The Lord is the defense of my life; Whom shall I dread?\ 2 When evildoers came upon me to devour my flesh, My adversaries and my enemies, they stumbled and fell.\ 3 Though a host encamp against me, My heart will not fear; Though war arise against me, In spite of his I shall be confident.\ 4 One thing I have asked from the Lord, that I shall seek: That I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, To behold the a beauty of the Lord And to meditate in His temple.\ 5 For in the day of trouble He will conceal me in His tabernacle; In the secret place of His tent He will hide me; He will lift me up on a rock.\ 6 And now my head will be lifted up above my enemies around me, And I will offer in His tent sacrifices with shouts of joy; I will sing, yes, I will sing praises to the Lord.\ 7 Hear, O Lord, when I cry with my voice, And be gracious to me and answer me.\ 8 When You said, "Seek My face," my heart said to You, "Your face, O Lord, I shall seek."\ 9 Do not hide Your face from me, Do not turn Your servant away in anger; You have been my help; Do not abandon me nor forsake me, O God of my salvation!\ 10 For my father and my mother have forsaken me, But the Lord will take me up.\ 11 Teach me Your way, O Lord, And lead me in a level path Because of my foes.\ 12 Do not deliver me over to the desire of my adversaries, For false witnesses have risen against me, And such as breathe out violence.\ 13 I would have despaired unless I had believed that I would see the goodness of the Lord In the land of the living.\ 14 Wait for the Lord; Be strong and let your heart take courage; Yes, wait for the Lord.\ Psalm 28\ A Psalm of David.\ 1 To You, O Lord, I call; My rock, do not be deaf to me, For if You are silent to me,\ MARK 7:1\ Followers of Tradition\ [7 The Pharisees and some of the scribes gathered around Him when they had come from Jerusalem,\ 2 and had seen that some of His disciples were eating their bread with impure hands, that is, unwashed.\ 3 (For the Pharisees and all the Jews do not eat unless they carefully wash their hands, thus observing the traditions of the elders;\ 4 and when they come from the market place, they do not eat unless they cleanse themselves; and there are many other things which they have received in order to observe, such as the washing of cups and pitchers and copper pots.)\ 5 The Pharisees and the scribes asked Him, "Why do Your disciples not walk according to the tradition of the elders, but eat their bread with impure hands?"\ 6 And He said to them, "Rightly did Isaiah prophesy of you hypocrites, as it is written:\ 'This people honors Me with their lips, But their heart is far away from Me.\ 7 'But in vain do they worship Me, Teaching as doctrines the precepts of men.'\ 8 "Neglecting the commandment of God, you hold to the tradition of men."\ 9 He was also saying to them, "You are experts at setting aside the commandment of God in order to keep your tradition.\ 10 "For Moses said, 'Honor your father and your mother'; and, 'He who speaks evil of father or mother, is to be put to death';\ 11 but you say, 'If a man says to his father or his mother, whatever I have that would help you is Corban (that is to say, given to God),'\ 12 you no longer permit him to do anything for his father or his mother;\ 13 thus invalidating the word of God by your tradition which you have handed down; and you do many things such as that."\ The Heart of Man\ 14 After He called the crowd to Him again, He began saying to them, "Listen to Me, all of you, and understand:\ 15 there is nothing outside the man which can defile him if it goes into him; but the things which proceed out of the man are what defile the man.\ 16 ["If anyone has ears to hear, let him hear."]\ 17 When he had left the crowd and entered the house, His disciples questioned Him about the parable.\ 18 And He said to them, "Are you so lacking in understanding also? Do you not understand that whatever goes into the an from outside cannot defile him,\ 19 because it does not go into his heart, but into his stomach, and is eliminated?" (Thus He declared all foods clean.)\ 20 And He was saying, "That which proceeds out of the man, that is what defiles the man.\ 21 "For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed the evil thoughts fornications, thefts, murders, adulteries,\ 22 deeds of coveting and wickedness, as well as deceit, sensuality, envy, slander, pride and foolishness.\ 23 "All these evil things proceed from within and defile the man."\ The Syrophoenician Woman\ 24 Jesus got up and went away from there to the region of Tyre. And when He had entered a house, He wanted no one to know of it; yet He could not escape notice.\ 25 But after hearing of Him, a woman whose little daughter had an unclean spirit immediately came and fell at His feet.\ 26 Now the woman was a Gentile, of the Syrophoenician race. And she kept asking Him to cast the demon out of her daughter.\ 27 And He was saying to her, "Let the children be satisfied first, for it is not good to take the children's bread and throw it to the dogs."\ 28 But she answered and said to Him, "Yes, Lord, but even the dogs under the table feed on the children's crumbs."\ 29 And He said to her, "Because of this answer go; the demon has gone out of your daughter."\ 30 And going back to her home, she found the child lying on the bed, the demon having left.\ 31 Again He went out from the region of Tyre, and came through Sidon to the Sea of Galilee, within the region of Decapolis.\ 32 They brought to Him one who was deaf and spoke with difficulty, and they implored Him to lay His hand on him.\ 33 Jesus took him aside from the crowd, by himself, and put His fingers into his ears, and after spitting, He touched his tongue with the saliva;\ 34 and looking up to heaven with a deep sigh, He said to him, "Ephphatha!" that is, "Be opened!"\ 35 And his ears were opened, and the impediment of his tongue was removed, and he began speaking plainly.\ 36 And He gave them orders not to tell anyone; but the more He ordered them, the more widely they continued to proclaim it.\ 37 They were utterly astonished, saying, "He has done all things well; He makes even the deaf to hear and the mute to speak."\ Four Thousand Fed\ 8 In those days, when there was again a large crowd and they had nothing to eat, Jesus called His disciples and said to them,\ 2 "I feel compassion for the people because they have remained with Me now three days and have nothing to eat.\ \ Continues...\ \ \ \ Excerpted from ZOND NASB WIDE MARGIN HC Copyright © 2002 by Zondervan.
