< Mark 7 >

1 And there came together to him the Pharisees, and some of the scribes, who had come from Jerusalem:
και συναγονται προσ αυτον οι φαρισαιοι και τινεσ των γραμματεων ελθοντεσ απο ιεροσολυμων
2 and when they saw some of his disciples eating bread with common, that is, with unwashed hands:
και ιδοντεσ τινασ των μαθητων αυτου κοιναισ χερσιν τουτ εστιν ανιπτοισ εσθιοντασ αρτουσ εμεμψαντο
3 (for the Pharisees and all the Jews eat not, unless they wash their hands carefully, because they hold the tradition of the elders:
οι γαρ φαρισαιοι και παντεσ οι ιουδαιοι εαν μη πυγμη νιψωνται τασ χειρασ ουκ εσθιουσιν κρατουντεσ την παραδοσιν των πρεσβυτερων
4 and when they come from the market, they do not eat, unless they immerse themselves. And there are many other things, which they have received to hold, as the immersion of cups and pitchers and brazen vessels and beds: )
και απο αγορασ εαν μη βαπτισωνται ουκ εσθιουσιν και αλλα πολλα εστιν α παρελαβον κρατειν βαπτισμουσ ποτηριων και ξεστων και χαλκιων και κλινων
5 then the Pharisees and the scribes asked him: Why do your disciples not walk according to the tradition of the elders, but eat bread with unwashed hands?
επειτα επερωτωσιν αυτον οι φαρισαιοι και οι γραμματεισ δια τι οι μαθηται σου ου περιπατουσιν κατα την παραδοσιν των πρεσβυτερων αλλα ανιπτοισ χερσιν εσθιουσιν τον αρτον
6 He answered and said to them: Well did Isaiah prophesy of you hypocrites, as it is written, This people honors me with their lips, but their heart is far from me.
ο δε αποκριθεισ ειπεν αυτοισ οτι καλωσ προεφητευσεν ησαιασ περι υμων των υποκριτων ωσ γεγραπται ουτοσ ο λαοσ τοισ χειλεσιν με τιμα η δε καρδια αυτων πορρω απεχει απ εμου
7 In vain do they worship me, teaching precepts, the commandments of men.
ματην δε σεβονται με διδασκοντεσ διδασκαλιασ ενταλματα ανθρωπων
8 For, neglecting the commandment of God, you hold the tradition of men, the immersion of pitchers and cups; and many other things like these you do.
αφεντεσ γαρ την εντολην του θεου κρατειτε την παραδοσιν των ανθρωπων βαπτισμουσ ξεστων και ποτηριων και αλλα παρομοια τοιαυτα πολλα ποιειτε
9 And he said to them: Well do you reject the commandment of God, that you may keep your own tradition.
και ελεγεν αυτοισ καλωσ αθετειτε την εντολην του θεου ινα την παραδοσιν υμων τηρησητε
10 For Moses said: Honor your father and your mother; and, He that curses father or mother shall surely be put to death.
μωσησ γαρ ειπεν τιμα τον πατερα σου και την μητερα σου και ο κακολογων πατερα η μητερα θανατω τελευτατω
11 But you say: If a man shall say to his father or mother, Whatever of mine might benefit you, is Corban, (which means, a gift, )
υμεισ δε λεγετε εαν ειπη ανθρωποσ τω πατρι η τη μητρι κορβαν ο εστιν δωρον ο εαν εξ εμου ωφεληθησ
12 you no longer suffer him to do any thing for his father or mother,
και ουκετι αφιετε αυτον ουδεν ποιησαι τω πατρι αυτου η τη μητρι αυτου
13 making the word of God of no effect by your tradition, which you have delivered; and many things like these you do.
ακυρουντεσ τον λογον του θεου τη παραδοσει υμων η παρεδωκατε και παρομοια τοιαυτα πολλα ποιειτε
14 And he called the whole multitude to him, and said to them: Hear me, all of you, and understand.
και προσκαλεσαμενοσ παντα τον οχλον ελεγεν αυτοισ ακουετε μου παντεσ και συνιετε
15 There is nothing without that, by entering into a man, can defile him. But those things which come out of the man, defile him.
ουδεν εστιν εξωθεν του ανθρωπου εισπορευομενον εισ αυτον ο δυναται αυτον κοινωσαι αλλα τα εκπορευομενα απ αυτου εκεινα εστιν τα κοινουντα τον ανθρωπον
16 If any one has ears to hear, let him hear.
ει τισ εχει ωτα ακουειν ακουετω
17 And when he had gone into the house, away from the multitude, his disciples asked him about the dark saying.
και οτε εισηλθεν εισ οικον απο του οχλου επηρωτων αυτον οι μαθηται αυτου περι τησ παραβολησ
18 And he said to them: Are you also so void of understanding? Do you not perceive that nothing from without, by entering into a man, can defile him?
και λεγει αυτοισ ουτωσ και υμεισ ασυνετοι εστε ου νοειτε οτι παν το εξωθεν εισπορευομενον εισ τον ανθρωπον ου δυναται αυτον κοινωσαι
19 Because it does not enter into his heart, but into his belly, and goes out into the sink, cleansing all food.
οτι ουκ εισπορευεται αυτου εισ την καρδιαν αλλ εισ την κοιλιαν και εισ τον αφεδρωνα εκπορευεται καθαριζον παντα τα βρωματα
20 And he said: What comes out of the man, is that which defiles the man.
ελεγεν δε οτι το εκ του ανθρωπου εκπορευομενον εκεινο κοινοι τον ανθρωπον
21 For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed the purposes which are evil: adulteries, lewd actions, murders,
εσωθεν γαρ εκ τησ καρδιασ των ανθρωπων οι διαλογισμοι οι κακοι εκπορευονται μοιχειαι πορνειαι φονοι
22 thefts, schemes for extortion, wicked deeds, deceit, wantonness, an evil eye, calumny, haughtiness, impiety.
κλοπαι πλεονεξιαι πονηριαι δολοσ ασελγεια οφθαλμοσ πονηροσ βλασφημια υπερηφανια αφροσυνη
23 All these evil things come forth from within, and defile the man.
παντα ταυτα τα πονηρα εσωθεν εκπορευεται και κοινοι τον ανθρωπον
24 And he arose and departed thence to the borders of Tyre and Sidon. And he entered a house, and desired that no one should know it; but he could not escape notice.
και εκειθεν αναστασ απηλθεν εισ τα μεθορια τυρου και σιδωνοσ και εισελθων εισ οικιαν ουδενα ηθελεν γνωναι και ουκ ηδυνηθη λαθειν
25 For a woman, whose little daughter had an unclean spirit, heard of him, and came and fell at his feet;
ακουσασα γαρ γυνη περι αυτου ησ ειχεν το θυγατριον αυτησ πνευμα ακαθαρτον ελθουσα προσεπεσεν προσ τουσ ποδασ αυτου
26 (the woman was a Greek, a Syrophenician by nation, ) and she besought him to cast the demon out of her daughter.
ην δε η γυνη ελληνισ συραφοινικισσα τω γενει και ηρωτα αυτον ινα το δαιμονιον εκβαλη εκ τησ θυγατροσ αυτησ
27 But Jesus said to her: Let the children be satisfied first; for it is not good to take the children’s bread and throw it to the little dogs.
ο δε ιησουσ ειπεν αυτη αφεσ πρωτον χορτασθηναι τα τεκνα ου γαρ καλον εστιν λαβειν τον αρτον των τεκνων και βαλειν τοισ κυναριοισ
28 She answered and said to him: Yes, Lord; and yet you can help me, for the little dogs under the table eat of the children’s crumbs.
η δε απεκριθη και λεγει αυτω ναι κυριε και γαρ τα κυναρια υποκατω τησ τραπεζησ εσθιει απο των ψιχιων των παιδιων
29 And he said to her: For this saying, go your way: the demon has gone out of your daughter.
και ειπεν αυτη δια τουτον τον λογον υπαγε εξεληλυθεν το δαιμονιον εκ τησ θυγατροσ σου
30 And she went to her house, and found the demon gone out, and her daughter lying upon the bed.
και απελθουσα εισ τον οικον αυτησ ευρεν το δαιμονιον εξεληλυθοσ και την θυγατερα βεβλημενην επι τησ κλινησ
31 And again he went out from the borders of Tyre and Sidon, and came to the sea of Galilee, through the midst of the borders of Decapolis.
και παλιν εξελθων εκ των οριων τυρου και σιδωνοσ ηλθεν προσ την θαλασσαν τησ γαλιλαιασ ανα μεσον των οριων δεκαπολεωσ
32 And they brought to him a deaf man, who spoke with difficulty; and they besought him to lay his hand upon him.
και φερουσιν αυτω κωφον μογγιλαλον και παρακαλουσιν αυτον ινα επιθη αυτω την χειρα
33 And he took him aside from the multitude, and put his fingers into his ears, and he spit, and touched his tongue;
και απολαβομενοσ αυτον απο του οχλου κατ ιδιαν εβαλεν τουσ δακτυλουσ αυτου εισ τα ωτα αυτου και πτυσασ ηψατο τησ γλωσσησ αυτου
34 and looking up to heaven, he sighed, and said to him: Ephphatha, which means, Be opened.
και αναβλεψασ εισ τον ουρανον εστεναξεν και λεγει αυτω εφφαθα ο εστιν διανοιχθητι
35 And immediately his ears were opened, and the band of his tongue was loosed, and he spoke plainly.
και ευθεωσ διηνοιχθησαν αυτου αι ακοαι και ελυθη ο δεσμοσ τησ γλωσσησ αυτου και ελαλει ορθωσ
36 And he charged them to tell no one; but the more he charged them, the more earnestly they published it.
και διεστειλατο αυτοισ ινα μηδενι ειπωσιν οσον δε αυτοσ αυτοισ διεστελλετο μαλλον περισσοτερον εκηρυσσον
37 And they were amazed beyond measure, and said: He Las done all things well: he makes the deaf hear and the dumb speak.
και υπερπερισσωσ εξεπλησσοντο λεγοντεσ καλωσ παντα πεποιηκεν και τουσ κωφουσ ποιει ακουειν και τουσ αλαλουσ λαλειν
