Božji zakon i ljudska pravila
(Mt 15,1-20)
7 Oko Isusa su se okupili farizeji i neki od učitelja Zakona koji su došli iz Jeruzalema. 2 Vidjeli su neke njegove učenike kako jedu prljavih, odnosno neopranih ruku. 3 Farizeji i svi ostali Židovi ne jedu prije nego što operu ruke do lakata; tako slijede predaje svojih predaka. 4 Kada dođu s tržnice, ne jedu ono što su kupili prije negoli se operu. Ima još mnogo toga što zbog tradicije drže, kao što je pranje šalica, vrčeva i bakrenih lonaca. 5 Stoga, farizeji i učitelji Zakona pitali su Isusa: »Zašto tvoji učenici ne slijede predaju predaka, nego jedu kruh neopranih ruku?«
6 A Isus im je rekao: »Izaija je točno prorekao o vama licemjerima:
‘Ovi ljudi slave me usnama,
ali srca su im daleko od mene.
7 Bezvrijedno je njihovo štovanje
jer su njihova učenja ljudska pravila.’[a]
8 Božje ste zapovijedi stavili na stranu i držite se ljudskih predaja.«
9 Isus im je rekao i ovo: »Vrlo vješto zanemarujete Božje zapovijedi kako biste uspostavili svoje predaje. 10 Na primjer, Mojsije je rekao: ‘Poštuj oca i majku’[b] i ‘Tko prokune svog oca ili majku, neka se kazni smrću.’[c] 11 No vi kažete da čovjek smije reći svom ocu ili majci: ‘Ne mogu vam dati ono što vam dugujem jer je to dar namijenjen Bogu.’ 12 Na taj mu način govorite da ne mora ništa učiniti za svoga oca ili majku. 13 Tako učite da je važnije slijediti pravila koja vi donosite nego činiti ono što je rekao Bog. A činite još i štošta drugo.«
14 Isus je ponovo pozvao ljude k sebi i rekao im: »Slušajte me svi i shvatite! 15 Ništa što izvana ulazi u čovjeka ne može ga onečistiti. Ono što izlazi iz njega—to je ono što ga onečišćuje.« 16 [d]
17 Zatim je Isus ostavio mnoštvo i ušao u kuću, a učenici su ga pitali o ovoj usporedbi. 18 Rekao im je: »Zar ni vi ne razumijete? Zar ne vidite da čovjeka ne može onečistiti ono što ulazi u njega izvana? 19 Hrana ne ide u srce, nego u želudac, a onda izlazi iz tijela.«
20 Isus je rekao: »Ono što izlazi iz čovjeka—to je ono što ga onečišćuje. 21 Jer, iznutra, iz ljudskoga srca, dolaze zle misli, seksualni razvrat, krađa i ubojstvo. 22 Iznutra dolazi preljub, pohlepa, zloba, prijevara, bestidnost, zavist, kleveta, oholost i nerazborito življenje. 23 Sva ta zla dolaze iz čovjekove nutrine i onečišćuju ga.«
Isus pomaže nežidovki
(Mt 15,21-28)
24 Isus je otišao iz toga mjesta i uputio se u okolicu Tira. Otišao je u jednu kuću jer nije želio da itko sazna da je ondje, ali nije mogao ostati nezapažen. 25 Neka žena, čija je kći bila opsjednuta zlim duhom, odmah je dočula da je Isus ondje. Došla je i bacila mu se pred noge. 26 Žena je bila Grkinja, rodom Sirofeničanka. Molila je Isusa da istjera zlog duha iz njezine kćeri.
27 Isus joj je rekao: »Prvo dopustite djeci da se dobro najedu, jer nije pravedno uzeti kruh djeci i baciti ga psima.«
28 No ona mu je odgovorila: »Gospodine, čak i psi ispod stola jedu mrvice koje ostanu djeci.«
29 Na to joj je Isus rekao: »Zbog tih riječi pođi kući u miru; zli je duh izašao iz tvoje kćeri.«
30 Ona je otišla kući i našla kćer kako leži u krevetu, a zao duh je već bio izašao iz nje.
Isus ozdravlja gluhoga
31 Isus je napustio okolicu Tira i otišao u Sidon. Putem do Galilejskog jezera prošao je područjem Dekapolisa. 32 Neki su mu ljudi doveli ondje čovjeka koji je bio gluh i jedva je mogao govoriti. Molili su Isusa da stavi ruku na njega.
33 Isus ga je odveo na stranu, dalje od ljudi. Stavio je svoje prste u njegove uši, a zatim pljunuo na prst i dotaknuo čovjekov jezik. 34 Pogledao je u nebo, duboko uzdahnuo i rekao mu: »Efata!«—što znači »Otvori se!« 35 Istoga se trena čovjeku vratio sluh, oslobodio mu se jezik i počeo je jasno govoriti.
36 Isus im je zabranio da o tome ikome govore, ali što im je on više naređivao da šute, to su oni više govorili. 37 Ljudi su bili potpuno zapanjeni i govorili: »Isus sve čini dobro. Čak vraća sluh gluhima i govor nijemima.«
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.”
