Luke 7
1 When he had ended all his discourse in the hearing of the people, he entered Capernaum.
Cum autem implesset omnia verba sua in aures plebis, intravit Capharnaum.
2 And a certain centurion's servant, who was dear to him, was sick, and about to die.
Centurionis autem cujusdam servus male habens, erat moriturus: qui illi erat pretiosus.
3 And having heard about Jesus, he sent to him elders of the Jews, and besought him to come and save his servant.
Et cum audisset de Jesu, misit ad eum seniores Judæorum, rogans eum ut veniret et salvaret servum ejus.
4 And they came to Jesus, and besought him earnestly, saying, He is worthy that thou shouldst do this for him;
At illi cum venissent ad Jesum, rogabant eum sollicite, dicentes ei: Quia dignus est ut hoc illi præstes:
5 for he loveth our nation, and himself built the synagogue for us.
diligit enim gentem nostram, et synagogam ipse ædificavit nobis.
6 And Jesus went with them. And when he was now not far from the house, the centurion sent friends, saying, Lord, trouble not thyself; for I am not worthy that thou shouldst come under my roof;
Jesus autem ibat cum illis. Et cum jam non longe esset a domo, misit ad eum centurio amicos, dicens: Domine, noli vexari: non enim sum dignus ut sub tectum meum intres:
7 on which account I did not think myself worthy to come to thee; but command with a word, and let my servant be healed.
propter quod et meipsum non sum dignum arbitratus ut venirem ad te: sed dic verbo, et sanabitur puer meus.
8 For even I am a man set 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.
Nam et ego homo sum sub potestate constitutus, habens sub me milites: et dico huic, Vade, et vadit: et alii, Veni, et venit: et servo meo, Fac hoc, et facit.
9 And Jesus hearing this, wondered at him; and turning round said to the multitude that followed him, I say to you, Not even in Israel have I found such faith.
Quo audito Jesus miratus est: et conversus sequentibus se turbis, dixit: Amen dico vobis, nec in Israël tantam fidem inveni.
10 And they who were sent, returning to the house, found the servant well.
Et reversi, qui missi fuerant, domum, invenerunt servum, qui languerat, sanum.
11 And it came to pass the day after, that he was going to a city called Nain; and many of his disciples were with him, and a great multitude.
Et factum est: deinceps ibat in civitatem quæ vocatur Naim: et ibant cum eo discipuli ejus et turba copiosa.
12 And as he came near the gate of the city, lo! there was carried out dead an only son of his mother, and she was a widow; and a great multitude from the city was with her.
Cum autem appropinquaret portæ civitatis, ecce defunctus efferebatur filius unicus matris suæ: et hæc vidua erat: et turba civitatis multa cum illa.
13 And when the Lord saw her, he was moved with compassion for her, and said to her, Weep not.
Quam cum vidisset Dominus, misericordia motus super eam, dixit illi: Noli flere.
14 And he came up, and touched the bier; and they who bore it stood still; and he said, Young man, I say to thee, Rise.
Et accessit, et tetigit loculum. (Hi autem qui portabant, steterunt.) Et ait: Adolescens, tibi dico, surge.
15 And he that was dead sat up and began to speak; and he gave him to his mother.
Et resedit qui erat mortuus, et cœpit loqui. Et dedit illum matri suæ.
16 And fear seized on all, and they gave glory to God, saying, A great prophet hath risen up among us; and, God hath 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 this report about him went forth in all Judaea, and in all the neighboring country.
Et exiit hic sermo in universam Judæam de eo, et in omnem circa regionem.
18 And the disciples of John told him all these things.
Et nuntiaverunt Joanni discipuli ejus de omnibus his.
19 And calling to him two of his disciples, John sent them to the Lord, saying, Art thou he that is to come, or are we to look for another?
Et convocavit duos de discipulis suis Joannes, et misit ad Jesum, dicens: Tu es qui venturus es, an alium exspectamus?
20 And the men came to him and said, John the Baptist hath sent us to thee, saying, Art thou he that is to come, or are we to look for another?
Cum autem venissent ad eum viri, dixerunt: Joannes Baptista misit nos ad te dicens: Tu es qui venturus es, an alium exspectamus?
21 In that hour he cured many of diseases, and plagues, and evil spirits, and to many who were blind he gave sight.
(In ipsa autem hora multos curavit a languoribus, et plagis, et spiritibus malis, et cæcis multis donavit visum.)
22 And he answered and said to them, Go and tell John what ye have seen and heard; that the blind receive sight, the lame walk, lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, to the poor good tidings are brought;
Et respondens, dixit illis: Euntes renuntiate Joanni quæ audistis et vidistis: quia cæci vident, claudi ambulant, leprosi mundantur, surdi audiunt, mortui resurgunt, pauperes evangelizantur:
23 and blessed is he, whoever shall find no occasion of stumbling in me.
et beatus est quicumque non fuerit scandalizatus in me.
24 And when the messengers of John had departed, he began to say to the multitudes concerning John, What have ye gone out into the wilderness to see? the reeds shaken by the wind?
Et cum discessissent nuntii Joannis, cœpit de Joanne dicere ad turbas: Quid existis in desertum videre? arundinem vento agitatam?
25 But what have ye gone out to see? a man clothed in soft raiment? Lo! they who wear gorgeous apparel, and live luxuriously, are in kings' palaces.
Sed quid existis videre? hominem mollibus vestibus indutum? Ecce qui in veste pretiosa sunt et deliciis, in domibus regum sunt.
26 But what have ye gone out to see? A prophet? Yea, I say to you, and more than a prophet.
Sed quid existis videre? prophetam? Utique dico vobis, et plus quam prophetam:
27 This is he of whom it is written, “Lo! I send my messenger before thy face, who shall prepare thy way before thee.”
hic est, de quo scriptum est: Ecce mitto angelum meum ante faciem tuam, qui præparabit viam tuam ante te.
28 I say to you, Among those born of women there is no greater prophet than John; but he that is least in the kingdom of God is greater than he.
Dico enim vobis: major inter natos mulierum propheta Joanne Baptista nemo est: qui autem minor est in regno Dei, major est illo.
29 And all the people when they heard him, and the publicans, acknowledged God as righteous by being baptized with the baptism of John.
Et omnis populus audiens et publicani, justificaverunt Deum, baptizati baptismo Joannis.
30 But the Pharisees and the lawyers rejected the purpose of God toward themselves, not being baptized by him.
Pharisæi autem et legisperiti consilium Dei spreverunt in semetipsos, non baptizati ab eo.
31 To what then shall I compare the men of this generation, and what are they like?
Ait autem Dominus: Cui ergo similes dicam homines generationis hujus? et cui similes sunt?
32 They are like children sitting in the market-place, and calling one to another, saying, We piped to you, and ye did not dance; we sung a dirge, and ye did not weep.
Similes sunt pueris sedentibus in foro, et loquentibus ad invicem, et dicentibus: Cantavimus vobis tibiis, et non saltastis: lamentavimus, et non plorastis.
33 For John the Baptist hath come not eating bread, nor drinking wine; and ye say, He hath a demon.
Venit enim Joannes Baptista, neque manducans panem, neque bibens vinum, et dicitis: Dæmonium habet.
34 The Son of man hath come eating and drinking; and ye say, Behold, a glutton and a wine-bibber, a friend of publicans and sinners!
Venit Filius hominis manducans, et bibens, et dicitis: Ecce homo devorator, et bibens vinum, amicus publicanorum et peccatorum.
35 But wisdom is acknowledged by all her children.
Et justificata est sapientia ab omnibus filiis suis.
36 And one of the Pharisees asked him to eat with him; and he went into the Pharisee's house, and reclined at the table.
Rogabat autem illum quidam de pharisæis ut manducaret cum illo. Et ingressus domum pharisæi discubuit.
37 And lo! a woman who was in the city, a sinner, learning that he was at table in the Pharisee's house, brought an alabaster-bottle of ointment,
Et ecce mulier, quæ erat in civitate peccatrix, ut cognovit quod accubuisset in domo pharisæi, attulit alabastrum unguenti:
38 and standing behind at his feet, weeping, began to wet his feet with tears, and wiped them with the hair of her head, and kissed his feet, and anointed them with the ointment.
et stans retro secus pedes ejus, lacrimis cœpit rigare pedes ejus, et capillis capitis sui tergebat, et osculabatur pedes ejus, et unguento ungebat.
39 And the Pharisee who had invited him, when he saw this, said within himself, This man, if he were a prophet, would know who, and what sort of woman, this is that toucheth him; for she is a sinner.
Videns autem pharisæus, qui vocaverat eum, ait intra se dicens: Hic si esset propheta, sciret utique quæ et qualis est mulier, quæ tangit eum: quia peccatrix est.
40 And Jesus answering said to him, Simon, I have somewhat to say to thee. And he saith, Teacher, say on.
Et respondens Jesus, dixit ad illum: Simon, habeo tibi aliquid dicere. At ille ait: Magister, dic.
41 A certain money-lender had two debtors; one owed five hundred denaries, and the other fifty.
Duo debitores erant cuidam fœneratori: unus debebat denarios quingentos, et alius quinquaginta.
42 When they had nothing to pay, he freely remitted the debt of both. Which of them, now, will love him the most?
Non habentibus illis unde redderent, donavit utrisque. Quis ergo eum plus diligit?
43 Simon answering said, He, I suppose, to whom he remitted the most. And he said to him, Thou hast judged rightly.
Respondens Simon dixit: Æstimo quia is cui plus donavit. At ille dixit ei: Recte judicasti.
44 And turning to the woman, he said to Simon, Seest thou this woman? I entered thy house, no water didst thou give me for my feet; but she wet my feet with tears, and wiped them with her hair.
Et conversus ad mulierem, dixit Simoni: Vides hanc mulierem? Intravi in domum tuam, aquam pedibus meis non dedisti: hæc autem lacrimis rigavit pedes meos, et capillis suis tersit.
45 No kiss didst thou give me; but she, from the time I came in, did not cease to kiss my feet.
Osculum mihi non dedisti: hæc autem ex quo intravit, non cessavit osculari pedes meos.
46 My head with oil thou didst not anoint; but she anointed my feet with costly ointment.
Oleo caput meum non unxisti: hæc autem unguento unxit pedes meos.
47 Wherefore, I say to thee, her many sins have been forgiven; for she loved much; but he to whom little is forgiven loveth little.
Propter quod dico tibi: remittuntur ei peccata multa, quoniam dilexit multum. Cui autem minus dimittitur, minus diligit.
48 And he said to her, Thy sins have been forgiven.
Dixit autem ad illam: Remittuntur tibi peccata.
49 And those who were at table with him began to say within themselves, Who is this that even forgiveth sins?
Et cœperunt qui simul accumbebant, dicere intra se: Quis est hic qui etiam peccata dimittit?
50 But he said to the woman, Thy faith hath saved thee; go in peace.
Dixit autem ad mulierem: Fides tua te salvam fecit: vade in pace.
