| 7:1 | And when he completed all his sayings in the ears of the people, he went into Capernaum; |
| 7:2 | and a certain centurion's servant being ill, was about to die, who was much valued by him, |
| 7:3 | and having heard about Jesus, he sent unto him elders of the Jews, beseeching him, that having come he might thoroughly save his servant. |
| 7:4 | And they, having come near unto Jesus, were calling upon him earnestly, saying -- `He is worthy to whom thou shalt do this, |
| 7:5 | for he doth love our nation, and the synagogue he did build to us.' |
| 7:6 | And Jesus was going on with them, and now when he is not far distant from the house the centurion sent unto him friends, saying to him, `Sir, be not troubled, for I am not worthy that under my roof thou mayest enter; |
| 7:7 | wherefore not even myself thought I worthy to come unto thee, but say in a word, and my lad shall be healed; |
| 7:8 | for I also am a man placed under authority, having under myself soldiers, and I say to this `one', Go, and he goeth; and to another, Be coming, and he cometh; and to my servant, Do this, and he doth `it'.' |
| 7:9 | And having heard these things Jesus wondered at him, and having turned to the multitude following him, he said, `I say to you, not even in Israel so much faith did I find;' |
| 7:10 | and those sent, having turned back to the house, found the ailing servant in health. |
| 7:11 | And it came to pass, on the morrow, he was going on to a city called Nain, and there were going with him many of his disciples, and a great multitude, |
| 7:12 | and as he came nigh to the gate of the city, then, lo, one dead was being carried forth, an only son of his mother, and she a widow, and a great multitude of the city was with her. |
| 7:13 | And the Lord having seen her, was moved with compassion towards her, and said to her, `Be not weeping;' |
| 7:14 | and having come near, he touched the bier, and those bearing `it' stood still, and he said, `Young man, to thee I say, Arise;' |
| 7:15 | and the dead sat up, and began to speak, and he gave him to his mother; |
| 7:16 | and fear took hold of all, and they were glorifying God, saying -- `A great prophet hath risen among us,' and -- `God did look upon His people.' |
| 7:17 | And the account of this went forth in all Judea about him, and in all the region around. |
| 7:18 | And the disciples of John told him about all these things, |
| 7:19 | and John having called near a certain two of his disciples, sent unto Jesus, saying, `Art thou he who is coming, or for another do we look?' |
| 7:20 | And having come near to him, the men said, `John the Baptist sent us unto thee, saying, Art thou he who is coming, or for another do we look?' |
| 7:21 | And in that hour he cured many from sicknesses, and plagues, and evil spirits, and to many blind he granted sight. |
| 7:22 | And Jesus answering said to them, `Having gone on, report to John what ye saw and heard, that blind men do see again, lame do walk, lepers are cleansed, deaf do hear, dead are raised, poor have good news proclaimed; |
| 7:23 | and happy is he whoever may not be stumbled in me.' |
| 7:24 | And the messengers of John having gone away, he began to say unto the multitudes concerning John: `What have ye gone forth to the wilderness to look on? a reed by the wind shaken? |
| 7:25 | but what have ye gone forth to see? a man in soft garments clothed? lo, they in splendid apparellings, and living in luxury, are in the houses of kings! |
| 7:26 | `But what have ye gone forth to see? a prophet? Yes, I say to you, and much more than a prophet: |
| 7:27 | this is he concerning whom it hath been written, Lo, I send my messenger before thy face, who shall prepare thy way before thee; |
| 7:28 | for I say to you, a greater prophet, among those born of women, than John the Baptist there is not; but the least in the reign of God is greater than he.' |
| 7:29 | And all the people having heard, and the tax-gatherers, declared God righteous, having been baptized with the baptism of John, |
| 7:30 | but the Pharisees, and the lawyers, the counsel of God did put away for themselves, not having been baptized by him. |
| 7:31 | And the Lord said, `To what, then, shall I liken the men of this generation? and to what are they like? |
| 7:32 | they are like to children, to those sitting in a market-place, and calling one to another, and saying, We piped to you, and ye did not dance, we mourned to you, and ye did not weep! |
| 7:33 | `For John the Baptist came neither eating bread nor drinking wine, and ye say, He hath a demon; |
| 7:34 | the Son of Man came eating and drinking, and ye say, Lo, a man, a glutton, and a wine drinker, a friend of tax-gatherers and sinners; |
| 7:35 | and the wisdom was justified from all her children.' |
| 7:36 | And a certain one of the Pharisees was asking him that he might eat with him, and having gone into the house of the Pharisee he reclined (at meat), |
| 7:37 | and lo, a woman in the city, who was a sinner, having known that he reclineth (at meat) in the house of the Pharisee, having provided an alabaster box of ointment, |
| 7:38 | and having stood behind, beside his feet, weeping, she began to wet his feet with the tears, and with the hairs of her head she was wiping, and was kissing his feet, and was anointing with the ointment. |
| 7:39 | And the Pharisee who did call him, having seen, spake within himself, saying, `This one, if he were a prophet, would have known who and of what kind `is' the woman who doth touch him, that she is a sinner.' |
| 7:40 | And Jesus answering said unto him, `Simon, I have something to say to thee;' and he saith, `Teacher, say on.' |
| 7:41 | `Two debtors were to a certain creditor; the one was owing five hundred denaries, and the other fifty; |
| 7:42 | and they not having `wherewith' to give back, he forgave both; which then of them, say thou, will love him more?' |
| 7:43 | And Simon answering said, `I suppose that to whom he forgave the more;' and he said to him, `Rightly thou didst judge.' |
| 7:44 | And having turned unto the woman, he said to Simon, `Seest thou this woman? I entered into thy house; water for my feet thou didst not give, but this woman with tears did wet my feet, and with the hairs of her head did wipe; |
| 7:45 | a kiss to me thou didst not give, but this woman, from what `time' I came in, did not cease kissing my feet; |
| 7:46 | with oil my head thou didst not anoint, but this woman with ointment did anoint my feet; |
| 7:47 | therefore I say to thee, her many sins have been forgiven, because she did love much; but to whom little is forgiven, little he doth love.' |
| 7:48 | And he said to her, `Thy sins have been forgiven;' |
| 7:49 | and those reclining with him (at meat) began to say within themselves, `Who is this, who also doth forgive sins?' |
| 7:50 | and he said unto the woman, `Thy faith have saved thee, be going on to peace.' |
| 7:1 | Now when he had ended all his sayings in the audience of the people, he entered into Capernaum. |
| 7:2 | And a certain centurion's servant, who was dear unto him, was sick, and ready to die. |
| 7:3 | And when he heard of Jesus, he sent unto him the elders of the Jews, beseeching him that he would come and heal his servant. |
| 7:4 | And when they came to Jesus, they besought him instantly, saying, That he was worthy for whom he should do this: |
| 7:5 | For he loveth our nation, and he hath built us a synagogue. |
| 7:6 | Then Jesus went with them. And when he was now not far from the house, the centurion sent friends to him, saying unto him, Lord, trouble not thyself: for I am not worthy that thou shouldest enter under my roof: |
| 7:7 | Wherefore neither thought I myself worthy to come unto thee: but say in a word, and my servant shall be healed. |
| 7:8 | For I also am a man set under authority, having under me soldiers, and I say unto one, Go, and he goeth; and to another, Come, and he cometh; and to my servant, Do this, and he doeth it. |
| 7:9 | When Jesus heard these things, he marvelled at him, and turned him about, and said unto the people that followed him, I say unto you, I have not found so great faith, no, not in Israel. |
| 7:10 | And they that were sent, returning to the house, found the servant whole that had been sick. |
| 7:11 | And it came to pass the day after, that he went into a city called Nain; and many of his disciples went with him, and much people. |
| 7:12 | Now when he came nigh to the gate of the city, behold, there was a dead man carried out, the only son of his mother, and she was a widow: and much people of the city was with her. |
| 7:13 | And when the Lord saw her, he had compassion on her, and said unto her, Weep not. |
| 7:14 | And he came and touched the bier: and they that bare him stood still. And he said, Young man, I say unto thee, Arise. |
| 7:15 | And he that was dead sat up, and began to speak. And he delivered him to his mother. |
| 7:16 | And there came a fear on all: and they glorified God, saying, That a great prophet is risen up among us; and, That God hath visited his people. |
| 7:17 | And this rumour of him went forth throughout all Judaea, and throughout all the region round about. |
| 7:18 | And the disciples of John shewed him of all these things. |
| 7:19 | And John calling unto him two of his disciples sent them to Jesus, saying, Art thou he that should come? or look we for another? |
| 7:20 | When the men were come unto him, they said, John Baptist hath sent us unto thee, saying, Art thou he that should come? or look we for another? |
| 7:21 | And in that same hour he cured many of their infirmities and plagues, and of evil spirits; and unto many that were blind he gave sight. |
| 7:22 | Then Jesus answering said unto them, Go your way, and tell John what things ye have seen and heard; how that the blind see, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, to the poor the gospel is preached. |
| 7:23 | And blessed is he, whosoever shall not be offended in me. |
| 7:24 | And when the messengers of John were departed, he began to speak unto the people concerning John, What went ye out into the wilderness for to see? A reed shaken with the wind? |
| 7:25 | But what went ye out for to see? A man clothed in soft raiment? Behold, they which are gorgeously apparelled, and live delicately, are in kings' courts. |
| 7:26 | But what went ye out for to see? A prophet? Yea, I say unto you, and much more than a prophet. |
| 7:27 | This is he, of whom it is written, Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, which shall prepare thy way before thee. |
| 7:28 | For I say unto you, Among those that are born of women there is not a greater prophet than John the Baptist: but he that is least in the kingdom of God is greater than he. |
| 7:29 | And all the people that heard him, and the publicans, justified God, being baptized with the baptism of John. |
| 7:30 | But the Pharisees and lawyers rejected the counsel of God against themselves, being not baptized of him. |
| 7:31 | And the Lord said, Whereunto then shall I liken the men of this generation? and to what are they like? |
| 7:32 | They are like unto children sitting in the marketplace, and calling one to another, and saying, We have piped unto you, and ye have not danced; we have mourned to you, and ye have not wept. |
| 7:33 | For John the Baptist came neither eating bread nor drinking wine; and ye say, He hath a devil. |
| 7:34 | The Son of man is come eating and drinking; and ye say, Behold a gluttonous man, and a winebibber, a friend of publicans and sinners! |
| 7:35 | But wisdom is justified of all her children. |
| 7:36 | And one of the Pharisees desired him that he would eat with him. And he went into the Pharisee's house, and sat down to meat. |
| 7:37 | And, behold, a woman in the city, which was a sinner, when she knew that Jesus sat at meat in the Pharisee's house, brought an alabaster box of ointment, |
| 7:38 | And stood at his feet behind him weeping, and began to wash his feet with tears, and did wipe them with the hairs of her head, and kissed his feet, and anointed them with the ointment. |
| 7:39 | Now when the Pharisee which had bidden him saw it, he spake within himself, saying, This man, if he were a prophet, would have known who and what manner of woman this is that toucheth him: for she is a sinner. |
| 7:40 | And Jesus answering said unto him, Simon, I have somewhat to say unto thee. And he saith, Master, say on. |
| 7:41 | There was a certain creditor which had two debtors: the one owed five hundred pence, and the other fifty. |
| 7:42 | And when they had nothing to pay, he frankly forgave them both. Tell me therefore, which of them will love him most? |
| 7:43 | Simon answered and said, I suppose that he, to whom he forgave most. And he said unto him, Thou hast rightly judged. |
| 7:44 | And he turned to the woman, and said unto Simon, Seest thou this woman? I entered into thine house, thou gavest me no water for my feet: but she hath washed my feet with tears, and wiped them with the hairs of her head. |
| 7:45 | Thou gavest me no kiss: but this woman since the time I came in hath not ceased to kiss my feet. |
| 7:46 | My head with oil thou didst not anoint: but this woman hath anointed my feet with ointment. |
| 7:47 | Wherefore I say unto thee, Her sins, which are many, are forgiven; for she loved much: but to whom little is forgiven, the same loveth little. |
| 7:48 | And he said unto her, Thy sins are forgiven. |
| 7:49 | And they that sat at meat with him began to say within themselves, Who is this that forgiveth sins also? |
| 7:50 | And he said to the woman, Thy faith hath saved thee; go in peace. |
| 7:1 | And when He had completed all His words in the ears of the people, He went into Capernaum. |
| 7:2 | And a certain slave of a centurion, one dear to him, having illness, was about to expire. |
| 7:3 | And hearing about Jesus, he sent elders of the Jews to Him, asking Him that He might come to restore his slave. |
| 7:4 | And coming to Jesus, they earnestly begged Him, saying, He to whom You give this is worthy. |
| 7:5 | For he loves our nation, and he built the synagogue for us. |
| 7:6 | And Jesus went with them. But He being yet not far away from the house, the centurion sent friends to Him, saying to Him, Lord, do not trouble, for I am not worthy that You come under my roof. |
| 7:7 | For this reason I did not count myself worthy to come to You. But say in a word, and let my servant be cured. |
| 7:8 | For I also am a man having been set under authority, having soldiers under myself. And I say to this one, Go! And he goes. And to another, Come! And he comes. And to my slave, Do this! And he does it . |
| 7:9 | And hearing these things, Jesus marveled at him. And turning to the crowd following Him, He said, I say to you, I did not find such faith in Israel. |
| 7:10 | And those sent, returning to the house, found the sick slave well. |
| 7:11 | And it happened on the next day, He went into a city being called Nain. And many of His disciples went with Him; also a great crowd. |
| 7:12 | And as He drew near to the gate of the city, even behold, one having died was being borne, an only son born to his mother; and she was a widow. And a considerable crowd of the city was with her. |
| 7:13 | And seeing her, the Lord felt pity over her and said to her, Stop weeping. |
| 7:14 | And coming up, He touched the coffin; and those carrying it stood still. And He said, Young man, I say to you, Arise! |
| 7:15 | And the dead one sat up and began to speak. And He gave him to his mother. |
| 7:16 | And fear took hold of all; and they glorified God, saying, A great prophet has risen up among us; and, God has visited His people. |
| 7:17 | And this word about Him went out in all Judea, and in all the neighborhood. |
| 7:18 | And His disciples reported to John about all these things. |
| 7:19 | And having called near a certain two of his disciples, John sent to Jesus, saying, Are You the One coming? Or should we expect another? |
| 7:20 | And having come to Him, the men said, John the Baptist sent us to You, saying, Are You the One coming, or should we expect another? |
| 7:21 | And in the same hour He healed many from diseases and plagues and evil spirits. And He gave to many blind ones ability to see. |
| 7:22 | And answering, Jesus said to them, Going, report to John what you saw and heard: "Blind ones see again;" "lame ones walk about;" "lepers are being cleansed; "deaf ones hear;" dead ones are raised; poor ones are given the gospel. Isa. 35:5, 6; 61:1 |
| 7:23 | And blessed is he who is not offended in Me. |
| 7:24 | And John's messengers going away, He began to speak to the crowds about John: What did you go out to the wilderness to see? A reed being shaken by the wind? |
| 7:25 | But what did you go out to see? A man who had been dressed in soft clothing? Behold, those in splendid clothing and being in luxury are in king's palaces. |
| 7:26 | But what did you go out to see? A prophet? Yes, I say to you, even more than a prophet. |
| 7:27 | This is he about whom it has been written: "Behold, I send My messenger" before Your face, who "will prepare Your way before You." Mal. 3:1 |
| 7:28 | For I say to you, Among those born of a woman, no prophet is greater than John the Baptist. But the least one in the kingdom of God is greater than he is. |
| 7:29 | And all the people and the tax collectors hearing, they justified God, being baptized with the baptism of John. |
| 7:30 | But the Pharisees and the lawyers set aside God's counsel as to themselves, not being baptized by him. |
| 7:31 | And the Lord said, Then to what shall I compare the men of this generation? And to what are they like? |
| 7:32 | They are like children sitting in a market and calling to one another, and saying, We piped to you, and you did not dance; we mourned to you, and you did not weep. |
| 7:33 | For John the Baptist has come neither eating bread nor drinking wine, and you say, He has a demon. |
| 7:34 | The Son of man has come eating and drinking, and you say, Behold, a man, a glutton and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners. |
| 7:35 | But wisdom was justified from all her children. |
| 7:36 | And a certain one of the Pharisees asked Him that He eat with him. And going into the Pharisee's house, He reclined. |
| 7:37 | And, behold, a woman who was a sinner in the city, knowing that He reclined in the Pharisee's house, taking an alabaster vial of ointment, |
| 7:38 | and standing at His feet, weeping behind Him , she began to wash His feet with tears. And she was wiping with the hairs of her head. And she ardently kissed His feet and was anointing them with the ointment. |
| 7:39 | But seeing, the Pharisee who invited Him spoke within himself, saying, This one, if he were a prophet, would have known who and what the woman who touches him is ; for she is a sinner. |
| 7:40 | And answering, Jesus said to the man, Simon, I have a thing to say to you. And he said, Teacher, say it . |
| 7:41 | There were two debtors to a certain creditor: the one owed five hundred denarii and the other fifty. |
| 7:42 | But they not having a thing to pay, he freely forgave both. Then which of them do you say will love him most? |
| 7:43 | And answering, Simon said, I suppose the one to whom he freely forgave the most. And He said to him, You have judged rightly. |
| 7:44 | And turning to the woman, He said to Simon, Do you see this woman? I came into your house. You did not give water for My feet, but she washed My feet with tears and wiped off with the hairs of her head. |
| 7:45 | You gave Me no kiss, but she from when I entered did not stop fervently kissing My feet. |
| 7:46 | You did not anoint My head with oil, but she anointed My feet with ointment. |
| 7:47 | For this reason I say to you, her many sins are forgiven, for she loved much. But to whom little is forgiven, he loves little. |
| 7:48 | And He said to her, Your sins are forgiven. |
| 7:49 | And those reclining with Him began to say within themselves, Who is this who even forgives sins? |
| 7:50 | But He said to the woman, Your faith has saved you. Go in peace. |
