Mark 7:2

They had noticed that some of His disciples were eating their food with `unclean' (that is to say, unwashed) hands.

And when they saw some of his disciples eating bread with defiled (that is to say with unwashed) hands, they found fault.

And had seen that some of his disciples took their bread with unclean, that is, unwashed, hands.

Mark 7:3

(For the Pharisees and all the Jews being, as they are, zealous for the traditions of the Elders never eat without first carefully washing their hands,

For the Pharisees, and all the Jews, except they wash their hands often eat not, holding the tradition of the elders.

Now the Pharisees, and all the Jews, do not take food without washing their hands with care, keeping the old rule which has been handed down to them:

Mark 7:4

and when they come from market they will not eat without bathing first; and they have a good many other customs which they have received traditionally and cling to, such as the rinsing of cups and pots and of bronze utensils, and the washing of beds.)

And when they come from the market, except they wash, they eat not. And many other things there are, which they have received to hold, as the washing of cups, and pots, and of brazen vessels, and tables.

And when they come from the market-place, they take no food till their hands are washed; and a number of other orders there are, which have been handed down to them to keep washings of cups and pots and brass vessels.

Mark 7:5

So the Pharisees and Scribes put the question to Him: "Why do your disciples transgress the traditions of the Elders, and eat their food with unclean hands?"

Then the Pharisees and scribes asked him, Why walk not thy disciples according to the tradition of the elders, but eat bread with unwashed hands?

And the Pharisees and the scribes put the question to him, Why do your disciples not keep the rules of the fathers, but take their bread with unwashed hands?

Mark 7:6

"Rightly did Isaiah prophesy of you hypocrites," He replied; "as it is written, "`This People honour Me with their lips, while their hearts are far away from Me:

He answered and said to them, Well hath Isaiah prophesied concerning you hypocrites, as it is written, This people honoreth me with their lips, but their heart is far from me.

And he said, Well did Isaiah say of you, you false ones: These people give me honour with their lips, but their heart is far from me.

Mark 7:7

But idle is their devotion while they lay down precepts which are mere human rules.'

But, in vain do they worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men.

But their worship is to no purpose, while they give as their teaching the rules of men.

Mark 7:8

"You neglect God's Commandment: you hold fast to men's traditions."

For laying aside the commandment of God, ye hold the tradition of men, as the washing of pots and cups: and many other such like things ye do.

For, turning away from the law of God, you keep the rules of men.

Mark 7:9

"Praiseworthy indeed!" He added, "to set at nought God's Commandment in order to observe your own traditions!

And he said to them, Full well ye reject the commandment of God, that ye may keep your own tradition,

Mark 7:10

For Moses said, `Honour thy father and thy mother' and again, `He who curses father or mother, let him die the death.'

Mark 7:11

But *you* say, `If a man says to his father or mother, It is a Korban (that is, a thing devoted to God), whatever it is, which otherwise you would have received from me '

But ye say, If a man shall say to his father or mother, It is Corban, that is to say, a gift, by whatever thou mightest be profited by me; he shall be free.

But you say, If a man says to his father or his mother, That by which you might have had profit from me is Corban, that is to say, Given to God,

Mark 7:12

And so you no longer allow him to do anything for his father or mother,

And ye suffer him no more to do aught for his father or his mother;

You no longer let him do anything for his father or his mother;

Mark 7:13

thus nullifying God's precept by your tradition which you have handed down. And many things of that kind you do."

Making the word of God of no effect through your traditions, which ye have delivered: and many such like things ye do.

Making the word of God of no effect by your rule, which you have given: and a number of other such things you do.

Mark 7:14

Then Jesus called the people to Him again. "Listen to me, all of you," He said, "and understand.

And turning to the people again, he said to them, Give ear to me all of you, and let my words be clear to you:

Mark 7:15

There is nothing outside a man which entering him can make him unclean; but it is the things which come out of a man that make him unclean."

There is nothing from without a man, that entering into him, can defile him: but the things which come out of him, those are they that defile the man.

There is nothing outside the man which, going into him, is able to make him unclean: but the things which come out of the man are those which make the man unclean.

Mark 7:18

"Have *you* also so little understanding?" He replied; "do you not understand that anything whatever that enters a man from outside cannot make him unclean,

And he saith to them, Are ye so void of understanding also? Do ye not perceive, that whatever thing from without entereth into the man, it cannot defile him.

And he said to them, Have even you so little wisdom? Do you not see that whatever goes into a man from outside is not able to make him unclean,

Mark 7:19

because it does not go into his heart, but into his stomach, and passes away ejected from him?" By these words Jesus pronounced all kinds of food clean.
