| 5:1 | And it came to pass, in the multitude pressing on him to hear the word of God, that he was standing beside the lake of Gennesaret, |
| 5:2 | and he saw two boats standing beside the lake, and the fishers, having gone away from them, were washing the nets, |
| 5:3 | and having entered into one of the boats, that was Simon's, he asked him to put back a little from the land, and having sat down, was teaching the multitudes out of the boat. |
| 5:4 | And when he left off speaking, he said unto Simon, `Put back to the deep, and let down your nets for a draught;' |
| 5:5 | and Simon answering said to him, `Master, through the whole night, having laboured, we have taken nothing, but at thy saying I will let down the net.' |
| 5:6 | And having done this, they enclosed a great multitude of fishes, and their net was breaking, |
| 5:7 | and they beckoned to the partners, who `are' in the other boat, having come, to help them; and they came, and filled both the boats, so that they were sinking. |
| 5:8 | And Simon Peter having seen, fell down at the knees of Jesus, saying, `Depart from me, because I am a sinful man, O lord;' |
| 5:9 | for astonishment seized him, and all those with him, at the draught of the fishes that they took, |
| 5:10 | and in like manner also James and John, sons of Zebedee, who were partners with Simon; and Jesus said unto Simon, `Fear not, henceforth thou shalt be catching men;' |
| 5:11 | and they, having brought the boats upon the land, having left all, did follow him. |
| 5:12 | And it came to pass, in his being in one of the cities, that lo, a man full of leprosy, and having seen Jesus, having fallen on `his' face, he besought him, saying, `Sir, if thou mayest will, thou art able to cleanse me;' |
| 5:13 | and having stretched forth `his' hand, he touched him, having said, `I will; be thou cleansed;' and immediately the leprosy went away from him. |
| 5:14 | And he charged him to tell no one, `But, having gone away, shew thyself to the priest, and bring near for thy cleansing according as Moses directed, for a testimony to them;' |
| 5:15 | but the more was the report going abroad concerning him, and great multitudes were coming together to hear, and to be healed by him of their infirmities, |
| 5:16 | and he was withdrawing himself in the desert places and was praying. |
| 5:17 | And it came to pass, on one of the days, that he was teaching, and there were sitting by Pharisees and teachers of the Law, who were come out of every village of Galilee, and Judea, and Jerusalem, and the power of the Lord was -- to heal them. |
| 5:18 | And lo, men bearing upon a couch a man, who hath been struck with palsy, and they were seeking to bring him in, and to place before him, |
| 5:19 | and not having found by what way they may bring him in because of the multitude, having gone up on the house-top, through the tiles they let him down, with the little couch, into the midst before Jesus, |
| 5:20 | and he having seen their faith, said to him, `Man, thy sins have been forgiven thee.' |
| 5:21 | And the scribes and the Pharisees began to reason, saying, `Who is this that doth speak evil words? who is able to forgive sins, except God only?' |
| 5:22 | And Jesus having known their reasonings, answering, said unto them, `What reason ye in your hearts? |
| 5:23 | which is easier -- to say, Thy sins have been forgiven thee? or to say, Arise, and walk? |
| 5:24 | `And that ye may know that the Son of Man hath authority upon the earth to forgive sins -- (he said to the one struck with palsy) -- I say to thee, Arise, and having taken up thy little couch, be going on to thy house.' |
| 5:25 | And presently having risen before them, having taken up `that' on which he was lying, he went away to his house, glorifying God, |
| 5:26 | and astonishment took all, and they were glorifying God, and were filled with fear, saying -- `We saw strange things to-day.' |
| 5:27 | And after these things he went forth, and beheld a tax-gatherer, by name Levi, sitting at the tax-office, and said to him, `Be following me;' |
| 5:28 | and he, having left all, having arisen, did follow him. |
| 5:29 | And Levi made a great entertainment to him in his house, and there was a great multitude of tax-gatherers and others who were with them reclining (at meat), |
| 5:30 | and the scribes and the Pharisees among them were murmuring at his disciples, saying, `Wherefore with tax-gatherers and sinners do ye eat and drink?' |
| 5:31 | And Jesus answering said unto them, `They who are well have no need of a physician, but they that are ill: |
| 5:32 | I came not to call righteous men, but sinners, to reformation.' |
| 5:33 | And they said unto him, `Wherefore do the disciples of John fast often, and make supplications -- in like manner also those of the Pharisees -- but thine do eat and drink?' |
| 5:34 | And he said unto them, `Are ye able to make the sons of the bride-chamber -- in the bridegroom being with them -- to fast? |
| 5:35 | but days will come, and, when the bridegroom may be taken away from them, then they shall fast in those days.' |
| 5:36 | And he spake also a simile unto them -- `No one a patch of new clothing doth put on old clothing, and if otherwise, the new also doth make a rent, and with the old the patch doth not agree, that `is' from the new. |
| 5:37 | `And no one doth put new wine into old skins, and if otherwise, the new wine will burst the skins, and itself will be poured out, and the skins will be destroyed; |
| 5:38 | but new wine into new skins is to be put, and both are preserved together; |
| 5:39 | and no one having drunk old `wine', doth immediately wish new, for he saith, The old is better.' |
| 5:1 | And it came to pass, that, as the people pressed upon him to hear the word of God, he stood by the lake of Gennesaret, |
| 5:2 | And saw two ships standing by the lake: but the fishermen were gone out of them, and were washing their nets. |
| 5:3 | And he entered into one of the ships, which was Simon's, and prayed him that he would thrust out a little from the land. And he sat down, and taught the people out of the ship. |
| 5:4 | Now when he had left speaking, he said unto Simon, Launch out into the deep, and let down your nets for a draught. |
| 5:5 | And Simon answering said unto him, Master, we have toiled all the night, and have taken nothing: nevertheless at thy word I will let down the net. |
| 5:6 | And when they had this done, they inclosed a great multitude of fishes: and their net brake. |
| 5:7 | And they beckoned unto their partners, which were in the other ship, that they should come and help them. And they came, and filled both the ships, so that they began to sink. |
| 5:8 | When Simon Peter saw it, he fell down at Jesus' knees, saying, Depart from me; for I am a sinful man, O Lord. |
| 5:9 | For he was astonished, and all that were with him, at the draught of the fishes which they had taken: |
| 5:10 | And so was also James, and John, the sons of Zebedee, which were partners with Simon. And Jesus said unto Simon, Fear not; from henceforth thou shalt catch men. |
| 5:11 | And when they had brought their ships to land, they forsook all, and followed him. |
| 5:12 | And it came to pass, when he was in a certain city, behold a man full of leprosy: who seeing Jesus fell on his face, and besought him, saying, Lord, if thou wilt, thou canst make me clean. |
| 5:13 | And he put forth his hand, and touched him, saying, I will: be thou clean. And immediately the leprosy departed from him. |
| 5:14 | And he charged him to tell no man: but go, and shew thyself to the priest, and offer for thy cleansing, according as Moses commanded, for a testimony unto them. |
| 5:15 | But so much the more went there a fame abroad of him: and great multitudes came together to hear, and to be healed by him of their infirmities. |
| 5:16 | And he withdrew himself into the wilderness, and prayed. |
| 5:17 | And it came to pass on a certain day, as he was teaching, that there were Pharisees and doctors of the law sitting by, which were come out of every town of Galilee, and Judaea, and Jerusalem: and the power of the Lord was present to heal them. |
| 5:18 | And, behold, men brought in a bed a man which was taken with a palsy: and they sought means to bring him in, and to lay him before him. |
| 5:19 | And when they could not find by what way they might bring him in because of the multitude, they went upon the housetop, and let him down through the tiling with his couch into the midst before Jesus. |
| 5:20 | And when he saw their faith, he said unto him, Man, thy sins are forgiven thee. |
| 5:21 | And the scribes and the Pharisees began to reason, saying, Who is this which speaketh blasphemies? Who can forgive sins, but God alone? |
| 5:22 | But when Jesus perceived their thoughts, he answering said unto them, What reason ye in your hearts? |
| 5:23 | Whether is easier, to say, Thy sins be forgiven thee; or to say, Rise up and walk? |
| 5:24 | But that ye may know that the Son of man hath power upon earth to forgive sins, (he said unto the sick of the palsy,) I say unto thee, Arise, and take up thy couch, and go into thine house. |
| 5:25 | And immediately he rose up before them, and took up that whereon he lay, and departed to his own house, glorifying God. |
| 5:26 | And they were all amazed, and they glorified God, and were filled with fear, saying, We have seen strange things to day. |
| 5:27 | And after these things he went forth, and saw a publican, named Levi, sitting at the receipt of custom: and he said unto him, Follow me. |
| 5:28 | And he left all, rose up, and followed him. |
| 5:29 | And Levi made him a great feast in his own house: and there was a great company of publicans and of others that sat down with them. |
| 5:30 | But their scribes and Pharisees murmured against his disciples, saying, Why do ye eat and drink with publicans and sinners? |
| 5:31 | And Jesus answering said unto them, They that are whole need not a physician; but they that are sick. |
| 5:32 | I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance. |
| 5:33 | And they said unto him, Why do the disciples of John fast often, and make prayers, and likewise the disciples of the Pharisees; but thine eat and drink? |
| 5:34 | And he said unto them, Can ye make the children of the bridechamber fast, while the bridegroom is with them? |
| 5:35 | But the days will come, when the bridegroom shall be taken away from them, and then shall they fast in those days. |
| 5:36 | And he spake also a parable unto them; No man putteth a piece of a new garment upon an old; if otherwise, then both the new maketh a rent, and the piece that was taken out of the new agreeth not with the old. |
| 5:37 | And no man putteth new wine into old bottles; else the new wine will burst the bottles, and be spilled, and the bottles shall perish. |
| 5:38 | But new wine must be put into new bottles; and both are preserved. |
| 5:39 | No man also having drunk old wine straightway desireth new: for he saith, The old is better. |
| 5:1 | And it happened that the crowd was pressing on Him to hear the Word of God. And He was standing by Lake Gennesaret. |
| 5:2 | And He saw two boats standing by the lake, but the fishermen had left them and were washing the nets. |
| 5:3 | And entering into one of the boats, which was Simon's, He asked him to put out a little from the land. And sitting down, He taught the crowd from the boat. |
| 5:4 | And as He quit speaking, He said to Simon, Put out into the deep and let down your nets for a haul. |
| 5:5 | And answering, Simon said to Him, Master, laboring all through the night we took nothing. But at Your word I will let down the net. |
| 5:6 | And doing this, they netted a great multitude of fish; and their net was being torn. |
| 5:7 | And they signaled the partners, those in the other boat, to come and help them. And they came and filled both the boats, so that they were sinking. |
| 5:8 | And seeing, Simon Peter fell at the knees of Jesus, saying, Depart from me, for I am a sinful man, Lord. |
| 5:9 | For astonishment took hold of him, and all those with him, at the haul of fish which they took; |
| 5:10 | and in the same way also, James and John, the sons of Zebedee, who were partners with Simon. And Jesus said to Simon, Do not fear. From now on you will be taking men alive. |
| 5:11 | And bringing the boats down onto the land, forsaking all things, they followed Him. |
| 5:12 | And it happened, in His being in one of the cities, even behold, a man full of leprosy! And seeing Jesus, falling on his face, he begged Him, saying, Lord, if You choose, You are able to cleanse me. |
| 5:13 | And stretching out the hand, He touched him, saying, I will! Be cleansed! And instantly the leprosy departed from him. |
| 5:14 | And He charged him to tell no one. But going away, show yourself to the priest and offer concerning your cleansing, as Moses commanded, for a testimony to them. |
| 5:15 | But the word about Him spread even more. And large crowds were coming to hear and to be healed from their infirmities by Him. |
| 5:16 | But He was drawing back in a deserted place , and praying. |
| 5:17 | And it happened on one of the days, even He was teaching. And Pharisees and teachers of the Law were sitting by, who were coming out of every village of Galilee and Judea, and Jerusalem. And the power of the Lord was there, for the curing of them. |
| 5:18 | And, behold, men carrying on a cot a man who was paralyzed. And they sought to bring him in, and to lay him before Him. |
| 5:19 | And not finding a way through which they might bring him in through the crowd, going up on the housetop, they let him down through the tiles with the cot, into the midst, in front of Jesus. |
| 5:20 | And seeing their faith, He said to him, Man, your sins have been forgiven you. |
| 5:21 | And the scribes and Pharisees began to reason, saying, Who is this who speaks blasphemies? Who is able to forgive sins except God alone? |
| 5:22 | But knowing their thoughts, answering Jesus said to them, Why do you reason in your hearts? |
| 5:23 | Which is easier, to say, Your sins have been forgiven you, or to say, Rise up and walk? |
| 5:24 | But that you may know that the Son of man has authority on the earth to forgive sins, He said to the paralytic, I say to you, Rise up, and take your cot and go to your house. |
| 5:25 | And rising up at once before them, taking up that on which he was lying, he went to his house glorifying God. |
| 5:26 | And amazement seized all, and they glorified God, and were filled with fear, saying, We saw wonderful things today. |
| 5:27 | And after these things, He went out and saw a tax collector named Levi, sitting at the tax office. And He said to him, Follow Me! |
| 5:28 | And leaving all, rising up he followed Him. |
| 5:29 | And Levi made a great feast for Him in his house. And there was a crowd of many tax collectors reclining, and of others who were with them. |
| 5:30 | And their scribes and the Pharisees murmured at His disciples, saying, Why do you eat and drink with tax collectors and sinners? |
| 5:31 | And answering, Jesus said to them, Those who are sound have no need of a physician, but those who have illness. |
| 5:32 | I did not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance. |
| 5:33 | But they said to Him, Why do John's disciples fast often, and make prayers, and likewise those of the Pharisees, but those close to You eat and drink? |
| 5:34 | But He said to them, You are not able to make the sons of the bridechamber fast while the bridegroom is with them. |
| 5:35 | But days will come, even when the bridegroom is taken away from them, then in those days they will fast. |
| 5:36 | And He also told a parable to them: No one puts a piece of a new garment on an old garment; otherwise both the new will tear, and the old does not match the piece from the new. |
| 5:37 | And no one puts new wine into old skins; otherwise, the new wine will burst the skins, and it will be poured out, and the skins will perish. |
| 5:38 | But new wine is to be put into new skins, and both are preserved together. |
| 5:39 | And no one drinking old wine immediately desires new; for he says, The old is better. |
