15:1 Then 5119 came 4334 5736 to Jesus 2424 scribes 1122 and 2532 Pharisees 5330, which were of 575 Jerusalem 2414, saying 3004 5723,

15:2 Why 1302 do thy 4675 disciples 3101 transgress 3845 5719 the tradition 3862 of the elders 4245? for 1063 they wash 3538 5731 not 3756 their 846 hands 5495 when 3752 they eat 2068 5725 bread 740.

15:3 But 1161 he answered 611 5679 and said 2036 5627 unto them 846, Why 1302 do ye 5210 also 2532 transgress 3845 5719 the commandment 1785 of God 2316 by 1223 your 5216 tradition 3862?

15:4 For 1063 God 2316 commanded 1781 5662, saying 3004 5723, Honour 5091 5720 thy 4675 father 3962 and 2532 mother 3384: and 2532, He that curseth 2551 5723 father 3962 or 2228 mother 3384, let him die 5053 5720 the death 2288.

15:5 But 1161 ye 5210 say 3004 5719, Whosoever 3739 302 shall say 2036 5632 to [his] father 3962 or 2228 [his] mother 3384, [It is] a gift 1435, by 1537 whatsoever 3739 1437 thou mightest be profited 5623 5686 by me 1700;

15:6 And 2532 honour 5091 5661 not 3364 his 846 father 3962 or 2228 his 846 mother 3384, [he shall be free]. Thus 2532 have ye made 208 0 the commandment 1785 of God 2316 of none effect 208 5656 by 1223 your 5216 tradition 3862.

15:7 [Ye] hypocrites 5273, well 2573 did 4395 0 Esaias 2268 prophesy 4395 5656 of 4012 you 5216, saying 3004 5723,

15:8 This 3778 people 2992 draweth nigh 1448 5719 unto me 3427 with their 846 mouth 4750, and 2532 honoureth 5091 5719 me 3165 with [their] lips 5491; but 1161 their 846 heart 2588 is 568 5719 far 4206 from 575 me 1700.

15:9 But 1161 in vain 3155 they do worship 4576 5736 me 3165, teaching 1321 5723 [for] doctrines 1319 the commandments 1778 of men 444.

15:10 And 2532 he called 4341 5666 the multitude 3793, and said 2036 5627 unto them 846, Hear 191 5720, and 2532 understand 4920 5720:

15:11 Not 3756 that which goeth 1525 5740 into 1519 the mouth 4750 defileth 2840 5719 a man 444; but 235 that which cometh 1607 5740 out of 1537 the mouth 4750, this 5124 defileth 2840 5719 a man 444.

15:12 Then 5119 came 4334 5631 his 846 disciples 3101, and said 2036 5627 unto him 846, Knowest thou 1492 5758 that 3754 the Pharisees 5330 were offended 4624 5681, after they heard 191 5660 this saying 3056?

15:13 But 1161 he answered 611 5679 and said 2036 5627, Every 3956 plant 5451, which 3739 my 3450 heavenly 3770 Father 3962 hath 5452 0 not 3756 planted 5452 5656, shall be rooted up 1610 5701.

15:14 Let 863 0 them 846 alone 863 5628: they be 1526 5748 blind 5185 leaders 3595 of the blind 5185. And 1161 if 1437 the blind 5185 lead 3594 5725 the blind 5185, both 297 shall fall 4098 5699 into 1519 the ditch 999.

15:15 Then 1161 answered 611 5679 Peter 4074 and said 2036 5627 unto him 846, Declare 5419 5657 unto us 2254 this 5026 parable 3850.

15:16 And 1161 Jesus 2424 said 2036 5627, Are 2075 5748 ye 5210 also 2532 yet 188 without understanding 801?

15:17 Do 3539 0 not 3768 0 ye 3539 0 yet 3768 understand 3539 5719, that 3754 whatsoever 3956 entereth in 1531 5740 at 1519 the mouth 4750 goeth 5562 5719 into 1519 the belly 2836, and 2532 is cast out 1544 5743 into 1519 the draught 856?

15:18 But 1161 those things which 3588 proceed 1607 5740 out of 1537 the mouth 4750 come forth 1831 5736 from 1537 the heart 2588; and they 2548 defile 2840 5719 the man 444.

15:19 For 1063 out of 1537 the heart 2588 proceed 1831 5736 evil 4190 thoughts 1261, murders 5408, adulteries 3430, fornications 4202, thefts 2829, false witness 5577, blasphemies 988:

15:20 These 5023 are 2076 5748 [the things] which 3588 defile 2840 5723 a man 444: but 1161 to eat 5315 5629 with unwashen 449 hands 5495 defileth 2840 5719 not 3756 a man 444.

15:21 Then 2532 Jesus 2424 went 1831 5631 thence 1564, and departed 402 5656 into 1519 the coasts 3313 of Tyre 5184 and 2532 Sidon 4605.

15:22 And 2532, behold 2400 5628, a woman 1135 of Canaan 5478 came 1831 5631 out of 575 the same 1565 coasts 3725, and cried 2905 5656 unto him 846, saying 3004 5723, Have mercy 1653 5657 on me 3165, O Lord 2962, [thou] Son 5207 of David 1138; my 3450 daughter 2364 is grievously 2560 vexed with a devil 1139 5736.

15:23 But 1161 he answered 611 5662 her 846 not 3756 a word 3056. And 2532 his 846 disciples 3101 came 4334 5631 and besought 2065 5707 him 846, saying 3004 5723, Send 630 0 her 846 away 630 5657; for 3754 she crieth 2896 5719 after 3693 us 2257.

15:24 But 1161 he answered 611 5679 and said 2036 5627, I am 649 0 not 3756 sent 649 5648 but 1508 unto 1519 the lost 622 5756 sheep 4263 of the house 3624 of Israel 2474.

15:25 Then 1161 came she 2064 5631 and worshipped 4352 5707 him 846, saying 3004 5723, Lord 2962, help 997 5720 me 3427.

15:26 But 1161 he answered 611 5679 and said 2036 5627, It is 2076 5748 not 3756 meet 2570 to take 2983 5629 the children's 5043 bread 740, and 2532 to cast 906 5629 [it] to dogs 2952.

15:27 And 1161 she said 2036 5627, Truth 3483, Lord 2962: yet 2532 1063 the dogs 2952 eat 2068 5719 of 575 the crumbs 5589 which 3588 fall 4098 5723 from 575 their 846 masters' 2962 table 5132.

15:28 Then 5119 Jesus 2424 answered 611 5679 and said 2036 5627 unto her 846, O 5599 woman 1135, great 3173 [is] thy 4675 faith 4102: be it 1096 5676 unto thee 4671 even as 5613 thou wilt 2309 5719. And 2532 her 846 daughter 2364 was made whole 2390 5681 from 575 that very 1565 hour 5610.

15:29 And 2532 Jesus 2424 departed 3327 5631 from thence 1564, and came 2064 5627 nigh unto 3844 the sea 2281 of Galilee 1056; and 2532 went up 305 5631 into 1519 a mountain 3735, and sat down 2521 5711 there 1563.

15:30 And 2532 great 4183 multitudes 3793 came 4334 5656 unto him 846, having 2192 5723 with 3326 them [those that were] 1438 lame 5560, blind 5185, dumb 2974, maimed 2948, and 2532 many 4183 others 2087, and 2532 cast 4496 0 them 846 down 4496 5656 at 3844 Jesus' 2424 feet 4228; and 2532 he healed 2323 5656 them 846:

15:31 Insomuch that 5620 the multitude 3793 wondered 2296 5658, when they saw 991 5723 the dumb 2974 to speak 2980 5723, the maimed 2948 to be whole 5199, the lame 5560 to walk 4043 5723, and 2532 the blind 5185 to see 991 5723: and 2532 they glorified 1392 5656 the God 2316 of Israel 2474.

15:32 Then 1161 Jesus 2424 called 4341 5666 his 846 disciples 3101 [unto him], and said 2036 5627, I have compassion 4697 5736 on 1909 the multitude 3793, because 3754 they continue 4357 5719 with me 3427 now 2235 three 5140 days 2250, and 2532 have 2192 5719 nothing 3756 5101 to eat 5315 5632: and 2532 I will 2309 5719 not 3756 send 630 0 them 846 away 630 5658 fasting 3523, lest 3379 they faint 1590 5686 in 1722 the way 3598.

15:33 And 2532 his 846 disciples 3101 say 3004 5719 unto him 846, Whence 4159 should we 2254 have so much 5118 bread 740 in 1722 the wilderness 2047, as 5620 to fill 5526 5658 so great 5118 a multitude 3793?

15:34 And 2532 Jesus 2424 saith 3004 5719 unto them 846, How many 4214 loaves 740 have ye 2192 5719? And 1161 they said 2036 5627, Seven 2033, and 2532 a few 3641 little fishes 2485.

15:35 And 2532 he commanded 2753 5656 the multitude 3793 to sit down 377 5629 on 1909 the ground 1093.

15:36 And 2532 he took 2983 5631 the seven 2033 loaves 740 and 2532 the fishes 2486, and gave thanks 2168 5660, and brake 2806 5656 [them], and 2532 gave 1325 5656 to his 846 disciples 3101, and 1161 the disciples 3101 to the multitude 3793.

15:37 And 2532 they did 5315 0 all 3956 eat 5315 5627, and 2532 were filled 5526 5681: and 2532 they took up 142 5656 of the broken 2801 [meat] that was left 4052 5723 seven 2033 baskets 4711 full 4134.

15:38 And 1161 they that did eat 2068 5723 were 2258 5713 four thousand 5070 men 435, beside 5565 women 1135 and 2532 children 3813.

15:39 And 2532 he sent away 630 5660 the multitude 3793, and took 1684 5627 ship 1519 4143, and 2532 came 2064 5627 into 1519 the coasts 3725 of Magdala 3093.
