治百夫長的僕人

耶穌對百姓講完了這一切的話,就進了迦百農

有一個百夫長所寶貴的僕人害病快要死了。 百夫長風聞耶穌的事,就託猶太人的幾個長老去求耶穌來救他的僕人。 他們到了耶穌那裡,就切切地求他,說:「你給他行這事是他所配得的, 因為他愛我們的百姓,給我們建造會堂。」 耶穌就和他們同去。離那家不遠,百夫長託幾個朋友去見耶穌,對他說:「主啊,不要勞動,因你到我舍下,我不敢當, 我也自以為不配去見你。只要你說一句話,我的僕人就必好了。 因為我在人的權下,也有兵在我以下,對這個說『去!』他就去,對那個說『來!』他就來,對我的僕人說『你做這事!』他就去做。」 耶穌聽見這話,就稀奇他,轉身對跟隨的眾人說:「我告訴你們:這麼大的信心,就是在以色列中我也沒有遇見過!」 10 那託來的人回到百夫長家裡,看見僕人已經好了。

叫拿因城寡婦之子復活

11 過了不多時[a],耶穌往一座城去,這城名叫拿因,他的門徒和極多的人與他同行。 12 將近城門,有一個死人被抬出來。這人是他母親獨生的兒子,他母親又是寡婦。有城裡的許多人同著寡婦送殯。 13 主看見那寡婦,就憐憫她,對她說:「不要哭!」 14 於是進前按著槓,抬的人就站住了。耶穌說:「少年人,我吩咐你,起來!」 15 那死人就坐起,並且說話。耶穌便把他交給他母親。 16 眾人都驚奇,歸榮耀於神,說:「有大先知在我們中間興起來了!」又說:「神眷顧了他的百姓!」 17 他這事的風聲就傳遍了猶太和周圍地方。

施洗約翰差人問主

18 約翰的門徒把這些事都告訴約翰 19 他便叫了兩個門徒來,打發他們到主那裡去說:「那將要來的是你嗎?還是我們等候別人呢?」 20 那兩個人來到耶穌那裡,說:「施洗的約翰打發我們來問你:那將要來的是你嗎?還是我們等候別人呢?」 21 正當那時候,耶穌治好了許多有疾病的、受災患的、被惡鬼附著的,又開恩叫好些瞎子能看見。 22 耶穌回答說:「你們去,把所看見、所聽見的事告訴約翰,就是:瞎子看見,瘸子行走,長大痲瘋的潔淨,聾子聽見,死人復活,窮人有福音傳給他們。 23 凡不因我跌倒的,就有福了!」

稱讚施洗約翰

24 約翰所差來的人既走了,耶穌就對眾人講論約翰說:「你們從前出去到曠野是要看什麼呢?要看風吹動的蘆葦嗎? 25 你們出去到底是要看什麼?要看穿細軟衣服的人嗎?那穿華麗衣服、宴樂度日的人是在王宮裡。 26 你們出去究竟是要看什麼?要看先知嗎?我告訴你們,是的,他比先知大多了。 27 經上記著說:『我要差遣我的使者在你前面預備道路』,所說的就是這個人。 28 我告訴你們:凡婦人所生的,沒有一個大過約翰的;然而神國裡最小的比他還大。」 29 眾百姓和稅吏既受過約翰的洗,聽見這話,就以神為義。 30 但法利賽人和律法師沒有受過約翰的洗,竟為自己廢棄了神的旨意。[b] 31 主又說:「這樣,我可用什麼比這世代的人呢?他們好像什麼呢? 32 好像孩童坐在街市上,彼此呼叫說:『我們向你們吹笛,你們不跳舞!我們向你們舉哀,你們不啼哭!』 33 施洗的約翰來,不吃餅不喝酒,你們說他是被鬼附著的。 34 人子來,也吃也喝,你們說他是貪食好酒的人,是稅吏和罪人的朋友。 35 但智慧之子都以智慧為是。」

有罪的女人用香膏抹主

36 有一個法利賽人請耶穌和他吃飯,耶穌就到法利賽人家裡去坐席。 37 那城裡有一個女人,是個罪人,知道耶穌在法利賽人家裡坐席,就拿著盛香膏的玉瓶, 38 站在耶穌背後,挨著他的腳哭,眼淚濕了耶穌的腳,就用自己的頭髮擦乾,又用嘴連連親他的腳,把香膏抹上。 39 請耶穌的法利賽人看見這事,心裡說:「這人若是先知,必知道摸他的是誰,是個怎樣的女人,乃是個罪人!」 40 耶穌對他說:西門,我有句話要對你說。」西門說:「夫子,請說。」 41 耶穌說:「一個債主有兩個人欠他的債,一個欠五十兩銀子,一個欠五兩銀子。 42 因為他們無力償還,債主就開恩免了他們兩個人的債。這兩個人哪一個更愛他呢?」 43 西門回答說:「我想是那多得恩免的人。」耶穌說:「你斷的不錯。」

愛大赦免也大

44 於是轉過來向著那女人,便對西門說:「你看見這女人嗎?我進了你的家,你沒有給我水洗腳,但這女人用眼淚濕了我的腳,用頭髮擦乾; 45 你沒有與我親嘴,但這女人從我進來的時候就不住地用嘴親我的腳; 46 你沒有用油抹我的頭,但這女人用香膏抹我的腳。 47 所以我告訴你:她許多的罪都赦免了,因為她的愛多;但那赦免少的,他的愛就少。」 48 於是對那女人說:「你的罪赦免了!」 49 同席的人心裡說:「這是什麼人,竟赦免人的罪呢?」 50 耶穌對那女人說:「你的信救了你,平平安安地回去吧!」

百夫长的信心

耶稣向众人讲完道后,进了迦百农。 当时,有一个百夫长很赏识的奴仆病了,生命垂危。 百夫长听说耶稣的事,就托几位犹太人的长老去请耶稣来医治他的奴仆。 他们便来恳求耶稣,说:“这位百夫长值得你帮助, 因为他爱我们的同胞,为我们建造会堂。” 耶稣就跟他们去了。

快抵达时,那百夫长又请几位朋友去见耶稣,对祂说:“主啊,不用劳驾,我不配让你亲自来我家。 我自认不配见你的面,只要你一句话,我的奴仆必定康复。 因为我有上司,也有部下。我命令我的部下去,他就去;要他来,他就来。我吩咐奴仆做什么事,他一定照办。”

耶稣听了这番话,感到惊奇,转身对跟从祂的百姓说:“我告诉你们,就是在以色列,我也从未见过有这么大信心的人。”

10 派去的几位朋友回到百夫长家里,发现那奴仆已经痊愈了。

寡妇的独子起死回生

11 过了不久[a],耶稣去拿因城,随行的有门徒和一大群人。 12 耶稣快到城门口时,从城里走出一队送殡的人,死者是一个寡妇的独子,有许多城中的人陪着她。 13 耶稣看见那寡妇,怜悯之心油然而生,就对她说:“不要哭!” 14 随即上前按住抬尸架,抬的人停了下来。耶稣说:“年轻人,我吩咐你起来!” 15 那死者就坐了起来,并开口说话。耶稣把他交给他母亲。

16 在场的人惊惧万分,把荣耀归给上帝,说:“我们中间出了一位大先知!”又说:“上帝眷顾了祂的百姓!” 17 有关祂的这消息传遍了犹太和附近地区。

施洗者约翰的疑问

18 约翰从自己的门徒那里获悉这些事后, 19 就叫了两个门徒来,派他们去问主:“将要来的那位就是你吗?还是我们要等别人呢?”

20 他们找到耶稣,便问:“施洗者约翰派我们来请教你,‘将要来的那位就是你吗?还是我们要等别人呢?’”

21 那时,耶稣刚治好了许多患各种疾病和被鬼附身的人,又使许多瞎子得见光明。 22 耶稣便回答说:“你们回去把所见所闻告诉约翰,就是瞎子看见,瘸子走路,麻风病人得洁净,聋子听见,死人复活,穷人听到福音。 23 凡对我没有失去信心的人有福了!”

耶稣称赞施洗者约翰

24 约翰的门徒离去后,耶稣对众人谈论约翰,说:“你们从前去旷野要看什么呢?看随风摇动的芦苇吗? 25 如果不是,你们到底想看什么?是看穿绫罗绸缎的人吗?那些衣着华丽、生活奢侈的人住在王宫里。 26 你们究竟想看什么?看先知吗?是的,我告诉你们,他不只是先知。 27 圣经上说,‘看啊,我要差遣我的使者在你前面为你预备道路。’这里所指的就是约翰。 28 我告诉你们,凡妇人所生的,没有一个比约翰大,但上帝国中最微不足道的也比他大。”

29 众百姓和税吏听了这番话,都承认上帝是公义的,因为他们接受了约翰的洗礼。 30 但那些法利赛人和律法教师没有接受约翰的洗礼,拒绝了上帝为他们所定的旨意。

31 主又说:“我用什么来比拟这个世代的人呢?他们像什么呢? 32 他们就如街头上戏耍的孩童——彼此呼叫,

“‘我们吹娶亲的乐曲,
你们不跳舞;
我们唱送葬的哀歌,
你们不哭泣。’

33 施洗者约翰来了,禁食禁酒,你们就说他被鬼附身了; 34 人子来了,又吃又喝,你们就说,‘看啊,祂是个贪吃好酒之徒,与税吏和罪人为友!’ 35 然而,智慧会在追求智慧的人身上得到验证。”

罪妇的悔改

36 有一个法利赛人请耶稣到他家里吃饭,耶稣应邀赴宴。 37 那城里住着一个女人,生活败坏。她听说耶稣在那法利赛人家里吃饭,就带了一个盛满香膏的玉瓶进去。 38 她站在耶稣背后,挨着祂的脚哭,泪水滴湿了祂的脚,就用自己的头发擦干,又连连亲祂的脚,并抹上香膏。

39 请耶稣的法利赛人看在眼里,心想:“如果这人真的是先知,就该知道摸祂的是谁,是个什么样的女人,她是个罪人。”

40 耶稣对他说:“西门,我有话跟你说。”

西门答道:“老师,请说。”

41 耶稣说:“有一个债主借给一个人五百个银币,又借给另一个人五十个银币。 42 二人都没有能力还债,这位债主就免了他们的债务。你想,哪一位会更爱债主呢?”

43 西门答道:“我相信是那个被免去较多债的人。”

44 耶稣说:“你判断得对!”随后转向那女人,继续对西门说:“你看见这女人了吗?我到你家里来,你没有拿水给我洗脚,这女人却用她的眼泪洗我的脚,还亲自用头发擦干。 45 你没有亲吻我,但我进来以后,这女人却不停地吻我的脚。 46 你没有用油为我抹头,这女人却用香膏抹我的脚。 47 所以我告诉你,她众多的罪都被赦免了,因此她的爱深切;那些获得赦免少的,他们的爱也少。”

48 耶稣对那女人说:“你的罪都被赦免了。”

49 同席的人彼此议论说:“这人是谁?竟然能赦免人的罪!”

50 耶稣又对那女人说:“你的信心救了你,平安地走吧!”

  1. 7:11 过了不久”有古卷作“次日”。

Now when he had ended all his sayings in the audience of the people, he entered into Capernaum.

And a certain centurion's servant, who was dear unto him, was sick, and ready to die.

And when he heard of Jesus, he sent unto him the elders of the Jews, beseeching him that he would come and heal his servant.

And when they came to Jesus, they besought him instantly, saying, That he was worthy for whom he should do this:

For he loveth our nation, and he hath built us a synagogue.

Then Jesus went with them. And when he was now not far from the house, the centurion sent friends to him, saying unto him, Lord, trouble not thyself: for I am not worthy that thou shouldest enter under my roof:

Wherefore neither thought I myself worthy to come unto thee: but say in a word, and my servant shall be healed.

For I also am a man set under authority, having under me soldiers, and I say unto one, Go, and he goeth; and to another, Come, and he cometh; and to my servant, Do this, and he doeth it.

When Jesus heard these things, he marvelled at him, and turned him about, and said unto the people that followed him, I say unto 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 whole that had been sick.

11 And it came to pass the day after, that he went into a city called Nain; and many of his disciples went with him, and much people.

12 Now when he came nigh to the gate of the city, behold, there was a dead man carried out, the only son of his mother, and she was a widow: and much people of the city was with her.

13 And when the Lord saw her, he had compassion on her, and said unto her, Weep not.

14 And he came and touched the bier: and they that bare him stood still. And he said, Young man, I say unto thee, Arise.

15 And he that was dead sat up, and began to speak. And he delivered him to his mother.

16 And there came a fear on all: and they glorified God, saying, That a great prophet is risen up among us; and, That God hath visited his people.

17 And this rumour of him went forth throughout all Judaea, and throughout all the region round about.

18 And the disciples of John shewed him of all these things.

19 And John calling unto him two of his disciples sent them to Jesus, saying, Art thou he that should come? or look we for another?

20 When the men were come unto him, they said, John Baptist hath sent us unto thee, saying, Art thou he that should come? or look we for another?

21 And in that same hour he cured many of their infirmities and plagues, and of evil spirits; and unto many that were blind he gave sight.

22 Then Jesus answering said unto them, Go your way, and tell John what things ye have seen and heard; how that 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, whosoever shall not be offended in me.

24 And when the messengers of John were departed, he began to speak unto the people concerning John, What went ye out into the wilderness for to see? A reed shaken with the wind?

25 But what went ye out for to see? A man clothed in soft raiment? Behold, they which are gorgeously apparelled, and live delicately, are in kings' courts.

26 But what went ye out for to see? A prophet? Yea, I say unto you, and much more than a prophet.

27 This is he, of whom it is written, Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, which shall prepare thy way before thee.

28 For I say unto you, Among those that are born of women there is not a greater prophet than John the Baptist: but he that is least in the kingdom of God is greater than he.

29 And all the people that heard him, and the publicans, justified God, being baptized with the baptism of John.

30 But the Pharisees and lawyers rejected the counsel of God against themselves, being not baptized of him.

31 And the Lord said, Whereunto then shall I liken the men of this generation? and to what are they like?

32 They are like unto children sitting in the marketplace, and calling one to another, and saying, We have piped unto you, and ye have not danced; we have mourned to you, and ye have not wept.

33 For John the Baptist came neither eating bread nor drinking wine; and ye say, He hath a devil.

34 The Son of man is come eating and drinking; and ye say, Behold a gluttonous man, and a winebibber, a friend of publicans and sinners!

35 But wisdom is justified of all her children.

36 And one of the Pharisees desired him that he would eat with him. And he went into the Pharisee's house, and sat down to meat.

37 And, behold, a woman in the city, which was a sinner, when she knew that Jesus sat at meat 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 did wipe them with the hairs of her head, and kissed his feet, and anointed them with the ointment.

39 Now when the Pharisee which had bidden him saw it, he spake within himself, saying, This man, if he were a prophet, would have known who and what manner of woman this is that toucheth him: for she is a sinner.

40 And Jesus answering said unto him, Simon, I have somewhat to say unto thee. And he saith, Master, say on.

41 There was a certain creditor which 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 Simon answered and said, I suppose that he, to whom he forgave most. And he said unto him, Thou hast rightly judged.

44 And he turned to the woman, and said unto Simon, Seest thou this woman? I entered into thine house, thou gavest me no water for my feet: but she hath washed my feet with tears, and wiped them with the hairs of her head.

45 Thou gavest me no kiss: but this woman since the time I came in hath not ceased to kiss my feet.

46 My head with oil thou didst not anoint: but this woman hath anointed my feet with ointment.

47 Wherefore I say unto thee, Her sins, which are many, are forgiven; for she loved much: but to whom little is forgiven, the same loveth little.

48 And he said unto her, Thy sins are forgiven.

49 And they that sat at meat with him began to say within themselves, Who is this that forgiveth sins also?

50 And he said to the woman, Thy faith hath saved thee; go in peace.

Jesus Heals a Centurion’s Servant(A)

Now when He concluded all His sayings in the hearing of the people, He (B)entered Capernaum. And a certain centurion’s servant, who was dear to him, was sick and ready to die. So when he heard about Jesus, he sent elders of the Jews to Him, pleading with Him to come and heal his servant. And when they came to Jesus, they begged Him earnestly, saying that the one for whom He should do this was deserving, “for he loves our nation, and has built us a synagogue.”

Then Jesus went with them. And when He was already 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. Therefore I did not even think myself worthy to come to You. But (C)say the word, and my servant will be healed. For I also am a man placed under (D)authority, having soldiers under me. 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.

When Jesus heard these things, He marveled at him, and turned around and said to the crowd that followed Him, “I say to you, I have not found such great faith, not even in Israel!” 10 And those who were sent, returning to the house, found the servant well [a]who had been sick.

Jesus Raises the Son of the Widow of Nain

11 Now it happened, the day after, that He went into a city called Nain; and many of His disciples went with Him, and a large crowd. 12 And 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 a large crowd from the city was with her. 13 When the Lord saw her, He had (E)compassion on her and said to her, (F)“Do not weep.” 14 Then He came and touched the open coffin, and those who carried him stood still. And He said, “Young man, I say to you, (G)arise.” 15 So he who was dead (H)sat up and began to speak. And He (I)presented him to his mother.

16 (J)Then fear [b]came upon all, and they (K)glorified God, saying, (L)“A great prophet has risen up among us”; and, (M)“God has visited His people.” 17 And this report about Him went throughout all Judea and all the surrounding region.

John the Baptist Sends Messengers to Jesus(N)

18 (O)Then the disciples of John reported to him concerning all these things. 19 And John, calling two of his disciples to him, sent them to [c]Jesus, saying, “Are You (P)the Coming One, or [d]do we look for another?”

20 When the men had come to Him, they said, “John the Baptist has sent us to You, saying, ‘Are You the Coming One, or do we look for another?’ ” 21 And that very hour He cured many of [e]infirmities, afflictions, and evil spirits; and to many blind He gave sight.

22 (Q)Jesus answered and said to them, “Go and tell John the things you have seen and heard: (R)that the blind (S)see, the lame (T)walk, the lepers are (U)cleansed, the deaf (V)hear, the dead are raised, (W)the poor have the gospel preached to them. 23 And blessed is he who is not [f]offended because of Me.”

24 (X)When the messengers of John had departed, He began to speak to the multitudes concerning John: “What did you go out into the wilderness to see? A reed shaken by the wind? 25 But what did you go out to see? A man clothed in soft garments? Indeed those who are gorgeously appareled and live in luxury are in kings’ courts. 26 But what did you go out to see? A prophet? Yes, I say to you, and more than a prophet. 27 This is he of whom it is written:

(Y)‘Behold, I send My messenger before Your face,
Who will prepare Your way before You.’

28 For I say to you, among those born of women there is [g]not a (Z)greater prophet than John the Baptist; but he who is least in the kingdom of God is greater than he.”

29 And when all the people heard Him, even the tax collectors [h]justified God, (AA)having been baptized with the baptism of John. 30 But the Pharisees and [i]lawyers rejected (AB)the will of God for themselves, not having been baptized by him.

31 [j]And the Lord said, (AC)“To what then shall I liken the men of this generation, and what are they like? 32 They are like children sitting in the marketplace and calling to one another, saying:

‘We played the flute for you,
And you did not dance;
We mourned to you,
And you did not weep.’

33 For (AD)John the Baptist came (AE)neither eating bread nor drinking wine, and you say, ‘He has a demon.’ 34 The Son of Man has come (AF)eating and drinking, and you say, ‘Look, a glutton and a [k]winebibber, a friend of tax collectors and sinners!’ 35 (AG)But wisdom is justified by all her children.”

A Sinful Woman Forgiven

36 (AH)Then one of the Pharisees asked Him to eat with him. And He went to 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 Jesus sat at the table in the Pharisee’s house, brought an alabaster flask of fragrant oil, 38 and stood at His feet behind Him weeping; and she began to wash His feet with her tears, and wiped them with the hair of her head; and she kissed His feet and anointed them with the fragrant oil. 39 Now when the Pharisee who had invited Him saw this, he spoke to himself, saying, (AI)“This Man, if He were a prophet, would know who and what manner of woman this is who is touching Him, for she is a sinner.”

40 And Jesus answered and said to him, “Simon, I have something to say to you.”

So he said, “Teacher, say it.”

41 “There was a certain creditor who had two debtors. One owed five hundred (AJ)denarii, and the other fifty. 42 And when they had nothing with which to repay, he freely forgave them both. Tell Me, therefore, which of them will love him more?”

43 Simon answered and said, “I suppose the one whom he forgave more.”

And He said to him, “You have rightly judged.” 44 Then He turned to the woman and said to Simon, “Do you see this woman? I entered your house; you gave Me no (AK)water for My feet, but she has washed My feet with her tears and wiped them with the hair of her head. 45 You gave Me no (AL)kiss, but this woman has not ceased to kiss My feet since the time I came in. 46 (AM)You did not anoint My head with oil, but this woman has anointed My feet with fragrant oil. 47 (AN)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 Then He said to her, (AO)“Your sins are forgiven.”

49 And those who sat at the table with Him began to say to themselves, (AP)“Who is this who even forgives sins?”

50 Then He said to the woman, (AQ)“Your faith has saved you. Go in peace.”
