NIV

1 And the Pharisees and some of the scribes came from Jerusalem together to him. [And the Pharisees and some of the scribes coming from Jerusalem, came together to him.]
1 The Pharisees and some of the teachers of the law who had come from Jerusalem gathered around Jesus
2 And when they had seen some of his disciples eat bread with unwashen hands, they blamed [them].
2 and saw some of his disciples eating food with hands that were defiled, that is, unwashed.
3 For the Pharisees and all the Jews eat not, but they wash oft their hands, holding the traditions of elder men.
3 (The Pharisees and all the Jews do not eat unless they give their hands a ceremonial washing, holding to the tradition of the elders.
4 And when they turn again from [the] market, they eat not, but they be washed; and many other things there be, that be taken to them to keep, as washing of cups, and of water vessels [washings of cups and cruets], and of vessels of brass, and of beds.
4 When they come from the marketplace they do not eat unless they wash. And they observe many other traditions, such as the washing of cups, pitchers and kettles. )
5 And Pharisees and scribes asked him, and said [saying], Why go not thy disciples after the tradition of elder men, but with unwashen hands they eat bread?
5 So the Pharisees and teachers of the law asked Jesus, “Why don’t your disciples live according to the tradition of the elders instead of eating their food with defiled hands?”
6 And he answered, and said to them, Esaias prophesied well of you, hypocrites, as it is written, This people worshippeth me with lips [This people honoureth me with lips], but their heart is far from me;
6 He replied, “Isaiah was right when he prophesied about you hypocrites; as it is written: “ ‘These people honor me with their lips, but their hearts are far from me.
7 and in vain they worship me, teaching the doctrines and the behests of men. [in vain truly they worship me, teaching the doctrines and commandments of men.]
7 They worship me in vain; their teachings are merely human rules.’
8 For ye leave the commandment of God, and hold the traditions of men, as [the] washing of water vessels, and of cups; and many other things like these ye do. [Forsooth ye forsaking the commandment of God, hold the traditions of men, washings of cruets, and cups; and many other things like to these ye do.]
8 You have let go of the commands of God and are holding on to human traditions.”
9 And he said to them, Well ye have made the commandment of God void, to keep your tradition. [And he said to them, Well ye have made the commandment of God void, that ye keep your tradition.]
9 And he continued, “You have a fine way of setting aside the commands of God in order to observeyour own traditions!
10 For Moses said, Worship thy father and thy mother [Honour thou thy father and thy mother]; and he that curseth father or mother, die he by death.
10 For Moses said, ‘Honor your father and mother,’and, ‘Anyone who curses their father or mother is to be put to death.’
11 But ye say, If a man [shall] say to father or mother, Corban, that is, Whatever gift is of me, it shall profit to thee;
11 But you say that if anyone declares that what might have been used to help their father or mother is Corban (that is, devoted to God)—
12 and over [and further] ye suffer not him [to] do any thing to father or mother,
12 then you no longer let them do anything for their father or mother.
13 and ye break the word of God by your tradition, that ye have given [+breaking the word of God by your tradition, which ye have given]; and ye do many [other] such things.
13 Thus you nullify the word of God by your tradition that you have handed down. And you do many things like that.”
14 And he again called the people, and said to them, Ye all hear me, and understand.
14 Again Jesus called the crowd to him and said, “Listen to me, everyone, and understand this.
15 Nothing that is without a man, that entereth into him, may defoul him [Nothing without man is entering into him, that may defoul him]; but those things that come forth of a man, those it be that defoul a man.
15 Nothing outside a person can defile them by going into them. Rather, it is what comes out of a person that defiles them.”
16 If any man have ears of hearing [Forsooth if any man have ears to hear], hear he.
17 And when he was entered into an house, from the people, his disciples asked him the parable.
17 After he had left the crowd and entered the house, his disciples asked him about this parable.
18 And he said to them [And he saith to them], [So] Ye be unwise also. Understand ye not, that all thing withoutforth that entereth into a man, may not defoul him?
18 “Are you so dull?” he asked. “Don’t you see that nothing that enters a person from the outside can defile them?
19 for it hath not entered into his heart, but into the womb, and beneath it goeth out, purging all meats.
19 For it doesn’t go into their heart but into their stomach, and then out of the body.” (In saying this, Jesus declared all foods clean.)
20 But he said, The things that go out of a man, those defoul a man.
20 He went on: “What comes out of a person is what defiles them.
21 For from within, of the heart of men come forth evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, manslayings,
21 For it is from within, out of a person’s heart, that evil thoughts come—sexual immorality, theft, murder,
22 thefts, avarices [covetousness, or over-hard keeping of goods], wickednesses, guile, unchastity, [an] evil eye, blasphemies [blasphemy], pride, folly.
22 adultery, greed, malice, deceit, lewdness, envy, slander, arrogance and folly.
23 All these evils come forth from within, and defoul a man,
23 All these evils come from inside and defile a person.”
24 And Jesus rose up from thence, and went into the coasts [the ends] of Tyre and Sidon. And he went into an house, and would that no man knew [And he gone into an house, would that no man know]; and he might not be hid.
24 Jesus left that place and went to the vicinity of Tyre. He entered a house and did not want anyone to know it; yet he could not keep his presence secret.
25 For a woman, at once [anon] as she heard of him, whose daughter had an unclean spirit, entered, and fell down at his feet.
25 In fact, as soon as she heard about him, a woman whose little daughter was possessed by an impure spirit came and fell at his feet.
26 And the woman was heathen, of the generation of Syrophenician. And she prayed him, that he would cast out a devil from her daughter [that he would cast out a devil of her daughter].
26 The woman was a Greek, born in Syrian Phoenicia. She begged Jesus to drive the demon out of her daughter.
27 And he said to her, Suffer thou, that the children be fulfilled first [Suffer thou, that the sons be filled first]; for it is not good to take the bread of children, and give [it] to hounds.
27 “First let the children eat all they want,” he told her, “for it is not right to take the children’s bread and toss it to the dogs.”
28 And she answered, and said to him, Yes, Lord; for little whelps eat under the board, of the crumbs of children.
28 “Lord,” she replied, “even the dogs under the table eat the children’s crumbs.”
29 And Jesus said to her, Go thou, for this word the fiend went out of thy daughter. [+And he said to her, For this word go, the fiend went out of thy daughter.]
29 Then he told her, “For such a reply, you may go; the demon has left your daughter.”
30 And when she was gone into her house home, she found the damsel lying on the bed [+And when she had gone home/And when she had gone into her house, she found the damsel lying on the bed], and the devil gone out from her.
30 She went home and found her child lying on the bed, and the demon gone.
31 And again Jesus went out from the coasts of Tyre, and came through Sidon to the sea of Galilee [And again Jesus going out from the ends, or coasts, of Tyre, came through Sidon to the sea of Galilee], between the middle of the coasts of Decapolis.
31 Then Jesus left the vicinity of Tyre and went through Sidon, down to the Sea of Galilee and into the region of the Decapolis.
32 And they bring to him a man deaf and dumb, and prayed him to lay his hand on him [and prayed him, that he put to him the hand].
32 There some people brought to him a man who was deaf and could hardly talk, and they begged Jesus to place his hand on him.
33 And he took him aside from the people, and put his fingers into his ears [+And he taking him aside from the company, put his fingers into his ears]; and he spat, and touched his tongue.
33 After he took him aside, away from the crowd, Jesus put his fingers into the man’s ears. Then he spit and touched the man’s tongue.
34 And he beheld into heaven, and sorrowed within, and said [And he beholding into heaven, sorrowed within, and saith to him], Ephphatha, that is, Be thou opened.
34 He looked up to heaven and with a deep sigh said to him, “Ephphatha!” (which means “Be opened!”).
35 And at once [And anon] his ears were opened, and the band of his tongue was unbound, and he spake rightly.
35 At this, the man’s ears were opened, his tongue was loosened and he began to speak plainly.
36 And he commanded to them, that they should say to no man; but how much he commanded to them, so much the more they preached [more],
36 Jesus commanded them not to tell anyone. But the more he did so, the more they kept talking about it.
37 and by so much the more they wondered, and said [saying], He did well all things, both he hath made deaf men to hear, and dumb men to speak.
37 People were overwhelmed with amazement. “He has done everything well,” they said. “He even makes the deaf hear and the mute speak.”
