St. Mark 7:19-35 Jubilee Bible (JUB)

19. Because it enters not into his heart, but into the belly, and the man goes out to the privy and purges all foods.

20. For he had said that it is what comes out of the man that defiles the man.

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

22. the thefts, the covetousness, the wickedness, the deceit, the lasciviousness, the evil eye, the slander, the pride, the unwiseness:

23. all these evil things come out from within and defile the man.

24. And from there he arose and went into the borders of Tyre and Sidon, and entering into a house, desired that no man know of it; but he could not be hid.

25. For a certain woman, whose young daughter had an unclean spirit, heard of him and came and fell at his feet;

26. the woman was a Greek, a Syrophenician by nation, and she besought him that he would cast forth the demon out of her daughter.

27. But Jesus said unto her, Let the children first be filled, for it is not good to take the children’s bread and to cast it unto the dogs.

28. And she answered and said unto him, Yes, Lord, but even the dogs under the table eat of the children’s crumbs.

29. And he said unto her, For this word go; the demon has gone out of thy daughter.

30. And when she came to her house, she found that the demon had gone out, and the daughter lay upon the bed.

31. And again, departing from the coasts of Tyre, he came by Sidon unto the sea of Galilee through the midst of the borders of Decapolis.

32. And they bring unto him one that was deaf and had an impediment in his speech, and they beseech him to put his hand upon him.

33. And taking him aside from the multitude, he put his fingers into the man’s ears; and spitting, he touched the man’s tongue with the saliva;

34. and looking up to heaven, he cried out, and said, Ephphatha, that is, Be opened.

35. And straightway his ears were opened, and that which bound his tongue was loosed, and he spoke plainly.
