Matthew 15:11
A man is not defiled by what enters his mouth, but by what comes out of it.”
Not that which goeth into the mouth defileth a man; but that which cometh out of the mouth, this defileth a man.
That which enters into the mouth doesn’t defile the man; but that which proceeds out of the mouth, this defiles the man.”
Not that which entereth into the mouth defileth the man; but that which proceedeth out of the mouth, this defileth the man.
