Luke 7
1 When Jesus had concluded His discourse in the hearing of the people, He went to Capernaum.
Cum autem implesset omnia verba sua in aures plebis, intravit Capharnaum.
2 There a highly valued servant of a centurion was sick and about to die.
Centurionis autem cuiusdam servus male habens, erat moriturus: qui illi erat pretiosus.
3 When the centurion heard about Jesus, he sent some Jewish elders to ask Him to come and heal his servant.
Et cum audisset de Iesu, misit ad eum seniores Iudaeorum, rogans eum ut veniret, et sanaret servum eius.
4 They came to Jesus and pleaded with Him earnestly, “This man is worthy to have You grant this,
At illi cum venissent ad Iesum, rogabant eum solicite, dicentes ei: Quia dignus est ut hoc illi praestes.
5 for he loves our nation and has built our synagogue.”
diligit enim gentem nostram: et synagogam ipse aedificavit nobis.
6 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.
Iesus autem ibat cum illis. Et cum iam non longe esset a domo, misit ad eum Centurio amicos, dicens: Domine noli vexari: Non enim sum dignus ut sub tectum meum intres.
7 That is why I did not consider myself worthy to come to You. But just say the word, and my servant will be healed.
propter quod et meipsum non sum dignum arbitratus ut venirem ad te: sed dic verbo, et sanabitur puer meus.
8 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.”
nam et ego homo sum sub potestate constitutus, habens sub me milites: et dico huic vade, et vadit: et alio veni, et venit: et servo meo, fac hoc, et facit.
9 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.”
Quo audito Iesus miratus est: et conversus sequentibus se turbis, dixit: Amen dico vobis, nec in Israel tantam fidem inveni.
10 And when the messengers returned to the house, they found the servant in good health.
Et reversi, qui missi fuerant domum, invenerunt servum, qui languerat, sanum.
11 Soon afterward, Jesus went to a town called Nain. His disciples went with Him, accompanied by a large crowd.
Et factum est: deinceps ibat Iesus in civitatem, quae vocatur Naim: et ibant cum eo discipuli eius, et turba copiosa.
12 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.
Cum autem appropinquaret portae civitatis, ecce defunctus efferebatur filius unicus matris suae: et haec vidua erat: et turba civitatis multa cum illa.
13 When the Lord saw her, He had compassion on her and said, “Do not weep.”
Quam cum vidisset Dominus, misericordia motus super eam, dixit illi: Noli flere.
14 Then He went up and touched the coffin, and those carrying it stood still. “Young man,” He said, “I tell you, get up!”
Et accessit, et tetigit loculum. (Hi autem, qui portabant, steterunt) Et ait: Adolescens, tibi dico, surge.
15 And the dead man sat up and began to speak! Then Jesus gave him back to his mother.
Et resedit qui erat mortuus, et coepit loqui. Et dedit illum matri suae.
16 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!”
Accepit autem omnes timor: et magnificabant Deum, dicentes: Quia propheta magnus surrexit in nobis: et quia Deus visitavit plebem suam.
17 And the news about Jesus spread throughout Judea and all the surrounding region.
Et exiit hic sermo in universam Iudaeam de eo, et in omnem circa regionem.
18 Then John’s disciples informed him about all these things.
Et nunciaverunt Ioanni discipuli eius de omnibus his.
19 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?”
Et convocavit duos de discipulis suis Ioannes, et misit ad Iesum, dicens: Tu es qui venturus es, an alium expectamus?
20 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?’”
Cum autem venissent ad eum viri, dixerunt: Ioannes Baptista misit nos ad te dicens: Tu es, qui venturus es, an alium expectamus?
21 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 ipsa autem hora multos curavit a languoribus, et plagis, et spiritibus malis, et caecis multis donavit visum.)
22 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.
Et respondens, dixit illis: Euntes renunciate Ioanni quae audistis, et vidistis: Quia caeci vident, claudi ambulant, leprosi mundantur, surdi audiunt, mortui resurgunt, pauperes evangelizantur:
23 Blessed is the one who does not fall away on account of Me.”
et beatus est quicumque non fuerit scandalizatus in me.
24 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?
Et cum discessissent nuncii Ioannis, coepit de Ioanne dicere ad turbas: Quid existis in desertum videre? arundinem vento agitatam?
25 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.
Sed quid existis videre? hominem mollibus vestibus indutum? Ecce qui in veste pretiosa sunt et deliciis, in domibus regum sunt.
26 What then did you go out to see? A prophet? Yes, I tell you, and more than a prophet.
Sed quid existis videre? prophetam? Utique dico vobis, et plusquam Prophetam:
27 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.’
hic est, de quo scriptum est: Ecce mitto angelum meum ante faciem tuam, qui praeparabit viam tuam ante te.
28 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.”
Dico enim vobis: Maior inter natos mulierum propheta Ioanne Baptista nemo est. qui autem minor est in regno Dei, maior est illo.
29 All the people who heard this, even the tax collectors, acknowledged God’s justice. For they had received the baptism of John.
Et omnis populus audiens et publicani, iustificaverunt Deum, baptizati baptismo Ioannis.
30 But the Pharisees and experts in the law rejected God’s purpose for themselves, because they had not been baptized by John.
Pharisaei autem, et legis periti consilium Dei spreverunt in semetipsos, non baptizati ab eo.
31 “To what, then, can I compare the men of this generation? What are they like?
Ait autem Dominus: Cui ergo similes dicam homines generationis huius? et cui similes sunt?
32 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.’
Similes sunt pueris sedentibus in foro, et loquentibus adinvicem, et dicentibus: Cantavimus vobis tibiis, et non saltastis: lamentavimus, et non plorastis.
33 For John the Baptist came neither eating bread nor drinking wine, and you say, ‘He has a demon!’
Venit enim Ioannes Baptista, neque manducans panem, neque bibens vinum, et dicitis: Daemonium habet.
34 The Son of Man came eating and drinking, and you say, ‘Look at this glutton and drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners!’
Venit Filius hominis manducans, et bibens, et dicitis: Ecce homo devorator, et bibens vinum, amicus publicanorum, et peccatorum.
35 But wisdom is vindicated by all her children.”
Et iustificata est sapientia ab omnibus filiis suis.
36 Then one of the Pharisees invited Jesus to eat with him, and He entered the Pharisee’s house and reclined at the table.
Rogabat autem illum quidam de Pharisaeis ut manducaret cum illo. Et ingressus domum Pharisaei discubuit.
37 When a sinful woman from that town learned that Jesus was dining there, she brought an alabaster jar of perfume.
Et ecce mulier, quae erat in civitate peccatrix, ut cognovit quod Iesus accubuisset in domo Pharisaei, attulit alabastrum unguenti:
38 As she stood behind Him at His feet weeping, she began to wet His feet with her tears and wipe them with her hair. Then she kissed His feet and anointed them with the perfume.
et stans retro secus pedes eius, lacrymis coepit rigare pedes eius, et capillis capitis sui tergebat, et osculabatur pedes eius, et unguento ungebat.
39 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!”
Videns autem Pharisaeus, qui vocaverat eum, ait intra se dicens: Hic si esset propheta, sciret utique, quae, et qualis est mulier, quae tangit eum: quia peccatrix est.
40 But Jesus answered him, “Simon, I have something to tell you.” “Tell me, Teacher,” he said.
Et respondens Iesus, dixit ad illum: Simon, habeo tibi aliquid dicere. At ille ait: Magister, dic.
41 “Two men were debtors to a certain moneylender. One owed him five hundred denarii, and the other fifty.
Duo debitores erant cuidam foeneratori: unus debebat denarios quingentos, et alius quinquaginta.
42 When they were unable to repay him, he forgave both of them. Which one, then, will love him more?”
Non habentibus illis unde redderent, donavit utrisque. Quis ergo eum plus diligit?
43 “I suppose the one who was forgiven more,” Simon replied. “You have judged correctly,” Jesus said.
Respondens Simon dixit: Aestimo quia is, cui plus donavit. At ille dixit ei: Recte iudicasti.
44 And turning toward the woman, He said to Simon, “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.
Et conversus ad mulierem, dixit Simoni: Vides hanc mulierem? Intravi domum tuam, aquam pedibus meis non dedisti: haec autem lacrymis rigavit pedes meos, et capillis suis tersit.
45 You did not greet Me with a kiss, but she has not stopped kissing My feet since I arrived.
Osculum mihi non dedisti: haec autem ex quo intravit, non cessavit osculari pedes meos.
46 You did not anoint My head with oil, but she has anointed My feet with perfume.
Oleo caput meum non unxisti: haec autem unguento unxit pedes meos.
47 Therefore I tell you, because her many sins have been forgiven, she has loved much. But he who has been forgiven little loves little.”
Propter quod dico tibi: Remittuntur ei peccata multa, quoniam dilexit multum. Cui autem minus dimittitur, minus diligit.
48 Then Jesus said to her, “Your sins are forgiven.”
Dixit autem ad illam: Remittuntur tibi peccata tua.
49 But those at the table began to say to themselves, “Who is this who even forgives sins?”
Et coeperunt qui simul accumbebant, dicere intra se: Quis est hic, qui etiam peccata dimittit?
50 And Jesus told the woman, “Your faith has saved you; go in peace.”
Dixit autem ad mulierem: Fides tua te salvam fecit: vade in pace.
