医治瘫子

耶稣坐船回到湖对岸自己住的城镇。

有人用担架把一个瘫子抬到耶稣面前。耶稣看见他们的信心,就对瘫子说:“孩子,放心吧!你的罪得到赦免了。”

几个律法教师听了,心里想:“这个人是在亵渎上帝。”

耶稣知道他们的心思,就说:“你们为什么心怀恶念呢? 说‘你的罪得到赦免了’容易呢?还是说‘你起来行走’容易呢? 如今我要让你们知道人子在世上有赦罪的权柄。”于是祂对瘫子说:“起来!收拾你的担架回家去吧。”

那人立刻站起来,回家去了。 看见的人都充满了敬畏,就赞美把这样的权柄赐给人的上帝。

呼召马太

耶稣离开那里往前走,看见一个名叫马太的人坐在收税站里,便对他说:“跟从我!”马太就站起来跟从了耶稣。

10 耶稣在马太家里坐席的时候,很多税吏和罪人前来跟耶稣和祂的门徒一起坐席。 11 法利赛人看见了,就质问耶稣的门徒:“你们的老师为何跟税吏和罪人一起吃饭?” 12 耶稣听见后,答道:“健康的人不需要医生,有病的人才需要。 13 圣经上说,‘我喜爱怜悯之心,而非祭物’,你们去揣摩这句话的意思吧。我来不是要召义人,乃是要召罪人。”

禁食的问题

14 那时,约翰的门徒来问耶稣:“我们和法利赛人常常禁食,为什么你的门徒不禁食呢?”

15 耶稣对他们说:“新郎和宾客还在一起的时候,宾客怎能悲伤呢?但有一天新郎将被带走,那时他们就要禁食了。

16 “没有人用新布缝补旧衣,恐怕新布会把旧衣扯破,破洞会更大。 17 也没有人用旧皮囊来盛新酒,否则皮囊会胀破,酒也漏了,皮囊也毁了。人们总是把新酒装在新皮囊里,以便两样都能保住。”

起死回生

18 当耶稣在说话的时候,来了一个管理会堂的人跪在祂面前,说:“我的女儿刚刚死了,请你去把手按在她身上,她就会活过来。” 19 耶稣和门徒就起身跟着他去了。 20 途中,有一个患了十二年血漏病的女人挤到耶稣的背后,摸了一下祂衣服的穗边, 21 因为她心想:“我只要摸到祂的衣服,病就会好。” 22 耶稣转过头来,看见她,就说:“女儿,放心吧,你的信心救了你。”就在那一刻,她的顽疾痊愈了。

23 耶稣来到管理会堂之人的家,看见殡葬的吹乐手和乱嚷嚷的人群, 24 就吩咐他们:“你们出去吧,这女孩并没有死,只是睡着了。”他们都讥笑祂。

25 耶稣让众人都出去,然后进去拉着女孩的手,女孩就起来了。 26 这件事传遍了整个地区。

医治瞎子和哑巴

27 耶稣从那里往前走,有两个瞎子跟着祂,高声呼叫:“大卫的后裔啊,可怜我们吧!”

28 耶稣进了房子,那两个瞎子来到祂面前。耶稣问他们:“你们相信我能做这事吗?”他们说:“主啊,我们相信。”

29 于是,耶稣摸他们的眼睛,并说:“照你们的信心成全你们吧。” 30 他们立刻得见光明。耶稣郑重地叮嘱他们:“不要张扬这件事。” 31 但他们出去后把祂所行的事传遍了那一带。

32 他们正要离去,有人带着一个被鬼附身的哑巴来见耶稣。 33 耶稣把鬼赶出去后,哑巴就能说话了。

众人都感到惊奇,说:“在以色列从未见过这样的事。”

34 法利赛人却说:“祂只不过是靠鬼王赶鬼。”

耶稣怜悯众人

35 耶稣走遍了各城各乡,在会堂里教导人,传讲天国的福音,医治各样的疾病。 36 祂看见众人,心里怜悯他们,因为他们困苦无助,好像没有牧人的羊。 37 耶稣对门徒说:“要收割的庄稼很多,工人却很少。 38 因此,你们要祈求庄稼的主人派更多的工人去收割。”

Healing of a man who was paralyzed

Boarding a boat, Jesus crossed to the other side of the lake and went to his own city. People brought to him a man who was paralyzed, lying on a cot. When Jesus saw their faith, he said to the man who was paralyzed, “Be encouraged, my child, your sins are forgiven.”

Some legal experts said among themselves, “This man is insulting God.”

But Jesus knew what they were thinking and said, “Why do you fill your minds with evil things? Which is easier—to say, ‘Your sins are forgiven,’ or to say, ‘Get up and walk’? But so you will know that the Human One[a] has authority on the earth to forgive sins”—he said to the man who was paralyzed—“Get up, take your cot, and go home.” The man got up and went home. When the crowds saw what had happened, they were afraid and praised God, who had given such authority to human beings.

Calling of Matthew

As Jesus continued on from there, he saw a man named Matthew sitting at a kiosk for collecting taxes. He said to him, “Follow me,” and he got up and followed him. 10 As Jesus sat down to eat in Matthew’s house, many tax collectors and sinners joined Jesus and his disciples at the table.

11 But when the Pharisees saw this, they said to his disciples, “Why does your teacher eat with tax collectors and sinners?”

12 When Jesus heard it, he said, “Healthy people don’t need a doctor, but sick people do. 13 Go and learn what this means: I want mercy and not sacrifice.[b] I didn’t come to call righteous people, but sinners.”

Question about fasting

14 At that time John’s disciples came and asked Jesus, “Why do we and the Pharisees frequently fast, but your disciples never fast?”

15 Jesus responded, “The wedding guests can’t mourn while the groom is still with them, can they? But the days will come when the groom will be taken away from them, and then they’ll fast.

16 “No one sews a piece of new, unshrunk cloth on old clothes because the patch tears away the cloth and makes a worse tear. 17 No one pours new wine into old wineskins. If they did, the wineskins would burst, the wine would spill, and the wineskins would be ruined. Instead, people pour new wine into new wineskins so that both are kept safe.”

A ruler’s daughter and the woman who touched Jesus’ clothes

18 While Jesus was speaking to them, a ruler came and knelt in front of him, saying, “My daughter has just died. But come and place your hand on her, and she’ll live.” 19 So Jesus and his disciples got up and went with him. 20 Then a woman who had been bleeding for twelve years came up behind Jesus and touched the hem of his clothes. 21 She thought, If I only touch his robe I’ll be healed.

22 When Jesus turned and saw her, he said, “Be encouraged, daughter. Your faith has healed you.” And the woman was healed from that time on.

23 When Jesus went into the ruler’s house, he saw the flute players and the distressed crowd. 24 He said, “Go away, because the little girl isn’t dead but is asleep”; but they laughed at him. 25 After he had sent the crowd away, Jesus went in and touched her hand, and the little girl rose up. 26 News about this spread throughout that whole region.

Healing of two blind men

27 As Jesus departed, two blind men followed him, crying out, “Show us mercy, Son of David.”

28 When he came into the house, the blind men approached him. Jesus said to them, “Do you believe I can do this?”

“Yes, Lord,” they replied.

29 Then Jesus touched their eyes and said, “It will happen for you just as you have believed.” 30 Their eyes were opened. Then Jesus sternly warned them, “Make sure nobody knows about this.” 31 But they went out and spread the word about him throughout that whole region.

Healing of a man unable to speak

32 As they were leaving, people brought to him a man who was demon-possessed and unable to speak. 33 When Jesus had thrown out the demon, the man who couldn’t speak began to talk. The crowds were amazed and said, “Nothing like this has ever been seen in Israel.”

34 But the Pharisees said, “He throws out demons with the authority of the ruler of demons.”

Compassion

35 Jesus traveled among all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues, announcing the good news of the kingdom, and healing every disease and every sickness. 36 Now when Jesus saw the crowds, he had compassion for them because they were troubled and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd. 37 Then he said to his disciples, “The size of the harvest is bigger than you can imagine, but there are few workers. 38 Therefore, plead with the Lord of the harvest to send out workers for his harvest.”

  1. Matthew 9:6 Or Son of Man
  2. Matthew 9:13 Hos 6:6

Jesús sana a un paralítico(A)

Después de esto, Jesús subió a la barca, cruzó a la otra orilla y fue a su ciudad. Allí le llevaron un paralítico, tendido sobre una camilla. Cuando Jesús vio la fe de ellos, le dijo al paralítico: «Ten ánimo, hijo; los pecados te son perdonados.» Algunos de los escribas se decían a sí mismos: «Éste blasfema.» Pero Jesús, que conocía los pensamientos de ellos, dijo: «¿Por qué piensan mal dentro de ustedes mismos? ¿Qué es más fácil? ¿Que le diga “los pecados te son perdonados”, o que le diga “levántate y anda”? Pues para que ustedes sepan que el Hijo del Hombre tiene autoridad en la tierra para perdonar pecados, entonces éste le dice al paralítico: “Levántate, toma tu camilla, y vete a tu casa.”» Entonces el paralítico se levantó y se fue a su casa. Al ver esto, la gente se quedó asombrada y glorificó a Dios, que había dado tal poder a los hombres.

Llamamiento de Mateo(B)

Al continuar su camino, Jesús vio a un hombre llamado Mateo, que estaba sentado donde se cobraban los impuestos, y le dijo: «Sígueme.» Y Mateo se levantó y lo siguió. 10 Estando Jesús en la casa, sentado a la mesa, muchos cobradores de impuestos y pecadores que habían venido se sentaron también a la mesa, con Jesús y sus discípulos. 11 Cuando los fariseos vieron esto, dijeron a los discípulos: «¿Por qué come su Maestro con cobradores de impuestos y con pecadores?»(C) 12 Al oír esto, Jesús les dijo: «No son los sanos los que necesitan de un médico, sino los enfermos. 13 Vayan y aprendan lo que significa(D) “Misericordia quiero, y no sacrificio”.(E) Porque no he venido a llamar a los justos al arrepentimiento, sino a los pecadores.»

La pregunta sobre el ayuno(F)

14 Los discípulos de Juan se le acercaron entonces, y le preguntaron: «¿Por qué nosotros y los fariseos ayunamos muchas veces, y tus discípulos no?» 15 Jesús les respondió: «¿Acaso los invitados a una boda pueden estar de luto mientras el esposo está con ellos? ¡Claro que no! Pero vendrán días, cuando el esposo les será quitado. Entonces ayunarán.» 16 Nadie remienda un vestido viejo con un paño de tela nueva, porque la tela nueva estira la tela vieja, y la rotura se hace peor. 17 Ni tampoco se echa vino nuevo en odres viejos, porque el vino nuevo revienta los odres, y entonces el vino se derrama y los odres se echan a perder. Más bien, el vino nuevo debe echarse en odres nuevos, y tanto lo uno como lo otro se conserva juntamente.

La hija de Jairo, y la mujer que tocó el manto de Jesús(G)

18 Mientras él les decía estas cosas, un magistrado vino y se arrodilló ante él, y le dijo: «Mi hija acaba de morir; pero ven y pon tu mano sobre ella, y ella volverá a la vida.» 19 Jesús se levantó y lo siguió con sus discípulos. 20 En eso, una mujer que desde hacía doce años padecía de hemorragias, se le acercó por detrás y tocó el borde de su manto, 21 pues pensaba: «Si alcanzo a tocar tan sólo su manto, me sanaré.» 22 Pero Jesús se volvió a mirarla y le dijo: «Ten ánimo, hija; tu fe te ha salvado.» Y a partir de ese momento la mujer quedó sana. 23 Cuando Jesús entró en la casa del magistrado, vio a los que tocaban flautas y a la gente que hacía alboroto, 24 y les dijo: «Váyanse, porque la niña no está muerta, sino dormida.» Ellos se burlaron de él. 25 Pero luego de despedir a la gente, él entró y tomó de la mano a la niña, y ella se levantó. 26 Esta noticia se difundió por toda aquella región.

Dos ciegos reciben la vista

27 Cuando Jesús salió de allí, dos ciegos lo siguieron, y a gritos le decían: «¡Ten misericordia de nosotros, Hijo de David!» 28 Cuando Jesús llegó a la casa, los ciegos se le acercaron y él les preguntó: «¿Creen que puedo hacer esto?» Ellos dijeron: «Sí, Señor.» 29 Entonces les tocó los ojos, y les dijo: «Que se haga con ustedes conforme a su fe.» 30 Y los ojos de ellos fueron abiertos. Pero Jesús les encargó con mucha firmeza: «Asegúrense de que nadie sepa esto.» 31 Sin embargo, en cuanto ellos salieron, divulgaron la fama de él por toda aquella región.

Un mudo habla

32 En el momento en que salían, le trajeron a Jesús un mudo que estaba endemoniado. 33 En cuanto el demonio fue expulsado, el mudo comenzó a hablar. Y la gente se asombraba y decía: «¡Nunca se ha visto nada igual en Israel!» 34 Pero los fariseos decían: «Éste expulsa a los demonios por el poder del príncipe de los demonios.»(H)

La mies es mucha

35 Jesús recorría todas las ciudades y las aldeas, y enseñaba en las sinagogas de ellos, predicaba el evangelio del reino y sanaba toda enfermedad y toda dolencia del pueblo.(I) 36 Al ver las multitudes, Jesús tuvo compasión de ellas porque estaban desamparadas y dispersas, como ovejas que no tienen pastor.(J) 37 Entonces dijo a sus discípulos: «Ciertamente, es mucha la mies, pero son pocos los segadores. 38 Por tanto, pidan al Señor de la mies que envíe segadores a cosechar la mies.»(K)

Jesus Forgives and Heals a Paralyzed Man(A)

Jesus stepped into a boat, crossed over and came to his own town.(B) 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)

At this, some of the teachers of the law said to themselves, “This fellow is blaspheming!”(G)

Knowing their thoughts,(H) Jesus said, “Why do you entertain evil thoughts in your hearts? Which is easier: to say, ‘Your sins are forgiven,’ or to say, ‘Get up and walk’? 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.” Then the man got up and went home. 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)

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.”

  1. Matthew 9:13 Hosea 6:6

医治瘫子

耶稣上了船,渡过海,来到自己的城里。 有人用褥子抬着一个瘫子到耶稣跟前来。耶稣见他们的信心,就对瘫子说:“小子,放心吧,你的罪赦了!” 有几个文士心里说:“这个人说僭妄的话了!” 耶稣知道他们的心意,就说:“你们为什么心里怀着恶念呢? 或说‘你的罪赦了’,或说‘你起来行走’,哪一样容易呢? 但要叫你们知道,人子在地上有赦罪的权柄。”就对瘫子说:“起来,拿你的褥子回家去吧!” 那人就起来,回家去了。 众人看见都惊奇,就归荣耀于神,因为他将这样的权柄赐给人。

马太被召

耶稣从那里往前走,看见一个人,名叫马太,坐在税关上,就对他说:“你跟从我来!”他就起来跟从了耶稣。

10 耶稣在屋里坐席的时候,有好些税吏和罪人来,与耶稣和他的门徒一同坐席。 11 法利赛人看见,就对耶稣的门徒说:“你们的先生为什么和税吏并罪人一同吃饭呢?” 12 耶稣听见就说:“康健的人用不着医生,有病的人才用得着。 13 经上说:‘我喜爱怜恤不喜爱祭祀’,这句话的意思你们且去揣摩;我来本不是召义人,乃是召罪人。”

新旧难合的比喻

14 那时,约翰的门徒来见耶稣,说:“我们和法利赛人常常禁食,你的门徒倒不禁食,这是为什么呢?” 15 耶稣对他们说:“新郎和陪伴之人同在的时候,陪伴之人岂能哀恸呢?但日子将到,新郎要离开他们,那时候他们就要禁食。 16 没有人把新布补在旧衣服上,因为所补上的反带坏了那衣服,破的就更大了。 17 也没有人把新酒装在旧皮袋里,若是这样,皮袋就裂开,酒漏出来,连皮袋也坏了。唯独把新酒装在新皮袋里,两样就都保全了。”

医患血漏的女人

18 耶稣说这话的时候,有一个管会堂的来拜他,说:“我女儿刚才死了,求你去按手在她身上,她就必活了。” 19 耶稣便起来跟着他去,门徒也跟了去。 20 有一个女人患了十二年的血漏,来到耶稣背后,摸他的衣裳穗子, 21 因为她心里说:“我只摸他的衣裳,就必痊愈。” 22 耶稣转过来看见她,就说:“女儿,放心!你的信救了你。”从那时候,女人就痊愈了。

医治管会堂者的女儿

23 耶稣到了管会堂的家里,看见有吹手,又有许多人乱嚷, 24 就说:“退去吧!这闺女不是死了,是睡着了。”他们就嗤笑他。 25 众人既被撵出,耶稣就进去,拉着闺女的手,闺女便起来了。 26 于是这风声传遍了那地方。

两个瞎子得医治

27 耶稣从那里往前走,有两个瞎子跟着他,喊叫说:“大卫的子孙,可怜我们吧!” 28 耶稣进了房子,瞎子就来到他跟前,耶稣说:“你们信我能做这事吗?”他们说:“主啊,我们信。” 29 耶稣就摸他们的眼睛,说:“照着你们的信给你们成全了吧!” 30 他们的眼睛就开了。耶稣切切地嘱咐他们,说:“你们要小心,不可叫人知道。” 31 他们出去,竟把他的名声传遍了那地方。

赶出哑巴鬼

32 他们出去的时候,有人将鬼所附的一个哑巴带到耶稣跟前来。 33 鬼被赶出去,哑巴就说出话来。众人都稀奇说:“在以色列中从来没有见过这样的事!” 34 法利赛人却说:“他是靠着鬼王赶鬼。”

35 耶稣走遍各城各乡,在会堂里教训人,宣讲天国的福音,又医治各样的病症。 36 他看见许多的人,就怜悯他们,因为他们困苦流离,如同羊没有牧人一般。 37 于是对门徒说:“要收的庄稼多,做工的人少。 38 所以,你们当求庄稼的主打发工人出去收他的庄稼。”
