Not that which goeth into the mouth defileth a man; but that which cometh out of the mouth, this defileth a man.

Was zum Munde eingeht, das verunreinigt den Menschen nicht; sondern was zum Munde ausgeht, das verunreinigt den Menschen.
No lo que entra en la boca contamina al hombre; mas lo que sale de la boca, esto contamina al hombre.
no es lo que entra en la boca lo que contamina al ser humano; lo que sale de la boca, eso contamina al ser humano».
Ce n'est pas ce qui entre dans la bouche qui souille l'homme; mais ce qui sort de la bouche, c'est ce qui souille l'homme.
Non ciò che entra nella bocca contamina l’uomo; ma ben lo contamina ciò che esce dalla bocca.
O que contamina o homem não é o que entra na boca, mas o que sai da boca, isso é o que contamina o homem.
從口裏進去的不玷污人,從口裏出來的才玷污人。」
