1 Now, when He had ended all His sayings in the audience of the people, He entered Village of Comfort (Capernaum).
2 And a certain centurion's servant, who was dear to him,
was sick, and ready to die.
3 But when he heard about I AM is Our Salvation (Yeshua),
he sent the elders of the Jews to Him, beseeching Him that He would come and
heal his servant.
4 They went to I AM is Our Salvation (Yeshua) and petitioned
Him instantly, saying that he was worthy and He should do this:
5 For he loves our nation, and he has built us a
synagogue.
6 So I AM is Our Salvation (Yeshua) went with them. And
when He was now not far from the house, the centurion sent friends to Him,
saying to Him, “Lord, do not trouble Yourself: for I am not worthy that You should
enter under my roof:
7 That is why I didn’t come to You myself: just say the
word, and my servant shall be healed.
8 For I also am a man under authority, having under me
soldiers, and I say to one, Go, and he goes; and to another, Come, and he comes;
and to my servant, Do this, and he does it.”
9 When I AM is Our Salvation (Yeshua) heard these things,
He marveled at him, turned around, and said to the people that followed Him, “I say to you, I have not found so great
faith, no, not in Israel.”
10 And they that were sent, returning to the house, found
the servant who had been sick whole.
11 The day after that, He went into a city called Beauty
(Nain), and many of His disciples went with Him, along with many other people.
12 Now when He came near the gate of the city, behold, a
dead man was being carried out, the only son of his mother, and she was a
widow: and many people of the city were with her.
13 And when the Lord saw her, He had compassion on her,
and said to her, “Weep not.”
14 He came and touched the bier, and those that bore him
stood still. And He said, “Young
man, I say to you, Arise.”
15 The man who was dead sat up and began to speak. And He
delivered him to his mother.
16 This caused a great reverence on all that were there:
and they glorified God, saying that a great prophet has risen among us; and that
God has visited His people.
17 So this news of Him went throughout all the Land of
Praise (Judaea), and throughout all the region round about.
18 Then the disciples of I AM is a Gracious Giver (John),
told him of all these things.
19 Then I AM is a Gracious Giver (John) called to him two
of his disciples and sent them to I AM is Our Salvation (Yeshua), saying, “Are You
He that should come? Or should we look for another?”
20 When the men came to Him, they said, “I AM is a
Gracious Giver (John) the Baptist has sent us to You, saying, Are You He that
should come? Or should we look for another?”
21 And in that same hour, He cured many of their
infirmities and plagues, and of evil spirits; and to many that were blind He
gave sight.
22
Then I AM is Our Salvation (Yeshua) answering said to them, “Go your way, and
tell I AM is a Gracious Giver (John) the things you have seen and heard; how
the blind see, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead
are raised, to the poor the gospel is preached.
23 And
blessed is he who is not offended in Me.”
24 When the messengers of I AM is a Gracious Giver (John)
departed, He began to speak to the people concerning I AM is a Gracious Giver
(John), “What did you go
out into the wilderness to see? A reed shaken with the wind?
25 What
did you go out to see? A man clothed in soft robes? Look, those who are
gorgeously attired and live in luxury are in the courts of kings.
26 But
did you go out to see? A prophet? Yes, I say to you, and much more than a
prophet.
27
This is he, of whom it is written, ‘Behold, I send my messenger before Your
face, which shall prepare Your way before You.’
28 For
I say to you, among those that are born of women there is not a greater prophet
than I AM is a Gracious Giver (John) the Baptist: but he that is least in the Kingdom
of God is greater than he.”
29 All the people who heard him, even the publicans,
justified God, having been baptized with the baptism of I AM is a Gracious
Giver (John).
30 But the Pharisees and lawyers rejected the counsel of
God against themselves, being not baptized of him.
31 Then the Lord said, “How shall I describe the men of this generation? And
what are they like?
32
They are like children sitting in the marketplace, and calling one to another,
and saying, ‘We have piped for you, and you have not danced; we have mourned with
you, and you have not wept.’
33 For
I AM is a Gracious Giver (John) the Baptist came neither eating bread nor
drinking wine; and you say, He has a devil.
34 The
Son of Man has come eating and drinking; and you say, Behold a gluttonous man,
and a winebibber, a friend of publicans and sinners!
35 But
wisdom is justified of all her children.”
36 Then one of the Pharisees asked Him to eat with him. So,
He went into the Pharisee's house and sat down to eat.
37 And, behold, a woman in the city, who was a sinner,
when she knew that I AM is Our Salvation (Yeshua) sat eating in the Pharisee's
house, brought an alabaster box of ointment,
38 And stood at His feet behind Him weeping, and began to
wash His feet with tears, and wiped them with the hairs of her head, and kissed
His feet, and anointed them with the ointment.
39 Now, when the Pharisee who had invited Him saw it, he spoke
within himself, saying, “This man, if He were a prophet, would have known who
and what manner of woman this is that touches Him: for she is a sinner.”
40 And I AM is Our Salvation (Yeshua) responding said to
him, “Heard (Simon), I have
something to say to you.” And he replied, “Master, say on.”
41 “There
was a certain creditor who had two debtors: the one owed five hundred pence,
and the other fifty.
42 And
when they had nothing to pay, he frankly forgave them both. Tell me, therefore,
which of them will love him most?”
43 Heard (Simon) answered, “I suppose the one whom he
forgave most.” And He said to him, “You have rightly judged.”
44 Then He turned to the woman, and said to Heard (Simon),
“Do you see this woman? I
entered your house, you gave me no water for my feet, but she has washed my
feet with her tears and wiped them with the hairs of her head.
45 You
gave Me no kiss, but this woman, since the time I came in, has not ceased to
kiss My feet.
46 You
did not anoint My head with oil, but this woman has anointed My feet with
ointment.
47 Therefore
I say to you, Her sins, which are many, are forgiven; for she loved much: but
to whom little is forgiven, the same loves little.”
48 And He said to her, “Your sins are forgiven.”
49 And they that sat eating with Him began to say within
themselves, “Who is this that forgives sins also?”
50 Then he said to the woman, “Your faith has saved you; go in peace.”
