Luke 5
1 One day, as Jesus was standing beside the Sea of Galilee, people crowded around him to hear the word of God.
Factum est autem, cum turbæ irruerunt in eum ut audirent verbum Dei, et ipse stabat secus stagnum Genesareth.
2 Jesus noticed two boats lying on the shore, left there by fishermen who were washing their nets.
Et vidit duas naves stantes secus stagnum: piscatores autem descenderant, et lavabant retia.
3 Jesus got into a boat, the one that belonged to Simon, and asked him to push it out into the water, just offshore. Then Jesus sat down in the boat and taught the people from there.
Ascendens autem in unam navim, quæ erat Simonis, rogavit eum a terra reducere pusillum. Et sedens docebat de navicula turbas.
4 After he'd finished speaking, he told Simon, “Go out into deeper water, and let down your nets for a catch.”
Ut cessavit autem loqui, dixit ad Simonem: Duc in altum, et laxate retia vestra in capturam.
5 “Lord, we worked hard all night, and didn't catch anything. But if you say so, I'll let down the nets,” Simon replied.
Et respondens Simon, dixit illi: Præceptor, per totam noctem laborantes nihil cepimus: in verbo autem tuo laxabo rete.
6 Having done this, a large shoal of fish filled the nets full to breaking point.
Et cum hoc fecissent, concluserunt piscium multitudinem copiosam: rumpebatur autem rete eorum.
7 They waved to their partners in the other boat, asking them to come over and help. The others came over and together they filled both of the boats with fish. The boats were so full that they began to sink.
Et annuerunt sociis, qui erant in alia navi, ut venirent, et adjuvarent eos. Et venerunt, et impleverunt ambas naviculas, ita ut pene mergerentur.
8 When Simon Peter saw what had happened, he dropped to his knees before Jesus. “Lord, please stay away from me, for I am a sinful man!” he exclaimed.
Quod cum videret Simon Petrus, procidit ad genua Jesu, dicens: Exi a me, quia homo peccator sum, Domine.
9 For he and everybody with him were completely amazed by the catch of fish that they had landed.
Stupor enim circumdederat eum, et omnes qui cum illo erant, in captura piscium, quam ceperant:
10 James and John, the sons of Zebedee, Simon's partners, felt the same way. “Don't be afraid,” Jesus told Simon. “From now on you'll be fishing for people!”
similiter autem Jacobum et Joannem, filios Zebedæi, qui erant socii Simonis. Et ait ad Simonem Jesus: Noli timere: ex hoc jam homines eris capiens.
11 So they dragged the boats onto the shore, left everything, and followed Jesus.
Et subductis ad terram navibus, relictis omnibus, secuti sunt eum.
12 Once when Jesus was visiting one of the towns, he met a man there who had a very bad case of leprosy. The man fell with his face to the ground and begged Jesus, “Please Lord, if you're willing, you can make me clean.”
Et factum est, cum esset in una civitatum, et ecce vir plenus lepra, et videns Jesum, et procidens in faciem, rogavit eum, dicens: Domine, si vis, potes me mundare.
13 Jesus reached out and touched the man. “I am willing,” he said. “Be clean!” Immediately the leprosy disappeared.
Et extendens manum, tetigit eum dicens: Volo: mundare. Et confestim lepra discessit ab illo.
14 “Say nothing to anyone,” Jesus instructed him. “Go and show yourself to the priest and make the ceremonial offerings as required by the law of Moses as proof that you've been healed.”
Et ipse præcepit illi ut nemini diceret: sed, Vade, ostende te sacerdoti, et offer pro emundatione tua, sicut præcepit Moyses, in testimonium illis.
15 Yet the news about Jesus spread more and more. Large crowds came to hear Jesus and to be healed from their diseases.
Perambulabat autem magis sermo de illo: et conveniebant turbæ multæ ut audirent, et curarentur ab infirmitatibus suis.
16 But Jesus often used to retreat to quiet places and pray.
Ipse autem secedebat in desertum, et orabat.
17 One day when Jesus was teaching, the Pharisees and religious teachers who had come from all over Galilee, Judea, and Jerusalem were sitting there. The power of the Lord to heal was with him so he could heal.
Et factum est in una dierum, et ipse sedebat docens. Et erant pharisæi sedentes, et legis doctores, qui venerant ex omni castello Galilææ, et Judææ, et Jerusalem: et virtus Domini erat ad sanandum eos.
18 Some men arrived carrying a paralyzed man on a mat. They tried to take him in and lay him in front of Jesus.
Et ecce viri portantes in lecto hominem, qui erat paralyticus: et quærebant eum inferre, et ponere ante eum.
19 But they couldn't find any way through the crowd, so they went up on the roof and made a hole in the roof tiles. Then they lowered the man down on the mat, right into the crowd in front of Jesus.
Et non invenientes qua parte illum inferrent præ turba, ascenderunt supra tectum, et per tegulas summiserunt eum cum lecto in medium ante Jesum.
20 When Jesus saw the trust they had in him, he said to the man, “Your sins are forgiven.”
Quorum fidem ut vidit, dixit: Homo, remittuntur tibi peccata tua.
21 The religious teachers and the Pharisees began to argue with that. “Who is this who's speaking blasphemies?” they asked. “Who can forgive sins? Only God can do that!”
Et cœperunt cogitare scribæ et pharisæi, dicentes: Quis est hic, qui loquitur blasphemias? quis potest dimittere peccata, nisi solus Deus?
22 Jesus knew what they were arguing about, so he asked them, “Why are you thinking to question this?
Ut cognovit autem Jesus cogitationes eorum, respondens, dixit ad illos: Quid cogitatis in cordibus vestris?
23 What is easier? To say your sins are forgiven, or to say get up and walk?
Quid est facilius dicere: Dimittuntur tibi peccata: an dicere: Surge, et ambula?
24 However, I will prove to you that the Son of man has the authority here on earth to forgive sins.” Then he said to the paralyzed man, “I tell you: Get up, pick up your mat, and go home.”
Ut autem sciatis quia Filius hominis habet potestatem in terra dimittendi peccata, (ait paralytico) tibi dico, surge, tolle lectum tuum, et vade in domum tuam.
25 Immediately the man stood up in front of them. He picked up the mat he'd been lying on, and went home, praising God as he went.
Et confestim consurgens coram illis, tulit lectum in quo jacebat: et abiit in domum suam, magnificans Deum.
26 Everyone was completely astonished at what had happened, and in great awe they praised God, saying, “What we saw today was amazing!”
Et stupor apprehendit omnes, et magnificabant Deum. Et repleti sunt timore, dicentes: Quia vidimus mirabilia hodie.
27 Later, as Jesus was leaving the town, he saw a tax collector called Levi sitting at his tax booth. “Follow me,” Jesus told him.
Et post hæc exiit, et vidit publicanum nomine Levi, sedentem ad telonium, et ait illi: Sequere me.
28 Levi stood up, left everything, and followed Jesus.
Et relictis omnibus, surgens secutus est eum.
29 Levi organized a large banquet at his home in Jesus' honor. Many tax collectors and others were in the crowd that sat down to eat with them. But the Pharisees and the religious teachers complained to Jesus' disciples, asking,
Et fecit ei convivium magnum Levi in domo sua: et erat turba multa publicanorum, et aliorum qui cum illis erant discumbentes.
30 “Why do you eat and drink with tax collectors and sinners?”
Et murmurabant pharisæi et scribæ eorum, dicentes ad discipulos ejus: Quare cum publicanis et peccatoribus manducatis et bibitis?
31 “Healthy people don't need a doctor—but sick people do,” Jesus replied.
Et respondens Jesus, dixit ad illos: Non egent qui sani sunt medico, sed qui male habent.
32 “I didn't come to call those who are living right to repentance—I came to call sinners.”
Non veni vocare justos, sed peccatores ad pœnitentiam.
33 “Well, John's disciples often fast and pray, and the Pharisees' disciples do so as well. But your disciples don't—they go on eating and drinking,” they told him.
At illi dixerunt ad eum: Quare discipuli Joannis jejunant frequenter, et obsecrationes faciunt, similiter et pharisæorum: tui autem edunt et bibunt?
34 “Should the groomsmen fast while the bridegroom is with them?” Jesus asked.
Quibus ipse ait: Numquid potestis filios sponsi, dum cum illis est sponsus, facere jejunare?
35 “No—but the time is coming when the bridegroom will be taken away from them. Then they can fast.”
Venient autem dies, cum ablatus fuerit ab illis sponsus: tunc jejunabunt in illis diebus.
36 Then he gave them an illustration: “You don't tear out a patch from new clothes to mend old clothes. Otherwise you'd ruin new clothes, and the patch from the new wouldn't match the old.
Dicebat autem et similitudinem ad illos: Quia nemo commissuram a novo vestimento immittit in vestimentum vetus: alioquin et novum rumpit, et veteri non convenit commissura a novo.
37 You don't put new wine into old wineskins, because if you did the new wine would burst the wineskins. Then both wine and wineskins would be wasted.
Et nemo mittit vinum novum in utres veteres: alioquin rumpet vinum novum utres, et ipsum effundetur, et utres peribunt:
38 You put new wine in new wineskins.
sed vinum novum in utres novos mittendum est, et utraque conservantur.
39 And nobody after drinking old wine wants new wine, for they say, ‘the old tastes good.’”
Et nemo bibens vetus, statim vult novum: dicit enim: Vetus melius est.
