The Latin Vulgate VUL
New International Version NIV
1 tunc accesserunt ad eum ab Hierosolymis scribae et Pharisaei dicentes
1
Then some Pharisees and teachers of the law came to Jesus from Jerusalem and asked,
2 quare discipuli tui transgrediuntur traditionem seniorum non enim lavant manus suas cum panem manducant
2
“Why do your disciples break the tradition of the elders? They don’t wash their hands before they eat!”
3 ipse autem respondens ait illis quare et vos transgredimini mandatum Dei propter traditionem vestram
3
Jesus replied, “And why do you break the command of God for the sake of your tradition?
4 nam Deus dixit honora patrem et matrem et qui maledixerit patri vel matri morte moriatur
4
For God said, ‘Honor your father and mother’and ‘Anyone who curses their father or mother is to be put to death.’
5 vos autem dicitis quicumque dixerit patri vel matri munus quodcumque est ex me tibi proderit
5
But you say that if anyone declares that what might have been used to help their father or mother is ‘devoted to God,’
6 et non honorificabit patrem suum aut matrem et irritum fecistis mandatum Dei propter traditionem vestram
6
they are not to ‘honor their father or mother’ with it. Thus you nullify the word of God for the sake of your tradition.
7 hypocritae bene prophetavit de vobis Esaias dicens
7
You hypocrites! Isaiah was right when he prophesied about you:
8 populus hic labiis me honorat cor autem eorum longe est a me
8
“ ‘These people honor me with their lips, but their hearts are far from me.
9 sine causa autem colunt me docentes doctrinas mandata hominum
9
They worship me in vain; their teachings are merely human rules.’”
10 et convocatis ad se turbis dixit eis audite et intellegite
10
Jesus called the crowd to him and said, “Listen and understand.
11 non quod intrat in os coinquinat hominem sed quod procedit ex ore hoc coinquinat hominem
11
What goes into someone’s mouth does not defile them, but what comes out of their mouth, that is what defiles them.”
12 tunc accedentes discipuli eius dixerunt ei scis quia Pharisaei audito verbo scandalizati sunt
12
Then the disciples came to him and asked, “Do you know that the Pharisees were offended when they heard this?”
13 at ille respondens ait omnis plantatio quam non plantavit Pater meus caelestis eradicabitur
13
He replied, “Every plant that my heavenly Father has not planted will be pulled up by the roots.
14 sinite illos caeci sunt duces caecorum caecus autem si caeco ducatum praestet ambo in foveam cadunt
14
Leave them; they are blind guides.If the blind lead the blind, both will fall into a pit.”
15 respondens autem Petrus dixit ei edissere nobis parabolam istam
15
Peter said, “Explain the parable to us.”
16 at ille dixit adhuc et vos sine intellectu estis
16
“Are you still so dull?” Jesus asked them.
17 non intellegitis quia omne quod in os intrat in ventrem vadit et in secessum emittitur
17
“Don’t you see that whatever enters the mouth goes into the stomach and then out of the body?
18 quae autem procedunt de ore de corde exeunt et ea coinquinant hominem
18
But the things that come out of a person’s mouth come from the heart, and these defile them.
19 de corde enim exeunt cogitationes malae homicidia adulteria fornicationes furta falsa testimonia blasphemiae
19
For out of the heart come evil thoughts—murder, adultery, sexual immorality, theft, false testimony, slander.
20 haec sunt quae coinquinant hominem non lotis autem manibus manducare non coinquinat hominem
20
These are what defile a person; but eating with unwashed hands does not defile them.”
21 et egressus inde Iesus secessit in partes Tyri et Sidonis
21
Leaving that place, Jesus withdrew to the region of Tyre and Sidon.
22 et ecce mulier chananea a finibus illis egressa clamavit dicens ei miserere mei Domine Fili David filia mea male a daemonio vexatur
22
A Canaanite woman from that vicinity came to him, crying out, “Lord, Son of David, have mercy on me! My daughter is demon-possessed and suffering terribly.”
23 qui non respondit ei verbum et accedentes discipuli eius rogabant eum dicentes dimitte eam quia clamat post nos
23
Jesus did not answer a word. So his disciples came to him and urged him, “Send her away, for she keeps crying out after us.”
24 ipse autem respondens ait non sum missus nisi ad oves quae perierunt domus Israhel
24
He answered, “I was sent only to the lost sheep of Israel.”
25 at illa venit et adoravit eum dicens Domine adiuva me
25
The woman came and knelt before him. “Lord, help me!” she said.
26 qui respondens ait non est bonum sumere panem filiorum et mittere canibus
26
He replied, “It is not right to take the children’s bread and toss it to the dogs.”
27 at illa dixit etiam Domine nam et catelli edunt de micis quae cadunt de mensa dominorum suorum
27
“Yes it is, Lord,” she said. “Even the dogs eat the crumbs that fall from their master’s table.”
28 tunc respondens Iesus ait illi o mulier magna est fides tua fiat tibi sicut vis et sanata est filia illius ex illa hora
28
Then Jesus said to her, “Woman, you have great faith! Your request is granted.” And her daughter was healed at that moment.
29 et cum transisset inde Iesus venit secus mare Galilaeae et ascendens in montem sedebat ibi
29
Jesus left there and went along the Sea of Galilee. Then he went up on a mountainside and sat down.
30 et accesserunt ad eum turbae multae habentes secum mutos clodos caecos debiles et alios multos et proiecerunt eos ad pedes eius et curavit eos
30
Great crowds came to him, bringing the lame, the blind, the crippled, the mute and many others, and laid them at his feet; and he healed them.
31 ita ut turbae mirarentur videntes mutos loquentes clodos ambulantes caecos videntes et magnificabant Deum Israhel
31
The people were amazed when they saw the mute speaking, the crippled made well, the lame walking and the blind seeing. And they praised the God of Israel.
32 Iesus autem convocatis discipulis suis dixit misereor turbae quia triduo iam perseverant mecum et non habent quod manducent et dimittere eos ieiunos nolo ne deficiant in via
32
Jesus called his disciples to him and said, “I have compassion for these people; they have already been with me three days and have nothing to eat. I do not want to send them away hungry, or they may collapse on the way.”
33 et dicunt ei discipuli unde ergo nobis in deserto panes tantos ut saturemus turbam tantam
33
His disciples answered, “Where could we get enough bread in this remote place to feed such a crowd?”
34 et ait illis Iesus quot panes habetis at illi dixerunt septem et paucos pisciculos
34
“How many loaves do you have?” Jesus asked. “Seven,” they replied, “and a few small fish.”
35 et praecepit turbae ut discumberet super terram
35
He told the crowd to sit down on the ground.
36 et accipiens septem panes et pisces et gratias agens fregit et dedit discipulis suis et discipuli dederunt populo
36
Then he took the seven loaves and the fish, and when he had given thanks, he broke them and gave them to the disciples, and they in turn to the people.
37 et comederunt omnes et saturati sunt et quod superfuit de fragmentis tulerunt septem sportas plenas
37
They all ate and were satisfied. Afterward the disciples picked up seven basketfuls of broken pieces that were left over.
38 erant autem qui manducaverant quattuor milia hominum extra parvulos et mulieres
38
The number of those who ate was four thousand men, besides women and children.
39 et dimissa turba ascendit in naviculam et venit in fines Magedan
39
After Jesus had sent the crowd away, he got into the boat and went to the vicinity of Magadan.
