Luke 7
1 When He completed all His words in the ears of the people, He came into Capernaum.
And when He completed all His sayings in the ears of the people, He went into Capernaum;
2 And the servant of a certain centurion, being sick, was about to die, who was precious to him.
and a certain centurion’s servant being ill, was about to die, who was much valued by him,
3 And hearing about Jesus, he sent elders of the Jews to Him, asking Him that having come He may save his servant.
and having heard about Jesus, he sent to Him elders of the Jews, imploring Him, that having come He might thoroughly save his servant.
4 And they, having come to Jesus, continued to entreat Him earnestly, saying, That he to whom He will do this is worthy:
And they, having come near to Jesus, were calling on Him earnestly, saying, “He is worthy to whom You will do this,
5 for he loves our race, and himself built for us a synagogue.
for he loves our nation, and he built to us the synagogue.”
6 And Jesus went along with them. And already He being not far from the house, the centurion sent friends to Him, saying to Him, Lord, be not troubled: for I am not worthy that you may come in under my roof:
And Jesus was going on with them, and now when He is not far distant from the house the centurion sent to Him friends, saying to Him, “Lord, do not be troubled, for I am not worthy that You may enter under my roof;
7 Therefore I did not count myself worthy to come to thee; but speak the word, and my servant shall be healed.
for this reason I did not consider myself worthy to come to You, but say in a word, and my boy will be healed;
8 For I am also a man placed under authority, having soldiers under me: and I say to this one, Go, and he goeth; and to another, Come, and he cometh; and to my servant, Do this, and he doeth it.
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, Be coming, and he comes; and to my servant, Do this, and he does [it].”
9 And Jesus, having heard these words, was astonished at him, and turning to the multitude following said, I say unto you, I did not find so great faith in Israel.
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 did I find so much faith”;
10 And those having been sent, returning to the house, found the servant well.
and those sent, having turned back to the house, found the ailing servant in health.
11 And it came to pass consecutively, He departed into a city called Nain; and His many disciples and a great multitude went along with Him.
And it came to pass, on the next day, He was going on to a city called Nain, and there were going with Him many of His disciples, and a great multitude,
12 And when He drew nigh unto the gate of the city, behold, a dead man, an only born son to his mother, and she a widow, was indeed being carried out: and a great multitude of the city was along with her.
and as He came near to the gate of the city, then, behold, 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.
13 And the Lord seeing her, was moved with compassion towards her, and said to her, Weep not.
And the LORD having seen her, was moved with compassion toward her and said to her, “Do not be weeping”;
14 And having come forward He touched the bier: and the pall-bearers stood still: and He said, Young man, I say unto thee, Arise.
and having come near, He touched the bier, and those carrying [it] stood still, and He said, “Young man, to you I say, Arise”;
15 And the dead man sat up, and began to talk, and Ile gave him to his mother.
and the dead sat up, and began to speak, and He gave him to his mother;
16 And fear seized them all: and they continued to glorify God, saying that, A great prophet has arisen among us: and, God has looked upon His people.
and fear took hold of all, and they were glorifying God, saying, “A great prophet has risen among us,” and, “God looked on His people.”
17 And that word about Him went out in all Judea, and all the country round about.
And the account of this went forth in all Judea about Him, and in all the region around.
18 And His disciples proclaimed to John concerning all these things.
And the disciples of John told him about all these things,
19 And John calling certain two of his disciples sent them to the Lord, saying, Art thou the one coming, or must we expect another?
and John having called near a certain two of his disciples, sent to Jesus, saying, “Are You He who is coming, or do we look for another?”
20 And the men having come to Him, said; John the Baptist sent us to thee, saving; Art thou the one coming, or must we expect another?
And having come near to Him, the men said, “John the Immerser sent us to You, saying, Are You He who is coming, or do we look for another?”
21 And at that hour He healed many of their diseases and ailments and evil spirits; and He conferred on many blind people the power to see.
And in that hour He cured many from diseases, and plagues, and evil spirits, and He granted sight to many blind.
22 And Jesus responding said to them, Having gone, proclaim to John those things which you saw and heard; that the blind are seeing, the lame are walking about, the lepers are being cleansed, the deaf are hearing, the dead are being raised up, the poor are having the gospel preached unto them;
And Jesus answering said to them, “Having gone on, report to John what you saw and heard, that blind men see again, lame walk, lepers are cleansed, deaf hear, dead are raised, poor have good news proclaimed;
23 and happy is he whosoever may not be offended in me.
and blessed is he whoever may not be stumbled in Me.”
24 And the messengers of John having gone away, He began to speak to the multitudes concerning John, What went ye out into the wilderness to see? a reed shaken by the wind?
And the messengers of John having gone away, He began to say to the multitudes concerning John: “What have you gone forth into the wilderness to look on? A reed shaken by the wind?
25 But what went you out into the wilderness to see? a man clothed in soft raiment? Behold those who are in gaudy apparel and luxury, are in royal palaces.
But what have you gone forth to see? A man clothed in soft garments? Behold, they in splendid clothing, and living in luxury, are in the houses of kings!
26 But what went you out to see? a prophet? Yea, and I say unto you even more than a prophet.
But what have you gone forth to see? A prophet? Yes, I say to you, and much more than a prophet:
27 This is he concerning whom it has been written, Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, who will prepare thy way before thee.
this is he concerning whom it has been written: Behold, I send My messenger before Your face, who will prepare Your way before You;
28 I say unto you, among those having been born of women no prophet is greater than John the Baptist; nevertheless the least in the kingdom of God is greater than he.
for I say to you, there is not a greater prophet, among those born of women, than John the Immerser; but the least in the Kingdom of God is greater than he.”
29 And all the people hearing and the publicans justified God, being baptized with the baptism of John.
And all the people having heard, and the tax collectors, declared God righteous, having been immersed with the immersion of John,
30 But the Pharisees and theologians rejected the counsel of God, against themselves, not having been baptized by him.
but the Pharisees and the lawyers put away the counsel of God for themselves, having not been immersed by him.
31 Then to whom shall I liken the men of this generation, and to whom are they like?
And the LORD said, “To what, then, will I liken the men of this generation? And to what are they like?
32 They are like unto little children sitting in the market-place, and calling to one another, and saying, We piped unto you, and you did not dance; we mourned unto you, and you did not weep.
They are like to children, to those sitting in a marketplace, 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!
33 For John the Baptist has come neither eating bread nor drinking wine; and you say, He has a demon.
For John the Immerser came neither eating bread nor drinking wine, and you say, He has a demon;
34 The Son of man has come eating and drinking, and you say, Behold, a gluttonous wine-drinking man, a friend of publicans and sinners.
the Son of Man came eating and drinking, and you say, Behold, a man, a glutton, and a wine drinker, a friend of tax collectors and sinners;
35 Truly wisdom is justified by her children.
and the wisdom was justified from all her children.”
36 And a certain one of the Pharisees, asked Him, that He would eat with him, and having come into the house of the Pharisee, He sat down to the table.
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,
37 Behold, a woman who was a sinner, in the city, also having learned that He is dining in the house of the Pharisee, breaking an alabaster box of myrrh,
and behold, a woman in the city, who was a sinner, having known that He reclines in the house of the Pharisee, having provided an alabaster box of ointment,
38 and standing behind by His feet, weeping, began to moisten His feel with tears, and she wiped them with the hairs of her head, and she continued to copiously kiss His feet, and to anoint them with the myrrh.
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.
39 And the Pharisee, having invited Him, seeing, spoke within himself, saying, If He were a prophet, He would know who and what kind the woman is, who touches Him, because she is a sinner.
And the Pharisee who called Him, having seen, spoke within himself, saying, “This One, if He were a prophet, would have known who and of what kind [is] the woman who touches Him, that she is a sinner.”
40 And Jesus responding said to him, Simon, I have something to say to thee. And he says, Speak, Teacher.
And Jesus answering said to him, “Simon, I have something to say to you”; and he says, “Teacher, say on.”
41 There were two debtors to a certain creditor: the one owed him five hundred denaria, and the other fifty.
“Two debtors were to a certain creditor; one was owing five hundred denarii, and the other fifty;
42 And they not being able to pay, he forgave them both. Then which one of them will love him the more?
and they not having [with which] to give back, he forgave both; which of them then, do you say, will love him more?”
43 Simon responding said, I perceive, that he, to whom he forgave the more. And He said to him, You answered correctly.
And Simon answering said, “I suppose that to whom he forgave the more”; and He said to him, “You judged correctly.”
44 And turning to the woman He said to Simon, Do you see this woman? I came into thy house, thou gavest me no water for my feet: but she washed my feet with tears, and wiped them with her hairs.
And having turned to the woman, He said to Simon, “See this woman? I entered into your house; you did not give water for My feet, but this woman wet My feet with tears, and wiped with the hairs of her head;
45 Thou gavest me no kiss: she, from the time I came in, did not cease copiously kissing my feet.
you did not give a kiss to Me, but this woman, from what [time] I came in, did not cease kissing My feet;
46 Thou didst not anoint my head with oil: but she anointed my feet with myrrh.
you did not anoint My head with oil, but this woman anointed My feet with oil;
47 Therefore I say unto thee, her sins, which are many, are forgiven; for she loved much: but he to whom little is forgiven, loveth little.
therefore I say to you, her many sins have been forgiven, because she loved much; but to whom is forgiven little, loves little.”
48 And He said to her; Thy sins are forgiven.
And He said to her, “Your sins have been forgiven”;
49 And those sitting along with Him began to say among themselves, Who is this who even forgives sins?
and those dining with Him began to say within themselves, “Who is this, who also forgives sins?”
50 And He said to the woman, Thy faith hath saved them; go in peace.
And He said to the woman, “Your faith has saved you, be going on to peace.”
