< Luke 7 >
1 After Jesus finished saying this to the people, he went [with his disciples] to Capernaum [town].
(since *N(k)O*) to fulfill all the/this/who declaration it/s/he toward the/this/who hearing the/this/who a people to enter toward Capernaum
2 There was a Roman army officer there who had a slave whom he thought highly of. This slave was so sick that he was about to die.
centurion then one slave badly to have/be to ensue to decease which to be it/s/he valued/honored
3 When the officer heard about Jesus, he [summoned] some Jewish elders. He told them to go to Jesus and ask him to come and heal his slave.
to hear then about the/this/who Jesus to send to/with it/s/he elder: Elder the/this/who Jew to ask it/s/he that to come/go to save the/this/who slave it/s/he
4 When they came to where Jesus was, they earnestly asked Jesus [to return with them]. They said, “This officer deserves that you [(sg)] do this [for him],
the/this/who then to come to/with the/this/who Jesus to plead/comfort it/s/he diligently to say that/since: that worthy to be which (to furnish occasion *N(K)O*) this/he/she/it
5 because he loves us [Jewish] people, and he [paid the money to] build a synagogue for us.”
to love for the/this/who Gentiles me and the/this/who synagogue it/s/he to build me
6 So Jesus went with them. When he was near the [officer’s] house, the officer [decided that it was not necessary for Jesus to come to his house. So he] summoned some friends. He [told them to] go to Jesus and tell him this: “Lord/Sir, do not bother to come. [Because I am a non-Jew], I am not worthy for you [(sg)], [a Jew], to come into my house [MTY] [and associate with me].
the/this/who then Jesus to travel with it/s/he already then it/s/he no far to have in full away from the/this/who home to send (to/with it/s/he *ko*) friendly/friend the/this/who centurion to say it/s/he lord: God not to trouble no for sufficient to be in order that/to by/under: under the/this/who roof me to enter
7 I did not feel worthy to come to you, [either]. But [please] command [that] my servant [be healed], and he will become well!
therefore nor I/we to deem worthy to/with you to come/go but to say word and (to heal *N(k)O*) the/this/who child me
8 [I believe this] because, as for me, there are people who have authority over me [and I obey them]. I also have soldiers under my [authority]. When I say to one of them, ‘Go!’ he goes. When I say to another ‘Come!’ he comes. When I say to my slave, ‘Do this!’ he does it. [And I believe that you speak with a similar kind of authority].”
and for I/we a human to be by/under: under authority to appoint to have/be by/under: under I/we soldier and to say this/he/she/it to travel and to travel and another to come/go and to come/go and the/this/who slave me to do/make: do this/he/she/it and to do/make: do
9 When [the officer’s friends arrived and] told that to Jesus, he marveled at what [the officer had said]. Then he turned and said to the crowd that was going with him, “I tell you, I have never before found anyone who trusted [in me like this non-Jewish man does]. No one from Israel, [where I would expect people to believe in me], has trusted in me like he has!”
to hear then this/he/she/it the/this/who Jesus to marvel it/s/he and to turn the/this/who to follow it/s/he crowd to say to say you (nor *NK(o)*) in/on/among the/this/who Israel so great faith to find/meet
10 When those men returned to the officer’s house, they found that the slave was well.
and to return toward the/this/who house: home the/this/who to send to find/meet the/this/who (be weak: ill *K*) slave be healthy
11 Soon after that, Jesus went to a town called Nain. His disciples and a large crowd [of other people] went with him.
and to be in/on/among (the/this/who *N(k)O*) next/afterward (to travel *N(k)O*) toward city to call: call Nain and to go with it/s/he the/this/who disciple it/s/he (sufficient *K*) and crowd much
12 As they approached the town gate, the corpse of a young man who had just died was being carried out [on a stretcher] {[people] were carrying out [on a stretcher] the corpse of a young man who had just died}. His mother was a widow, and he was her only son. A large group of people from the town were accompanying them.
as/when then to come near the/this/who gate the/this/who city and look! to carry out to die/be dead unique son the/this/who mother it/s/he and it/s/he to be widow and crowd the/this/who city sufficient to be with it/s/he
13 When the Lord saw her, he pitied her. He said to her, “Do not cry!”
and to perceive: see it/s/he the/this/who lord: God to pity upon/to/against it/s/he and to say it/s/he not to weep
14 Then, [ignoring the Jewish laws about not coming near a corpse], he came close and touched the stretcher [on which the body was lying]. So the men carrying it stood still. He said, “Young man, I say to you, get up!”
and to come near/agree to touch the/this/who bier the/this/who then to carry to stand and to say young man you to say to arise
15 The man sat up and began to talk! Jesus returned him to his mother [to care for her].
and to sit up the/this/who dead and be first to speak and to give it/s/he the/this/who mother it/s/he
16 Then everyone [there] was amazed/awestruck. They praised God, saying, “A great prophet has come among us!” They also said, “God has come to help his people!”
to take then fear (all *N(k)O*) and to glorify the/this/who God to say that/since: that prophet great (to arise *N(k)O*) in/on/among me and that/since: that to visit/care for the/this/who God the/this/who a people it/s/he
17 [Then they] reported what Jesus [had done] throughout all of Judea [district] and other nearby areas.
and to go out the/this/who word this/he/she/it in/on/among all the/this/who Judea about it/s/he and (in/on/among *ko*) all the/this/who region
18 The disciples of John [the Baptizer went to the prison where John was and] told him about those things.
and to announce John the/this/who disciple it/s/he about all this/he/she/it
19 So [one day] John summoned two [of his disciples] and [told them] to go to the Lord and ask him: “Are you [the Messiah who the prophets prophesied would come], or is it someone else that we should expect [to come]?”
and to call to/summon two one the/this/who disciple it/s/he the/this/who John to send to/with the/this/who (lord: God *N(K)O*) to say you to be the/this/who to come/go or (another *NK(o)*) to look for
20 When those two men came to Jesus, they said, “John the Baptizer sent us to ask you [(sg)] this: Are you [the Messiah that] we are expecting [God] to send, or shall we [(exc)] expect someone else?”
to come then to/with it/s/he the/this/who man to say John the/this/who one who baptizes (to send *N(k)O*) me to/with you to say you to be the/this/who to come/go or another to look for
21 At that very time Jesus was healing many people of their diseases and [other] sicknesses, he was [casting out] evil spirits, and he was causing many blind people to be able to see.
in/on/among (that *N(k)O*) (then *k*) the/this/who hour to serve/heal much away from illness and whip and spirit/breath: spirit evil/bad and blind much to give grace (the/this/who *k*) to see
22 So he answered those two men, “Go back and report to John what you have seen [me doing] and what you have heard [me telling people. I am enabling] blind people to see. [I am enabling] lame people to walk. [I am] healing people who have leprosy. [I am enabling] deaf people to hear. [I am causing] dead people to become alive again, [and I am] telling [God’s] good message to poor people.
and to answer (the/this/who Jesus *k*) to say it/s/he to travel to announce John which to perceive: see and to hear (that/since: that *ko*) blind to look up/again lame to walk leprous to clean (and *no*) deaf/mute to hear dead to arise poor to speak good news
23 [Also tell John that God] is pleased with those who do not stop believing in me [because what I do is not what they expect the Messiah to do].”
and blessed to be which if not to cause to stumble in/on/among I/we
24 When the men whom John had sent left, Jesus began to talk to the crowd of people about John. He said to them, “[Think about] what sort of person you went to see in the desolate area [when you went there to see John] [RHQ]. [You did not go there to listen to a man who constantly changed the nature of his message] [MET], [like] a reed that is blown back and forth by the wind [RHQ].
to go away then the/this/who angel: messenger John be first to say to/with (the/this/who crowd *NK(o)*) about John which? (to go out *N(k)O*) toward the/this/who deserted to look at reed/stick/pen by/under: by wind to shake
25 Then what kind of man did you go there to see [RHQ]? Was he [RHQ] a man who wore expensive clothes? No! [You know very well that] people who wear beautiful clothes and live in luxury are in kings’ palaces, [not in the desolate areas]!
but which? (to go out *N(k)O*) to perceive: see a human in/on/among soft/effeminate clothing to clothe look! the/this/who in/on/among clothing honored and self-indulgence be already in/on/among the/this/who palace to be
26 Then what [kind of person] did you go to see? [Did you] [RHQ] [go there to see John because he was] a prophet? Yes! But I will tell you that [John is] more [important] than an [ordinary] prophet.
but which? (to go out *N(k)O*) to perceive: see prophet yes to say you and more excessive prophet
27 He is the one about whom [these words] that God said to the Messiah have been written {[the prophet Malachi] wrote [these words]} [in the Scriptures]: ‘Listen! I am going to send my messenger ahead of you [(sg)] [SYN]. He will prepare [people] for your coming.’
this/he/she/it to be about which to write look! (I/we *k*) to send the/this/who angel: messenger me before face you which to prepare the/this/who road you before you
28 I tell you that from among all the people who have ever lived, [God considers that] no one is greater than John. However, [God considers] everyone who has let God rule their [lives] [MET] to be greater than [John], [even if they are] insignificant [people].”
to say (for *k*) you great in/on/among born woman (prophet *KO*) (the/this/who *k*) (John *N(K)O*) none to be the/this/who then small in/on/among the/this/who kingdom the/this/who God great it/s/he to be
29 When they heard [what Jesus said] (OR, [what John preached]), all the people, including tax collectors, [whom many people despised], agreed that God’s way was right. By being baptized by John {By [letting] John baptize them}, [they had agreed that what God required people to do in order to be saved was right].
and all the/this/who a people to hear and the/this/who tax collector to justify the/this/who God to baptize the/this/who baptism John
30 But the Pharisees and the men who taught the [Jewish] laws were not baptized by John {did not [let] John baptize them} because they rejected what God wanted them to do.
the/this/who then Pharisee and the/this/who lawyer the/this/who plan the/this/who God to reject toward themself not to baptize by/under: by it/s/he
31 [Then Jesus also said], “[Many of] you people have heard what [John and I] have taught. (I will illustrate what you are like./Do you know what [many of] you people who have heard what [John and I] have taught are like?) [RHQ]
(to say then the/this/who lord: God *K*) which? therefore/then to liken the/this/who a human the/this/who generation this/he/she/it and which? to be like
32 You are like children who are [playing games] in an open area. [Some of them] are calling to [the others], saying, ‘We [(exc)] played happy music for you on the flute, but you did not dance! Then we sang sad funeral songs for you, but you did not cry!’
like to be child the/this/who in/on/among marketplace to sit and to call to/summon one another (which *no*) (and *k*) (to say *N(k)(o)*) to play the flute you and no to dance to lament (you *k*) and no to weep
33 [Similarly, you people are dissatisfied with both John the Baptizer and me]! When John came and [preached to you], he did not eat [ordinary] food [SYN] or drink wine, [like most people do]. But you [rejected him], saying, ‘A demon is controlling him!’
to come/go for John the/this/who one who baptizes (not *N(k)O*) to eat bread neither to drink wine and to say demon to have/be
34 In [contrast], [I], the one who came from heaven, eat [the same food] and drink [wine as others do]. But you [reject me], saying, ‘Look! [This man] eats too much food and drinks too much wine, and he associates with tax collectors and [other] sinners!’
to come/go the/this/who son the/this/who a human to eat and to drink and to say look! a human glutton and drunkard friendly/friend tax collector and sinful
35 But those who are [truly God’s] children [PRS] realize that [what John and I do is truly] wise.”
and to justify the/this/who wisdom away from all the/this/who child it/s/he
36 [One day] one of the Pharisees [named Simon] invited Jesus to eat a meal with him. So Jesus went to the man’s house and reclined [to eat].
to ask then one it/s/he the/this/who Pharisee in order that/to to eat with/after it/s/he and to enter toward (the/this/who house: home *N(k)O*) the/this/who Pharisee (to sit *N(K)O*)
37 There was a woman in that city [who many people knew had been] a prostitute [EUP]. She heard that Jesus was eating in the Pharisee’s house. So she went there, taking a stone jar that contained perfume.
and look! woman who/which to be in/on/among the/this/who city sinful (and *no*) to come to know that/since: that (to recline *N(k)O*) in/on/among the/this/who home the/this/who Pharisee to bring/be repaid jar ointment
38 [As the people there were reclining to eat], the woman stood behind [Jesus, at his] feet. As she was crying [because she was sorry for her sins, her tears fell on Jesus’ feet]. Then she wiped his feet with her hair, and kissed his feet, and anointed them with the perfume.
and to stand after from/with/beside the/this/who foot it/s/he to weep the/this/who teardrop be first to rain down the/this/who foot it/s/he and the/this/who hair the/this/who head it/s/he to wipe off and to kiss the/this/who foot it/s/he and to anoint the/this/who ointment
39 When the Pharisee who had invited [Jesus] saw that, he thought, “[Prophets know about other people’s lives], [so] if Jesus were a prophet, he would have known who this woman is who is touching him, and what kind of a person she is. He would have known that she is a prostitute! [EUP]”
to perceive: see then the/this/who Pharisee the/this/who to call: call it/s/he to say in/on/among themself to say this/he/she/it if to be (the/this/who *o*) prophet to know if which? and of what kind? the/this/who woman who/which to touch it/s/he that/since: since sinful to be
40 Jesus said to him, “Simon, there is something I want to tell you [(sg)].” He replied, “Teacher, what is it?”
and to answer the/this/who Jesus to say to/with it/s/he Simon to have/be you one to say the/this/who then teacher to say to assert
41 Jesus replied, “Two people owed some money to a man who [earned money by] lending [it to others]. One owed him 500 silver coins, and the other owed him 50 silver coins.
two debtor to be moneylender one the/this/who one to owe denarius five hundred the/this/who then other fifty
42 Neither of them was able to pay back [what he owed], so the man [very kindly] said that they did not have to pay back anything. So, which of those two men will love that man more?”
not to have/be (then *k*) it/s/he to pay both to give grace which? therefore/then it/s/he (to say *k*) greater to love it/s/he
43 Simon replied, “I think that the one who owed the most money and did not have to pay it back [will love him more].” Jesus said to him, “That is correct.”
to answer (then the/this/who *ko*) Simon to say to take up/suppose that/since: that which the/this/who greater to give grace the/this/who then to say it/s/he correctly to judge
44 Then he turned toward the woman, and said to Simon, “(Think about [what] this woman [has done]!/Do you [(sg)] see [what] this woman [has done]?) [RHQ] When I entered your house, you [did not follow our custom of welcoming guests by] giving me any water [to wash] my feet, but this woman has wet my feet with her tears and then wiped them with her hair!
and to turn to/with the/this/who woman the/this/who Simon to assert to see this/he/she/it the/this/who woman to enter you toward the/this/who home water me upon/to/against (the/this/who *ko*) foot (me *k*) no to give this/he/she/it then the/this/who teardrop to rain down me the/this/who foot and the/this/who hair (the/this/who head *K*) it/s/he to wipe off
45 You did not [follow our custom of greeting by] kissing me, but since I came in, this woman has not stopped kissing my feet!
kiss me no to give this/he/she/it then away from which to enter no to stop to kiss me the/this/who foot
46 You did not [follow our custom of welcoming guests by] anointing my head with [olive] oil, but she has anointed my feet with fragrant perfume.
olive oil the/this/who head me no to anoint this/he/she/it then ointment to anoint the/this/who foot me
47 So I will tell you that even though this woman has sinned very much, she has been forgiven {[I] have forgiven her}. [By what she has done she has shown that] she loves [me] very much. But a person who has [sinned] just a little bit, but whom [I] have forgiven, will love [me just a little bit].”
which because of to say you to release: forgive the/this/who sin it/s/he the/this/who much that/since: since to love much which then little/few to release: forgive little/few to love
48 Then he said to the woman, “You have been forgiven {[I have] forgiven [you]} [for] your sins.”
to say then it/s/he to release: forgive you the/this/who sin
49 Then those who were eating with him said among themselves, “(This man must [think that he is God]!/Who does this man [think that he] is [RHQ]), saying that he can forgive [people for] their sins?”
and be first the/this/who to dine with to say in/on/among themself which? this/he/she/it to be which and sin to release: forgive
50 But Jesus said to the woman, “Because you have trusted [PRS] [in me, God] has saved you [from the guilt of your sins]. May [God] give you inner peace as you go!”
to say then to/with the/this/who woman the/this/who faith you to save you to travel toward peace
