1 Тогда̀ пристꙋпи́ша ко і҆и҃сови и҆̀же ѿ і҆ерⷭ҇ли́ма кни́жницы и҆ фарїсе́є, глаго́люще:
1 Then Pharisees and scribes came to Jesus from Jerusalem, saying,
2 почто̀ ᲂу҆чн҃цы̀ твоѝ престꙋпа́ютъ преда́нїе ста́рєцъ; не ᲂу҆мыва́ютъ бо рꙋ́къ свои́хъ, є҆гда̀ хлѣ́бъ ꙗ҆дѧ́тъ.
2 “Why do your disciples disobey the tradition of the elders? For they don’t wash their hands when they eat bread.”
3 Ѻ҆́нъ же ѿвѣща́въ речѐ и҆̀мъ: почто̀ и҆ вы̀ престꙋпа́ете за́повѣдь бж҃їю за преда́нїе ва́ше;
3 He answered them, “Why do you also disobey the commandment of God because of your tradition?
4 Бг҃ъ бо заповѣ́да, гл҃ѧ: чтѝ ѻ҆тца̀ и҆ ма́терь: и҆: и҆́же ѕлосло́витъ ѻ҆тца̀ и҆лѝ ма́терь, сме́ртїю да ᲂу҆́мретъ.
4 For God commanded, ‘Honor your father and your mother,’ and, ‘He who speaks evil of father or mother, let him be put to death.’
5 Вы́ же глаго́лете: и҆́же а҆́ще рече́тъ ѻ҆тцꙋ̀ и҆лѝ ма́тери: да́ръ, и҆́мже бы ѿ менє̀ по́льзовалсѧ є҆сѝ:
5 But you say, ‘Whoever may tell his father or his mother, “Whatever help you might otherwise have gotten from me is a gift devoted to God,”
6 и҆ да не почти́тъ ѻ҆тца̀ своегѡ̀ и҆лѝ ма́тере: и҆ разори́сте за́повѣдь бж҃їю за преда́нїе ва́ше.
6 he shall not honor his father or mother.’ You have made the commandment of God void because of your tradition.
7 Лицемѣ́ри, до́брѣ прⷪ҇ро́чествова ѡ҆ ва́съ и҆са́їа, глаго́лѧ:
7 You hypocrites! Well did Isaiah prophesy of you, saying,
8 приближа́ютсѧ мнѣ̀ лю́дїе сі́и ᲂу҆сты̑ свои́ми и҆ ᲂу҆стна́ми чтꙋ́тъ мѧ̀: се́рдце же и҆́хъ дале́че ѿстои́тъ ѿ менє̀:
8 ‘These people draw near to me with their mouth, and honor me with their lips; but their heart is far from me.
9 всꙋ́е же чтꙋ́тъ мѧ̀, ᲂу҆ча́ще ᲂу҆че́нїємъ, за́повѣдемъ человѣ́чєскимъ.
9 And they worship me in vain, teaching as doctrine rules made by men.’”
10 И҆ призва́въ наро́ды, речѐ и҆̀мъ: слы́шите и҆ разꙋмѣ́йте:
10 He summoned the multitude, and said to them, “Hear, and understand.
11 не входѧ́щее во ᲂу҆ста̀ скверни́тъ человѣ́ка: но и҆сходѧ́щее и҆зо ᲂу҆́стъ, то̀ скверни́тъ человѣ́ка.
11 That which enters into the mouth doesn’t defile the man; but that which proceeds out of the mouth, this defiles the man.”
12 Тогда̀ пристꙋ́пльше ᲂу҆чн҃цы̀ є҆гѡ̀ рѣ́ша є҆мꙋ̀: вѣ́си ли, ꙗ҆́кѡ фарїсе́є слы́шавше сло́во соблазни́шасѧ;
12 Then the disciples came and said to him, “Do you know that the Pharisees were offended when they heard this saying?”
13 Ѻ҆́нъ же ѿвѣща́въ речѐ: всѧ́къ са́дъ, є҆го́же не насадѝ ѻ҆ц҃ъ мо́й нбⷭ҇ный, и҆скорени́тсѧ:
13 But he answered, “Every plant which my heavenly Father didn’t plant will be uprooted.
14 ѡ҆ста́вите и҆̀хъ: вожди̑ сꙋ́ть слѣ́пи слѣпцє́мъ: слѣпе́цъ же слѣпца̀ а҆́ще во́дитъ, ѻ҆́ба въ ꙗ҆́мꙋ впаде́тасѧ.
14 Leave them alone. They are blind guides of the blind. If the blind guide the blind, both will fall into a pit.”
15 Ѿвѣща́въ же пе́тръ речѐ є҆мꙋ̀: скажѝ на́мъ при́тчꙋ сїю̀.
15 Peter answered him, “Explain the parable to us.”
16 І҆и҃съ же речѐ (и҆̀мъ): є҆дина́че ли и҆ вы̀ без̾ ра́зꙋма є҆стѐ;
16 So Jesus said, “Do you also still not understand?
17 не ᲂу҆̀ ли разꙋмѣва́ете, ꙗ҆́кѡ всѧ́ко, є҆́же вхо́дитъ во ᲂу҆ста̀, во чре́во вмѣща́етсѧ и҆ а҆федрѡ́номъ и҆схо́дитъ;
17 Don’t you understand that whatever goes into the mouth passes into the belly and then out of the body?
18 и҆сходѧ̑щаѧ же и҆зо ᲂу҆́стъ, ѿ се́рдца и҆схо́дѧтъ, и҆ та̑ сквернѧ́тъ человѣ́ка:
18 But the things which proceed out of the mouth come out of the heart, and they defile the man.
19 ѿ се́рдца бо и҆схо́дѧтъ помышлє́нїѧ ѕла̑ѧ, ᲂу҆бі̑йства, прелюбодѣѧ̑нїѧ, любодѣѧ̑нїѧ, татьбы̑, лжесвидѣ́тєльства, хꙋлы̑:
19 For out of the heart come evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, sexual sins, thefts, false testimony, and blasphemies.
20 сїѧ̑ сꙋ́ть сквернѧ̑щаѧ человѣ́ка: а҆ є҆́же неꙋмове́нныма рꙋка́ма ꙗ҆́сти, не скверни́тъ человѣ́ка.
20 These are the things which defile the man; but to eat with unwashed hands doesn’t defile the man.”
21 И҆ и҆зше́дъ ѿтꙋ́дꙋ і҆и҃съ, ѿи́де во страны̑ тѵ̑рскїѧ и҆ сїдѡ̑нскїѧ.
21 Jesus went out from there and withdrew into the region of Tyre and Sidon.
22 И҆ сѐ, жена̀ ханане́йска, ѿ предѣ̑лъ тѣ́хъ и҆зше́дши, возопѝ къ немꙋ̀ глаго́лющи: поми́лꙋй мѧ̀, гдⷭ҇и, сн҃е дв҃довъ, дщѝ моѧ̀ ѕлѣ̀ бѣснꙋ́етсѧ.
22 Behold, a Canaanite woman came out from those borders and cried, saying, “Have mercy on me, Lord, you son of David! My daughter is severely possessed by a demon!”
23 Ѻ҆́нъ же не ѿвѣща̀ є҆́й словесѐ. И҆ пристꙋ́пльше ᲂу҆чн҃цы̀ є҆гѡ̀, молѧ́хꙋ є҆го̀, глаго́люще: ѿпꙋстѝ ю҆̀, ꙗ҆́кѡ вопїе́тъ в̾слѣ́дъ на́съ.
23 But he answered her not a word. His disciples came and begged him, saying, “Send her away; for she cries after us.”
24 Ѻ҆́нъ же ѿвѣща́въ речѐ: нѣ́смь по́сланъ, то́кмѡ ко ѻ҆вца́мъ поги́бшымъ до́мꙋ і҆и҃лева.
24 But he answered, “I wasn’t sent to anyone but the lost sheep of the house of Israel.”
25 Ѻ҆на́ же прише́дши поклони́сѧ є҆мꙋ̀, глаго́лющи: гдⷭ҇и, помози́ ми.
25 But she came and worshiped him, saying, “Lord, help me.”
26 Ѻ҆́нъ же ѿвѣща́въ речѐ: нѣ́сть добро̀ ѿѧ́ти хлѣ́ба ча́дѡмъ и҆ поврещѝ псѡ́мъ.
26 But he answered, “It is not appropriate to take the children’s bread and throw it to the dogs.”
27 Ѻ҆на́ же речѐ: є҆́й, гдⷭ҇и: и҆́бо и҆ псѝ ꙗ҆дѧ́тъ ѿ крꙋпи́цъ па́дающихъ ѿ трапе́зы господе́й свои́хъ.
27 But she said, “Yes, Lord, but even the dogs eat the crumbs which fall from their masters’ table.”
28 Тогда̀ ѿвѣща́въ і҆и҃съ речѐ є҆́й: ѽ, же́но, ве́лїѧ вѣ́ра твоѧ̀: бꙋ́ди тебѣ̀ ꙗ҆́коже хо́щеши. И҆ и҆сцѣлѣ̀ дщѝ є҆ѧ̀ ѿ тогѡ̀ часа̀.
28 Then Jesus answered her, “Woman, great is your faith! Be it done to you even as you desire.” And her daughter was healed from that hour.
29 И҆ преше́дъ ѿтꙋ́дꙋ і҆и҃съ, прїи́де на мо́ре галїле́йское, и҆ возше́дъ на горꙋ̀, сѣ́де тꙋ̀.
29 Jesus departed from there and came near to the sea of Galilee; and he went up on the mountain and sat there.
30 И҆ пристꙋпи́ша къ немꙋ̀ наро́ди мно́зи, и҆мꙋ́ще съ собо́ю хрѡмы́ѧ, слѣпы̑ѧ, нѣмы̑ѧ, бѣ̑дныѧ и҆ и҆́ны мнѡ́ги, и҆ приверго́ша и҆̀хъ къ нога́ма і҆и҃совыма: и҆ и҆сцѣлѝ и҆̀хъ:
30 Great multitudes came to him, having with them the lame, blind, mute, maimed, and many others, and they put them down at his feet. He healed them,
31 ꙗ҆́коже наро́дѡмъ диви́тисѧ, ви́дѧщымъ нѣмы̑ѧ глаго́лющѧ, бѣ̑дныѧ здра̑вы, хрѡмы́ѧ ходѧ́щѧ и҆ слѣпы̑ѧ ви́дѧщѧ: и҆ сла́влѧхꙋ бг҃а і҆и҃лева.
31 so that the multitude wondered when they saw the mute speaking, the injured healed, the lame walking, and the blind seeing—and they glorified the God of Israel.
32 І҆и҃съ же призва́въ ᲂу҆чн҃кѝ своѧ̑, речѐ (и҆̀мъ): млⷭ҇рдꙋю ѡ҆ наро́дѣ (се́мъ), ꙗ҆́кѡ ᲂу҆жѐ дни̑ трѝ присѣдѧ́тъ мнѣ̀ и҆ не и҆́мꙋтъ чесѡ̀ ꙗ҆́сти: и҆ ѿпꙋсти́ти и҆̀хъ не ꙗ҆́дшихъ не хощꙋ̀, да не ка́кѡ ѡ҆слабѣ́ютъ на пꙋтѝ.
32 Jesus summoned his disciples and said, “I have compassion on the multitude, because they have continued with me now three days and have nothing to eat. I don’t want to send them away fasting, or they might faint on the way.”
33 И҆ глаго́лаша є҆мꙋ̀ ᲂу҆чн҃цы̀ є҆гѡ̀: ѿкꙋ́дꙋ на́мъ въ пꙋсты́ни хлѣ́би толи́цы, ꙗ҆́кѡ да насы́титсѧ толи́къ наро́дъ;
33 The disciples said to him, “Where could we get so many loaves in a deserted place as to satisfy so great a multitude?”
34 И҆ гл҃а и҆̀мъ і҆и҃съ: коли́кѡ хлѣ́бы и҆́мате; Ѻ҆ни́ же рѣ́ша: се́дмь, и҆ ма́лѡ ры́бицъ.
34 Jesus said to them, “How many loaves do you have?” They said, “Seven, and a few small fish.”
35 И҆ повелѣ̀ наро́дѡмъ возлещѝ на землѝ,
35 He commanded the multitude to sit down on the ground;
36 и҆ прїе́мь се́дмь хлѣ́бы и҆ ры̑бы, хвалꙋ̀ возда́въ преломѝ и҆ дадѐ ᲂу҆чн҃кѡ́мъ свои̑мъ, ᲂу҆чн҃цы́ же наро́дѡмъ.
36 and he took the seven loaves and the fish. He gave thanks and broke them, and gave to the disciples, and the disciples to the multitudes.
37 И҆ ꙗ҆до́ша всѝ и҆ насы́тишасѧ: и҆ взѧ́ша и҆збы́тки ᲂу҆крꙋ̑хъ, се́дмь ко́шницъ и҆спо́лнь:
37 They all ate and were filled. They took up seven baskets full of the broken pieces that were left over.
38 ꙗ҆́дшихъ же бѧ́ше четы́ре ты́сѧщы мꙋже́й, ра́звѣ же́нъ и҆ дѣте́й.
38 Those who ate were four thousand men, in addition to women and children.
39 И҆ ѿпꙋсти́въ наро́ды, влѣ́зе въ кора́бль и҆ прїи́де въ предѣ́лы магдали̑нски.
39 Then he sent away the multitudes, got into the boat, and came into the borders of Magdala.

What the Fathers said

Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).

How these were chosen

“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).

  1. Commentary 15:21 Augustine of Hippo, Sermons on Selected Lessons of the New Testament (Sermon XXVII)

    This woman of Canaan, who has just now been brought before us in the lesson of the Gospel, shows us an example of humility, and the way of godliness; shows us how to rise from humility unto exaltation.

  2. Commentary 15:1 John Chrysostom, Homilies on the Gospel of Matthew (Homily LI)

    Then; when? when He had wrought His countless miracles; when He had healed the infirm by the touch of the hem of His garment. For even with this intent doth the evangelist mark the time, that He might signify their unspeakable wickedness, by nothing repressed.
