Matthew 9
1 And, entering into a boat, he crossed over, and came into his own city.
Et ascendens Iesus in naviculam, transfretavit, et venit in civitatem suam.
2 And lo! they were bringing unto him a paralytic, on a couch, laid prostrate; and Jesus, seeing, their faith, said to the paralytic, —Take courage! child, forgiven are thy sins.
Et ecce offerebant ei paralyticum iacentem in lecto. Et videns autem Iesus fidem illorum, dixit paralytico: Confide fili, remittuntur tibi peccata tua.
3 And lo! certain of the scribes, said within themselves, —This man, speaketh profanely!
Et ecce quidam de Scribis dixerunt intra se: Hic blasphemat.
4 And Jesus, knowing, their inward thoughts, said, —To what end are ye cherishing evil thoughts within your hearts?
Et cum vidisset Iesus cogitationes eorum, dixit: Ut quid cogitatis mala in cordibus vestris?
5 For which is easier—To say, Forgiven are thy sins, —or to say, Rise and be walking!
Quid est facilius dicere: Dimittuntur tibi peccata tua: an dicere: Surge, et ambula?
6 But, that ye may know, that the Son of Man hath, authority, upon the earth, to be forgiving sins, then, saith he to the paralytic, —Rise! take up thy couch, and withdraw unto thy house.
Ut autem sciatis, quia filius hominis habet potestatem in terra dimittendi peccata, tunc ait paralytico: Surge, tolle lectum tuum, et vade in domum tuam.
7 And, rising, he departed unto his house.
Et surrexit, et abiit in domum suam.
8 Now the multitudes, seeing, were struck with fear, and glorified the God who had given authority, such as this, unto men.
Videntes autem turbae timuerunt, et glorificaverunt Deum, qui dedit potestatem talem hominibus.
9 And Jesus, passing aside from thence, saw a man presiding over the tax-office, called, Matthew, and saith unto him, —Be following me. And, arising, he followed him.
Et, cum transiret inde Iesus, vidit hominem sedentem in telonio, Matthaeum nomine. Et ait illi: Sequere me. Et surgens, secutus est eum.
10 And it came to pass, as he was reclining in the house, that lo! many tax-collectors and sinners, came, and were reclining together with Jesus and his disciples.
Et factum est discumbente eo in domo, ecce multi publicani, et peccatores venientes discumbebant cum Iesu, et discipulis eius.
11 And, the Pharisees, observing it, began to say unto his disciples, —Wherefore, with tax-collectors and sinners, doth your Teacher eat?
Et videntes Pharisaei, dicebant discipulis eius: Quare cum publicanis, et peccatoribus manducat Magister vester?
12 And, he, hearing it, said, —No need have the strong, of a physician, but they who are sick.
At Iesus audiens, ait: Non est opus valentibus medicus, sed male habentibus.
13 But go ye, and learn what this meaneth, —Mercy, I desire, and not, sacrifice; For I came, not to call the righteous, but sinners.
Euntes autem discite quid est: Misericordiam volo, et non sacrificium. Non enim veni vocare iustos, sed peccatores.
14 Then come near unto him the disciples of John, saying, —Wherefore do, we, and the Pharisees, fast, whereas, thy disciples, fast not?
Tunc accesserunt ad eum discipuli Ioannis, dicentes: Quare nos, et Pharisaei ieiunamus frequenter: discipuli autem tui non ieiunant?
15 And Jesus said unto them, —Can, the sons of the bridechamber, mourn, so long as, the bridegroom, is, with them? But days will come, when the bridegroom, shall be taken from them, and, then, will they fast.
Et ait illis Iesus: Numquid possunt filii sponsi lugere, quamdiu cum illis est sponsus? Venient autem dies cum auferetur ab eis sponsus: et tunc ieiunabunt.
16 Howbeit, no one, layeth on a patch of unshrunk cloth, upon an old garment, —for the shrinking of it teareth away from the garment, and, a worse rent, is made.
Nemo autem immittit commissuram panni rudis in vestimentum vetus: tollit enim plenitudinem eius a vestimento: et peior scissura fit.
17 Neither pour they new wine into old skins: otherwise at least, the skins are burst, and, the wine, runneth out, and, the skins, are spoiled, —but they pour new wine into unused skins, and, both, are together preserved.
Neque mittunt vinum novum in utres veteres. alioquin rumpuntur utres, et vinum effunditur, et utres pereunt. Sed vinum novum in utres novos mittunt: et ambo conservantur.
18 While, these things, he was speaking unto them, lo! a [certain] ruler, came, and began bowing down to him, saying, —My daughter, just now died! But come, and lay thy hand upon, her, and she shall live.
Haec illo loquente ad eos, ecce princeps unus accessit, et adorabat eum, dicens: Domine, filia mea modo defuncta est: sed veni, impone manum tuam super eam, et vivet.
19 And Jesus, arising, was following him, also his disciples.
Et surgens Iesus, sequebatur eum, et discipuli eius.
20 And lo! a woman, having a flow of blood twelve years, coming near behind, touched the fringe of his mantle.
Et ecce mulier, quae sanguinis fluxum patiebatur duodecim annis, accessit retro, et tetigit fimbriam vestimenti eius.
21 For she kept saying within herself, —If only I touch his mantle, I shall be made well!
Dicebat enim intra se: Si tetigero tantum vestimentum eius: salva ero.
22 And, Jesus, turning and seeing her, said, —Take courage! daughter, Thy faith, hath made thee well. And the woman was made well, from that hour.
At Iesus conversus, et videns eam, dixit: Confide filia, fides tua te salvam fecit. Et salva facta est mulier ex illa hora.
23 And, Jesus, coming, into the house of the ruler, and seeing the flute-players and the multitude in confusion, was saying:
Et cum venisset Iesus in domum principis, et vidisset tibicines et turbam tumultuantem, dicebat:
24 Give place! for the maiden died not, but is sleeping. And they began to deride him.
Recedite: non est enim mortua puella, sed dormit. Et deridebant eum.
25 But, when the multitude had been put forth, he went in, and grasped her hand, —and the maiden arose.
Et cum eiecta esset turba, intravit: et tenuit manum eius, et dixit: Puella surge: Et surrexit puella.
26 And forth went this report, into the whole of that land.
Et exiit fama haec in universam terram illam.
27 And, as Jesus, was passing aside from thence, there followed him, two blind men, crying aloud and saying, —Have mercy on us, O Son of David!
Et transeunte inde Iesu, secuti sunt eum duo caeci, clamantes, et dicentes: Miserere nostri, fili David.
28 And, when he entered the house, the blind men came unto him, —and Jesus saith unto them, Believe ye, that I can, do this? They say unto him, Yea, Lord!
Cum autem venisset domum, accesserunt ad eum caeci. Et dicit eis Iesus: Creditis quia hoc possum facere vobis? Dicunt ei: Utique, Domine.
29 Then touched he their eyes, saying, According to your faith, be it done unto you.
Tunc tetigit oculos eorum, dicens: Secundum fidem vestram fiat vobis.
30 And their eyes were opened. And Jesus, sternly charged them, saying, Mind! let no one know!
Et aperti sunt oculi eorum: et comminatus est illis Iesus, dicens: Videte ne quis sciat.
31 They, however, going forth, made him known throughout the whole of that land.
Illi autem exeuntes, diffamaverunt eum in tota terra illa.
32 And, as, they, were going forth, lo! there was brought to him, a dumb man, demonized.
Egressis autem illis, ecce obtulerunt ei hominem mutum, daemonium habentem.
33 And, the demon being cast out, the dumb man spoke; and the multitudes marvelled, saying, —Never, was it seen thus, in Israel.
Et eiecto daemonio, locutus est mutus, et miratae sunt turbae, dicentes: Numquam apparuit sic in Israel.
34 [But, the Pharisees, beg to say, In the ruler of the demons, is he casting out the demons.]
Pharisaei autem dicebant: In principe daemoniorum eiicit daemones.
35 And Jesus was going round all the cities and the villages, teaching in their synagogues, and proclaiming the glad-message of the kingdom, —and curing every disease, and every infirmity.
Et circuibat Iesus omnes civitates, et castella, docens in synagogis eorum, et praedicans evangelium regni, et curans omnem languorem, et omnem infirmitatem.
36 But, seeing the multitudes, he was moved with compassion concerning them, because they were torn and thrown down, like sheep hating no shepherd.
Videns autem turbas, misertus est eis: quia erant vexati, et iacentes sicut oves non habentes pastorem.
37 Then, saith he unto his disciples, The harvest, indeed, is great, but, the labourers, few;
Tunc dicit discipulis suis: Messis quidem multa, operarii autem pauci.
38 Beg ye, therefore, of the Lord of the harvest, —That he would thrust forth labourers, into his harvest.
Rogate ergo Dominum messis, ut mittat operarios in messem suam.
