Gospel Mark 7:14-23
14 He called all the multitude to himself, and said to them, "Hear me, all of you, and understand.
15 There is nothing from outside of the man, that going into him can defile him; but the things which proceed out of the man are those that defile the man.
16 If anyone has ears to hear, let him hear!"†
17 When he had entered into a house away from the multitude, his disciples asked him about the parable.
18 He said to them, "Are you also without understanding? Don't you perceive that whatever goes into the man from outside can't defile him,
19 because it doesn't go into his heart, but into his stomach, then into the latrine, thus purifying all foods‡?"
20 He said, "That which proceeds out of the man, that defiles the man.
21 For from within, out of the hearts of men, proceed evil thoughts, adulteries, sexual sins, murders, thefts,
22 covetings, wickedness, deceit, lustful desires, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, and foolishness. 23 All these evil things come from within, and defile the man."
†7:16: NU omits verse 16.
‡7:19: or, "making all foods clean". NU ends Jesus' direct quote and question after "latrine", ending the verse with "Thus he declared all foods clean.

Genesis 2:4b-9, 15-17
4b This is the history of the generations of the heavens and of the earth when they were created,
in the day that the LORD* God made the earth and the heavens.
5 No plant of the field was yet in the earth, and no herb of the field had yet sprung up; for the LORD God had not caused it to rain on the earth. There was not a man to till the ground,
6 but a mist went up from the earth, and watered the whole surface of the ground.
7 The LORD God formed man from the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.
8 The LORD God planted a garden eastward, in Eden, and there he put the man whom he had formed.
9 Out of the ground the LORD God made every tree to grow that is pleasant to the sight, and good for food, including the tree of life in the middle of the garden and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.
15 The LORD God took the man, and put him into the garden of Eden to cultivate and keep it.
16 The LORD God commanded the man, saying, "You may freely eat of every tree of the garden;
17 but you shall not eat of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil; for in the day that you eat of it, you will surely die."
*2:4: When rendered in ALL CAPITAL LETTERS, "LORD" or "GOD" is the translation of God's Proper Name.
