New American Bible - revised edition

The Pharisee was amazed to see that he did not observe the prescribed washing before the meal.

See the chapter Copy

When Jesus heard this, he was amazed and said to those following him, “Amen, I say to you, in no one in Israel have I found such faith.

After he had spoken, a Pharisee invited him to dine at his home. He entered and reclined at table to eat.

Now a dispute arose between the disciples of John and a Jew about ceremonial washings.
