15 There is nothing from without a man, entering into him, which can defile him: but things coming out from him, these are the things polluting the man. 16 If any have ears to hear, let him hear. 17 And when he came into the house from the crowd, his disciples asked him of the parable. 18 And he says, So are ye also without understanding? Do ye not perceive, that anything from without entering into a man, cannot pollute him. 19 For it goes not into the heart, but into the belly, and goes forth into the privy, purging all food. 20 And he said, That going out of a man, that pollutes a man. 21 For within, out of the heart of men, go forth evil reflections, adulteries, fornications, murders, 22 Thefts, overreaching, deceit, licentiousness, an evil eye, defamation, pride, foolishness: 23 All these evils go out from within, and pollute a man.
