1 And stepping into the boat, he passed over, and came to the own city.
2 And lo, they brought to him, a paralytic, upon a bed lying. And seeing the Jesus the faith of them, he said to the paralytic: Take courage, son; are forgiven thee the sins of thee.
3 And lo, some of the scribes said among themselves: This blasphemes.
4 And knowing the Jesus the thoughts of them, says: Why you think evils in the hearts of you?
5 Which for is easier? to say: Are forgiven of thee the sins? or to say: Arise and walk?
6 That but you may know that authority has the son of the man on the earth to forgive sins; (then he says to the paralytic:) Arising take up of thee the bed, and go into the house of thee.
7 And arising he went to the house of him.
8 Seeing and the crowds wondered, and glorified the God, that having given authority so great to the men.
9 And passing on the Jesus from thence, he saw a man sitting at the customhouse, Matthew being named; and he says to him: Follow me. And rising up he followed him.
10 And it happened, of him reclining at table in the house, and lo, many publicans and sinners coming reclined with the Jesus and the disciples of him.
11 And seeing the Pharisees said to the disciples of him: Why with the publicans and sinners eats the teacher of you?
12 The Jesus hearing, says to them: No need have those being well of a physician, but those sick being.
13 You are going but learn, what is; Mercy I wish, and not a sacrifice. Not for I am come to call just persons, but sinners.
14 Then came to him the disciples of John, saying: Why we and the Pharisees fast much, the but disciples of thee not fast?
15 And says to them the Jesus: Not are able the sons of the bridal chamber to mourn, in as much with them is the bridegroom? Shall come but days, when may be taken from them the bridegroom, and then they shall fast.
16 No one now puts a patch of cloth unfulled on to a mantle old; takes away for the patch of it from the mantle, and worse a rent becomes.
17 Nor do they put wine new into bottles old; if but not, burst the bottles, and the wine is spilled, and the bottles are destroyed; but they put wine new into bottles new, and both are preserved together.
18 These of him speaking, of them, lo, a ruler certain coming prostrated to him, saying: That the daughter of me now is dead; but coming lay the hand of thee upon her, and she shall live.
19 And arising the Jesus went after him, and the disciples of him.
20 And lo, a woman having a flow of blood twelve years, approaching behind, touched the tuft of the mantle of him.
21 She said for within herself: If only I can touch the mantle of him, I shall be healed.
22 The but Jesus turning and seeing her, said: Take courage, daughter; the faith of thee has saved thee. And she was well the woman from the hour of that.
23 And coming the Jesus into the house of a ruler, and seeing the fluteplayers, and the crowd making noise,
24 says to them: Withdraw; not for is dead the girl, but sleeps. And they derided him.
25 When but they put out the crowd, he entering took hold of the hand of her; and was raised the girl.
26 And went forth the report this into all the land that.
27 And passing on from there the Jesus, went after him two blind men, crying out and saying: Have pity on us, O son of David.
28 Being come and into the house, came to him the blind men, and says to them the Jesus: Do you believe, that I am able this I do? They say to him: Yes O master.
29 Then he touched the eyes of them, saying: According to the faith of you be it done to you.
30 And were opened of them the eyes. And strictly charged them the Jesus, saying: See, no one knows.
31 They but having gone published him in all the land that.
32 These and going away, lo, they brought to him a man dumb, being demonized.
33 And having cast out the demon, spoke the dumb. And were astonished the crowds, saying: Never was it seen thus in to the Israel.
34 The but Pharisees said: By the prince of the demons he cast out the demons.
35 And went about the Jesus the cities all and the villages, teaching in the synagogues of them, and publishing the glad tidings of the kingdom, and healing every disease and every malady.
36 Seeing and the crowds, he moved with pity for them, because they were jaded and scattered, like sheep not having a shepherd.
37 Then he says to the disciples of him: The indeed harvest plenteous, the but laborers few.
38 Implore then the Lord of the harvest, that he would send out laborers into the harvest of him.
1 Jesus entered a boat and crossed over to his own city Capernaum, on the other side of the lake.
2 A man on a bed, a paralytic, was brought to Jesus. Seeing their faith Jesus said to the sick man: »Have courage; your sins are forgiven.«
3 Some of the scribes said among themselves: »This man has no respect for God.«
4 Knowing their thoughts, Jesus said: »Why are your thoughts evil?
5 »Which is easier, to say, your sins are forgiven, or to say, get up and walk?«
6 So that you know that the Son of man has authority on earth to forgive sins he turned and spoke to the paralytic or paralyzed man: »Get up, take your bed and go to your house.«
7 He arose, and departed to his house.
8 But when the people saw it, they marveled, and glorified God who had given such authority to men.
9 Jesus moved on. He then saw Matthew seated at his work collecting taxes. He said to him: »Follow me.« He rose and followed him.
10 Jesus was a dinner guest at Matthews house. Many tax collectors and sinners came and sat down with him and his disciples.
11 When the Pharisees saw it, they asked his disciples: »Why does your Teacher eat with the tax collectors and sinners?«
12 When he heard it, he said: »People who are well do not have need of a physician. The sick do.
13 »You should learn what this means: I desire mercy, and not sacrifice; for I came, not to call the righteous, but sinners.«
14 The disciples of John asked: »Why do your disciples not fast?« They frequently fasted, and so did the Pharisees.
15 Jesus replied: »Should the wedding guests mourn and also celebrate with the groom? The days will come when the bridegroom will be taken away from them. Then they will fast.
16 »Why patch an old garment with cloth that has not been shrunk? The patch shrinks and pulls away from the old cloth leaving a big hole.
17 »Neither do men put new wine in old wineskins. The skins burst and the wine is lost. They put new wine in fresh wineskins, and both are preserved.«
18 While he was speaking, an official came and paid him respect. He said: »By now my daughter must be dead. Come and lay your hand on her and she will live.«
19 Jesus and his disciples got up and followed him.
20 A woman who had a hemorrhage chronic flow of blood for twelve years came behind him. She touched the border of his garment.
21 She said to herself: »If I touch his garment, I will be healed.«
22 Jesus turned to see her and said: »Daughter, take courage; your faith has made you well.« The woman was healed at that time.
23 Jesus went into the officials house and saw flute players and the crowd making a lot of noise.
24 He told them to leave: »For the girl is not dead, but sleeps.« They all scornfully laughed at him.
25 The people were sent away. He went to the girl, took hold of her hand, and she got up.
26 The news about this spread to all the land.
27 Jesus left that place and walked along the road. Two blind men followed him. They shouted: »Have mercy on us, Son of David!«
28 He went into a nearby house. The blind men followed him. Jesus asked them: »Do you believe that I can heal you?« They said: »Yes Lord.«
29 He touched their eyes. »Let it be done,« he said, »according to your faith.«
30 Their eyes were opened. Jesus strictly warned them: »Do not let anyone know about this.«
31 They spread the news about Jesus all over that part of the country.
32 Next, a dumb man possessed with a demon was brought to him.
33 When the demon was cast out, the dumb man spoke. The crowd marveled, saying: »We have never seen anything like this in Israel!«
34 The Pharisees complained: »He casts out demons with the help of the ruler of the demons.«
35 Jesus went to all the cities and the villages, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the good news of the kingdom. He healed every sort of disease and every sort of infirmity.
36 When he saw the large crowds of people, he was moved with compassion for them. He knew they were distressed and scattered like sheep not having a shepherd.
37 Jesus said to his disciples: »The harvest is abundant, but the laborers are few.
38 »Pray that the Lord of the harvest will send out workers into his harvest.«
