Markúsarguðspjall 7
Icelandic Bible
7 Nú safnast að honum farísear og nokkrir fræðimenn, komnir frá Jerúsalem.
2 Þeir sáu, að sumir lærisveina hans neyttu matar með vanhelgum, það er óþvegnum höndum.
3 En farísear, og reyndar Gyðingar allir, eta ekki nema þeir taki áður handlaugar, og fylgja þeir svo erfðavenju forfeðra sinna.
4 Og ekki neyta þeir matar, þegar þeir koma frá torgi, nema þeir hreinsi sig áður. Margt annað hafa þeir gengist undir að rækja, svo sem að hreinsa bikara, könnur og eirkatla.
5 Farísearnir og fræðimennirnir spyrja hann: "Hvers vegna fylgja lærisveinar þínir ekki erfðavenju forfeðranna, heldur neyta matar með vanhelgum höndum?"
6 Jesús svarar þeim: "Sannspár var Jesaja um yður hræsnara, þar sem ritað er: Þessi lýður heiðrar mig með vörunum, en hjarta þeirra er langt frá mér.
7 Til einskis dýrka þeir mig, er þeir kenna þá lærdóma, sem eru mannasetningar einar.
8 Þér hafnið boðum Guðs, en haldið erfikenning manna."
9 Enn sagði hann við þá: "Listavel gjörið þér að engu boð Guðs, svo þér getið rækt erfikenning yðar.
10 Móse sagði: ,Heiðra föður þinn og móður þína.` og ,Hver sem formælir föður eða móður, skal dauða deyja.`
11 En þér segið: Ef maður segir við föður sinn eða móður: ,Það, sem þér hefði getað orðið til styrktar frá mér, er korban,` það er musterisfé,
12 þá leyfið þér honum ekki framar að gjöra neitt fyrir föður sinn eða móður.
13 Þannig látið þér erfikenning yðar, sem þér fylgið fram, ógilda orð Guðs. Og margt annað gjörið þér þessu líkt."
14 Aftur kallaði hann til sín mannfjöldann og sagði: "Heyrið mig allir, og skiljið.
15 Ekkert er það utan mannsins, er saurgi hann, þótt inn í hann fari. Hitt saurgar manninn, sem út frá honum fer." [
16 Ef einhver hefur eyru að heyra, hann heyri!]
17 Þegar hann var kominn inn frá fólkinu, spurðu lærisveinar hans hann um líkinguna.
18 Og hann segir við þá: "Eruð þér einnig svo skilningslausir? Skiljið þér eigi, að ekkert, sem fer inn í manninn utan frá, getur saurgað hann?
19 Því að ekki fer það inn í hjarta hans, heldur maga og út síðan í safnþróna." Þannig lýsti hann alla fæðu hreina.
20 Og hann sagði: "Það sem fer út frá manninum, það saurgar manninn.
21 Því að innan frá, úr hjarta mannsins, koma hinar illu hugsanir, saurlifnaður, þjófnaður, manndráp,
22 hórdómur, ágirnd, illmennska, sviksemi, taumleysi, öfund, lastmælgi, hroki, heimska.
23 Allt þetta illa kemur innan að og saurgar manninn."
24 Hann tók sig upp þaðan og hélt til byggða Týrusar. Þar fór hann inn í hús og vildi engan láta vita. En eigi fékk hann dulist.
25 Kona ein frétti þegar af honum og kom og féll honum til fóta, en dóttir hennar hafði óhreinan anda.
26 Konan var heiðin, ættuð úr Fönikíu sýrlensku. Hún bað hann að reka illa andann út af dóttur sinni.
27 Hann sagði við hana: "Lofaðu börnunum að seðjast fyrst, ekki sæmir að taka brauð barnanna og kasta því fyrir hundana."
28 Hún svaraði honum: "Satt er það, herra, þó eta hundarnir undir borðinu af molum barnanna."
29 Og hann sagði við hana: "Vegna þessara orða skaltu heim snúa, illi andinn er farinn úr dóttur þinni."
30 Hún fór heim, fann barnið liggjandi á rúminu, og illi andinn var farinn.
31 Síðan hélt hann úr Týrusarbyggðum, um Sídon og yfir Dekapólisbyggðir miðjar til Galíleuvatns.
32 Þá færa þeir til hans mann, daufan og málhaltan, og biðja hann að leggja hönd sína yfir hann.
33 Jesús leiddi hann afsíðis frá fólkinu, stakk fingrum sínum í eyru honum og vætti tungu hans með munnvatni sínu.
34 Þá leit hann upp til himins, andvarpaði og sagði við hann: "Effaþa," það er: Opnist þú.
35 Og eyru hans opnuðust, og haft tungu hans losnaði, og hann talaði skýrt.
36 Jesús bannaði þeim að segja þetta neinum, en svo mjög sem hann bannaði þeim, því frekar sögðu þeir frá því.
37 Menn undruðust næsta mjög og sögðu: "Allt gjörir hann vel, daufa lætur hann heyra og mállausa mæla."

Mark 7
New International Version
That Which Defiles(A)
7 The Pharisees and some of the teachers of the law who had come from Jerusalem gathered around Jesus 2 and saw some of his disciples eating food with hands that were defiled,(B) that is, unwashed. 3 (The Pharisees and all the Jews do not eat unless they give their hands a ceremonial washing, holding to the tradition of the elders.(C) 4 When they come from the marketplace they do not eat unless they wash. And they observe many other traditions, such as the washing of cups, pitchers and kettles.[a])(D)
5 So the Pharisees and teachers of the law asked Jesus, “Why don’t your disciples live according to the tradition of the elders(E) instead of eating their food with defiled hands?”
6 He replied, “Isaiah was right when he prophesied about you hypocrites; as it is written:
“‘These people honor me with their lips,
but their hearts are far from me.
7 They worship me in vain;
their teachings are merely human rules.’[b](F)
8 You have let go of the commands of God and are holding on to human traditions.”(G)
9 And he continued, “You have a fine way of setting aside the commands of God in order to observe[c] your own traditions!(H) 10 For Moses said, ‘Honor your father and mother,’[d](I) and, ‘Anyone who curses their father or mother is to be put to death.’[e](J) 11 But you say(K) that if anyone declares that what might have been used to help their father or mother is Corban (that is, devoted to God)— 12 then you no longer let them do anything for their father or mother. 13 Thus you nullify the word of God(L) by your tradition(M) that you have handed down. And you do many things like that.”
14 Again Jesus called the crowd to him and said, “Listen to me, everyone, and understand this. 15 Nothing outside a person can defile them by going into them. Rather, it is what comes out of a person that defiles them.” [16] [f]
17 After he had left the crowd and entered the house, his disciples asked him(N) about this parable. 18 “Are you so dull?” he asked. “Don’t you see that nothing that enters a person from the outside can defile them? 19 For it doesn’t go into their heart but into their stomach, and then out of the body.” (In saying this, Jesus declared all foods(O) clean.)(P)
20 He went on: “What comes out of a person is what defiles them. 21 For it is from within, out of a person’s heart, that evil thoughts come—sexual immorality, theft, murder, 22 adultery, greed,(Q) malice, deceit, lewdness, envy, slander, arrogance and folly. 23 All these evils come from inside and defile a person.”
Jesus Honors a Syrophoenician Woman’s Faith(R)
24 Jesus left that place and went to the vicinity of Tyre.[g](S) He entered a house and did not want anyone to know it; yet he could not keep his presence secret. 25 In fact, as soon as she heard about him, a woman whose little daughter was possessed by an impure spirit(T) came and fell at his feet. 26 The woman was a Greek, born in Syrian Phoenicia. She begged Jesus to drive the demon out of her daughter.
27 “First let the children eat all they want,” he told her, “for it is not right to take the children’s bread and toss it to the dogs.”
28 “Lord,” she replied, “even the dogs under the table eat the children’s crumbs.”
29 Then he told her, “For such a reply, you may go; the demon has left your daughter.”
30 She went home and found her child lying on the bed, and the demon gone.
Jesus Heals a Deaf and Mute Man(U)
31 Then Jesus left the vicinity of Tyre(V) and went through Sidon, down to the Sea of Galilee(W) and into the region of the Decapolis.[h](X) 32 There some people brought to him a man who was deaf and could hardly talk,(Y) and they begged Jesus to place his hand on(Z) him.
33 After he took him aside, away from the crowd, Jesus put his fingers into the man’s ears. Then he spit(AA) and touched the man’s tongue. 34 He looked up to heaven(AB) and with a deep sigh(AC) said to him, “Ephphatha!” (which means “Be opened!”). 35 At this, the man’s ears were opened, his tongue was loosened and he began to speak plainly.(AD)
36 Jesus commanded them not to tell anyone.(AE) But the more he did so, the more they kept talking about it. 37 People were overwhelmed with amazement. “He has done everything well,” they said. “He even makes the deaf hear and the mute speak.”
