015:017 Do you not understand that whatever enters the mouth passes
into the stomach and is afterwards ejected from the body?
015:018 But the things that come out of the mouth proceed from the heart,
and it is these that defile the man.
015:019 For out of the heart proceed wicked thoughts, murder, adultery,
fornication, theft, perjury, impiety of speech.
015:020 These are the things which defile the man; but eating with
unwashed hands does not defile."
015:021 Leaving that place, Jesus withdrew into the vicinity of
Tyre and Sidon.
015:022 Here a Canaanitish woman of the district came out and persistently
cried out, "Sir, Son of David, pity me; my daughter is cruelly
harassed by a demon."
015:023 But He answered her not a word. Then the disciples interposed,
and begged Him, saying, "Send her away because she keeps
crying behind us."
015:024 "I have only been sent to the lost sheep of the house
of Israel," He replied.
015:025 Then she came and threw herself at His feet and entreated Him.
"O Sir, help me," she said.
015:026 "It is not right," He said, "to take the children's bread
and throw it to the dogs."
