11. Not that which goeth into the mouth defileth a man: but what cometh out of the mouth, this defileth a man.
12. Then came his disciples, and said to him: Dost thou know that the Pharisees, when they heard this word, were scandalized?
13. But he answering them, said: Every plant which my heavenly Father hath not planted, shall be rooted up.
14. Let them alone: they are blind, and leaders of the blind. And if the blind lead the blind, both will fall into the pit.
15. And Peter answering, said to him: Expound to us this parable.
16. But he said: Are you also yet without understanding?
17. Do you not understand, that whatsoever entereth into the mouth, goeth into the belly, and is cast out into the privy?
18. But the things which proceed out of the mouth, come forth from the heart, and those things defile a man.
19. For from the heart come forth evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false testimonies, blasphemies.
20. These are the things that defile a man. But to eat with unwashed hands doth not defile a man.
21. And Jesus went from thence, and retired into the coasts of Tyre and Sidon.
22. And behold a woman of Canaan who came out of those coasts, crying out, said to him: Have mercy on me, O Lord, thou son of David: my daughter is grieviously troubled by the devil.
23. Who answered her not a word. And his disciples came and besought him, saying: Send her away, for she crieth after us:
24. And he answering, said: I was not sent but to the sheep that are lost of the house of Israel.
25. But she came and adored him, saying: Lord, help me.
26. Who answering, said: It is not good to take the bread of the children, and to cast it to the dogs.
27. But she said: Yea, Lord; for the whelps also eat of the crumbs that fall from the table of their masters.
28. Then Jesus answering, said to her: O woman, great is thy faith: be it done to thee as thou wilt: and her daughter was cured from that hour.
