1 Tunc accesserunt ad eum ab Jerosolymis scribæ et pharisæi, dicentes:
1 ENTONCES llegaron á Jesús ciertos escribas y Fariseos de Jerusalem, diciendo:
1 Then Pharisees and scribes came to Jesus from Jerusalem, saying,
2 Quare discipuli tui transgrediuntur traditionem seniorum? non enim lavant manus suas cum panem manducant.
2 ¿Por qué tus discípulos traspasan la tradición de los ancianos? porque no se lavan las manos cuando comen pan.
2 “Why do your disciples disobey the tradition of the elders? For they don’t wash their hands when they eat bread.”
3 Ipse autem respondens ait illis: Quare et vos transgredimini mandatum Dei propter traditionem vestram? Nam Deus dixit:
3 Y él respondiendo, les dijo: ¿Por qué también vosotros traspasáis el mandamiento de Dios por vuestra tradición?
3 He answered them, “Why do you also disobey the commandment of God because of your tradition?
4 Honora patrem, et matrem: et, Qui maledixerit patri, vel matri, morte moriatur.
4 Porque Dios mandó, diciendo: Honra al padre y á la madre, y, El que maldijere al padre ó á la madre, muera de muerte.
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 Vos autem dicitis: Quicumque dixerit patri, vel matri: Munus, quodcumque est ex me, tibi proderit:
5 Mas vosotros decís: Cualquiera que dijere al padre ó á la madre: [Es ya] ofrenda mía [á Dios] todo aquello con que pudiera valerte;
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 et non honorificabit patrem suum, aut matrem suam: et irritum fecistis mandatum Dei propter traditionem vestram.
6 No deberá honrar á su padre ó á su madre [con socorro]. Así habéis invalidado el mandamiento de Dios por vuestra tradición.
6 he shall not honor his father or mother.’ You have made the commandment of God void because of your tradition.
7 Hypocritæ, bene prophetavit de vobis Isaias, dicens:
7 Hipócritas, bien profetizó de vosotros Isaías, diciendo:
7 You hypocrites! Well did Isaiah prophesy of you, saying,
8 [Populus hic labiis me honorat: cor autem eorum longe est a me.
8 Este pueblo de labios me honra; mas su corazón lejos está de mí.
8 ‘These people draw near to me with their mouth, and honor me with their lips; but their heart is far from me.
9 Sine causa autem colunt me, docentes doctrinas et mandata hominum.]
9 Mas en vano me honran, enseñando doctrinas [y] mandamientos de hombres.
9 And they worship me in vain, teaching as doctrine rules made by men.’”
10 Et convocatis ad se turbis, dixit eis: Audite, et intelligite.
10 Y llamando á sí las gentes, les dijo: Oid, y entended:
10 He summoned the multitude, and said to them, “Hear, and understand.
11 Non quod intrat in os, coinquinat hominem: sed quod procedit ex ore, hoc coinquinat hominem.
11 No lo que entra en la boca contamina al hombre; mas lo que sale de la boca, esto contamina al hombre.
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 Tunc accedentes discipuli ejus, dixerunt ei: Scis quia pharisæi audito verbo hoc, scandalizati sunt?
12 Entonces llegándose sus discípulos, le dijeron: ¿Sabes que los Fariseos oyendo esta palabra se ofendieron?
12 Then the disciples came and said to him, “Do you know that the Pharisees were offended when they heard this saying?”
13 At ille respondens ait: Omnis plantatio, quam non plantavit Pater meus cælestis, eradicabitur.
13 Mas respondiendo él, dijo: Toda planta que no plantó mi Padre celestial, será desarraigada.
13 But he answered, “Every plant which my heavenly Father didn’t plant will be uprooted.
14 Sinite illos: cæci sunt, et duces cæcorum; cæcus autem si cæco ducatum præstet, ambo in foveam cadunt.
14 Dejadlos: son ciegos guías de ciegos; y si el ciego guiare al ciego, ambos caerán en el hoyo.
14 Leave them alone. They are blind guides of the blind. If the blind guide the blind, both will fall into a pit.”
15 Respondens autem Petrus dixit ei: Edissere nobis parabolam istam.
15 Y respondiendo Pedro, le dijo: Decláranos esta parábola.
15 Peter answered him, “Explain the parable to us.”
16 At ille dixit: Adhuc et vos sine intellectu estis?
16 Y Jesús dijo: ¿Aun también vosotros sois sin entendimiento?
16 So Jesus said, “Do you also still not understand?
17 Non intelligitis quia omne quod in os intrat, in ventrem vadit, et in secessum emittitur?
17 ¿No entendéis aún, que todo lo que entra en la boca, va al vientre, y es echado en la letrina?
17 Don’t you understand that whatever goes into the mouth passes into the belly and then out of the body?
18 Quæ autem procedunt de ore, de corde exeunt, et ea coinquinant hominem:
18 Mas lo que sale de la boca, del corazón sale; y esto contamina al hombre.
18 But the things which proceed out of the mouth come out of the heart, and they defile the man.
19 de corde enim exeunt cogitationes malæ, homicidia, adulteria, fornicationes, furta, falsa testimonia, blasphemiæ:
19 Porque del corazón salen los malos pensamientos, muertes, adulterios, fornicaciones, hurtos, falsos testimonios, blasfemias.
19 For out of the heart come evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, sexual sins, thefts, false testimony, and blasphemies.
20 hæc sunt, quæ coinquinant hominem. Non lotis autem manibus manducare, non coinquinat hominem.
20 Estas cosas son las que contaminan al hombre: que comer con las manos por lavar no contamina al hombre.
20 These are the things which defile the man; but to eat with unwashed hands doesn’t defile the man.”
21 Et egressus inde Jesus secessit in partes Tyri et Sidonis.
21 Y saliendo Jesús de allí, se fué á las partes de Tiro y de Sidón.
21 Jesus went out from there and withdrew into the region of Tyre and Sidon.
22 Et ecce mulier chananæa a finibus illis egressa clamavit, dicens ei: Miserere mei, Domine fili David: filia mea male a dæmonio vexatur.
22 Y he aquí una mujer Cananea, que había salido de aquellos términos, clamaba, diciéndole: Señor, Hijo de David, ten misericordia de mí; mi hija es malamente atormentada del demonio.
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 Qui non respondit ei verbum. Et accedentes discipuli ejus rogabant eum dicentes: Dimitte eam: quia clamat post nos.
23 Mas él no le respondió palabra. Entonces llegándose sus discípulos, le rogaron, diciendo: Despáchala, pues da voces tras nosotros.
23 But he answered her not a word. His disciples came and begged him, saying, “Send her away; for she cries after us.”
24 Ipse autem respondens ait: Non sum missus nisi ad oves, quæ perierunt domus Israël.
24 Y él respondiendo, dijo: No soy enviado sino á las ovejas perdidas de la casa de Israel.
24 But he answered, “I wasn’t sent to anyone but the lost sheep of the house of Israel.”
25 At illa venit, et adoravit eum, dicens: Domine, adjuva me.
25 Entonces ella vino, y le adoró, diciendo: Señor, socórreme.
25 But she came and worshiped him, saying, “Lord, help me.”
26 Qui respondens ait: Non est bonum sumere panem filiorum, et mittere canibus.
26 Y respondiendo él, dijo: No es bien tomar el pan de los hijos, y echarlo á los perrillos.
26 But he answered, “It is not appropriate to take the children’s bread and throw it to the dogs.”
27 At illa dixit: Etiam Domine: nam et catelli edunt de micis quæ cadunt de mensa dominorum suorum.
27 Y ella dijo: Sí, Señor; mas los perrillos comen de las migajas que caen de la mesa de sus señores.
27 But she said, “Yes, Lord, but even the dogs eat the crumbs which fall from their masters’ table.”
28 Tunc respondens Jesus, ait illi: O mulier, magna est fides tua: fiat tibi sicut vis. Et sanata est filia ejus ex illa hora.
28 Entonces respondiendo Jesús, dijo: Oh mujer, grande es tu fe; sea hecho contigo como quieres. Y fué sana su hija desde aquella hora.
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 Et cum transisset inde Jesus, venit secus mare Galilææ: et ascendens in montem, sedebat ibi.
29 Y partido Jesús de allí, vino junto al mar de Galilea: y subiendo al monte, se sentó allí.
29 Jesus departed from there and came near to the sea of Galilee; and he went up on the mountain and sat there.
30 Et accesserunt ad eum turbæ multæ, habentes secum mutos, cæcos, claudos, debiles, et alios multos: et projecerunt eos ad pedes ejus, et curavit eos,
30 Y llegaron á él muchas gentes, que tenían consigo cojos, ciegos, mudos, mancos, y otros muchos [enfermos]: y los echaron á los pies de Jesús, y los sanó:
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 ita ut turbæ mirarentur, videntes mutos loquentes, claudos ambulantes, cæcos videntes: et magnificabant Deum Israël.
31 De manera que se maravillaban las gentes, viendo hablar los mudos, los mancos sanos, andar los cojos, y ver los ciegos: y glorificaron al Dios de Israel.
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 Jesus 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.
32 Y Jesús llamando á sus discípulos, dijo: Tengo lástima de la gente, que ya [hace] tres días [que] perseveran conmigo, y no tienen qué comer; y enviarlos ayunos no quiero, porque no desmayen en el camino.
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 Et dicunt ei discipuli: Unde ergo nobis in deserto panes tantos, ut saturemus turbam tantam?
33 Entonces sus discípulos le dicen: ¿Dónde tenemos nosotros tantos panes en el desierto, que hartemos á tan gran compañía?
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 Et ait illis Jesus: Quot habetis panes? At illi dixerunt: Septem, et paucos pisciculos.
34 Y Jesús les dice: ¿Cuántos panes tenéis? Y ellos dijeron: Siete, y unos pocos pececillos.
34 Jesus said to them, “How many loaves do you have?” They said, “Seven, and a few small fish.”
35 Et præcepit turbæ ut discumberent super terram.
35 Y mandó á las gentes que se recostasen sobre la tierra.
35 He commanded the multitude to sit down on the ground;
36 Et accipiens septem panes, et pisces, et gratias agens, fregit, et dedit discipulis suis, et discipuli dederunt populo.
36 Y tomando los siete panes y los peces, haciendo gracias, partió y dió á sus discípulos; y los discípulos á la gente.
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 Et comederunt omnes, et saturati sunt. Et quod superfuit de fragmentis, tulerunt septem sportas plenas.
37 Y comieron todos, y se hartaron: y alzaron lo que sobró de los pedazos, siete espuertas llenas.
37 They all ate and were filled. They took up seven baskets full of the broken pieces that were left over.
38 Erant autem qui manducaverunt quatuor millia hominum, extra parvulos et mulieres.
38 Y eran los que habían comido, cuatro mil hombres, sin las mujeres y los niños.
38 Those who ate were four thousand men, in addition to women and children.
39 Et, dimissa turba, ascendit in naviculam: et venit in fines Magedan.
39 Entonces, despedidas las gentes, subió en el barco: y vino á los términos de Magdalá.
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).
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.

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.

For [the Scripture] saith in a certain place, "This people honoureth Me with their lips, but their heart is far from Me." And again: "They bless with their mouth, but curse with their heart." And again it saith, "They loved Him with their mouth, and lied to Him with their tongue; but their heart was not right with Him, neither …
… the simple command of God; that is, they set up a spurious law, and one contrary to the [true] law; as also the Lord made plain, when He said to them, "Why do ye transgress the commandment of God, for the sake of your tradition?" For not only by actual transgression did they set the law of God at nought, …
For He says in the Gospel, "I am not sent save to the lost sheep of the house of Israel," which He here compared to the pupil of God's eye, to signify the profoundest love.
