ܡܬܝ 15
| ܗܝܕܝܢ ܩܪܒܘ ܠܘܬ ܝܫܘܥ ܦܪܝܫܐ ܘܤܦܪܐ ܕܡܢ ܐܘܪܫܠܡ ܘܐܡܪܝܢ | 1 |
Then the scribes and Pharisees from Jerusalem came to Jesus and said,
| ܠܡܢܐ ܬܠܡܝܕܝܟ ܥܒܪܝܢ ܥܠ ܡܫܠܡܢܘܬܐ ܕܩܫܝܫܐ ܘܠܐ ܡܫܝܓܝܢ ܐܝܕܝܗܘܢ ܡܐ ܕܐܟܠܝܢ ܠܚܡܐ | 2 |
“Why do yoʋr disciples break the tradition of the elders? For they do not wash their hands when they eat bread.”
| ܥܢܐ ܝܫܘܥ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܠܡܢܐ ܐܦ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܥܒܪܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܥܠ ܦܘܩܕܢܐ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܡܛܠ ܡܫܠܡܢܘܬܟܘܢ | 3 |
He answered them, “And why do you break the commandment of God for the sake of your tradition?
| ܐܠܗܐ ܓܝܪ ܐܡܪ ܝܩܪ ܠܐܒܘܟ ܘܠܐܡܟ ܘܡܢ ܕܡܨܚܐ ܠܐܒܘܗܝ ܘܠܐܡܗ ܡܡܬ ܢܡܘܬ | 4 |
For God commanded, ‘Honor yoʋr father and yoʋr mother,’ and, ‘Whoever speaks evil of his father or mother must surely die.’
| ܐܢܬܘܢ ܕܝܢ ܐܡܪܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܟܠ ܡܢ ܕܢܐܡܪ ܠܐܒܐ ܐܘ ܠܐܡܐ ܩܘܪܒܢܝ ܡܕܡ ܕܬܬܗܢܐ ܡܢܝ ܘܠܐ ܢܝܩܪ ܠܐܒܘܗܝ ܐܘ ܠܐܡܗ | 5 |
But you say, ‘If anyone says to his father or mother, “Whatever benefit yoʋ might have received from me is a gift to God,” then he certainly need not honor his father or his mother.’
| ܘܒܛܠܬܘܢ ܡܠܬܐ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܡܛܠ ܡܫܠܡܢܘܬܐ ܕܝܠܟܘܢ | 6 |
You have nullified the commandment of God for the sake of your tradition.
| ܢܤܒܝ ܒܐܦܐ ܫܦܝܪ ܐܬܢܒܝ ܥܠܝܟܘܢ ܐܫܥܝܐ ܘܐܡܪ | 7 |
Hypocrites! Isaiah prophesied rightly about you when he said,
| ܥܡܐ ܗܢܐ ܒܤܦܘܬܗ ܗܘ ܡܝܩܪ ܠܝ ܠܒܗܘܢ ܕܝܢ ܤܓܝ ܪܚܝܩ ܡܢܝ | 8 |
‘This people draws near to me with their mouth and honors me with their lips, but their heart is far from me.
| ܘܤܪܝܩܐܝܬ ܕܚܠܝܢ ܠܝ ܟܕ ܡܠܦܝܢ ܝܘܠܦܢܐ ܕܦܘܩܕܢܐ ܕܒܢܝܢܫܐ | 9 |
They worship me in vain, teaching as doctrines the commandments of men.’”
| ܘܩܪܐ ܠܟܢܫܐ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܫܡܥܘ ܘܐܤܬܟܠܘ | 10 |
Then Jesus called the crowd over and said to them, “Listen and understand:
| ܠܐ ܗܘܐ ܡܕܡ ܕܥܐܠ ܠܦܘܡܐ ܡܤܝܒ ܠܒܪܢܫܐ ܐܠܐ ܡܕܡ ܕܢܦܩ ܡܢ ܦܘܡܐ ܗܘ ܗܘ ܡܤܝܒ ܠܒܪܢܫܐ | 11 |
It is not what goes into the mouth that defiles a person; it is what comes out of the mouth that defiles a person.”
| ܗܝܕܝܢ ܩܪܒܘ ܬܠܡܝܕܘܗܝ ܘܐܡܪܝܢ ܠܗ ܝܕܥ ܐܢܬ ܕܦܪܝܫܐ ܕܫܡܥܘ ܡܠܬܐ ܗܕܐ ܐܬܟܫܠܘ | 12 |
Then his disciples came and said to him, “Do yoʋ know that the Pharisees were offended when they heard this statement?”
| ܗܘ ܕܝܢ ܥܢܐ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܟܠ ܢܨܒܬܐ ܐܝܕܐ ܕܠܐ ܢܨܒܗ ܐܒܝ ܕܒܫܡܝܐ ܬܬܥܩܪ | 13 |
Jesus answered, “Every plant that my heavenly Father has not planted will be uprooted.
| ܫܒܘܩܘ ܠܗܘܢ ܤܡܝܐ ܐܢܘܢ ܢܓܘܕܐ ܕܤܡܝܐ ܤܡܝܐ ܕܝܢ ܠܤܡܝܐ ܐܢ ܢܕܒܪ ܬܪܝܗܘܢ ܒܓܘܡܨܐ ܢܦܠܝܢ | 14 |
Leave them be; they are blind guides of the blind. And if one blind person guides another, both will fall into a pit.”
| ܘܥܢܐ ܫܡܥܘܢ ܟܐܦܐ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܡܪܝ ܦܫܩ ܠܢ ܡܬܠܐ ܗܢܐ | 15 |
Then Peter said to him in response, “Explain this parable to us.”
| ܗܘ ܕܝܢ ܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܥܕܡܐ ܠܗܫܐ ܐܦ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܠܐ ܡܤܬܟܠܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ | 16 |
Jesus said, “Are you also still without understanding?
| ܠܐ ܝܕܥܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܕܡܕܡ ܕܥܐܠ ܠܦܘܡܐ ܠܟܪܤܐ ܗܘ ܐܙܠ ܘܡܢ ܬܡܢ ܒܬܕܟܝܬܐ ܡܫܬܕܐ ܠܒܪ | 17 |
Do you not yet understand that everything that goes into the mouth passes into the stomach and is expelled into the latrine?
| ܡܕܡ ܕܝܢ ܕܡܢ ܦܘܡܐ ܢܦܩ ܡܢ ܠܒܐ ܢܦܩ ܘܗܘܝܘ ܡܤܝܒ ܠܗ ܠܒܪܢܫܐ | 18 |
But the things that come out of the mouth come from the heart, and these defile a person.
| ܡܢ ܠܒܐ ܗܘ ܓܝܪ ܢܦܩܢ ܡܚܫܒܬܐ ܒܝܫܬܐ ܓܘܪܐ ܩܛܠܐ ܙܢܝܘܬܐ ܓܢܒܘܬܐ ܤܗܕܘܬ ܫܘܩܪܐ ܓܘܕܦܐ | 19 |
For from the heart come evil thoughts, murder, adultery, fornication, theft, false testimony, and slander.
| ܗܠܝܢ ܐܢܝܢ ܕܡܤܝܒܢ ܠܒܪܢܫܐ ܐܢ ܐܢܫ ܕܝܢ ܢܠܥܤ ܟܕ ܠܐ ܡܫܓܢ ܐܝܕܘܗܝ ܠܐ ܡܤܬܝܒ | 20 |
These are what defile a person, but to eat with unwashed hands does not defile a person.”
| ܘܢܦܩ ܡܢ ܬܡܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܘܐܬܐ ܠܬܚܘܡܐ ܕܨܘܪ ܘܕܨܝܕܢ | 21 |
Then Jesus went away from there and withdrew to the district of Tyre and Sidon.
| ܘܗܐ ܐܢܬܬܐ ܟܢܥܢܝܬܐ ܡܢ ܬܚܘܡܐ ܗܢܘܢ ܢܦܩܬ ܟܕ ܩܥܝܐ ܘܐܡܪܐ ܐܬܪܚܡ ܥܠܝ ܡܪܝ ܒܪܗ ܕܕܘܝܕ ܒܪܬܝ ܒܝܫܐܝܬ ܡܬܕܒܪܐ ܡܢ ܫܐܕܐ | 22 |
And behold, a Canaanite woman from that region came and cried out to him, “Have mercy on me, Lord, Son of David! My daughter is severely demon-possessed.”
| ܗܘ ܕܝܢ ܠܐ ܦܢܝܗ ܦܬܓܡܐ ܘܩܪܒܘ ܬܠܡܝܕܘܗܝ ܒܥܘ ܡܢܗ ܘܐܡܪܝܢ ܫܪܝܗ ܕܩܥܝܐ ܒܬܪܢ | 23 |
But he did not respond to her at all. So his disciples came to him and urged him, “Send her away, for she is crying out after us.”
| ܗܘ ܕܝܢ ܥܢܐ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܠܐ ܐܫܬܕܪܬ ܐܠܐ ܠܘܬ ܥܪܒܐ ܕܛܥܘ ܡܢ ܒܝܬ ܐܝܤܪܝܠ | 24 |
In response Jesus said, “I was sent only to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.”
| ܗܝ ܕܝܢ ܐܬܬ ܤܓܕܬ ܠܗ ܘܐܡܪܬ ܡܪܝ ܥܕܪܝܢܝ | 25 |
But she came and bowed down before him, saying, “Lord, help me.”
| ܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܠܐ ܫܦܝܪ ܠܡܤܒ ܠܚܡܐ ܕܒܢܝܐ ܘܠܡܪܡܝܘ ܠܟܠܒܐ | 26 |
He replied, “It is not good to take the children's bread and throw it to the dogs.”
| ܗܝ ܕܝܢ ܐܡܪܬ ܐܝܢ ܡܪܝ ܐܦ ܟܠܒܐ ܐܟܠܝܢ ܡܢ ܦܪܬܘܬܐ ܕܢܦܠܝܢ ܡܢ ܦܬܘܪܐ ܕܡܪܝܗܘܢ ܘܚܐܝܢ | 27 |
She said, “Yes, Lord, yet even the dogs eat the crumbs that fall from the table of their masters.”
| ܗܝܕܝܢ ܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܝܫܘܥ ܐܘ ܐܢܬܬܐ ܪܒܐ ܗܝ ܗܝܡܢܘܬܟܝ ܢܗܘܐ ܠܟܝ ܐܝܟ ܕܨܒܝܐ ܐܢܬܝ ܘܐܬܐܤܝܬ ܒܪܬܗ ܡܢ ܗܝ ܫܥܬܐ | 28 |
Then Jesus answered her, “O woman, great is yoʋr faith; it will be done for yoʋ as yoʋ wish.” And her daughter was healed from that hour.
| ܘܫܢܝ ܡܢ ܬܡܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܘܐܬܐ ܥܠ ܓܢܒ ܝܡܐ ܕܓܠܝܠܐ ܘܤܠܩ ܠܛܘܪܐ ܘܝܬܒ ܬܡܢ | 29 |
Departing from there, Jesus went along the Sea of Galilee. Then he went up on the mountain and sat down.
| ܘܩܪܒܘ ܠܘܬܗ ܟܢܫܐ ܤܓܝܐܐ ܕܐܝܬ ܗܘܘ ܥܡܗܘܢ ܚܓܝܪܐ ܘܤܡܝܐ ܘܚܪܫܐ ܘܦܫܝܓܐ ܘܐܚܪܢܐ ܤܓܝܐܐ ܘܐܪܡܝܘ ܐܢܘܢ ܠܘܬ ܪܓܠܘܗܝ ܕܝܫܘܥ ܘܐܤܝ ܐܢܘܢ | 30 |
Large crowds came to him, having with them the lame, blind, mute, crippled, and many others. They put them at the feet of Jesus, and he healed them.
| ܐܝܟ ܕܢܬܕܡܪܘܢ ܟܢܫܐ ܗܢܘܢ ܕܚܙܝܢ ܚܪܫܐ ܕܡܡܠܠܝܢ ܘܦܫܝܓܐ ܕܡܬܚܠܡܝܢ ܘܚܓܝܪܐ ܕܡܗܠܟܝܢ ܘܤܡܝܐ ܕܚܙܝܢ ܘܫܒܚܘ ܠܐܠܗܐ ܕܝܤܪܝܠ | 31 |
So the crowds were amazed when they saw the mute speaking, the crippled made well, the lame walking, and the blind seeing. And they glorified the God of Israel.
| ܗܘ ܕܝܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܩܪܐ ܠܬܠܡܝܕܘܗܝ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܡܬܪܚܡ ܐܢܐ ܥܠ ܟܢܫܐ ܗܢܐ ܕܗܐ ܬܠܬܐ ܝܘܡܝܢ ܩܘܝܘ ܠܘܬܝ ܘܠܝܬ ܠܗܘܢ ܡܐ ܕܢܐܟܠܘܢ ܘܕܐܫܪܐ ܐܢܘܢ ܟܕ ܨܝܡܝܢ ܠܐ ܨܒܐ ܐܢܐ ܕܠܡܐ ܢܥܘܦܘܢ ܒܐܘܪܚܐ | 32 |
Then Jesus called his disciples over and said, “I have compassion on the crowd because they have stayed with me now for three days and have nothing to eat. I do not want to send them away without having eaten, lest they faint on the way.”
| ܐܡܪܝܢ ܠܗ ܬܠܡܝܕܘܗܝ ܐܝܡܟܐ ܠܢ ܒܚܘܪܒܐ ܠܚܡܐ ܕܢܤܒܥ ܟܢܫܐ ܗܢܐ ܟܠܗ | 33 |
His disciples said to him, “Where can we get so many loaves in such a desolate place to fill such a large crowd?”
| ܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܟܡܐ ܠܚܡܝܢ ܐܝܬ ܠܟܘܢ ܐܡܪܝܢ ܠܗ ܫܒܥܐ ܘܩܠܝܠ ܢܘܢܐ ܕܩܕܩܐ | 34 |
Jesus said to them, “How many loaves do you have?” They said, “Seven, and a few small fish.”
| ܘܦܩܕ ܠܟܢܫܐ ܕܢܤܬܡܟܘܢ ܥܠ ܐܪܥܐ | 35 |
So he commanded the crowds to sit down on the ground,
| ܘܫܩܠ ܠܗܠܝܢ ܫܒܥܐ ܠܚܡܝܢ ܘܠܢܘܢܐ ܘܫܒܚ ܘܩܨܐ ܘܝܗܒ ܠܬܠܡܝܕܘܗܝ ܘܬܠܡܝܕܐ ܝܗܒܘ ܠܟܢܫܐ | 36 |
and taking the seven loaves and the fish, he gave thanks, broke them, and gave them to his disciples, and the disciples gave them to the crowd.
| ܘܐܟܠܘ ܟܠܗܘܢ ܘܤܒܥܘ ܘܫܩܠܘ ܬܘܬܪܐ ܕܩܨܝܐ ܡܠܐ ܫܒܥܐ ܐܤܦܪܝܕܝܢ | 37 |
They all ate and were filled, and the disciples picked up what was left over of the broken pieces, seven baskets full.
| ܗܢܘܢ ܕܝܢ ܕܐܟܠܘ ܗܘܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܐܪܒܥܐ ܐܠܦܝܢ ܓܒܪܐ ܤܛܪ ܡܢ ܢܫܐ ܘܛܠܝܐ | 38 |
Besides women and children, there were four thousand men who had eaten.
| ܘܟܕ ܫܪܐ ܠܟܢܫܐ ܤܠܩ ܠܐܠܦܐ ܘܐܬܐ ܠܬܚܘܡܐ ܕܡܓܕܘ | 39 |
After sending the crowds away, Jesus got into the boat and went to the region of Magdala.
