Matius 15:16-18

15:16 Jesus ¹  said, “Even after all this, are you still so foolish? 15:17 Don’t you understand that whatever goes into the mouth enters the stomach and then passes out into the sewer? ²  15:18 But the things that come out of the mouth come from the heart, and these things defile a person.

[15:16]  ¹ tn Grk “he”; the referent (Jesus) has been specified in the translation for clarity. Here δέ (de) has not been translated.

[15:17]  ² tn Or “into the latrine.”
