¹واجتمع اليه الفريسيون وقوم من الكتبة قادمين من اورشليم.

¹And the Pharisees and some of the scribes, coming from Jerusalem, are gathered together to him,

²ولما رأوا بعضا من تلاميذه يأكلون خبزا بايد دنسة اي غير مغسولة لاموا.

²and seeing some of his disciples eat bread with defiled, that is, unwashed, hands,

³لان الفريسيين وكل اليهود ان لم يغسلوا ايديهم باعتناء لا يأكلون. متمسكين بتقليد الشيوخ.

³(for the Pharisees and all the Jews, unless they wash their hands diligently, do not eat, holding what has been delivered by the ancients;

⁴ومن السوق ان لم يغتسلوا لا يأكلون. واشياء اخرى كثيرة تسلموها للتمسك بها من غسل كؤوس واباريق وآنية نحاس واسرّة.

⁴and [on coming] from the market-place, unless they are washed, they do not eat; and there are many other things which they have received to hold, the washing of cups and vessels, and brazen utensils, and couches),

⁵ثم سأله الفريسيون والكتبة لماذا لا يسلك تلاميذك حسب تقليد الشيوخ بل يأكلون خبزا بأيد غير مغسولة.

⁵then the Pharisees and the scribes ask him, Why do thy disciples not walk according to what has been delivered by the ancients, but eat the bread with defiled hands?

⁶فاجاب وقال لهم حسنا تنبأ اشعياء عنكم انتم المرائين كما هو مكتوب. هذا الشعب يكرمني بشفتيه واما قلبه فمبتعد عني بعيدا.

⁶But he answering said to them, Well did Esaias prophesy concerning you hypocrites, as it is written, This people honour me with their lips, but their heart is far away from me.

⁷وباطلا يعبدونني وهم يعلمون تعاليم هي وصايا الناس.

⁷But in vain do they worship me, teaching [as their] teachings commandments of men.

⁸لانكم تركتم وصية الله وتتمسكون بتقليد الناس. غسل الاباريق والكؤوس وامورا أخر كثيرة مثل هذه تفعلون.

⁸[For], leaving the commandment of God, ye hold what is delivered by men [to keep] -- washings of vessels and cups, and many other such like things ye do.

⁹ثم قال لهم حسنا رفضتم وصية الله لتحفظوا تقليدكم.

⁹And he said to them, Well do ye set aside the commandment of God, that ye may observe what is delivered by yourselves [to keep].

¹⁰لان موسى قال اكرم اباك وامك. ومن يشتم ابا او اما فليمت موتا.

¹⁰For Moses said, Honour thy father and thy mother; and, he who speaks ill of father or mother, let him surely die.

¹¹واما انتم فتقولون ان قال انسان لابيه او امه قربان اي هدية هو الذي تنتفع به مني.

¹¹But *ye* say, If a man say to his father or his mother, [It is] corban (that is, gift), whatsoever thou mightest have profit from me by ...

¹²فلا تدعونه في ما بعد يفعل شيئا لابيه او امه.

¹²And ye no longer suffer him to do anything for his father or his mother;

¹³مبطلين كلام الله بتقليدكم الذي سلمتموه. وأمورا كثيرة مثل هذه تفعلون

¹³making void the word of God by your traditional teaching which ye have delivered; and many such like things ye do.

¹⁴ثم دعا كل الجمع وقال لهم اسمعوا مني كلكم وافهموا.

¹⁴And having called again the crowd, he said to them, Hear me, all [of you], and understand:

¹⁵ليس شيء من خارج الانسان اذا دخل فيه يقدر ان ينجسه. لكن الاشياء التي تخرج منه هي التي تنجس الانسان.

¹⁵There is nothing from outside a man entering into him which can defile him; but the things which go out from him, those it is which defile the man.

¹⁶ان كان لاحد اذنان للسمع فليسمع.

¹⁶If any one have ears to hear, let him hear.

¹⁷ولما دخل من عند الجمع الى البيت سأله تلاميذه عن المثل.

¹⁷And when he went indoors from the crowd, his disciples asked him concerning the parable.

¹⁸فقال لهم أفانتم ايضا هكذا غير فاهمين. أما تفهمون ان كل ما يدخل الانسان من خارج لا يقدر ان ينجسه.

¹⁸And he says to them, Are *ye* also thus unintelligent? Do ye not perceive that all that is outside entering into the man cannot defile him,

¹⁹لانه لا يدخل الى قلبه بل الى الجوف ثم يخرج الى الخلاء وذلك يطهر كل الاطعمة.

¹⁹because it does not enter into his heart but into his belly, and goes out into the draught, purging all meats?

²⁰ثم قال ان الذي يخرج من الانسان ذلك ينجس الانسان.

²⁰And he said, That which goes forth out of the man, that defiles the man.

²¹لانه من الداخل من قلوب الناس تخرج الافكار الشريرة زنى فسق قتل

²¹For from within, out of the heart of men, go forth evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders,

²²سرقة طمع خبث مكر عهارة عين شريرة تجديف كبرياء جهل.

²²thefts, covetousness, wickednesses, deceit, licentiousness, a wicked eye, injurious language, haughtiness, folly;

²³جميع هذه الشرور تخرج من الداخل وتنجس الانسان

²³all these wicked things go forth from within and defile the man.

²⁴ثم قام من هناك ومضى الى تخوم صور وصيدا. ودخل بيتا وهو يريد ان لا يعلم احد. فلم يقدر ان يختفي.

²⁴And he rose up and went away thence into the borders of Tyre and Sidon; and having entered into a house he would not have any one know [it], and he could not be hid.

²⁵لان امرأة كان بابنتها روح نجس سمعت به فأتت وخرّت عند قدميه.

²⁵But immediately a woman, whose little daughter had an unclean spirit, having heard of him, came and fell at his feet

²⁶وكانت المرأة اممية وفي جنسها فينيقية سورية. فسألته ان يخرج الشيطان من ابنتها.

²⁶(and the woman was a Greek, Syrophenician by race), and asked him that he would cast the demon out of her daughter.

²⁷واما يسوع فقال لها دعي البنين اولا يشبعون. لانه ليس حسنا ان يؤخذ خبز البنين ويطرح للكلاب.

²⁷But [Jesus] said to her, Suffer the children to be first filled; for it is not right to take the children's bread and cast it to the dogs.

²⁸فاجابت وقالت له نعم يا سيد. والكلاب ايضا تحت المائدة تأكل من فتات البنين.

²⁸But she answered and says to him, Yea, Lord; for even the dogs under the table eat of the children's crumbs.

²⁹فقال لها. لاجل هذه الكلمة اذهبي. قد خرج الشيطان من ابنتك.

²⁹And he said to her, Because of this word, go thy way, the demon is gone out of thy daughter.

³⁰فذهبت الى بيتها ووجدت الشيطان قد خرج والابنة مطروحة على الفراش

³⁰And having gone away to her house she found the demon gone out, and her daughter lying on the bed.

³¹ثم خرج ايضا من تخوم صور وصيدا وجاء الى بحر الجليل في وسط حدود المدن العشر.

³¹And again having left the borders of Tyre and Sidon, he came to the sea of Galilee, through the midst of the coasts of Decapolis.

³²وجاءوا اليه بأصم أعقد وطلبوا اليه ان يضع يده عليه.

³²And they bring to him a deaf [man] who could not speak right, and they beseech him that he might lay his hand on him.

³³فأخذه من بين الجمع على ناحية ووضع اصابعه في اذنيه وتفل ولمس لسانه.

³³And having taken him away from the crowd apart, he put his fingers to his ears; and having spit, he touched his tongue;

³⁴ورفع نظره نحو السماء وأنّ وقال له إفّثا. اي انفتح.

³⁴and looking up to heaven he groaned, and says to him, Ephphatha, that is, Be opened.

³⁵وللوقت انفتحت اذناه وانحل رباط لسانه وتكلم مستقيما.

³⁵And immediately his ears were opened, and the band of his tongue was loosed and he spoke right.

³⁶فاوصاهم ان لا يقولوا لاحد. ولكن على قدر ما اوصاهم كانوا ينادون اكثر كثيرا.

³⁶And he charged them that they should speak to no one [of it]. But so much the more *he* charged them, so much the more abundantly *they* proclaimed it;

³⁷وبهتوا الى الغاية قائلين انه عمل كل شيء حسنا. جعل الصم يسمعون والخرس يتكلمون

³⁷and they were astonished above measure, saying, He does all things well; he makes both the deaf to hear, and the speechless to speak.
