Mark 7 (ASV Interlinear Bible)

1And there are gathered together unto him the Pharisees, and certain of the scribes, who had come from Jerusalem,

2and had seen that some of his disciples ate their bread with

5And the Pharisees and the scribes ask him, Why walk not thy disciples according to the tradition of the elders, but eat their bread with

defiled hands?

6And he said unto them, Well did Isaiah prophesy of you hypocrites, as it is written,

Isa. 29:13.

This people honoreth me with their lips,

But their heart is far from me.

7But in vain do they worship me,

Teaching as their doctrines the precepts of men.

8Ye leave the commandment of God, and hold fast the tradition of men.

9And he said unto them, Full well do ye reject the commandment of God, that ye may keep your tradition.

10For Moses said,

Honor thy father and thy mother; and, He that speaketh evil of father or mother, let him

11but ye say, If a man shall say to his father or his mother, That wherewith thou mightest have been profited by me is Corban, that is to say, Given to God;

12ye no longer suffer him to do aught for his father or his mother;

13making void the word of God by your tradition, which ye have delivered: and many such like things ye do.

14And he called to him the multitude again, and said unto them, Hear me all of you, and understand:

15there is nothing from without the man, that going into him can defile him; but the things which proceed out of the man are those that defile the man.

Many ancient authorities insert verse 16 If any man hath ears to hear, let him hear. See 4:9.

17And when he was entered into the house from the multitude, his disciples asked of him the parable.

18And he saith unto them, Are ye so without understanding also? Perceive ye not, that whatsoever from without goeth into the man, it cannot defile him;

19because it goeth not into his heart, but into his belly, and goeth out into the draught? This he said, making all meats clean.

20And he said, That which proceedeth out of the man, that defileth the man.

21For from within, out of the heart of men,

23all these evil things proceed from within, and defile the man.

and Sidon. And he entered into a house, and would have no man know it; and he could not be hid.

25But straightway a woman, whose little daughter had an unclean spirit, having heard of him, came and fell down at his feet.

26Now the woman was a

27And he said unto her, Let the children first be filled: for it is not meet to take the children’s

bread and cast it to the dogs.

28But she answered and saith unto him, Yea, Lord; even the dogs under the table eat of the children’s crumbs.

29And he said unto her, For this saying go thy way; the demon is gone out of thy daughter.

30And she went away unto her house, and found the child laid upon the bed, and the demon gone out.

31And again he went out from the borders of Tyre, and came through Sidon unto the sea of Galilee, through the midst of the borders of Decapolis.

32And they bring unto him one that was deaf, and had an impediment in his speech; and they beseech him to lay his hand upon him.

33And he took him aside from the multitude privately, and put his fingers into his ears, and he spat, and touched his tongue;

34and looking up to heaven, he sighed, and saith unto him, Ephphatha, that is, Be opened.

35And his ears were opened, and the bond of his tongue was loosed, and he spake plain.

36And he charged them that they should tell no man: but the more he charged them, so much the more a great deal they published it.

37And they were beyond measure astonished, saying, He hath done all things well; he maketh even the deaf to hear, and the dumb to speak.
