienced in following the religious fashions!

10 Moses said, 'Respect your father and mother,' and, 'Anyone denouncing father or mother should be killed.'

11 But you weasel out of that by saying that it's perfectly acceptable to say to father or mother, 'Gift! What I owed you I've given as a gift to God,'

12 thus relieving yourselves of obligation to father or mother.

13 You scratch out God's Word and scrawl a whim in its place. You do a lot of things like this."

14 Jesus called the crowd together again and said, "Listen now, all of you - take this to heart.

15 It's not what you swallow that pollutes your life; it's what you vomit - that's the real pollution."

17 When he was back home after being with the crowd, his disciples said, "We don't get it. Put it in plain language."

18 Jesus said, "Are you being willfully stupid? Don't you see that what you swallow can't contaminate you?

19 It doesn't enter your heart but your stomach, works its way through the intestines, and is finally flushed." (That took care of dietary quibbling; Jesus was saying that all foods are fit to eat.)

20 He went on: "It's what comes out of a person that pollutes:

21 obscenities, lusts, thefts, murders, adulteries,

22 greed, depravity, deceptive dealings, carousing, mean looks, slander, arrogance, foolishness -

23 all these are vomit from the heart. There is the source of your pollution."

24 From there Jesus set out for the vicinity of Tyre. He entered a house there where he didn't think he would be found, but he couldn't escape notice.

25 He was barely inside when a woman who had a disturbed daughter heard where he was. She came and knelt at his feet,

26 begging for help. The woman was Greek, Syro-Phoenician by birth. She asked him to cure her daughter.

27 He said, "Stand in line and take your turn. The children get fed first. If there's any left over, the dogs get it."

28 She said, "Of course, Master. But don't dogs under the table get scraps dropped by the children?"

29 Jesus was impressed. "You're right! On your way! Your daughter is no longer disturbed. The demonic affliction is gone."

30 She went home and found her daughter relaxed on the bed, the torment gone for good.

31 Then he left the region of Tyre, went through Sidon back to Galilee Lake and over to the district of the Ten Towns.

32 Some people brought a man who could neither hear nor speak and asked Jesus to lay a healing hand on him.

33 He took the man off by himself, put his fingers in the man's ears and some spit on the man's tongue.

34 Then Jesus looked up in prayer, groaned mightily, and commanded, "Ephphatha! - Open up!"

35 And it happened. The man's hearing was clear and his speech plain - just like that.

36 Jesus urged them to keep it quiet, but they talked it up all the more,

37 beside themselves with excitement. "He's done it all and done it well. He gives hearing to the deaf, speech to the speechless."

The Latin Vulgate VUL

1 et conveniunt ad eum Pharisaei et quidam de scribis venientes ab Hierosolymis

2 et cum vidissent quosdam ex discipulis eius communibus manibus id est non lotis manducare panes vituperaverunt

3 Pharisaei enim et omnes Iudaei nisi crebro lavent manus non manducant tenentes traditionem seniorum

4 et a foro nisi baptizentur non comedunt et alia multa sunt quae tradita sunt illis servare baptismata calicum et urceorum et aeramentorum et lectorum

5 et interrogant eum Pharisaei et scribae quare discipuli tui non ambulant iuxta traditionem seniorum sed communibus manibus manducant panem

6 at ille respondens dixit eis bene prophetavit Esaias de vobis hypocritis sicut scriptum est populus hic labiis me honorat cor autem eorum longe est a me

7 in vanum autem me colunt docentes doctrinas praecepta hominum

8 relinquentes enim mandatum Dei tenetis traditionem hominum baptismata urceorum et calicum et alia similia his facitis multa

9 et dicebat illis bene irritum facitis praeceptum Dei ut traditionem vestram servetis

10 Moses enim dixit honora patrem tuum et matrem tuam et qui maledixerit patri aut matri morte moriatur

11 vos autem dicitis si dixerit homo patri aut matri corban quod est donum quodcumque ex me tibi profuerit

12 et ultra non dimittitis eum quicquam facere patri suo aut matri

13 rescindentes verbum Dei per traditionem vestram quam tradidistis et similia huiusmodi multa facitis

14 et advocans iterum turbam dicebat illis audite me omnes et intellegite

15 nihil est extra hominem introiens in eum quod possit eum coinquinare sed quae de homine procedunt illa sunt quae communicant hominem

17 et cum introisset in domum a turba interrogabant eum discipuli eius parabolam

18 et ait illis sic et vos inprudentes estis non intellegitis quia omne extrinsecus introiens in hominem non potest eum communicare

19 quia non introit in cor eius sed in ventrem et in secessum exit purgans omnes escas

20 dicebat autem quoniam quae de homine exeunt illa communicant hominem

21 ab intus enim de corde hominum cogitationes malae procedunt adulteria fornicationes homicidia

22 furta avaritiae nequitiae dolus inpudicitia oculus malus blasphemia superbia stultitia

23 omnia haec mala ab intus procedunt et communicant hominem

24 et inde surgens abiit in fines Tyri et Sidonis et ingressus domum neminem voluit scire et non potuit latere

25 mulier enim statim ut audivit de eo cuius habebat filia spiritum inmundum intravit et procidit ad pedes eius

26 erat autem mulier gentilis Syrophoenissa genere et rogabat eum ut daemonium eiceret de filia eius

27 qui dixit illi sine prius saturari filios non est enim bonum sumere panem filiorum et mittere canibus

28 at illa respondit et dicit ei utique Domine nam et catelli sub mensa comedunt de micis puerorum

29 et ait illi propter hunc sermonem vade exiit daemonium de filia tua

30 et cum abisset domum suam invenit puellam iacentem supra lectum et daemonium exisse

31 et iterum exiens de finibus Tyri venit per Sidonem ad mare Galilaeae inter medios fines Decapoleos

32 et adducunt ei surdum et mutum et deprecantur eum ut inponat illi manum

33 et adprehendens eum de turba seorsum misit digitos suos in auriculas et expuens tetigit linguam eius

34 et suspiciens in caelum ingemuit et ait illi eppheta quod est adaperire

35 et statim apertae sunt aures eius et solutum est vinculum linguae eius et loquebatur recte

36 et praecepit illis ne cui dicerent quanto autem eis praecipiebat tanto magis plus praedicabant

37 et eo amplius admirabantur dicentes bene omnia fecit et surdos facit audire et mutos loqui
