Berean Standard Bible
And
again
he
entered
into
Capernaum,
after
`some'
days ,
and it
was
heard that he is
in
the
house
,
A
few
days later
Jesus
went
back
to
Capernaum.
And when
the
people
heard that He was
home
,
and
immediately
many
were
gathered together,
so
that there was no more room, not even at
the door, and
he
was
speaking
to
them
the word.
they
gathered in
such
large
numbers
that there was no more room, not even outside
the door, as
Jesus
spoke
the word to
them
.
And
they
come
unto
him,
bringing
a paralytic, borne
by four ,
Then
a paralytic was
brought
to
Him
, carried
by four men.
and
not
being
able
to come
near
to him
because
of
the multitude
, they uncovered the roof where
he
was,
and
, having
broken
`it'
up
, they
let
down
the
couch
on
which
the paralytic was
lying,
Since
they
were
unable
to get
to Jesus
through
the crowd
, they uncovered the roof above
Him
, made
an
opening
, and
lowered
the paralytic on
his
mat.
and
Jesus having
seen
their faith, saith
to the paralytic, `Child
, thy
sins have
been
forgiven thee
. '
When
Jesus saw
their faith, He
said
to the paralytic, “Son
, your
sins are
forgiven. ”
And
there
were
certain
of the scribes there
sitting ,
and reasoning
in their hearts,
But
some
of the scribes were
sitting there
and thinking
in their hearts,
`
Why doth
this one
thus
speak evil
words
? who
is able
to
forgive sins except
one
--
God? '
“
Why does
this man
speak like
this
? He
is blaspheming!
Who
can
forgive sins but
God alone
? ”
And
immediately
Jesus ,
having
known
in his spirit that they thus
reason
in
themselves ,
said
to
them,
`
Why these things reason
ye
in your hearts?
At
once
Jesus knew
in His spirit that they were
thinking
this
way
within
themselves .
“
Why are
you
thinking
these things in your hearts? ”
He
asked.
which is easier ,
to say to the
paralytic, The
sins have
been
forgiven to
thee?
or to say, Rise
, and
take
up thy
couch
, and walk?
“
Which is easier :
to say to a
paralytic, ‘Your
sins are
forgiven ,’
or to say, ‘Get
up
, pick
up your
mat
, and walk ’
?
`And,
that ye
may know that the Son of Man hath
authority on the
earth to forgive sins --
(
he saith
to the paralytic )
--
But
so
that you
may know that the Son of Man has
authority on earth to forgive sins ...”
He said
to the paralytic ,
I say
to
thee
, Rise
, and
take
up thy
couch
, and go away
to
thy
house;'
“
I tell
you
, get
up
, pick
up your
mat
, and go home.”
and he
rose
immediately, and
having
taken
up the
couch
, he
went
forth
before
all, so
that
all
were astonished,
and do
glorify
God, saying --
`Never
thus
did
we see.'
And immediately the
man
got
up
, picked
up his
mat
, and
walked
out
in
front
of
them
all .
As
a
result
, they
were all
astounded
and glorified
God, saying ,
“
We have
never
seen
anything
like
this!”
And
he
went
forth
again by
the sea ,
and
all the multitude
was
coming
unto
him, and he was
teaching
them ,
Once
again Jesus
went
out
beside
the sea .
All the people
came
to
Him, and He taught
them there.
and
passing
by
, he saw Levi of Alpheus
sitting at the tax -office,
and
saith
to
him,
`Be
following
me, '
and
he ,
having
risen
, did
follow
him.
As
He
was
walking
along
, He saw Levi son
of Alphaeus
sitting at the tax booth.
“Follow
Me, ”
He told
him
, and
Levi
got
up
and
followed
Him.
And
it
came
to
pass,
in
his
reclining
(
at meat)
in
his
house, that
many tax -gatherers
and sinners were reclining
(at
meat)
with Jesus
and his disciples ,
for there were many ,
and
they
followed him.
While
Jesus
was
dining
at Levi’s
house, many tax collectors
and sinners were eating
with Him
and His disciples —
for there were many who
followed Him.
And
the scribes and
the
Pharisees ,
having
seen
him
eating with the
tax-gatherers
and
sinners
, said
to
his disciples, `
Why --
that
with the
tax -gatherers
and sinners he
doth
eat
and
drink
? '
When
the scribes who
were
Pharisees saw
Jesus
eating with these
people
, they
asked
His disciples, “
Why does
He
eat
with tax collectors
and sinners? ”
And
Jesus,
having
heard
, saith
to
them, `They
who are
strong
have
no
need of
a physician
, but they
who
are
ill;
I came
not to call righteous men
, but sinners to
reformation
. '
On
hearing
this
, Jesus
told
them, “It
is
not
the
healthy
who need a doctor
, but the
sick.
I have
not come
to call the
righteous, but sinners. ”
And
the
disciples of
John
and those
of
the Pharisees were fasting ,
and
they
come
and
say
to him
, `Wherefore
do
the
disciples of
John
and those of the Pharisees fast,
and
thy
disciples
do
not
fast
? '
Now
John’s
disciples and the Pharisees were often
fasting .
So
people
came
to Jesus
and
asked
, “Why
don’t
Your
disciples fast
like
John’s
disciples
and those of the Pharisees? ”
And
Jesus said
to
them
, `Are
the sons
of the bride-chamber
able,
while
the
bridegroom is with them ,
to
fast
? so
long time
as they
have
the
bridegroom
with them they are
not
able
to
fast ;
Jesus replied
, “How
can
the guests
of the bridegroom fast
while
He
is with them? As
long as He
is
with them ,
they cannot
fast .
but days
shall
come when the bridegroom may
be taken from them ,
and
then they shall
fast --
in
those
days
.
But the
time
will
come when the bridegroom will
be taken from them ;
then they will
fast.
`And
no one a patch of undressed
cloth doth
sew
on an old garment ,
and
if not
--
the new filling
it
up
doth
take
from the old and the
rent
doth
become
worse ;
No one sews
a patch of unshrunk
cloth on an old garment .
If he
does,
the new piece
will
pull
away
from the old ,
and a
worse tear
will
result.
and no one doth
put
new wine into old skins,
and
if not
--
the new
wine doth
burst the skins, and the wine is
poured
out,
and the skins
will be destroyed;
but
new wine into new skins
is
to
be
put
. '
And no one pours
new wine into old wineskins.
If he
does,
the wine will
burst the skins, and both
the wine and the wineskins
will be ruined.
Instead,
new wine is
poured
into new wineskins
. ”
And
it
came
to
pass
--
he
is
going
along
on
the
sabbaths
through the corn-fields
--
and his disciples began to make
a
way,
plucking
the ears,
One
Sabbath
Jesus
was
passing
through the grainfields,
and His disciples began to pick
the heads
of
grain
as
they
walked
along.
and
the Pharisees said to him, `Lo
, why do
they on the sabbaths
that
which
is
not
lawful
? '
So
the Pharisees said to Him, “Look
, why are
they doing
what
is
unlawful
on the Sabbath
? ”
And
he
said
to
them
, `Did
ye
never read what David did ,
when he had
need
and was
hungry ,
he
and those
with
him
?
Jesus
replied
, “Have
you
never read what David did when he and his
companions
were
hungry and in
need
?
how
he
went
into
the house
of God,
(at
`
Abiathar the
chief
priest
, ')
and
the loaves
of the presentation
did
eat
, which it
is
not
lawful to
eat,
except
to
the priests ,
and he gave also
to those
who
were
with
him?'
During
the high
priesthood
of Abiathar, he
entered
the house
of God
and
ate
the consecrated
bread
, which was
lawful only
for
the priests .
And he gave some
to his
companions
as
well.”
And
he
said
to
them
, `
The sabbath for
man
was made, not man for the sabbath ,
Then
Jesus
declared
, “
The Sabbath was made for
man
, not man for the Sabbath .
so
that
the son of man is lord also
of the sabbath. '
Therefore,
the Son of Man is Lord even
of the Sabbath. ”
