Mark 7:20 in Context — Mark 7

18 Y díjoles: ¿También vosotros estáis así sin entendimiento? ¿No entendéis que todo lo de fuera que entra en el hombre, no le puede contaminar;

19 Porque no entra en su corazón, sino en el vientre, y sale á la secreta? [Esto decía], haciendo limpias todas las viandas.

20 Mas decía, que lo que del hombre sale, aquello contamina al hombre.

21 Porque de dentro, del corazón de los hombres, salen los malos pensamientos, los adulterios, las fornicaciones, los homicidios,

22 Los hurtos, las avaricias, las maldades, el engaño, las desvergüenzas, el ojo maligno, las injurias, la soberbia, la insensatez.
