赦罪与治病

过了些日子,耶稣又进了迦百农。人们听说他在房子[a]里, 许多人就聚集,甚至连门前都没有空处了。于是耶稣就向他们讲道。 这时候,一些人带了一个瘫痪的人来到耶稣那里,是被四个人抬来的; 但由于人多,无法抬到耶稣面前[b],他们就把耶稣上方的屋顶拆了。拆通之后,就把躺在垫子上那瘫痪的人缒了下去。

耶稣看见他们的信心,就对瘫痪的人说:“孩子,你的罪孽被赦免了。”

可是,有一些经文士坐在那里,心里想: “这个人怎么这样说话呢?他说亵渎的话!除了神一位之外,谁能赦免罪呢?”

耶稣灵里立刻知道他们心里这样想,就对他们说:“你们心里为什么想这些事呢? 对这瘫痪的人说‘你的罪孽被赦免了’,或说‘你起来,拿起垫子走路’,哪一样更容易呢? 10 不过为要使你们知道人子在地上有赦免罪的权柄——”耶稣就对瘫痪的人说: 11 “我吩咐你:起来,拿起你的垫子,回家去吧!”

12 那个人就立刻起来,拿起垫子在大家面前出去了。结果大家都惊讶,就荣耀神,说:“我们从来没有见过这样的事。”

呼召马太

13 后来,耶稣又出去,到了加利利湖边[c]。众人都来到他那里,他就教导他们。 14 耶稣往前走,看见亚勒腓的儿子利未[d]在税关坐着。耶稣对他说:“你跟从我!”利未就站起来,跟从了耶稣。

与罪人吃饭

15 耶稣在利未家里坐席的时候,许多税吏和罪人与耶稣及他的门徒们一同坐席,因为有许多这样的人也跟随了耶稣。 16 有些法利赛派的经文士[e]见耶稣与罪人和税吏一起吃饭,就对耶稣的门徒们说:“他怎么与那些税吏和罪人一起吃饭[f]呢?”

17 耶稣听见了,就对他们说:“健康的人不需要医生,有病的人才需要。我来不是要召唤义人,而是要召唤罪人[g]。”

禁食的问题

18 约翰的门徒们和法利赛[h]正禁食的时候,有些人来问耶稣:“为什么约翰的门徒们和法利赛人的门徒们都禁食,而你的门徒们却不禁食呢?”

19 耶稣对他们说:“新郎与宾客[i]在一起的时候,难道宾客能禁食吗?只要他们与新郎在一起,他们就不能禁食。 20 可是日子将要来到:当新郎从他们中间被带走的时候,他们那时——在那一天就要禁食了。 21 没有人把没缩过水的布块补在旧衣服上。否则所补上的新布会扯坏旧衣服,造成更大的裂口。 22 同样,也没有人把新酒装在旧皮袋里,否则酒[j]会胀破皮袋,酒和皮袋都糟蹋了[k]。因此,新酒必须装[l]在新皮袋里。”

安息日的主

23 有一次在安息日,耶稣从麦田经过,他的门徒们开始边走边摘麦穗。 24 有些法利赛人对耶稣说:“你看,他们为什么做安息日不可以做的事呢?”

25 耶稣对他们说:大卫和那些与他在一起的人饥饿缺乏时所做的事,难道你们从来没有读过吗? 26 亚比亚达任大祭司的时候,他难道不是进了神的殿[m],吃了陈设饼,还分给与他在一起的人吗?这饼除了祭司,谁都不可以吃。” 27 接着,耶稣对他们说:“安息日是为人而存在的,人不是为安息日而存在的。 28 所以,人子是主,也是安息日的主。”

And again he entered into Capernaum, after eight days. And it was heard, that he was in an house,

and many came together, so that they might not be in the house, nor at the gate [so that it took them not, neither at the gate]. And he spake to them the word.

And there came to him men that brought a man sick in the palsy [And there came to him men bringing a sick man in palsy], which was borne of four.

And when they might not bring him to Jesus for the people [And when they might not offer him to him for the company of people], they uncovered the roof where he was, and [they] opened it, and they let down the bed in which the sick man in palsy lay.

And when Jesus had seen the faith of them, he said to the sick man in palsy [Soothly when Jesus saw the faith of them, he saith to the sick man in palsy], Son, thy sins be forgiven to thee.

But there were some of the scribes sitting, and thinking in their hearts,

What speaketh he thus? He blasphemeth; who may forgive sins, but God alone?

And [anon] when Jesus had known this by the Holy Ghost, that they thought so within themselves, he saith to them [Jesus said to them], What think ye these things in your hearts?

What is lighter to say to the sick man in palsy, Sins be forgiven to thee, or to say, Rise, take thy bed, and walk?

10 But that ye know that man's Son hath power in earth to forgive sins, he said to the sick man in palsy [he saith to the sick man in palsy],

11 I say to thee, rise up, [and] take thy bed, and go into thine house.

12 And at once he rose up, and when he had taken the bed [And anon, he rose up, and, the bed taken up], he went before all men, so that all men wondered, and honoured God, and said [saying], For we saw never so.

13 And he went out again to the sea, and all the people [and all the company of people] came to him; and he taught them.

14 And when he passed, he saw Levi of Alphaeus sitting at the tollbooth, and he said to him, Follow me. And he rose, and followed him.

15 And it was done, when he sat at the meat in his house, many publicans and sinful men sat together at the meat [sat together at meat] with Jesus and his disciples; for there were many that followed him.

16 And scribes and Pharisees seeing, that he ate with publicans and sinful men, said to his disciples, Why eateth and drinketh your master with publicans and sinners [Why your master eateth and drinketh with publicans and sinners]?

17 When this was heard, Jesus said to them, Whole men have no need to a physician, but they that be evil-at-ease [This thing heard, Jesus saith to them, Whole men have no need to a leech, but they that have evil]; for I came not to call just men, but sinners.

18 And the disciples of John and the Pharisees were fasting; and they came, and said to him, Why fast the disciples of John, and the Pharisees fast, but thy disciples fast not? [And the disciples of John and the Pharisees were fasting; and they came, and say to him, Why the disciples of John and of Pharisees fast, but thy disciples fast not?]

19 And Jesus said to them, Whether the sons of the spousals be able to fast [Whether the sons of the weddings may fast], as long as the spouse is with them? As long time as they have the spouse with them, they be not able to fast [they may not fast].

20 But days shall come, when the spouse shall be taken away from them, and then they shall fast in those days.

21 No man seweth a patch of new cloth to an old cloak [to an old cloth], else he taketh away [else it taketh away] the new patch from the old, and a more breaking is made.

22 And no man putteth new wine into old bottles, else the wine shall burst the bottles, and the wine shall be shed out [and the wine shall be poured out], and the bottles shall perish. But new wine shall be put into new bottles [But new wine oweth to be put into new wine vessels].

23 And it was done again, when the Lord walked in the sabbaths by the corns, and his disciples began to pass forth [and his disciples began to go forth], and [to] pluck ears of the corn.

24 And the Pharisees said to him, Lo! what thy disciples do in the sabbaths, that is not leaveful [Lo! what do thy disciples in sabbaths, the thing that is not leaveful(?)].

25 And he said to them, Read ye never what David did, when he had need, and he hungered, and they that were with him?

26 How he went into the house of God, under Abiathar, prince of priests, and ate loaves of proposition [and ate loaves of proposition, either of setting forth], which it was not leaveful to eat, but to priests alone, and he gave to them that were with him.

27 And he said to them, The sabbath is made for man, and not man for the sabbath;

28 and so man's Son is Lord also of the sabbath.

Jesus Forgives and Heals a Paralytic(A)

And again (B)He entered Capernaum after some days, and it was heard that He was in the house. [a]Immediately many gathered together, so that there was no longer room to receive them, not even near the door. And He preached the word to them. Then they came to Him, bringing a (C)paralytic who was carried by four men. And when they could not come near Him because of the crowd, they uncovered the roof where He was. So when they had broken through, they let down the bed on which the paralytic was lying.

When Jesus saw their faith, He said to the paralytic, “Son, your sins are forgiven you.”

And some of the scribes were sitting there and reasoning in their hearts, “Why does this Man speak blasphemies like this? (D)Who can forgive sins but God alone?”

But immediately, when Jesus perceived in His spirit that they reasoned thus within themselves, He said to them, “Why do you reason about these things in your hearts? (E)Which is easier, to say to the paralytic, ‘Your sins are forgiven you,’ or to say, ‘Arise, take up your bed and walk’? 10 But that you may know that the Son of Man has [b]power on earth to forgive sins”—He said to the paralytic, 11 “I say to you, arise, take up your bed, and go to your house.” 12 Immediately he arose, took up the bed, and went out in the presence of them all, so that all were amazed and (F)glorified God, saying, “We never saw anything like this!”

Matthew the Tax Collector(G)

13 (H)Then He went out again by the sea; and all the multitude came to Him, and He taught them. 14 (I)As He passed by, He saw Levi the son of Alphaeus sitting at the tax office. And He said to him, (J)“Follow Me.” So he arose and (K)followed Him.

15 (L)Now it happened, as He was dining in Levi’s house, that many tax collectors and sinners also sat together with Jesus and His disciples; for there were many, and they followed Him. 16 And when the scribes [c]and Pharisees saw Him eating with the tax collectors and sinners, they said to His disciples, “How is it that He eats and drinks with tax collectors and sinners?”

17 When Jesus heard it, He said to them, (M)“Those who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick. I did not come to call the righteous, but sinners, [d]to repentance.”

Jesus Is Questioned About Fasting(N)

18 (O)The disciples of John and of the Pharisees were fasting. Then they came and said to Him, “Why do the disciples of John and of the Pharisees fast, but Your disciples do not fast?”

19 And Jesus said to them, “Can the [e]friends of the bridegroom fast while the bridegroom is with them? As long as they have the bridegroom with them they cannot fast. 20 But the days will come when the bridegroom will be (P)taken away from them, and then they will fast in those days. 21 No one sews a piece of unshrunk cloth on an old garment; or else the new piece pulls away from the old, and the tear is made worse. 22 And no one puts new wine into old wineskins; or else the new wine bursts the wineskins, the wine is spilled, and the wineskins are ruined. But new wine must be put into new wineskins.”

Jesus Is Lord of the Sabbath(Q)

23 (R)Now it happened that He went through the grainfields on the Sabbath; and as they went His disciples began (S)to pluck the heads of grain. 24 And the Pharisees said to Him, “Look, why do they do what is (T)not lawful on the Sabbath?”

25 But He said to them, “Have you never read (U)what David did when he was in need and hungry, he and those with him: 26 how he went into the house of God in the days of Abiathar the high priest, and ate the showbread, (V)which is not lawful to eat except for the priests, and also gave some to those who were with him?”

27 And He said to them, “The Sabbath was made for man, and not man for the (W)Sabbath. 28 Therefore (X)the Son of Man is also Lord of the Sabbath.”
