And calling the multitude to Him, He said to them, Hear and understand: That if which cometh into the mouth does not defile the man; but that which cometh out from the mouth, that defiles the man.

And calling the crowd to Him again, He said to them, Hear all ye, and understand. There is nothing without a man coming into him, which is competent to defile him: but those things coming out from him, these are the things which defile the man. If any one has ears to hear, let him hear. read more.
And when He came from the multitude into the house, His disciples asked Him the parable. And He says to them, Are you still without understanding? Do you not know that everything external entering into a man is not able to defile him? Because it does not go into his heart, but into his stomach, and is cast out into the excrement, purifying all edibles. And He said, Everything proceeding out from the man, that defiles the man. For within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil reasonings, adulteries, fornications, murders, thefts, covetousness, wickedness, deceit, impurity, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, folly. All these evils proceed out from within, and defile the man.

But Saul, still breathing out threatenings and slaughter against the disciples of the Lord, having come to the high priest, asked from him letters to Damascus against the synagogues, in order that if he should find any being of the way, both men and women, he might lead them bound to Jerusalem. And it came to pass, while prosecuting the journey he drew near to Damascus, suddenly a light from heaven shone around him; read more.
and falling on the ground, he heard a voice saying to him, Saul, Saul, why do you persecute me? And he said, Who art thou, Lord? And He said, I am Jesus whom you are persecuting. But stand up, and go into the city, and it shall be told thee what it behooves thee to do. And the men journeying along with him stood speechless, indeed hearing the voice, but seeing no one. And Saul arose from the ground; and his eyes being open, he saw nothing: but leading him by the hand, they led him into Damascus; and he was three days not seeing, neither did he eat nor drink. And there was a certain disciple in Damascus, Ananias by name; and the Lord said to him in a vision, Ananias. And he said, Behold, I am here, Lord. And the Lord said to him, Arising, go to the street which is called Straight, and seek a Tarsean, by name Saul, in the house of Judas; for, behold, he is praying, and he saw a man, Ananias by name, coming in, and putting his hands on him, in order that he may look up. And Ananias responded, Lord I have heard from many about this man, how much evil he has done to thy saints in Jerusalem: and he here has authority from the chief priests to bind all those calling on thy name. And the Lord said to him, Go: because he is a vessel of election to me, to bear my name both before the Gentiles, and kings, and sons of Israel: for I will show him how many things it behooves him to suffer for my name's sake. And Ananias departed, and came into the house: and putting his hands on him said, Brother Saul, the Lord, Jesus, that appeared to you in the way in which thou didst come, hath sent me, that thou mayest look up, and he filled with the Holy Ghost. And immediately there fell from his eyes as scales: and he looked up; and having stood up, was baptized,
