< Marcum 2 >
1 Et iterum intravit Capharnaum post dies,
And again he entered into Capernaum, after some days; and it was noised that he was in the house.
2 et auditum est quod in domo esset, et convenerunt multi, ita ut non caperet neque ad januam, et loquebatur eis verbum.
And straightway many were gathered together, insomuch that there was no room to receive them, no, not so much as about the door: and he preached the word unto them.
3 Et venerunt ad eum ferentes paralyticum, qui a quatuor portabatur.
And they come unto him, bringing one sick of the palsy, which was borne of four.
4 Et cum non possent offerre eum illi præ turba, nudaverunt tectum ubi erat: et patefacientes submiserunt grabatum in quo paralyticus jacebat.
And when they could not come nigh unto him for the press, they uncovered the roof where he was: and when they had broken it up, they let down the bed wherein the sick of the palsy lay.
5 Cum autem vidisset Jesus fidem illorum, ait paralytico: Fili, dimittuntur tibi peccata tua.
When Yahushua saw their faith, he said unto the sick of the palsy, Son, thy sins be forgiven thee.
6 Erant autem illic quidam de scribis sedentes, et cogitantes in cordibus suis:
But there were certain of the scribes sitting there, and reasoning in their hearts,
7 Quid hic sic loquitur? blasphemat. Quis potest dimittere peccata, nisi solus Deus?
Why doth this man thus speak blasphemies? who can forgive sins but Elohim only?
8 Quo statim cognito Jesus spiritu suo, quia sic cogitarent intra se, dicit illis: Quid ista cogitatis in cordibus vestris?
And immediately when Yahushua perceived in his spirit that they so reasoned within themselves, he said unto them, Why reason ye these things in your hearts?
9 Quid est facilius dicere paralytico: Dimittuntur tibi peccata: an dicere: Surge, tolle grabatum tuum, et ambula?
Whether is it easier to say to the sick of the palsy, Thy sins be forgiven thee; or to say, Arise, and take up thy bed, and walk?
10 Ut autem sciatis quia Filius hominis habet potestatem in terra dimittendi peccata (ait paralytico),
But that ye may know that the Son of man hath power on earth to forgive sins, (he saith to the sick of the palsy, )
11 tibi dico: Surge, tolle grabatum tuum, et vade in domum tuam.
I say unto thee, Arise, and take up thy bed, and go thy way into thine house.
12 Et statim surrexit ille: et, sublato grabato, abiit coram omnibus, ita ut mirarentur omnes, et honorificent Deum, dicentes: Quia numquam sic vidimus.
And immediately he arose, took up the bed, and went forth before them all; insomuch that they were all amazed, and glorified YHWH, saying, We never saw it on this fashion.
13 Et egressus est rursus ad mare, omnisque turba veniebat ad eum, et docebat eos.
And he went forth again by the sea side; and all the multitude resorted unto him, and he taught them.
14 Et cum præteriret, vidit Levi Alphæi sedentem ad telonium, et ait illi: Sequere me. Et surgens secutus est eum.
And as he passed by, he saw Levi the son of Alphaeus sitting at the receipt of custom, and said unto him, Follow me. And he arose and followed him.
15 Et factum est, cum accumberet in domo illius, multi publicani et peccatores simul discumbebant cum Jesu et discipulis ejus: erant enim multi, qui et sequebantur eum.
And it came to pass, that, as Yahushua sat at meat in his house, many publicans and sinners sat also together with Yahushua and his disciples: for there were many, and they followed him.
16 Et scribæ et pharisæi videntes quia manducaret cum publicanis et peccatoribus, dicebant discipulis ejus: Quare cum publicanis et peccatoribus manducat et bibit Magister vester?
And when the scribes and Pharisees saw him eat with publicans and sinners, they said unto his disciples, How is it that he eateth and drinketh with publicans and sinners?
17 Hoc audito Jesus ait illis: Non necesse habent sani medico, sed qui male habent: non enim veni vocare justos, sed peccatores.
When Yahushua heard it, he saith unto them, They that are whole have no need of the physician, but they that are sick: I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.
18 Et erant discipuli Joannis et pharisæi jejunantes: et veniunt, et dicunt illi: Quare discipuli Joannis et pharisæorum jejunant, tui autem discipuli non jejunant?
And the disciples of John and of the Pharisees used to fast: and they come and say unto him, Why do the disciples of John and of the Pharisees fast, but thy disciples fast not?
19 Et ait illis Jesus: Numquid possunt filii nuptiarum, quamdiu sponsus cum illis est, jejunare? Quanto tempore habent secum sponsum, non possunt jejunare.
And Yahushua said unto them, Can the children of the bridechamber fast, while the bridegroom is with them? as long as they have the bridegroom with them, they cannot fast.
20 Venient autem dies cum auferetur ab eis sponsus: et tunc jejunabunt in illis diebus.
But the days will come, when the bridegroom shall be taken away from them, and then shall they fast in those days.
21 Nemo assumentum panni rudis assuit vestimento veteri: alioquin aufert supplementum novum a veteri, et major scissura fit.
No man also seweth a piece of new cloth on an old garment: else the new piece that filled it up taketh away from the old, and the rent is made worse.
22 Et nemo mittit vinum novum in utres veteres: alioquin dirumpet vinum utres, et vinum effundetur, et utres peribunt: sed vinum novum in utres novos mitti debet.
And no man putteth new wine into old bottles: else the new wine doth burst the bottles, and the wine is spilled, and the bottles will be marred: but new wine must be put into new bottles.
23 Et factum est iterum cum Dominus sabbatis ambularet per sata, et discipuli ejus cœperunt progredi, et vellere spicas.
And it came to pass, that he went through the corn fields on the Sabbath day; and his disciples began, as they went, to pluck the ears of corn.
24 Pharisæi autem dicebant ei: Ecce, quid faciunt sabbatis quod non licet?
And the Pharisees said unto him, Behold, why do they on the Sabbath day that which is not lawful?
25 Et ait illis: Numquam legistis quid fecerit David, quando necessitatem habuit, et esuriit ipse, et qui cum eo erant?
And he said unto them, Have ye never read what David did, when he had need, and was an hungred, he, and they that were with him?
26 quomodo introivit in domum Dei sub Abiathar principe sacerdotum, et panes propositionis manducavit, quos non licebat manducare, nisi sacerdotibus, et dedit eis qui cum eo erant?
How he went into the house of YHWH in the days of Abiathar the high priest, and did eat the shewbread, which is not lawful to eat but for the priests, and gave also to them which were with him?
27 Et dicebat eis: Sabbatum propter hominem factum est, et non homo propter sabbatum.
And he said unto them, The Sabbath was made for man, and not man for the Sabbath:
28 Itaque Dominus est Filius hominis, etiam sabbati.
Therefore the Son of man is master also of the Sabbath.
