Mark 7:15-19

Moffatt(i) 15 nothing outside a man can defile him by entering him; it is what comes from him that defiles him. 16 If anyone has ears to hear, let him listen to this." 17 Now when he went indoors away from the crowd, his disciples asked him the meaning of this parabolic saying. 18 He said to them, "So you do not understand, either? Do you not see how nothing outside a man can defile him by entering him? 19 It does not enter his heart but his belly and passes from that into the drain" (thus he pronounced all food clean).
