All hail the power of Jesus' name,
let angels prostrate fall.
| Matthew 15:5 | But you say, ‘Whoever says to his (tō | τῷ | dat sg masc) father or his (tē | τῇ | dat sg fem) mother, “Whatever benefit you might have received from me is a gift to God,” |
| Matthew 15:6 | he need not honor his father.’ So you have nullified the (ton | τόν | acc sg masc) word of (tou | τοῦ | gen sg masc) God for the sake of your tradition. |
| Matthew 15:8 | ‘This people honors me with their (tois | τοῖς | dat pl neut) lips, but their hearts are far from me. |
| Matthew 15:10 | And he called the (ton | τόν | acc sg masc) crowd to him and said to them, “Hear and understand: |
| Matthew 15:11 | It is not what (to | τό | nom sg neut) goes into the (to | τό | acc sg neut) mouth that defiles a (ton | τόν | acc sg masc) person, but what (to | τό | nom sg neut) comes out of the (tou | τοῦ | gen sg neut) mouth; this defiles a (ton | τόν | acc sg masc) person.” |
| Matthew 15:12 | Then the (hoi | οἱ | nom pl masc) disciples came and said to him, “Do you know that the (hoi | οἱ | nom pl masc) Pharisees were offended when they heard what (ton | τόν | acc sg masc) you said?” |
| Matthew 15:13 | And he (ho | ὁ | nom sg masc) answered, saying, “Every plant that my heavenly Father did not plant will be rooted up. |
| Matthew 15:15 | Then Peter answered him, saying, “Explain this parable to us.” |
| Matthew 15:16 | And he (ho | ὁ | nom sg masc) said, “Are you without understanding even now? |
| Matthew 15:17 | Do you not understand that everything that (to | τό | nom sg neut) goes into the (to | τό | acc sg neut) mouth passes through the (tēn | τήν | acc sg fem) stomach and is expelled into the latrine? |
| Matthew 15:18 | But the (ta | τά | nom pl neut) things that go out of the (tou | τοῦ | gen sg neut) mouth come from the (tēs | τῆς | gen sg fem) heart, and these defile the (ton | τόν | acc sg masc) person. |
| Matthew 15:19 | For out of the (tēs | τῆς | gen sg fem) heart come evil thoughts, murder, adultery, sexual immorality, theft, false witness, slander. |
| Matthew 15:20 | These are the (ta | τά | nom pl neut) things that defile a (ton | τόν | acc sg masc) person, but to eat with unwashed hands does not defile a (ton | τόν | acc sg masc) person.” |
| Matthew 15:21 | And leaving there, Jesus withdrew into the (ta | τά | acc pl neut) region of Tyre and Sidon. |
| Matthew 15:22 | And a Canaanite woman from that region came out and began to shout, saying, “Have mercy on me, O Lord, Son of David; my daughter is horribly demon-possessed.” |
| Matthew 15:23 | But he (ho | ὁ | nom sg masc) answered her not a word. And his disciples came and urged him, saying, “Send her away, because she keeps shouting after us.” |
| Matthew 15:24 | But he (ho | ὁ | nom sg masc) answered, saying, “I was not sent except to the (ta | τά | acc pl neut) lost sheep of the house of Israel.” |
| Matthew 15:25 | Then she (hē | ἡ | nom sg fem) came and knelt before him, saying, “Lord, help me!” |
| Matthew 15:26 | And he (ho | ὁ | nom sg masc) answered, “It is not right to take bread from the (tōn | τῶν | gen pl neut) children and toss it to the (tois | τοῖς | dat pl neut) dogs.” |
| Matthew 15:27 | “Yes, Lord,” she (hē | ἡ | nom sg fem) said, “but even the (ta | τά | nom pl neut) dogs eat the (tōn | τῶν | gen pl neut) crumbs that (tōn | τῶν | gen pl neut) fall from their masters’ table.” |
| Matthew 15:28 | Then Jesus answered, saying to her, “O woman, great is your faith! What you desire will be done for you.” And her daughter was healed at once. |
| Matthew 15:29 | After Jesus left from there, he passed by the (tēn | τήν | acc sg fem) Sea of (tēs | τῆς | gen sg fem) Galilee and went up on the (to | τό | acc sg neut) mountain where he sat down. |
| Matthew 15:30 | And great crowds came to him, bringing with them those who were lame, blind, crippled, mute, and many others; and they put them down at his feet and he healed them. |
| Matthew 15:31 | So the (ton | τόν | acc sg masc) crowd was astonished when they saw the mute speaking, the crippled restored, the lame walking, and the blind seeing, and they praised the (ton | τόν | acc sg masc) God of Israel. |
| Matthew 15:32 | Then Jesus called his disciples to him and said, “I have compassion on the (ton | τόν | acc sg masc) crowd because they have already been with me three days and have nothing to eat; and I do not want to send them away hungry, lest they faint from exhaustion on the (tē | τῇ | dat sg fem) way.” |
