¹Then Pharisees and scribes came to Jesus from Jerusalem, saying,

¹Dia nankeo amin'i Jesosy ny Fariseo sy ny mpanora-dalàna sasany avy tany Jerosalema ka nanao hoe:

²“Why do your disciples disobey the tradition of the elders? For they don’t wash their hands when they eat bread.”

²Nahoana ny mpianatrao no mandika ny fampianarana voatolotry ny razana? Fa tsy mba manasa tanana izy, raha hihinan-kanina.

³He answered them, “Why do you also disobey the commandment of God because of your tradition?

³Ary Izy namaly ka nanao taminy hoe: Nahoana kosa ianareo no mandika ny didin'Andriamanitra noho ny fampianarana voatolotra anareo?

⁴ For God commanded, ‘Honor your father and your mother,’ Exodus 20:12; Deuteronomy 5:16 and, ‘He who speaks evil of father or mother, let him be put to death.’ Exodus 21:17; Leviticus 20:9

⁴Fa Andriamanitra efa nanao hoe: Manajà ny rainao sy ny reninao (Eks. 20. 12), ary koa: Izay miteny ratsy ny rainy na ny reniny dia hatao maty tokoa (Eks. 21. 17).

⁵ But you say, ‘Whoever may tell his father or his mother, “Whatever help you might otherwise have gotten from me is a gift devoted to God,”

⁵Fa hoy kosa ianareo: Na zovy na zovy no hilaza amin'ny rainy na ny reniny hoe: Efa fanatitra ho an'Andriamanitra izay rehetra tokony hahazoanao soa avy amiko, dia tsy mba hanaja ny rainy akory izy.

⁶ he shall not honor his father or mother.’ You have made the commandment of God void because of your tradition.

⁶Koa dia foananareo ny tenin'Andriamanitra noho ny fampianarana voatolotra anareo.

⁷ You hypocrites! Well did Isaiah prophesy of you, saying,

⁷Ry mpihatsaravelatsihy, marina ny naminanian'Isaia anareo hoe:

⁸ ‘These people draw near to me with their mouth, and honor me with their lips; but their heart is far from me.

⁸Ity firenena ity manaja Ahy amin'ny molony; Fa ny fony kosa lavitra Ahy.

⁹ And in vain do they worship me, teaching as doctrine rules made by men.’” Isaiah 29:13

⁹Koa foana ny ivavahan'ireo amiko, raha mampianatra ny didin'olombelona ho fampianarana izy (Isa. 29. 13).

¹⁰He summoned the multitude, and said to them, “Hear, and understand.

¹⁰Ary niantso ny vahoaka hankeo aminy Izy ka nanao taminy hoe: Mihainoa ka mahafantara:

¹¹ That which enters into the mouth doesn’t defile the man; but that which proceeds out of the mouth, this defiles the man.”

¹¹tsy izay miditra amin'ny vava no mahaloto ny olona; fa izay mivoaka avy amin'ny vava, izany no mahaloto ny olona.

¹²Then the disciples came, and said to him, “Do you know that the Pharisees were offended, when they heard this saying?”

¹²Dia nankeo aminy ny mpianatra ka nanao taminy hoe: Fantatrao va fa tafintohina ny Fariseo, raha nandre izany teny izany?

¹³But he answered, “Every plant which my heavenly Father didn’t plant will be uprooted.

¹³Ary Izy namaly ka nanao hoe: Ny zavatra rehetra izay tsy nambolen'ny Raiko Izay any an-danitra dia hongotana.

¹⁴ Leave them alone. They are blind guides of the blind. If the blind guide the blind, both will fall into a pit.”

¹⁴Avelao izy; mpitarika jamba izy; ary raha ny jamba no mitarika ny jamba, dia samy ho latsaka any an-kady izy roa.

¹⁵Peter answered him, “Explain the parable to us.”

¹⁵Ary Petera namaly ka nanao taminy hoe: Lazao aminay ny hevitr'izany fanoharana izany.

¹⁶So Jesus said, “Do you also still not understand?

¹⁶Ary hoy Jesosy: Hianareo koa va mbola tsy mahafantatra ihany?

¹⁷ Don’t you understand that whatever goes into the mouth passes into the belly, and then out of the body?

¹⁷Tsy fantatrareo va fa izay rehetra miditra amin'ny vava dia mankao an-kibo ka avoaka ao amin'ny fivoahana?

¹⁸ But the things which proceed out of the mouth come out of the heart, and they defile the man.

¹⁸Fa izay mivoaka avy amin'ny vava kosa dia avy amin'ny fo, ka izany no mahaloto ny olona.

¹⁹ For out of the heart come forth evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, sexual sins, thefts, false testimony, and blasphemies.

¹⁹Fa avy amin'ny fo no ivoahan'ny sain-dratsy, dia ny vonoan'olona, ny fakam-badin'olona, ny fijangajangana, ny halatra, ny ampanga lainga, ny fitenenan-dratsy;[Gr. blasfemia, izahao 9. 3]

²⁰ These are the things which defile the man; but to eat with unwashed hands doesn’t defile the man.”

²⁰izany no mahaloto ny olona; fa ny mihinana amin'ny tanana tsy misasa tsy mba mahaloto ny olona.

²¹Jesus went out from there, and withdrew into the region of Tyre and Sidon.

²¹Dia niala teo Jesosy ka nankany amin'ny fari-tanin'i Tyro sy Sidona.

²²Behold, a Canaanite woman came out from those borders, and cried, saying, “Have mercy on me, Lord, you son of David! My daughter is severely demonized!”

²²Ary, indro, nisy vehivavy Kananita anankiray nivoaka avy tamin'izany tany izany ka niantso nanao hoe: Mamindrà fo amiko, Tompoko, Zanak'i Davida ô! ny zanako-vavy ampahorin'ny demonia loatra.

²³But he answered her not a word. His disciples came and begged him, saying, “Send her away; for she cries after us.”

²³Fa Izy tsy namaly teny azy. dia nanatona ny mpianany ka nangataka taminy nanao hoe: Roahy izy, fa miantso mafy ato aoriantsika.

²⁴But he answered, “I wasn’t sent to anyone but the lost sheep of the house of Israel.”

²⁴Ary Izy namaly ka nanao hoe: Tsy nirahina Aho afa-tsy ho amin'ny ondry very amin'ny taranak'isiraely.

²⁵But she came and worshiped him, saying, “Lord, help me.”

²⁵Fa nanatona ihany ravehivavy, dia niankohoka teo anatrehany ka nanao hoe: Tompoko ô, vonjeo aho.

²⁶But he answered, “It is not appropriate to take the children’s bread and throw it to the dogs.”

²⁶Fa Izy namaly ka nanao hoe: Tsy mety raha maka ny mofon-jaza ka manipy azy ho an'ny amboakely.

²⁷But she said, “Yes, Lord, but even the dogs eat the crumbs which fall from their masters’ table.”

²⁷Fa hoy ravehivavy: Marina izany, Tompoko; fa na dia ny amboakely aza mba mihinana izay sombintsombiny latsaka avy amin'ny latabatry ny tompony ihany.

²⁸Then Jesus answered her, “Woman, great is your faith! Be it done to you even as you desire.” And her daughter was healed from that hour.

²⁸Dia namaly Jesosy ka nanao taminy hoe: Ravehivavy, lehibe ny finoanao; tongava aminao araka izay irinao. Dia sitrana ny zananivavy tamin'izay ora izay.

²⁹Jesus departed there, and came near to the sea of Galilee; and he went up into the mountain, and sat there.

²⁹Ary raha niala teo Jesosy, dia nankany amoron'ny Ranomasin'i Galilia Izy; ary niakatra nankeo an-tendrombohitra Izy ka nipetraka teo;

³⁰Great multitudes came to him, having with them the lame, blind, mute, maimed, and many others, and they put them down at his feet. He healed them,

³⁰ary nisy vahoaka betsaka nankeo aminy nitondra ny mandringa, ny jamba, ny moana, ny kilemaina, ary ny maro hafa koa, ka nametraka azy teo akaikin'ny tongotr'i Jesosy; dia nahasitrana azy Izy;

³¹so that the multitude wondered when they saw the mute speaking, injured whole, lame walking, and blind seeing—and they glorified the God of Israel.

³¹ka dia talanjona ny vahoaka, raha nahita ny moana miteny, ny kilemaina sitrana, ny mandringa afaka, ary ny jamba mahiratra; dia nankalaza an'Andriamanitry ny Isiraely izy.

³²Jesus summoned his disciples and said, “I have compassion on the multitude, because they continue with me now three days and have nothing to eat. I don’t want to send them away fasting, or they might faint on the way.”

³²Ary Jesosy niantso ny mpianany hankeo aminy ka nanao hoe: Mahonena Ahy ny vahoaka, fa efa nitoetra hateloana tatỳ amiko izy izao ka tsy manan-kohanina; ary tsy tiako ny hampody azy tsy mihinana, fandrao reraka eny an-dalana izy.

³³The disciples said to him, “Where should we get so many loaves in a deserted place as to satisfy so great a multitude?”

³³Fa hoy ny mpianatra taminy: Aiza no hahitanay mofo atỳ an-efitra ampy hahavoky izao vahoaka betsaka izao!

³⁴Jesus said to them, “How many loaves do you have?” They said, “Seven, and a few small fish.”

³⁴Ary hoy Jesosy taminy: Misy mofo firy any aminareo? Ary hoy izy: Fito sy hazandrano madinika vitsy foana.

³⁵He commanded the multitude to sit down on the ground;

³⁵Ary Izy nandidy ny vahoaka betsaka hipetraka amin'ny tany.

³⁶and he took the seven loaves and the fish. He gave thanks and broke them, and gave to the disciples, and the disciples to the multitudes.

³⁶Dia nandray ny mofo fito mbamin'ny hazandrano Izy, ary rehefa nisaotra, dia namaky ka nanolotra azy ho an'ny mpianatra, ary ny mpianatra kosa nanolotra ho an'ny vahoaka.

³⁷They all ate, and were filled. They took up seven baskets full of the broken pieces that were left over.

³⁷Ary nihinana avokoa izy rehetra, ka dia voky; ary nangoniny ny sombintsombiny sisa tsy lany, ka dia nahafeno sobiky fito.

³⁸Those who ate were four thousand men, besides women and children.

³⁸Ary izay nihinana dia efatra arivo lahy, afa-tsy ny zaza amim-behivavy.Ary nony efa nampody ny vahoaka Izy, dia niondrana an-tsambokely ka nankany amin'ny sisin-tanin'i Magadana.

³⁹Then he sent away the multitudes, got into the boat, and came into the borders of Magdala.

³⁹Ary nony efa nampody ny vahoaka Izy, dia niondrana an-tsambokely ka nankany amin'ny sisin-tanin'i Magadana.
