Clementine Vulgate, 1598
1Then came to him from Jerusalem scribes and Pharisees, saying:
1Tunc accesserunt ad eum ab Jerosolymis scribæ et pharisæi, dicentes:
2Why do thy disciples transgress the tradition of the ancients? For they wash not their hands when they eat bread.
2Quare discipuli tui transgrediuntur traditionem seniorum? non enim lavant manus suas cum panem manducant.
3But he answering, said to them: Why do you also transgress the commandment of God for your tradition? For God said:
3Ipse autem respondens ait illis: Quare et vos transgredimini mandatum Dei propter traditionem vestram? Nam Deus dixit:
4Honour thy father and mother: And: He that shall curse father or mother, let him die the death.
4Honora patrem, et matrem: et, Qui maledixerit patri, vel matri, morte moriatur.
5But you say: Whosoever shall say to father or mother, The gift whatsoever proceedeth from me, shall profit thee.
5Vos autem dicitis: Quicumque dixerit patri, vel matri: Munus, quodcumque est ex me, tibi proderit:
6And he shall not honour his father or his mother: and you have made void the commandment of God for your tradition.
6et non honorificabit patrem suum, aut matrem suam: et irritum fecistis mandatum Dei propter traditionem vestram.
7Hypocrites, well hath Isaias prophesied of you, saying:
7Hypocritæ, bene prophetavit de vobis Isaias, dicens:
8This people honoureth me with their lips: but their heart is far from me.
8[Populus hic labiis me honorat: cor autem eorum longe est a me.
9And in vain do they worship me, teaching doctrines and commandments of men.
9Sine causa autem colunt me, docentes doctrinas et mandata hominum.]
10And having called together the multitudes unto him, he said to them: Hear ye and understand.
10Et convocatis ad se turbis, dixit eis: Audite, et intelligite.
11Not that which goeth into the mouth defileth a man: but what cometh out of the mouth, this defileth a man.
11Non quod intrat in os, coinquinat hominem: sed quod procedit ex ore, hoc coinquinat hominem.
12Then came his disciples, and said to him: Dost thou know that the Pharisees, when they heard this word, were scandalized?
12Tunc accedentes discipuli ejus, dixerunt ei: Scis quia pharisæi audito verbo hoc, scandalizati sunt?
13But he answering them, said: Every plant which my heavenly Father hath not planted, shall be rooted up.
13At ille respondens ait: Omnis plantatio, quam non plantavit Pater meus cælestis, eradicabitur.
14Let them alone: they are blind, and leaders of the blind. And if the blind lead the blind, both will fall into the pit.
14Sinite illos: cæci sunt, et duces cæcorum; cæcus autem si cæco ducatum præstet, ambo in foveam cadunt.
15And Peter answering, said to him: Expound to us this parable.
15Respondens autem Petrus dixit ei: Edissere nobis parabolam istam.
16But he said: Are you also yet without understanding?
16At ille dixit: Adhuc et vos sine intellectu estis?
17Do you not understand, that whatsoever entereth into the mouth, goeth into the belly, and is cast out into the privy?
17Non intelligitis quia omne quod in os intrat, in ventrem vadit, et in secessum emittitur?
18But the things which proceed out of the mouth, come forth from the heart, and those things defile a man.
18Quæ autem procedunt de ore, de corde exeunt, et ea coinquinant hominem:
19For from the heart come forth evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false testimonies, blasphemies.
19de corde enim exeunt cogitationes malæ, homicidia, adulteria, fornicationes, furta, falsa testimonia, blasphemiæ:
20These are the things that defile a man. But to eat with unwashed hands doth not defile a man.
20hæc sunt, quæ coinquinant hominem. Non lotis autem manibus manducare, non coinquinat hominem.
21And Jesus went from thence, and retired into the coasts of Tyre and Sidon.
21Et egressus inde Jesus secessit in partes Tyri et Sidonis.
22And 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.
22Et ecce mulier chananæa a finibus illis egressa clamavit, dicens ei: Miserere mei, Domine fili David: filia mea male a dæmonio vexatur.
23Who answered her not a word. And his disciples came and besought him, saying: Send her away, for she crieth after us:
23Qui non respondit ei verbum. Et accedentes discipuli ejus rogabant eum dicentes: Dimitte eam: quia clamat post nos.
24And he answering, said: I was not sent but to the sheep that are lost of the house of Israel.
24Ipse autem respondens ait: Non sum missus nisi ad oves, quæ perierunt domus Israël.
25But she came and adored him, saying: Lord, help me.
25At illa venit, et adoravit eum, dicens: Domine, adjuva me.
26Who answering, said: It is not good to take the bread of the children, and to cast it to the dogs.
26Qui respondens ait: Non est bonum sumere panem filiorum, et mittere canibus.
27But she said: Yea, Lord; for the whelps also eat of the crumbs that fall from the table of their masters.
27At illa dixit: Etiam Domine: nam et catelli edunt de micis quæ cadunt de mensa dominorum suorum.
28Then 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.
28Tunc respondens Jesus, ait illi: O mulier, magna est fides tua: fiat tibi sicut vis. Et sanata est filia ejus ex illa hora.
29And when Jesus had passed away from thence, he came nigh the sea of Galilee. And going up into a mountain, he sat there.
29Et cum transisset inde Jesus, venit secus mare Galilææ: et ascendens in montem, sedebat ibi.
30And there came to him great multitudes, having with them the dumb, the blind, the lame, the maimed, and many others: and they cast them down at his feet, and he healed them:
30Et accesserunt ad eum turbæ multæ, habentes secum mutos, cæcos, claudos, debiles, et alios multos: et projecerunt eos ad pedes ejus, et curavit eos,
31So that the multitudes marvelled seeing the dumb speak, the lame walk, and the blind see: and they glorified the God of Israel.
31ita ut turbæ mirarentur, videntes mutos loquentes, claudos ambulantes, cæcos videntes: et magnificabant Deum Israël.
32And Jesus called together his disciples, and said: I have compassion on the multitudes, because they continue with me now three days, and have not what to eat, and I will not send them away fasting, lest they faint in the way.
32Jesus autem, convocatis discipulis suis, dixit: Misereor turbæ, quia triduo jam perseverant mecum, et non habent quod manducent: et dimittere eos jejunos nolo, ne deficiant in via.
33And the disciples say unto him: Whence then should we have so many loaves in the desert, as to fill so great a multitude?
33Et dicunt ei discipuli: Unde ergo nobis in deserto panes tantos, ut saturemus turbam tantam?
34And Jesus said to them: How many loaves have you? But they said: Seven, and a few little fishes.
34Et ait illis Jesus: Quot habetis panes? At illi dixerunt: Septem, et paucos pisciculos.
35And he commanded the multitude to sit down upon the ground.
35Et præcepit turbæ ut discumberent super terram.
36And taking the seven loaves and the fishes, and giving thanks, he brake, and gave to his disciples, and the disciples to the people.
36Et accipiens septem panes, et pisces, et gratias agens, fregit, et dedit discipulis suis, et discipuli dederunt populo.
37And they did all eat, and had their fill. And they took up seven baskets full, of what remained of the fragments.
37Et comederunt omnes, et saturati sunt. Et quod superfuit de fragmentis, tulerunt septem sportas plenas.
38And they that did eat, were four thousand men, beside children and women.
38Erant autem qui manducaverunt quatuor millia hominum, extra parvulos et mulieres.
39And having dismissed the multitude, he went up into a boat, and came into the coasts of Magedan.
39Et, dimissa turba, ascendit in naviculam: et venit in fines Magedan.
