Hoffnung für Alle
Matthaeus 9
Hoffnung für Alle
Jesus hat die Macht, Sünden zu vergeben (Markus 2,1‒12; Lukas 5,17‒26)
9 Jesus stieg in ein Boot und fuhr über den See zurück nach Kapernaum, wo er wohnte. 2 Dort brachten sie einen Gelähmten auf einer Trage zu ihm. Als Jesus ihren festen Glauben sah, sagte er zu dem Gelähmten: »Du kannst unbesorgt sein, mein Sohn! Deine Sünden sind dir vergeben.«
3 »Das ist Gotteslästerung!«, dachten sich einige Schriftgelehrte. 4 Jesus durchschaute sie und fragte: »Warum tragt ihr so böse Gedanken in euch? 5 Ist es denn leichter zu sagen: ›Dir sind deine Sünden vergeben‹, oder diesen Gelähmten zu heilen[a]? 6 Aber ich will euch beweisen, dass der Menschensohn die Vollmacht hat, hier auf der Erde Sünden zu vergeben.« Und er forderte den Gelähmten auf: »Steh auf, nimm deine Trage und geh nach Hause!« 7 Da stand der Mann auf und ging nach Hause. 8 Als die Leute das sahen, erschraken sie. Sie lobten Gott, der den Menschen eine solche Macht gegeben hat.
Der Zolleinnehmer Matthäus (Markus 2,13‒17; Lukas 5,27‒32)
9 Als Jesus weiterging, sah er einen Mann am Zoll sitzen. Er hieß Matthäus. Jesus forderte ihn auf: »Komm, folge mir nach!« Sofort stand Matthäus auf und ging mit ihm.
10 Später war Jesus mit seinen Jüngern bei Matthäus zu Gast. Matthäus hatte auch viele Zolleinnehmer und andere Leute mit schlechtem Ruf zum Essen eingeladen. 11 Als die Pharisäer das sahen, fragten sie seine Jünger: »Weshalb gibt sich euer Lehrer mit solchen Sündern und Betrügern ab?« 12 Jesus hörte das und antwortete: »Die Gesunden brauchen keinen Arzt, sondern die Kranken! 13 Begreift doch endlich, was Gott meint, wenn er sagt: ›Wenn jemand barmherzig ist, so ist mir das lieber als irgendwelche Opfer und Gaben.‹[b] Ich bin gekommen, um Sünder in die Gemeinschaft mit Gott zu rufen, und nicht solche, die sich sowieso für gut genug halten.[c]«
Neue Formen für das neue Leben (Markus 2,18‒22; Lukas 5,33‒39)
14 An einem anderen Tag kamen die Jünger des Johannes zu Jesus und erkundigten sich: »Wir und auch die Pharisäer fasten regelmäßig. Warum tun deine Jünger das eigentlich nicht?« 15 Jesus fragte: »Sollen die Hochzeitsgäste denn traurig sein und fasten, solange der Bräutigam noch bei ihnen ist? Die Zeit kommt früh genug, dass der Bräutigam ihnen genommen wird. Dann werden sie fasten.
16 Niemand flickt ein altes Kleid mit einem neuen Stück Stoff. Der alte Stoff würde an der Flickstelle doch wieder reißen, und das Loch würde nur noch größer. 17 Ebenso füllt niemand jungen, gärenden Wein in alte, brüchige Schläuche. Sonst platzen sie. Dann läuft der Wein aus, und die Schläuche sind unbrauchbar. Nein, jungen Wein füllt man in neue Schläuche! Nur so bleibt beides erhalten.«
Macht über Krankheit und Tod (Markus 5,21‒43; Lukas 8,40‒56)
18 Als Jesus noch mit ihnen redete, kam ein Vorsteher der jüdischen Gemeinde zu ihm, warf sich vor ihm nieder und sagte: »Meine Tochter ist gerade gestorben. Aber komm doch und leg deine Hände auf sie! Dann wird sie wieder lebendig.«
19 Jesus stand auf und folgte dem Mann zu seinem Haus. Die Jünger gingen ebenfalls mit.
20 Unterwegs berührte eine Frau, die seit zwölf Jahren an starken Blutungen litt, von hinten heimlich ein Stück[d] seines Gewandes. 21 Denn sie dachte: »Wenn ich wenigstens seine Kleider berühren kann, werde ich bestimmt gesund.« 22 Jesus drehte sich um, sah sie an und sagte: »Du kannst unbesorgt sein, meine Tochter! Dein Glaube hat dich geheilt.« Im selben Augenblick war die Frau gesund.
23 Schließlich kam Jesus zum Haus des Vorstehers. Als er die Trauermusik hörte und die vielen aufgeregten Leute sah, 24 sagte er: »Geht alle hinaus! Das Mädchen ist nicht gestorben, es schläft nur.« Da lachten sie ihn aus. 25 Als die Leute endlich hinausgetrieben waren, trat Jesus in das Zimmer des Mädchens und nahm die Hand des Kindes. Da stand das Mädchen auf und war gesund. 26 Die Nachricht davon verbreitete sich wie ein Lauffeuer in der ganzen Gegend.
Blinde sehen
27 Als Jesus weiterging, liefen ihm zwei Blinde nach und schrien: »Du Sohn Davids, hab Erbarmen mit uns!« 28 Sie folgten ihm bis in das Haus, in dem er wohnte. Jesus fragte sie: »Glaubt ihr denn, dass ich euch helfen kann?« »Ja, Herr!«, antworteten sie. 29 Da berührte er ihre Augen und sagte: »Was ihr mir zutraut, das soll geschehen!« 30 Sofort konnten sie sehen. Jesus aber befahl ihnen nachdrücklich: »Niemand darf von eurer Heilung erfahren!« 31 Trotzdem gingen sie los und erzählten in der ganzen Gegend von Jesus.
Jesus heilt: Der Widerstand wächst
32 Als die beiden gegangen waren, brachte man einen Stummen zu ihm, der von einem bösen Geist beherrscht wurde. 33 Jesus trieb diesen Dämon aus, und sofort konnte der Mann reden. Darüber wunderten sich die Leute sehr und riefen: »So etwas haben wir in Israel noch nie erlebt!«
34 Aber die Pharisäer redeten auf sie ein: »Er hat seine Macht vom Obersten aller Dämonen bekommen, nur darum kann er die Menschen von Dämonen befreien.«
Jesus hat Mitleid mit den Menschen (Markus 6,34; Lukas 10,2)
35 Danach zog Jesus durch alle Städte und Dörfer in dieser Gegend. Er lehrte in den Synagogen und verkündete überall im Land die rettende Botschaft von Gottes Reich. Wohin er auch kam, heilte er die Kranken und Leidenden. 36 Als er die vielen Menschen sah, hatte er Mitleid mit ihnen, denn sie waren erschöpft und hilflos wie Schafe, die keinen Hirten haben.
37 »Die Ernte ist groß, aber es gibt nur wenige Arbeiter«, sagte Jesus zu seinen Jüngern. 38 »Darum bittet den Herrn, dass er noch mehr Arbeiter aussendet, die seine Ernte einbringen.«

Matthew 9
New King James Version
Jesus Forgives and Heals a Paralytic(A)
9 So He got into a boat, crossed over, (B)and came to His own city. 2 (C)Then behold, they brought to Him a paralytic lying on a bed. (D)When Jesus saw their faith, He said to the paralytic, “Son, be of good cheer; your sins are forgiven you.”
3 And at once some of the scribes said within themselves, “This Man blasphemes!”
4 But Jesus, (E)knowing their thoughts, said, “Why do you think evil in your hearts? 5 For which is easier, to say, ‘Your sins are forgiven you,’ or to say, ‘Arise and walk’? 6 But that you may know that the Son of Man has power on earth to forgive sins”—then He said to the paralytic, “Arise, take up your bed, and go to your house.” 7 And he arose and departed to his house.
8 Now when the multitudes saw it, they (F)marveled[a] and glorified God, who had given such power to men.
Matthew the Tax Collector(G)
9 (H)As Jesus passed on from there, He saw a man named Matthew sitting at the tax office. And He said to him, “Follow Me.” So he arose and followed Him.
10 (I)Now it happened, as Jesus sat at the table in the house, that behold, many tax collectors and sinners came and sat down with Him and His disciples. 11 And when the Pharisees saw it, they said to His disciples, “Why does your Teacher eat with (J)tax collectors and (K)sinners?”
12 When Jesus heard that, He said to them, “Those who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick. 13 But go and learn what this means: (L)‘I desire mercy and not sacrifice.’ For I did not come to call the righteous, (M)but sinners, [b]to repentance.”
Jesus Is Questioned About Fasting(N)
14 Then the disciples of John came to Him, saying, (O)“Why do we and the Pharisees fast [c]often, but Your disciples do not fast?”
15 And Jesus said to them, “Can (P)the [d]friends of the bridegroom mourn as long as the bridegroom is with them? But the days will come when the bridegroom will be taken away from them, and (Q)then they will fast. 16 No one puts a piece of unshrunk cloth on an old garment; for [e]the patch pulls away from the garment, and the tear is made worse. 17 Nor do they put new wine into old wineskins, or else the wineskins [f]break, the wine is spilled, and the wineskins are ruined. But they put new wine into new wineskins, and both are preserved.”
A Girl Restored to Life and a Woman Healed(R)
18 (S)While He spoke these things to them, behold, a ruler came and worshiped Him, saying, “My daughter has just died, but come and lay Your hand on her and she will live.” 19 So Jesus arose and followed him, and so did His (T)disciples.
20 (U)And suddenly, a woman who had a flow of blood for twelve years came from behind and (V)touched the hem of His garment. 21 For she said to herself, “If only I may touch His garment, I shall be made well.” 22 But Jesus turned around, and when He saw her He said, “Be of good cheer, daughter; (W)your faith has made you well.” And the woman was made well from that hour.
23 (X)When Jesus came into the ruler’s house, and saw (Y)the flute players and the noisy crowd wailing, 24 He said to them, (Z)“Make room, for the girl is not dead, but sleeping.” And they ridiculed Him. 25 But when the crowd was put outside, He went in and (AA)took her by the hand, and the girl arose. 26 And the (AB)report of this went out into all that land.
Two Blind Men Healed
27 When Jesus departed from there, (AC)two blind men followed Him, crying out and saying, (AD)“Son of David, have mercy on us!”
28 And when He had come into the house, the blind men came to Him. And Jesus said to them, “Do you believe that I am able to do this?”
They said to Him, “Yes, Lord.”
29 Then He touched their eyes, saying, “According to your faith let it be to you.” 30 And their eyes were opened. And Jesus sternly warned them, saying, (AE)“See that no one knows it.” 31 (AF)But when they had departed, they [g]spread the news about Him in all that [h]country.
A Mute Man Speaks
32 (AG)As they went out, behold, they brought to Him a man, mute and demon-possessed. 33 And when the demon was cast out, the mute spoke. And the multitudes marveled, saying, “It was never seen like this in Israel!”
34 But the Pharisees said, (AH)“He casts out demons by the ruler of the demons.”
The Compassion of Jesus(AI)
35 Then Jesus went about all the cities and villages, (AJ)teaching in their synagogues, preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing every sickness and every disease [i]among the people. 36 (AK)But when He saw the multitudes, He was moved with compassion for them, because they were [j]weary and scattered, (AL)like sheep having no shepherd. 37 Then He said to His disciples, (AM)“The harvest truly is plentiful, but the laborers are few. 38 (AN)Therefore pray the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into His harvest.”

治好瘫子(A)
9 耶稣上了船，过到自己的城来。 2 有人把一个躺在床上的瘫子带到他那里。耶稣看见他们的信心，就对瘫子说：“孩子，放心！你的罪赦了。” 3 有几位经学家彼此说：“这个人在说僭妄的话。” 4 耶稣看出他们所想的，就说：“你们心里为甚么存着恶念呢？ 5 说‘你的罪赦了’，或说‘起来行走’，哪一样容易呢？ 6 然而为了要使你们知道人子在地上有赦罪的权柄，（他就对瘫子说：）起来，拿起你的床，回家去吧。” 7 他就起来回家去了。 8 群众看见，就起了敬畏的心，颂赞那把这样的权柄赐给人的 神。
呼召马太(B)
9 耶稣从那里往前走，看见一个人，名叫马太，坐在税关那里，就对他说：“来跟从我！”他就起来跟从了耶稣。 10 耶稣在屋里吃饭的时候，有很多税吏和罪人来与他和门徒一起吃饭。 11 法利赛人看见了，就对他的门徒说：“你们的老师为甚么跟税吏和罪人一起吃饭呢？” 12 耶稣听见了，就说：“健康的人不需要医生，有病的人才需要， 13 ‘我喜爱怜悯，不喜爱祭祀’，你们去想一想这话的意思吧。我来不是要召义人，而是要召罪人。”
新旧的比喻(C)
14 那时，约翰的门徒前来问耶稣：“为甚么我们和法利赛人常常禁食，你的门徒却不禁食呢？” 15 耶稣回答：“新郎跟宾客在一起的时候，宾客怎能哀痛呢？但到了时候，新郎就要从他们中间被取去，那时他们就要禁食了。 16 没有人会拿一块新布补在旧衣服上，因为补上的会把衣服扯破，裂的地方就更大了。 17 也没有人会把新酒装在旧皮袋里，如果这样，皮袋就会胀破，酒就漏出来，皮袋也损坏了。人总是把新酒装在新皮袋里，这样，两样都可以保全。”
治好血漏病的女人(D)
18 耶稣对他们说话的时候，有一位会堂的主管走来跪在他面前，说：“我的女儿刚死了，但请你来按手在她身上，她必活过来。” 19 于是耶稣和门徒起来跟着他去了。 20 有一个女人，患了十二年的血漏病，她走到耶稣背后，摸他衣服的繸子， 21 因为她心里说：“只要摸到他的衣服，我就必痊愈。” 22 耶稣转过来看见她，就说：“女儿，放心！你的信心使你痊愈了。”从那时起，那女人就好了。
使女孩复活(E)
23 耶稣进了那主管的家，看见有吹笛的人和喧哗的群众， 24 就说：“出去！这女孩不是死了，只是睡了。”他们就嘲笑他。 25 耶稣赶走众人之后，进去拉着女孩的手，女孩就起来了。 26 这消息传遍了那一带。
治好瞎子
27 耶稣离开那里的时候，有两个瞎子跟着他，喊着说：“大卫的子孙，可怜我们吧！” 28 耶稣进了房子，他们来到他那里。耶稣问他们：“你们信我能作这些事吗？”他们回答：“主啊，我们信。” 29 于是耶稣摸他们的眼睛，说：“照你们的信心给你们成就吧。” 30 他们的眼睛就看见了。耶稣严严地嘱咐他们：“千万不可让人知道。” 31 他们却出去，把他所作的事传遍了那一带。
治好哑巴
32 他们出去的时候，有人带着一个被鬼附着的哑巴来见耶稣。 33 耶稣把鬼赶走之后，哑巴就说话了。众人都很惊奇，说：“这样的事，在以色列从来没有见过。” 34 但法利赛人说：“他不过是靠鬼王赶鬼罢了。”
庄稼多，工人少
35 耶稣走遍各城各乡，在各会堂里教导人，宣扬天国的福音，医治各种疾病、各种病症。 36 他看见群众，就怜悯他们，因为他们困苦无依，像没有牧人的羊一样。 37 他就对门徒说：“庄稼多，工人少； 38 所以你们应当求庄稼的主派工人去收割他的庄稼。”

Mateo 9
Ang Bagong Tipan: Filipino Standard Version
Pinagaling ni Jesus ang Isang Paralitiko(A)
9 Sumakay si Jesus sa isang bangka, tumawid sa kabilang pampang at dumating sa kanyang sariling bayan. 2 Dinala sa kanya ng mga tao ang isang paralitikong nakaratay sa isang banig. Nang makita ni Jesus ang kanilang pananampalataya, sinabi niya sa paralitiko, “Patatagin mo ang iyong loob, anak. Pinatawad na ang iyong mga kasalanan.” 3 May mga tagapagturo ng Kautusan na naroon ang nagsabi sa kani-kanilang sarili, “Lumalapastangan ang taong ito.” 4 Subalit dahil nalalaman ni Jesus ang kanilang mga iniisip, sinabi niya, “Bakit nag-iisip kayo ng masama sa inyong mga puso? 5 Alin ba ang mas madali, ang sabihing, ‘Pinatawad na ang iyong mga kasalanan’? o ang sabihing, ‘Bumangon ka at lumakad’? 6 Subalit upang malaman ninyong dito sa lupa, ang Anak ng Tao ay may kapangyarihang magpatawad ng mga kasalanan,” sinabi niya sa paralitiko, “Bumangon ka, damputin mo ang iyong higaan at umuwi ka na.” 7 Bumangon nga ang paralitiko at umuwi. 8 Nang makita ito ng napakaraming tao, natakot sila at nagbigay-luwalhati sa Diyos na nagkaloob ng gayong kapangyarihan sa mga tao.
Ang Pagtawag kay Mateo(B)
9 Sa paglalakad ni Jesus mula roon ay nakita niya ang isang taong tinatawag na Mateo, na nakaupo sa tanggapan ng buwis. Sinabi niya rito, “Sumunod ka sa akin.” Tumayo nga siya at sumunod sa kanya. 10 Habang nakaupo si Jesus sa may hapag-kainan sa bahay, maraming mga maniningil ng buwis at mga makasalanan ang dumating at naupong kasalo niya at ng kanyang mga alagad. 11 Nang ito'y makita ng mga Fariseo, sinabi nila sa kanyang mga alagad, “Bakit ang inyong guro ay nakikisalo sa mga maniningil ng buwis at sa mga makasalanan?” 12 Nang ito'y marinig ni Jesus, sinabi niya, “Hindi nangangailangan ng manggagamot ang malulusog, kundi ang mga may sakit. 13 Humayo kayo at pag-aralan ninyo ang ibig sabihin nito: ‘Ang nais ko'y habag, at hindi handog.’ Sapagkat dumating ako hindi upang tawagin ang matutuwid, kundi ang mga makasalanan.”
Ang Katanungan tungkol sa Pag-aayuno(C)
14 Dumating naman sa kanya ang mga alagad ni Juan, at nagsabi, “Bakit kami pati ang mga Fariseo ay nag-aayuno, samantalang ang iyong mga alagad ay hindi nag-aayuno?” 15 Sinabi ni Jesus sa kanila, “Maaari bang magpakalungkot ang mga inanyayahan sa kasalan habang kasama nila ang lalaking ikakasal? Darating ang panahon na kukunin sa kanila ang lalaking ikakasal at doon pa lamang sila mag-aayuno. 16 Walang taong gumagamit ng hindi pa pinaurong na tela upang itagpi sa lumang damit, sapagkat babatakin ng itinagping tela ang damit, at lalong magiging malaki ang sira. 17 Hindi rin inilalagay ang bagong alak sa mga lumang lalagyang balat. Kapag ganoon ang ginawa, puputok ang mga balat, matatapon ang alak, at magpupunit-punit ang mga balat. Sa halip, ang bagong alak ay inilalagay sa mga bagong lalagyang balat, at pareho silang magtatagal.”
Muling Binuhay ang Anak ng Pinuno at Pinagaling ang Isang Babae(D)
18 Habang sinasabi ni Jesus ang mga ito sa kanila, dumating ang isang pinuno at nanikluhod sa kanya. “Kamamatay po lamang ng aking anak na babae, ngunit puntahan ninyo at ipatong ang inyong kamay sa kanya, at siya'y mabubuhay.” 19 Tumayo si Jesus at sumama sa kanya, pati ang kanyang mga alagad. 20 Samantala, may isang babaing labindalawang taon nang pinahihirapan ng pagdurugo, lumapit siya sa likuran ni Jesus at hinipo ang laylayan ng damit nito. 21 Sinabi ng babae sa kanyang sarili, “Mahawakan ko lamang ang kanyang damit ay gagaling na ako.” 22 Lumingon si Jesus, at pagkakita sa babae ay sinabi niya, “Patatagin mo ang iyong loob, anak. Pinagaling ka ng iyong pagsampalataya.” Nang oras ding iyon ay gumaling ang babae. 23 Pagdating ni Jesus sa bahay ng pinuno at makita ang mga manunugtog ng plauta at ang maraming taong nagkakagulo, 24 sinabi niya, “Umalis na kayo. Hindi naman patay ang bata kundi natutulog lamang.” Pinagtawanan nila si Jesus. 25 Nang mapalabas na ang maraming tao, pumasok siya, hinawakan sa kamay ang batang babae at ito'y bumangon. 26 Kumalat ang balita tungkol dito sa buong lupaing iyon.
Pinagaling ang Dalawang Bulag
27 Habang nililisan ni Jesus ang dakong iyon, may dalawang lalaking bulag na sumunod sa kanya at sumisigaw nang malakas, “Maawa ka sa amin, Anak ni David.” 28 Pagpasok niya sa bahay, lumapit sa kanya ang mga bulag, at sinabi ni Jesus sa kanila, “Naniniwala ba kayong kaya kong gawin ito?” Sinabi nila sa kanya, “Opo, Panginoon.” 29 Hinawakan niya ang kanilang mga mata at sinabi, “Mangyari sa inyo ang inyong pinaniniwalaan.” 30 At sila'y nakakita. Mahigpit na nagbilin sa kanila si Jesus, “Tiyakin ninyong walang ibang makaaalam nito.” 31 Subalit pag-alis nila ay ipinamalita nila ang tungkol sa kanya sa buong lupaing iyon.
Pinagaling ang Lalaking Pipi
32 Nang paalis na sina Jesus, dinala sa kanya ang isang taong pipi dahil ito'y sinasaniban ng demonyo. 33 Pinalayas ni Jesus ang demonyo, at ang pipi ay nakapagsalita. Namangha ang napakaraming tao at nagsabi, “Wala pang nakitang tulad nito sa Israel.” 34 Subalit sinabi ng mga Fariseo, “Sa pamamagitan ng kapangyarihan ng pinuno ng mga demonyo ay nagpapalayas siya ng mga demonyo.”
Nahabag si Jesus sa mga Tao
35 Nilibot ni Jesus ang lahat ng mga lungsod at mga nayon, at nagtuturo sa mga sinagoga ng mga Judio at ipinapahayag ang Magandang Balita ng kaharian. Pinagagaling niya ang lahat ng uri ng sakit at karamdaman. 36 Nang kanyang makita ang napakaraming tao, nahabag siya sa kanila sapagkat sila'y nababalisa at nakakaawa, na gaya ng mga tupang walang pastol. 37 Sinabi niya sa kanyang mga alagad, “Napakarami ng aanihin, subalit kakaunti ang mga manggagawa. 38 Kaya't idalangin ninyo sa Panginoon ng ánihin na magsugo siya ng mga manggagawa sa kanyang aanihin.”

Jesus Forgives and Heals a Paralyzed Man(A)
9 Jesus stepped into a boat, crossed over and came to his own town.(B) 2 Some men brought to him a paralyzed man,(C) lying on a mat. When Jesus saw their faith,(D) he said to the man, “Take heart,(E) son; your sins are forgiven.”(F)
3 At this, some of the teachers of the law said to themselves, “This fellow is blaspheming!”(G)
4 Knowing their thoughts,(H) Jesus said, “Why do you entertain evil thoughts in your hearts? 5 Which is easier: to say, ‘Your sins are forgiven,’ or to say, ‘Get up and walk’? 6 But I want you to know that the Son of Man(I) has authority on earth to forgive sins.” So he said to the paralyzed man, “Get up, take your mat and go home.” 7 Then the man got up and went home. 8 When the crowd saw this, they were filled with awe; and they praised God,(J) who had given such authority to man.
The Calling of Matthew(K)
9 As Jesus went on from there, he saw a man named Matthew sitting at the tax collector’s booth. “Follow me,”(L) he told him, and Matthew got up and followed him.
10 While Jesus was having dinner at Matthew’s house, many tax collectors and sinners came and ate with him and his disciples. 11 When the Pharisees saw this, they asked his disciples, “Why does your teacher eat with tax collectors and sinners?”(M)
12 On hearing this, Jesus said, “It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick. 13 But go and learn what this means: ‘I desire mercy, not sacrifice.’[a](N) For I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners.”(O)
Jesus Questioned About Fasting(P)
14 Then John’s(Q) disciples came and asked him, “How is it that we and the Pharisees fast often,(R) but your disciples do not fast?”
15 Jesus answered, “How can the guests of the bridegroom mourn while he is with them?(S) The time will come when the bridegroom will be taken from them; then they will fast.(T)
16 “No one sews a patch of unshrunk cloth on an old garment, for the patch will pull away from the garment, making the tear worse. 17 Neither do people pour new wine into old wineskins. If they do, the skins will burst; the wine will run out and the wineskins will be ruined. No, they pour new wine into new wineskins, and both are preserved.”
Jesus Raises a Dead Girl and Heals a Sick Woman(U)
18 While he was saying this, a synagogue leader came and knelt before him(V) and said, “My daughter has just died. But come and put your hand on her,(W) and she will live.” 19 Jesus got up and went with him, and so did his disciples.
20 Just then a woman who had been subject to bleeding for twelve years came up behind him and touched the edge of his cloak.(X) 21 She said to herself, “If I only touch his cloak, I will be healed.”
22 Jesus turned and saw her. “Take heart,(Y) daughter,” he said, “your faith has healed you.”(Z) And the woman was healed at that moment.(AA)
23 When Jesus entered the synagogue leader’s house and saw the noisy crowd and people playing pipes,(AB) 24 he said, “Go away. The girl is not dead(AC) but asleep.”(AD) But they laughed at him. 25 After the crowd had been put outside, he went in and took the girl by the hand, and she got up.(AE) 26 News of this spread through all that region.(AF)
Jesus Heals the Blind and the Mute
27 As Jesus went on from there, two blind men followed him, calling out, “Have mercy on us, Son of David!”(AG)
28 When he had gone indoors, the blind men came to him, and he asked them, “Do you believe that I am able to do this?”
“Yes, Lord,” they replied.(AH)
29 Then he touched their eyes and said, “According to your faith let it be done to you”;(AI) 30 and their sight was restored. Jesus warned them sternly, “See that no one knows about this.”(AJ) 31 But they went out and spread the news about him all over that region.(AK)
32 While they were going out, a man who was demon-possessed(AL) and could not talk(AM) was brought to Jesus. 33 And when the demon was driven out, the man who had been mute spoke. The crowd was amazed and said, “Nothing like this has ever been seen in Israel.”(AN)
34 But the Pharisees said, “It is by the prince of demons that he drives out demons.”(AO)
The Workers Are Few
35 Jesus went through all the towns and villages, teaching in their synagogues, proclaiming the good news of the kingdom and healing every disease and sickness.(AP) 36 When he saw the crowds, he had compassion on them,(AQ) because they were harassed and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd.(AR) 37 Then he said to his disciples, “The harvest(AS) is plentiful but the workers are few.(AT) 38 Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into his harvest field.”
