EWE
Gbe ɖeka la, Farisitɔwo kple Agbalẽfiala aɖewo tso Yerusalem va Yesu gbɔ.
BSB
BSB:
Then the Pharisees and some of the scribes who had come from Jerusalem gathered around Jesus,
2
EWE
Ame siawo de dzesii be Yesu ƒe nusrɔ̃la aɖewo meklɔa asi le Yudatɔwo ƒe kɔnu nu hafi ɖua nu o.
BSB
BSB:
and they saw some of His disciples eating with hands that were defiled—that is, unwashed.
3
EWE
(Elabena Yudatɔwo, vevietɔ Farisitɔwo ɖe woklɔa asi kple abɔ va se ɖe abɔkugluinu ke abe ale si wo tɔgbuiwo wɔnɛ hafi ɖua nu ene.
BSB
BSB:
Now in holding to the tradition of the elders, the Pharisees and all the Jews do not eat until they wash their hands ceremonially.
4
EWE
Ne wotso asi me gbɔ la, ele be woawɔ kɔnu sia godoo hafi ade asi nuɖuɖu ŋu. Esia nye se siwo dzi wowɔna pɛpɛpɛ ƒe alafa nanewo la ƒe kpɔɖeŋu ɖeka. Kɔnu bubu si me wogalé ɖe asi lae nye nuɖazewo, ganuwo kple gagbawo kɔklɔ.)
BSB
BSB:
And on returning from the market, they do not eat unless they wash. And there are many other traditions for them to observe, including the washing of cups, pitchers, kettles, and couches for dining.
5
EWE
Ale Farisitɔwo kple agbalẽfiala siawo va bia Yesu be, “Nu ka ta wò nusrɔ̃lawo megawɔa míaƒe blemakɔnu o ɖo? Womeklɔa asi ɖe kɔnua nu hafi ɖua nu o.”
BSB
BSB:
So the Pharisees and scribes questioned Jesus: “Why do Your disciples not walk according to the tradition of the elders? Instead, they eat with defiled hands.”
6
EWE
Yesu ɖo eŋu na wo be, “Nyateƒe ŋutɔe Yesaya to esi wògblɔ nya ɖi tso mi alakpatɔ siawo ŋuti; abe ale si woŋlɔe ɖi ene be, “ ‘Ame siawo le kafuyem kple woƒe nuyiwo, ke woƒe dzi te ɖa xaa tso gbɔnye.
BSB
BSB:
Jesus answered them,
“Isaiah prophesied correctly about you hypocrites, as it is written: ‘These people honor Me with their lips, but their hearts are far from Me.
7
EWE
Woƒe subɔsubɔ nye dzodzro, elabena woƒe nufiafiawo nye amewo ƒe sededewo ko.’
BSB
BSB:
They worship Me in vain; they teach as doctrine the precepts of men.’
8
EWE
Elabena miegbe nu le Mawu ƒe ɖoɖo vavãwo gbɔ hewɔa mia ŋutɔwo ƒe kɔnyinyiwo dzi.
BSB
BSB:
You have disregarded the commandment of God to keep the tradition of men.”
9
EWE
Ɖe mieɖoe koŋ le nu gbem le Mawu ƒe sewo gbɔ, eye mietu afɔ wo dzi le miawo ŋutɔ ƒe kɔnyinyiwo ta.
BSB
BSB:
He went on to say,
“You neatly set aside the command of God to maintain your own tradition.
10
EWE
“Le kpɔɖeŋu me, Mose de se si tso Mawu gbɔ la na mi be, ‘Bu fofowò kple dawò.’ Egblɔ kpe ɖe eŋu be, ‘Ame si agblɔ nya vlo ɖe fofoa alo dadaa ŋu la dze na ku,’
BSB
BSB:
For Moses said, ‘Honor your father and your mother’ and ‘Anyone who curses his father or mother must be put to death.’
11
EWE
gake miawo la, miegblɔ be ame ate ŋu agblɔ na fofoa alo dadaa si hiã nane la be, nu si wòle be matsɔ na wò la nye kɔban (esi gɔmee nye, metsɔe na Mawu).
BSB
BSB:
But you say that if a man says to his father or mother, ‘Whatever you would have received from me is Corban’ (that is, a gift devoted to God),
12
EWE
Mieɖea mɔ nɛ be wòawɔ nu si dze be wòawɔ la na fofoa alo dadaa o.
BSB
BSB:
he is no longer permitted to do anything for his father or mother.
13
EWE
Ale miegbe Mawu ƒe nya, eye miewɔna ɖe miaƒe kɔnyinyi, siwo mieɖo anyi la dzi. Miaƒe wɔna geɖewo le alea.”
BSB
BSB:
Thus you nullify the word of God by the tradition you have handed down. And you do so in many such matters.”
14
EWE
Azɔ Yesu yɔ ameha la be woava ɖo to ye. Egblɔ na wo be, “Mi katã miɖo to nyuie, ne miase nya siawo gɔme.
BSB
BSB:
Once again Jesus called the crowd to Him and said,
“All of you, listen to Me and understand:
15
EWE
Naneke meli si tsoa gota gena ɖe ame me, si ate ŋu aƒo ɖi amea o, ke boŋ nu siwo doa go tso amea me la, woawoe nye nu siwo ƒoa ɖii. [
BSB
BSB:
Nothing that enters a man from the outside can defile him; but the things that come out of a man, these are what defile him.”
16
EWE
Ame si to senu li na la nesee.]”
BSB
BSB:
Not in the BSB
Not in the earliest manuscripts
17
EWE
Azɔ Yesu ge ɖe aƒe aɖe me be yeadzo le ameha la gbɔ vie. Eƒe nusrɔ̃lawo va biae le afi sia be wòaɖe lo si wòdo la gɔme na yewo.
BSB
BSB:
After Jesus had left the crowd and gone into the house, His disciples inquired about the parable.
18
EWE
Yesu bia wo be, “Ekema miawo hã miese nya siawo gɔme oa? Miate ŋu ade dzesii be nu siwo mieɖuna la megblẽa nu le mia ŋu o?
BSB
BSB:
“Are you still so dull?”
He asked.
“Do you not understand? Nothing that enters a man from the outside can defile him,
19
EWE
Ne ame ɖu nu la, meyina eƒe dzi me o, ke boŋ etoa eƒe dɔkaviwo me hezua nugodo.” (Egblɔ nya sia be yeafia be nuɖuɖu ɖe sia ɖe ŋuti kɔ.)
BSB
BSB:
because it does not enter his heart, but it goes into the stomach and then is eliminated.”
(Thus all foods are clean.)
20
EWE
Egagblɔ be, “Nya vlo doa go tso egblɔla ƒe dzi me, eye wòƒoa ɖi ame,
BSB
BSB:
He continued:
“What comes out of a man, that is what defiles him.
21
EWE
elabena ame ƒe dzi mee susu baɖa doa go tsona. Nu baɖawo abe, fieŋuifieŋui alo matrewɔwɔ, fififi, amewuwu, ahasiwɔwɔ
BSB
BSB:
For from within the hearts of men come evil thoughts, sexual immorality, theft, murder, adultery,
22
EWE
ŋubiabiã, ŋutasesẽ, amebeble, makɔmakɔnyenye, ŋuʋaʋã, ameŋugbegblẽ, dada kple movinuwɔna bubuwo.
BSB
BSB:
greed, wickedness, deceit, debauchery, envy, slander, arrogance, and foolishness.
23
EWE
Nu vɔ̃ɖi siawo katã doa go tso miaƒe dziwo me, eye woawoe nye nu siwo ƒoa ɖi mi ale be miedze be miado ɖe Mawu ŋkume o.”
BSB
BSB:
All these evils come from within, and these are what defile a man.”
24
EWE
Yesu dzo le Galilea heyi Tiro kple Sidon nutowo me. Edze agbagba be yeaɣla ye ɖokui ɖe aƒe aɖe me, gake mete ŋui o. Mekpɔ ɖo hafi eƒe vava ɖi hoo abe ale si wònɔna ɖaa ene o.
BSB
BSB:
Jesus left that place and went to the region of Tyre. Not wanting anyone to know He was there, He entered a house, but was unable to escape their notice.
25
EWE
Nyɔnu aɖe si ƒe vi gbɔgbɔ vɔ̃ nɔ fu ɖem na la va egbɔ enumake. Nyɔnu sia se Yesu ŋkɔ, eva dze klo ɖe eƒe afɔ nu
BSB
BSB:
Instead, a woman whose little daughter had an unclean spirit soon heard about Jesus, and she came and fell at His feet.
26
EWE
heɖe kuku nɛ be wòanya gbɔgbɔ vɔ̃ la do goe le ye vi la me. Nyɔnu la nye Sirofoiniketɔ.
BSB
BSB:
Now she was a Greek woman of Syrophoenician origin, and she kept asking Jesus to drive the demon out of her daughter.
27
EWE
Yesu gblɔ nɛ be, “Ele be ɖeviwo naɖi ƒo gbã; gawu la, menyo be woatsɔ ɖeviwo ƒe nuɖuɖu ana avuwo o.”
BSB
BSB:
“First let the children have their fill,”
He said.
“For it is not right to take the children’s bread and toss it to the dogs.”
28
EWE
Nyɔnu la ɖo eŋu nɛ be, “Aƒetɔ, esia nye nyateƒe, gake wotsɔa ɖeviwo ƒe nuɖuɖu wuwlui si susɔ la naa avuvi siwo le kplɔ̃ te.”
BSB
BSB:
“Yes, Lord,” she replied, “even the dogs under the table eat the children’s crumbs.”
29
EWE
Yesu gblɔ nɛ be, “Le nya sia ta la, heyi, gbɔgbɔ vɔ̃ la do go le viwò nyɔnuvi la me.”
BSB
BSB:
Then Jesus told her,
“Because of this answer, you may go. The demon has left your daughter.”
30
EWE
Esi nyɔnu sia va ɖo aƒe me la, ekpɔ via nyɔnuvi la wòmlɔ anyi ɖe aba dzi kpoo, elabena gbɔgbɔ vɔ̃ la do go le eme.
BSB
BSB:
And she went home and found her child lying on the bed, and the demon was gone.
31

Azɔ Yesu tso Tiro yi Sidon to Dekapoli alo Du Ewoawo me gatrɔ yi Galilea ƒua nu.
BSB
BSB:
Then Jesus left the region of Tyre and went through Sidon to the Sea of Galilee and into the region of the Decapolis.
32

Wokplɔ tokunɔ aɖe si menya nuƒoƒo nyuie o la vɛ nɛ, eye amewo ɖe kuku nɛ be wòayɔ dɔe.
BSB
BSB:
Some people brought to Him a man who was deaf and hardly able to speak, and they begged Jesus to place His hand on him.
33
EWE
Yesu kplɔ tokunɔ la dzoe le ameawo dome yi adzɔge, eye wòƒo eƒe asibidɛwo ɖe eƒe towo me. Azɔ eɖe ta hesi ɖe eƒe aɖe dzi.
BSB
BSB:
So Jesus took him aside privately, away from the crowd, and put His fingers into the man’s ears. Then He spit and touched the man’s tongue.

EWE
Ewu mo dzi kpɔ dziƒo, eye wògbɔ fũu heɖe gbe be, “Hefata!” (si gɔmee nye “Ʋu!”).
BSB
BSB:
And looking up to heaven, He sighed deeply and said to him,
“Ephphatha!”
(which means,
“Be opened!”).
