< Luke 7 >

1 And when he had completed all his words in the hearing of the people, he entered into Capernaum.
When he had ended all his sainges in the audience of the people he entred into Capernau
2 And a certain centurion's bondman who was dear to him was ill and about to die;
And a certayne Centurions seruaunte was sicke and redy to dye whom he made moche of.
3 and having heard of Jesus, he sent to him elders of the Jews, begging him that he might come and save his bondman.
And when he hearde of Iesu he sent vnto him the elders of the Iewes besechinge him yt he wolde come and heale his servaunt.
4 But they, being come to Jesus, besought him diligently, saying, He is worthy to whom thou shouldest grant this,
And they came to Iesus and besought him instantly sayinge: He is worthi that thou shuldest do this for him.
5 for he loves our nation, and himself has built the synagogue for us.
For he loveth oure nacion and hath bilt vs a sinagoge
6 And Jesus went with them. But already, when he was not far from the house, the centurion sent to him friends, saying to him, Lord, do not trouble thyself, for I am not worthy that thou shouldest enter under my roof.
And Iesus went with them. And when he was not farre fro the housse the Centurio sent frendes to him sayinge vnto him: Lorde trouble not thy silfe: for I am not worthy yt thou shuldest enter vnder my roffe.
7 Wherefore neither did I count myself worthy to come to thee. But say by a word and my servant shall be healed.
Wherfore I thought not my silfe worthy to come vnto the: but saye the worde and my servaunt shalbe whoole.
8 For I also am a man placed under authority, having under myself soldiers, and I say to this [one], Go, and he goes; and to another, Come, and he comes; and to my bondman, Do this, and he does [it].
For I lyke wyse am a man vnder power and have vnder me soudiers and I saye vnto won goo: and he goeth. And to another come: and he cometh. And to my servaunt do this: and he doeth it.
9 And Jesus hearing this wondered at him, and turning to the crowd following him said, I say to you, Not even in Israel have I found so great faith.
When Iesus herde this he merveyled at him and turned him about and sayd to the people that folowed him: I saye vnto you I have not founde so greate faith noo not in Israel.
10 And they who had been sent returning to the house found the bondman, who was ill, in good health.
And they yt were sent turned backe home agayne and founde the servaunt that was sicke whoole.
11 And it came to pass afterwards he went into a city called Nain, and many of his disciples and a great crowd went with him.
And it fortuned after that that he went into a cite called Naim and many of his disciples went wt him and moche people.
12 And as he drew near to the gate of the city, behold, a dead man was carried out, the only son of his mother, and she a widow, and a very considerable crowd of the city [was] with her.
When he came nye to the gate of the cite: beholde ther was a deed man caried out which was ye only sonne of his mother and she was a widowe and moche people of the cite was with her.
13 And the Lord, seeing her, was moved with compassion for her, and said to her, Weep not;
And when ye lorde sawe her he had compassion on her and sayde vnto her: wepe not.
14 and coming up he touched the bier, and the bearers stopped. And he said, Youth, I say to thee, Wake up.
And he went and touched the coffyn and they yt bare him stode still. And he sayde: Yonge man I saye vnto the aryse.
15 And the dead sat up and began to speak; and he gave him to his mother.
And ye deed sate vp and beganne to speake. And he delyvered him to his mother.
16 And fear seized on all, and they glorified God, saying, A great prophet has been raised up amongst us; and God has visited his people.
And ther ca a feare on the all. And they glorified god sayinge: a greate prophet is rysen amoge vs and god hath visited his people
17 And this report went out in all Judaea concerning him, and in all the surrounding country.
And this rumor of him wet forthe throughout all Iurie and thorowout all the regions which lye rounde about.
18 And the disciples of John brought him word concerning all these things:
And ye disciples of Iohn shewed him of all these thinges.
19 and John, having called two of his disciples, sent to Jesus, saying, Art thou he that is coming, or are we to wait for another?
And Iohn called vnto him. ii. of his disciples and sent the to Iesus sayinge: Arte thou he that shall come: or shall we loke for another?
20 But the men having come to him said, John the baptist has sent us to thee, saying, Art thou he that is coming, or are we to wait for another?
When the men were come vnto him they sayde: Iohn baptiste sent vs vnto ye sayinge: Arte thou he that shall come: or shall we wayte for another?
21 In that hour he healed many of diseases and plagues and evil spirits, and to many blind he granted sight.
And at yt same tyme he cured many of their infirmites and plages and of evyll spretes and vnto many that were blynde he gave sight
22 And Jesus answering said to them, Go, bring back word to John of what ye have seen and heard: that blind see, lame walk, lepers are cleansed, deaf hear, dead are raised, poor are evangelized;
And Iesus answered and sayd vnto them: Goo youre wayes and shewe Iohn what thinges ye have sene and harde: how yt the blynde se the halt goo the lepers are clensed the deafe heare the deed aryse to the poore is the glad tydinges preached
23 and blessed is whosoever shall not be offended in me.
and happy is he that is not offended by me.
24 And the messengers of John having departed, he began to speak to the crowds concerning John: What went ye out into the wilderness to behold? a reed shaken by the wind?
When ye messengers of Iohn were departed he began to speake vnto ye people of Iohn What wet ye oute into ye wildernes for to se? went ye to se arede shaken wt ye wynde?
25 But what went ye out to see? a man clothed in delicate garments? Behold, those who are in splendid clothing and live luxuriously are in the courts of kings.
But what went ye out for tose? A ma clothed in soofte rayment? Beholde they which are gorgeously apparelled and lyve delicatly are in kynges courtes.
26 But what went ye out to see? a prophet? Yea, I say to you, and [what is] more excellent than a prophet.
But what went ye forth to se? A prophete? Ye I saye to you and moare then a prophete
27 This is he concerning whom it is written, Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, who shall prepare thy way before thee;
This is he of who it is wrytte: Beholde I sende my messenger before thy face to prepare thy waye before the.
28 for I say unto you, Among them that are born of women a greater [prophet] is no one than John [the baptist]; but he who is a little one in the kingdom of God is greater than he.
For I saye vnto you: a greater prophete then Iohn amoge wemes chyldre is ther none. Neverthelesse one yt is lesse in ye kyngdo of god is greater the he
29 (And all the people who heard [it], and the tax-gatherers, justified God, having been baptised with the baptism of John;
And all the people that hearde and the publicans iustified God and were baptised with the baptim of Iohn.
30 but the Pharisees and the lawyers rendered null as to themselves the counsel of God, not having been baptised by him.)
But the pharises and scribes despised ye counsell of god agaynst them selves and were not baptised of him.
31 To whom therefore shall I liken the men of this generation, and to whom are they like?
And ye lorde sayd: Wher vnto shall I lyke the men of this generacion and what thinge are they lyke?
32 They are like children sitting in the market-place, and calling one to another and saying, We have piped to you, and ye have not danced; we have mourned to you, and ye have not wept.
They are lyke vnto chyldre sittynge in ye market place and cryinge one to another and sayinge: We have pyped vnto you and ye hahave not daunsed: we have mourned to you and ye have not wept.
33 For John the baptist has come neither eating bread nor drinking wine, and ye say, He has a demon.
For Iohn baptist cam nether eatynge breed ner drinkynge wyne and ye saye: he hath the devyll.
34 The Son of man has come eating and drinking, and ye say, Behold an eater and wine-drinker, a friend of tax-gatherers and sinners;
The sonne of man is come and eateth and drinketh and ye saye: beholde a man which is a glotton and a drinker of wyne a frende of publicans and synners.
35 and wisdom has been justified of all her children.
Yet is wysdome iustified of all her chyldren.
36 But one of the Pharisees begged him that he would eat with him. And entering into the house of the Pharisee he took his place at table;
And one of the pharises desyred him that he wolde eate with him. And he went into ye pharises housse and sate doune to meate.
37 and behold, a woman in the city, who was a sinner, and knew that he was sitting at meat in the house of the Pharisee, having taken an alabaster box of myrrh,
And beholde a woman in that cite which was a synner assone as she knewe that. Iesus sate at meate in the pharises housse she brought an alablaster boxe of oyntmet
38 and standing at his feet behind [him] weeping, began to wash his feet with tears; and she wiped them with the hairs of her head, and kissed his feet, and anointed [them] with the myrrh.
and she stode at his fete behynde him wepynge and beganne to wesshe his fete with teares and dyd wipe the with the heares of her heed and kyssed his fete and anoynted them with oyntment.
39 And the Pharisee who had invited him, seeing it, spoke with himself saying, This [person] if he were a prophet would have known who and what the woman is who touches him, for she is a sinner.
When the pharise which bade him sawe that he spake with in him sylfe sayinge: If this man were a prophete he wolde surely have knowen who and what maner woman this is which toucheth him for she is a synner.
40 And Jesus answering said to him, Simon, I have somewhat to say to thee. And he says, Teacher, say [it].
And Iesus answered and sayde vnto him: Simon I have some what to saye vnto ye. And he sayd master saye on.
41 There were two debtors of a certain creditor: one owed five hundred denarii and the other fifty;
There was a certayne lender which had two detters ye one ought five hondred pence and the other fyfty.
42 but as they had nothing to pay, he forgave both of them [their debt]: [say, ] which of them therefore will love him most?
When they had nothinge to paye he forgave the boothe. Which of them tell me will love him moost?
43 And Simon answering said, I suppose he to whom he forgave the most. And he said to him, Thou hast rightly judged.
Simon answered and sayde: I suppose that he to whom he forgave moost. And he sayde vnto him: Thou hast truly iudged.
44 And turning to the woman he said to Simon, Seest thou this woman? I entered into thy house; thou gavest me not water on my feet, but she has washed my feet with tears, and wiped them with her hair.
And he turned to the woman and sayde vnto Simon: Seist thou this woman? I entred into thy housse and thou gavest me noo water to my fete but she hath wesshed my fete with teares and wiped the with the heeres of her heed.
45 Thou gavest me not a kiss, but she from the time I came in has not ceased kissing my feet.
Thou gavest me no kysse: but she sence ye tyme I came in hath not ceased to kysse my fete
46 My head with oil thou didst not anoint, but she has anointed my feet with myrrh.
Myne heed wt oyle thou dydest not anoynte: but she hath annoynted my fete wt oyntmet.
47 For which cause I say to thee, Her many sins are forgiven; for she loved much; but he to whom little is forgiven loves little.
Wherefore I saye vnto the: many synnes are forgeve her for she loved moche. To whom lesse is forgeven the same doeth lesse love.
48 And he said to her, Thy sins are forgiven.
And he sayde vnto her thy synnes are forgeven ye
49 And they that were with [them] at table began to say within themselves, Who is this who forgives also sins?
And they yt sate at meate with him beganne to saye within them selves: Who is this which forgeveth synnes also?
50 And he said to the woman, Thy faith has saved thee; go in peace.
And he sayde to ye woman: Thy faith hath saved the Goo in peace.
