When
Jesus
had concluded
His
discourse
in the hearing of the people, He went
to
Capernaum.
After
he
had finished
speaking
in the hearing of the people, he entered
into
Capernaum.
There
a highly
valued
servant of
a
centurion
was sick and about
to
die
.
A certain
centurion's
servant ,
who
was dear
to
him,
was
sick and at
the
point
of
death
.
When the
centurion
heard about Jesus, he sent some
Jewish
elders
to ask
Him to come and heal
his servant.
When he
heard about Jesus, he sent to him elders
of
the
Jews,
asking
him
to come and save
his servant.
They came to Jesus and
pleaded
with
Him earnestly, “This
man
is worthy to
have
You grant
this,
When
they came to Jesus ,
they
begged
him earnestly, saying,
"He
is worthy for
you to
do
this for
him
,
for he loves our nation and has
built our synagogue. ”
for he loves our nation ,
and he
built our synagogue for
us
. "
So
Jesus went with them. But
when He was not far from the house, the centurion sent friends with
the
message:
“
Lord, do
not
trouble Yourself, for I am not worthy to
have
You come under my roof.
Jesus went with them. When he was now
not far from the house, the centurion sent friends to
him,
saying
to
him,
"
Lord, don't
trouble yourself, for I am not worthy for
you to
come under my roof.
That
is
why
I did
not
consider
myself worthy to come to You .
But just
say the word, and my servant will be healed.
Therefore
I didn't
even
think
myself worthy to come to you ;
but say the word, and my servant will be healed.
For I myself
am a man under authority, with
soldiers
under me
. I tell one to
go
, and he goes; and another
to come
, and he comes .
I
tell
my servant to
do something
, and he does it. ”
For I also
am a man placed
under authority, having
under myself
soldiers
. I tell this
one, 'Go!'
and he goes; and to another
, 'Come!'
and he comes ;
and
to
my servant ,
'
Do this
, '
and he does it. "
When Jesus heard this
, He marveled at the
centurion.
Turning
to
the
crowd
following
Him, He
said, “
I tell you, not
even
in
Israel
have
I found such great faith. ”
When Jesus heard these
things
, he marveled at him, and
turned
and
said to
the
multitude
who
followed
him
, "
I tell you, I have
not
found such great faith ,
no,
not
in
Israel
. "
And
when
the
messengers
returned
to the house, they
found the servant in
good
health
.
Those
who
were
sent,
returning
to the house, found that
the servant who
had
been
sick
was
well
.
Soon afterward
, Jesus
went to a town
called Nain. His disciples went with Him ,
accompanied
by
a
large
crowd
.
It
happened
soon afterwards
, that
he
went to a city
called Nain. Many
of
his disciples ,
along
with
a
great
multitude,
went with him.
As
He approached
the town
gate, He
saw
a
dead man
being
carried out, the only son of his mother, and she was a widow. And
a
large
crowd
from
the town
was
with her.
Now
when
he drew
near
to
the gate of
the
city
, behold,
one
who
was
dead was
carried out, the only son of his mother, and she was a widow. Many
people
of
the city
were
with her.
When the Lord saw her, He had compassion on her and said, “Do
not
weep
. ”
When the Lord saw her, he had compassion on her ,
and said to
her
, "Don't
cry
. "
Then
He went
up
and touched the coffin, and those
carrying
it
stood still. “Young
man,”
He said, “
I tell you, get
up
! ”
He came
near
and touched the coffin, and the
bearers
stood still. He said, "Young
man,
I tell you, arise
! "
And
the
dead man
sat up and began to speak !
Then
Jesus
gave him back
to his mother.
He
who
was
dead sat up ,
and began to speak .
And
he
gave him to his mother.
A
sense
of awe
swept
over
all of
them
, and they glorified God .
“
A great prophet has appeared
among us! ”
they
said.
“
God has visited His people! ”
Fear
took
hold
of all, and they glorified God ,

the news
about
Jesus
spread
throughout
Judea and all the surrounding region.

Then
John’s
disciples informed
him about all these things.
The
disciples of
John
told
him about all these things.
So
John called
two of his disciples and
sent them to ask
the
Lord
, “
Are You the One who was
to
come
, or should we look for someone
else
? ”
John ,
calling
to
himself
two of his disciples ,
sent them to Jesus
, saying,
"
Are you the one who is
coming
, or should we look for another
? "
When the men came
to Jesus
, they said, “
John the Baptist
sent us to ask
, ‘
Are You the
One
who was
to
come
, or should we look for someone
else
? ’”
When the men had
come
to him
, they said, "
John the Baptizer
has
sent us to you
, saying,
'
Are you he
who comes
, or should we look for another
? '"
At
that very
hour Jesus
healed
many people
of their
diseases ,
afflictions,
and evil spirits ,
and He
gave
sight
to many who were blind.
In
that hour he
cured
many of diseases and plagues
and
evil spirits ;
and to many who were blind he
gave
sight
.
So
He
replied
, “
Go back
and report
to
John what
you have seen and heard: The blind receive sight, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, and the good news is
preached to the
poor
.
Jesus
answered
them
, "
Go and tell
John the
things
which
you have seen and heard: that
the blind receive their
sight, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised up
, and the poor
have
good news preached to them
.
Blessed is the
one
who does
not fall
away
on
account
of
Me. ”
Blessed is he
who is
not offended
by
me. "
After
John’s
messengers had left
, Jesus
began to speak
to
the crowds
about John :
“
What did you go out into the wilderness to see? A reed swaying
in
the wind?
When
John's
messengers had departed
, he
began to tell
the multitudes
about John ,
"
What did you go out into the wilderness to see? A reed shaken
by
the wind?
Otherwise,
what did you go out to see? A man dressed
in fine
clothes
? Look
, those who wear
elegant
clothing
and live in
luxury
are found
in palaces
.
But
what did you go out to see? A man clothed
in soft
clothing
? Behold
, those who are
gorgeously
dressed,
and live delicately,
are in kings'
courts
.
What then
did you go out to see? A prophet? Yes, I tell you, and more than a prophet.
But
what did you go out to see? A prophet? Yes, I tell you, and much
more than a prophet.
This is the
one
about
whom it is written :
‘
Behold, I will
send My messenger ahead
of
You
, who will prepare Your way before You. ’
This is he
of
whom it is written ,
'
Behold, I send my messenger before
your
face

I tell you, among those born of women there is no
one
greater than John, yet even
the
least in the kingdom of God is greater than he. ”
"For
I tell you, among those who
are
born of women there is not
a
greater prophet
than John the
Baptizer
, yet he
who
is
least in the Kingdom of God is greater than he. "
All the people who
heard
this,
even
the tax collectors, acknowledged
God’s
justice.
For
they had
received
the
baptism of
John
.
When
all the people and
the tax collectors heard
this
, they declared
God
to
be
just,
having
been
baptized
with
John's
baptism.
But the Pharisees and experts
in
the law
rejected God’s
purpose
for
themselves
, because
they
had
not been
baptized by John
.
But the Pharisees and the lawyers
rejected the
counsel
of
God
, not being
baptized by him
themselves
.
“
To what ,
then ,
can
I compare
the men
of this generation? What are they like?
But
the
Lord
said,
"
To what then will
I liken
the people
of this generation? What are they like?
They are like children sitting
in the marketplace and calling
out
to
one another :
‘
We played
the
flute
for
you, and you did
not
dance ;
we sang
a
dirge
, and you did
not
weep. ’
They are like children who
sit
in the marketplace ,
and call
one to
another ,
saying,
'
We piped
to
you, and you didn't
dance .
We mourned
, and you didn't
weep. '
For John the Baptist
came neither eating bread nor drinking wine, and you say, ‘
He has a demon !’
For John the Baptizer
came neither eating bread nor drinking wine, and you say, '
He has a demon .'
The Son of Man came
eating and drinking, and you say, ‘Look
at
this
glutton
and drunkard ,
a friend of tax collectors and sinners! ’
The Son of Man has
come
eating and drinking, and you say, 'Behold,
a
gluttonous
man,
and a
drunkard ;
a friend of tax collectors and sinners! '
But
wisdom is vindicated
by all her children. ”
Wisdom is justified
by all her children. "

Then
she
kissed His feet and anointed them with the perfume
.
Standing
behind at his feet weeping, she began to wet his feet with her tears ,
and she
wiped
them with the
hair of
her
head,
kissed his feet ,

When the Pharisee who had invited Jesus
saw this
, he said to himself, “If
this man were a prophet, He
would know
who this
is
and what kind of woman is touching
Him —for
she is a sinner !”
Now
when the Pharisee who had invited him
saw it
, he said to himself, "
This man ,
if
he
were a prophet, would have
perceived
who and what kind of woman this
is who
touches
him ,
that
she is a sinner ."

had

then,
will love him more
? ”

Simon
replied
. “
You have judged correctly ,”
Jesus
said
.
Simon
answered,

I suppose, to
whom
he
forgave
the
most
. "
He
said
to
him,

You have judged correctly. "
And
turning toward

Do you see this woman? When
I entered your house, you did
not
give
Me water for My feet, but she wet My feet with her tears and wiped them with her
hair.
Turning to
the woman, he said to Simon, "
Do you see this woman? I entered into
your house, and
you gave
me no
water for my feet, but she has
wet my feet with her tears ,
and wiped them with the
hair of
her
head
.
You did
not
greet
Me with
a
kiss, but she has not stopped
kissing
My feet since
I
arrived
.
You gave
me no
kiss, but she ,
since
the
time
I
came
in,
has not ceased
to
kiss
my feet.
You did
not
anoint My head with oil, but she has anointed My feet with perfume
.
You didn't
anoint my head with oil, but she has anointed my feet with ointment

her many
sins have
been
forgiven, she has
loved much. But he
who
has
been
forgiven
little loves little. ”

which
are

Who is this who even forgives sins? ”
