1 And he entered into a ship, and passed over, and came into his own city. 2 And, behold, they brought to him a man sick of the palsy, lying on a bed: and Jesus seeing their faith said unto the sick of the palsy; Son, be of good cheer; thy sins be forgiven thee. 3 And, behold, certain of the scribes said within themselves, This man blasphemeth. 4 And Jesus knowing their thoughts said, Wherefore think ye evil in your hearts? 5 For whether is easier, to say, Thy sins be forgiven thee; or to say, Arise, and walk? 6 But that ye may know that the Son of man hath power on earth to forgive sins, (then saith he to the sick of the palsy,) Arise, take up thy bed, and go unto thine house. 7 And he arose, and departed to his house. 8 But when the multitudes saw it, they marvelled, and glorified God, which had given such power unto men.
9 And as Jesus passed forth from thence, he saw a man, named Matthew, sitting at the receipt of custom: and he saith unto him, Follow me. And he arose, and followed him.
10 And it came to pass, as Jesus sat at meat in the house, behold, many publicans and sinners came and sat down with him and his disciples. 11 And when the Pharisees saw it, they said unto his disciples, Why eateth your Master with publicans and sinners? 12 But when Jesus heard that, he said unto them, They that be whole need not a physician, but they that are sick. 13 But go ye and learn what that meaneth, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice: for I am not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.
14 Then came to him the disciples of John, saying, Why do we and the Pharisees fast oft, but thy disciples fast not? 15 And Jesus said unto them, Can the children of the bridechamber mourn, as long as the bridegroom is with them? but the days will come, when the bridegroom shall be taken from them, and then shall they fast. 16 No man putteth a piece of new cloth unto an old garment, for that which is put in to fill it up taketh from the garment, and the rent is made worse. 17 Neither do men put new wine into old bottles: else the bottles break, and the wine runneth out, and the bottles perish: but they put new wine into new bottles, and both are preserved.
18 While he spake these things unto them, behold, there came a certain ruler, and worshipped him, saying, My daughter is even now dead: but come and lay thy hand upon her, and she shall live. 19 And Jesus arose, and followed him, and so did his disciples.
20 And, behold, a woman, which was diseased with an issue of blood twelve years, came behind him, and touched the hem of his garment: 21 For she said within herself, If I may but touch his garment, I shall be whole. 22 But Jesus turned him about, and when he saw her, he said, Daughter, be of good comfort; thy faith hath made thee whole. And the woman was made whole from that hour. 23 And when Jesus came into the ruler’s house, and saw the minstrels and the people making a noise, 24 He said unto them, Give place: for the maid is not dead, but sleepeth. And they laughed him to scorn. 25 But when the people were put forth, he went in, and took her by the hand, and the maid arose. 26 And the fame hereof went abroad into all that land.
27 And when Jesus departed thence, two blind men followed him, crying, and saying, Thou Son of David, have mercy on us. 28 And when he was come into the house, the blind men came to him: and Jesus saith unto them, Believe ye that I am able to do this? They said unto him, Yea, Lord. 29 Then touched he their eyes, saying, According to your faith be it unto you. 30 And their eyes were opened; and Jesus straitly charged them, saying, See that no man know it. 31 But they, when they were departed, spread abroad his fame in all that country.
32 As they went out, behold, they brought to him a dumb man possessed with a devil. 33 And when the devil was cast out, the dumb spake: and the multitudes marvelled, saying, It was never so seen in Israel. 34 But the Pharisees said, He casteth out devils through the prince of the devils. 35 And Jesus went about all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing every sickness and every disease among the people.
36 But when he saw the multitudes, he was moved with compassion on them, because they fainted, and were scattered abroad, as sheep having no shepherd. 37 Then saith he unto his disciples, The harvest truly is plenteous, but the labourers are few; 38 Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he will send forth labourers into his harvest.
1 耶稣上了船, 过到自己的城来。
2 有人把一个躺在床上的瘫子带到他那里。耶稣看见他们的信心, 就对瘫子说: "孩子, 放心! 你的罪赦了。"
3 有几位经学家彼此说: "这个人在说僭妄的话。"
4 耶稣看出他们所想的, 就说: "你们心里为什么存着恶念呢?
5 说‘你的罪赦了’, 或说‘起来行走’, 哪一样容易呢?
6 然而为了要使你们知道人子在地上有赦罪的权柄, (他就对瘫子说: )起来, 拿起你的床, 回家去吧。"
7 他就起来回家去了。
8 群众看见, 就起了敬畏的心, 颂赞那把这样的权柄赐给人的 神。
9 耶稣从那里往前走, 看见一个人, 名叫马太, 坐在税关那里, 就对他说: "来跟从我! "他就起来跟从了耶稣。
10 耶稣在屋里吃饭的时候, 有很多税吏和罪人来与他和门徒一起吃饭。
11 法利赛人看见了, 就对他的门徒说: "你们的老师为什么跟税吏和罪人一起吃饭呢?"
12 耶稣听见了, 就说: "健康的人不需要医生, 有病的人才需要,
13 ‘我喜爱怜悯, 不喜爱祭祀’, 你们去想一想这话的意思吧。我来不是要召义人, 而是要召罪人。"
14 那时, 约翰的门徒前来问耶稣: "为什么我们和法利赛人常常禁食, 你的门徒却不禁食呢?"
15 耶稣回答: "新郎跟宾客在一起的时候, 宾客怎能哀痛呢?但到了时候, 新郎就要从他们中间被取去, 那时他们就要禁食了。
16 没有人会拿一块新布补在旧衣服上, 因为补上的会把衣服扯破, 裂的地方就更大了。
17 也没有人会把新酒装在旧皮袋里, 如果这样, 皮袋就会胀破, 酒就漏出来, 皮袋也损坏了。人总是把新酒装在新皮袋里, 这样, 两样都可以保全。"
18 耶稣对他们说话的时候, 有一位会堂的主管走来跪在他面前, 说: "我的女儿刚死了, 但请你来按手在她身上, 她必活过来。"
19 于是耶稣和门徒起来跟着他去了。
20 有一个女人, 患了十二年的血漏病, 她走到耶稣背后, 摸他衣服的繸子,
21 因为她心里说: "只要摸到他的衣服, 我就必痊愈。"
22 耶稣转过来看见她, 就说: "女儿, 放心! 你的信心使你痊愈了。"从那时起, 那女人就好了。
23 耶稣进了那主管的家, 看见有吹笛的人和喧哗的群众,
24 就说: "出去! 这女孩不是死了, 只是睡了。"他们就嘲笑他。
25 耶稣赶走众人之后, 进去拉着女孩的手, 女孩就起来了。
26 这消息传遍了那一带。
27 耶稣离开那里的时候, 有两个瞎子跟着他, 喊着说: "大卫的子孙, 可怜我们吧! "
28 耶稣进了房子, 他们来到他那里。耶稣问他们: "你们信我能作这些事吗?"他们回答: "主啊, 我们信。"
29 于是耶稣摸他们的眼睛, 说: "照你们的信心给你们成就吧。"
30 他们的眼睛就看见了。耶稣严严地嘱咐他们: "千万不可让人知道。"
31 他们却出去, 把他所作的事传遍了那一带。
32 他们出去的时候, 有人带着一个被鬼附着的哑巴来见耶稣。
33 耶稣把鬼赶走之后, 哑巴就说话了。众人都很惊奇, 说: "这样的事, 在以色列从来没有见过。"
34 但法利赛人说: "他不过是靠鬼王赶鬼罢了。"
35 耶稣走遍各城各乡, 在各会堂里教导人, 宣扬天国的福音, 医治各种疾病、各种病症。
36 他看见群众, 就怜悯他们, 因为他们困苦无依, 像没有牧人的羊一样。
37 他就对门徒说: "庄稼多, 工人少;
38 所以你们应当求庄稼的主派工人去收割。"
