Ang Pagtawag ni Jesus sa Unang Apat na Alagad(A)
5 Minsan,(B) habang nakatayo si Jesus sa tabi ng Lawa ng Genesaret, nagsiksikan ang napakaraming tao sa paglapit sa kanya upang makinig ng salita ng Diyos. 2 May nakita siyang dalawang bangka sa baybayin; nililinisan ng mga mangingisda ang kanilang mga lambat at wala sila sa kanilang mga bangka. 3 Sumakay siya sa isa sa mga ito na pag-aari ni Simon. Hiniling niya rito na ilayo nang kaunti ang bangka mula sa baybayin. Naupo siya sa bangka at nangaral sa mga tao.
4 Pagkatapos niyang mangaral, sinabi niya kay Simon, “Pumalaot kayo at ihulog ang mga lambat upang manghuli.”
5 Sumagot(C) si Simon, “Guro, magdamag po kaming nagpagod ngunit wala kaming nahuli! Ngunit dahil sa sinabi ninyo, ihuhulog ko ang mga lambat.” 6 Ganoon(D) nga ang ginawa nila, at nakahuli sila ng maraming isda, kaya't halos mapunit ang kanilang mga lambat. 7 Kinawayan nila ang kanilang mga kasamahang nasa kabilang bangka upang magpatulong. Lumapit naman ang mga ito at napuno nila ang dalawang bangka, anupa't halos lumubog ang mga ito. 8 Nang makita iyon ni Simon Pedro, siya'y lumuhod sa harap ni Jesus at sinabi, “Lumayo kayo sa akin, Panginoon, sapagkat ako'y isang makasalanan.”
9 Nanggilalas siya at ang kanyang mga kasama dahil sa dami ng kanilang huli, 10 gayundin sina Santiago at Juan na mga anak ni Zebedeo at mga kasosyo ni Simon. Sinabi ni Jesus kay Simon, “Huwag kang matakot. Mula ngayo'y mga tao na, sa halip na mga isda, ang iyong huhulihin.”
11 Nang maitabi na nila ang mga bangka sa pampang, iniwan nila ang lahat at sumunod kay Jesus.
Pinagaling ni Jesus ang Isang Ketongin(E)
12 Nang si Jesus ay nasa isang bayan, nakita siya ng isang lalaking ketongin. Nagpatirapa ito at nakiusap, “Panginoon, kung nais po ninyo, ako'y inyong mapapagaling at magagawang malinis.”[a]
13 Hinawakan siya ni Jesus at sinabi, “Nais ko. Gumaling ka at luminis!” At noon di'y nawala ang kanyang ketong. 14 Pinagbilinan(F) siya ni Jesus, “Huwag mong sasabihin ito kaninuman. Sa halip ay pumunta ka sa pari at magpasuri sa kanya. Pagkatapos, mag-alay ka ng handog ayon sa iniuutos ni Moises bilang patotoo sa mga tao na ikaw nga'y magaling na.”
15 Ngunit lalo pang kumalat ang balita tungkol kay Jesus, kaya't dumaragsa ang napakaraming tao upang makinig sa kanya at mapagaling sa kanilang mga sakit. 16 Ngunit si Jesus naman ay pumupunta sa mga ilang na lugar upang manalangin.
Pinagaling ang Isang Paralitiko(G)
17 Minsan, habang si Jesus ay nagtuturo, may mga Pariseo at mga tagapagturo ng Kautusan na nakaupo doon. Sila'y galing sa bawat bayan ng Galilea at Judea, at sa Jerusalem. Taglay ni Jesus ang kapangyarihan ng Panginoon upang siya'y magpagaling ng mga maysakit. 18 Dumating ang ilang lalaking may dalang isang paralitiko na nakaratay sa higaan. Sinikap nilang makapasok sa bahay upang mailagay ang maysakit sa harapan ni Jesus. 19 Ngunit wala silang madaanan dahil sa dami ng tao, kaya't umakyat sila sa bubungan, binakbak ito at ibinabâ sa harapan ni Jesus ang paralitikong nasa higaan. 20 Nang makita ni Jesus ang kanilang pananampalataya, sinabi niya sa paralitiko, “Kaibigan, pinapatawad na ang iyong mga kasalanan.”
21 Pagkarinig nito'y nag-usap-usap ang mga tagapagturo ng Kautusan at mga Pariseo, “Sino itong nagsasalita ng kalapastanganan sa Diyos? Hindi ba't Diyos lamang ang makakapagpatawad ng mga kasalanan?”
22 Palibhasa'y alam ni Jesus ang kanilang pag-uusap, sinabi niya sa kanila, “Bakit kayo nag-iisip nang ganyan? 23 Alin ba ang mas madaling sabihin, ‘Pinapatawad na ang iyong mga kasalanan,’ o ‘Tumayo ka at lumakad’? 24 Ngunit upang malaman ninyo na ang Anak ng Tao ay may kapangyarihang magpatawad ng mga kasalanan dito sa lupa…” sinabi niya sa paralitiko, “Tumayo ka, buhatin mo ang iyong higaan, at umuwi ka na!” 25 Agad namang tumayo ang lalaki, at sa harap ng lahat ay binuhat niya ang kanyang higaan at umuwing nagpupuri sa Diyos. 26 Nanggilalas ang mga naroroon at nagpuri sila sa Diyos. Sa pagkamangha ay sinabi nila, “Nakakita tayo ngayon ng mga kahanga-hangang bagay!”
Ang Pagtawag kay Levi(H)
27 Pagkatapos nito'y lumabas si Jesus at nakita niya si Levi, isang maniningil ng buwis, na nakaupo sa tanggapan ng buwis. Sinabi sa kanya ni Jesus, “Sumunod ka sa akin.” 28 Tumayo nga si Levi, iniwan ang lahat, at sumunod kay Jesus.
29 Si Jesus ay hinandugan ni Levi ng isang malaking handaan sa kanyang bahay. Kasalo niya roon ang maraming maniningil ng buwis at iba pang mga tao. 30 Kaya't(I) nagbulung-bulungan ang mga Pariseo at ang mga kasamahan nilang tagapagturo ng Kautusan. Sinabi nila sa mga alagad ni Jesus, “Bakit kayo kumakain at umiinom na kasalo ng mga maniningil ng buwis at ng mga makasalanan?”
31 Sinagot sila ni Jesus, “Hindi nangangailangan ng manggagamot ang walang sakit kundi ang maysakit. 32 Hindi ako naparito upang tawagin ang mga matuwid, kundi ang mga makasalanan upang sila'y magsisi.”
Katanungan tungkol sa Pag-aayuno(J)
33 May ilan namang nagsabi kay Jesus ng ganito: “Ang mga alagad ni Juan ay malimit mag-ayuno at manalangin, gayundin ang mga alagad ng mga Pariseo. Subalit ang mga alagad mo'y patuloy sa pagkain at pag-inom.”
34 Sumagot si Jesus, “Hinahayaan ba ninyong hindi kumain ang mga panauhin sa kasalan habang kasama pa nila ang lalaking ikinasal? Di ba hindi? 35 Darating ang araw na kukunin sa kanila ang lalaking ikinasal, at saka sila mag-aayuno.”
36 Sinabi rin niya sa kanila ang isang talinghaga, “Walang pumipiraso sa bagong damit upang itagpi sa luma. Kapag ganoon ang ginawa, masasayang ang bagong damit at ang tagping mula rito ay hindi naman babagay sa damit na luma. 37 Wala ring naglalagay ng bagong alak sa lumang sisidlang-balat. Kapag ganoon ang ginawa, papuputukin ng bagong alak ang lumang sisidlan, matatapon ang alak at masisira ang sisidlan. 38 Sa bagong sisidlang-balat dapat ilagay ang bagong alak. 39 Kapag nakainom ka na ng lumang alak, hindi mo na gugustuhing uminom ng bagong alak. Ang sasabihin mo, ‘Mas masarap ang lumang alak.’”

Jesus’ First Followers
5 One day Jesus was standing beside Lake Galilee. Many people were pressing all around him. They wanted to hear the word of God. 2 Jesus saw two boats at the shore of the lake. The fishermen had left them and were washing their nets. 3 Jesus got into one of the boats, the one which belonged to Simon.[a] Jesus asked Simon to push off a little from the land. Then Jesus sat down in the boat and continued to teach the people on the shore.
4 When Jesus had finished speaking, he said to Simon, “Take the boat into deep water. If you will put your nets in the water, you will catch some fish.”
5 Simon answered, “Master, we worked hard all night trying to catch fish, but we caught nothing. But you say to put the nets in the water; so I will.” 6 The fishermen did as Jesus told them. And they caught so many fish that the nets began to break. 7 They called to their friends in the other boat to come and help them. The friends came, and both boats were filled so full that they were almost sinking.
8-9 The fishermen were all amazed at the many fish they caught. When Simon Peter saw what had happened, he bowed down before Jesus and said, “Go away from me, Lord. I am a sinful man!” 10 James and John, the sons of Zebedee, were amazed too. (James and John were Simon’s partners.)
Jesus said to Simon, “Don’t be afraid. From now on you will be fishermen for men.” 11 When the men brought their boats to the shore, they left everything and followed Jesus.
Jesus Heals a Sick Man
12 One time Jesus was in a town where a very sick man lived. The man was covered with a harmful skin disease. When he saw Jesus, he bowed before Jesus and begged him, “Lord, heal me. I know you can if you want to.”
13 Jesus said, “I want to. Be healed!” And Jesus touched the man. Immediately the disease disappeared. 14 Then Jesus said, “Don’t tell anyone about what happened. But go show yourself to the priest.[b] And offer a gift to God for your healing as Moses commanded.[c] This will prove to everyone that you are healed.”
15 But the news about Jesus was spreading more and more. Many people came to hear Jesus and to be healed of their sicknesses. 16 But Jesus often slipped away to other places to be alone so that he could pray.
Jesus Heals a Paralyzed Man
17 One day Jesus was teaching the people. The Pharisees and teachers of the law were there, too. They had come from every town in Galilee and from Judea and Jerusalem. The Lord was giving Jesus the power to heal people. 18 There was a man who was paralyzed. Some men were carrying him on a mat. They tried to bring him in and put him down before Jesus. 19 But because there were so many people there, they could not find a way to Jesus. So the men went up on the roof and made a hole in the ceiling. They lowered the mat so that the paralyzed man was lying right before Jesus. 20 Jesus saw that these men believed. So he said to the sick man, “Friend, your sins are forgiven.”
21 The Jewish teachers of the law and the Pharisees thought to themselves, “Who is this man? He is saying things that are against God! Only God can forgive sins.”
22 But Jesus knew what they were thinking. He said, “Why do you have thoughts like that in your hearts? 23 Which is easier: to tell this paralyzed man, ‘Your sins are forgiven,’ or to tell him, ‘Stand up and walk’? 24 But I will prove to you that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins.” So Jesus said to the paralyzed man, “I tell you, stand up! Take your mat and go home.”
25 Then the man stood up before the people there. He picked up his mat and went home, praising God. 26 All the people were fully amazed and began to praise God. They were filled with much respect and said, “Today we have seen amazing things!”
Levi Follows Jesus
27 After this, Jesus went out and saw a tax collector named Levi sitting in the tax office. Jesus said to him, “Follow me!” 28 Levi got up, left everything, and followed Jesus.
29 Then Levi gave a big dinner for Jesus. The dinner was at Levi’s house. At the table there were many tax collectors and other people, too. 30 But the Pharisees and the men who taught the law for the Pharisees began to complain to the followers of Jesus. They said, “Why do you eat and drink with tax collectors and ‘sinners’?”
31 Jesus answered them, “Healthy people don’t need a doctor. It is the sick who need a doctor. 32 I have not come to invite good people. I have come to invite sinners to change their hearts and lives!”
Jesus Answers a Question
33 They said to Jesus, “John’s followers often give up eating[d] and pray, just as the Pharisees do. But your followers eat and drink all the time.”
34 Jesus said to them, “When there is a wedding, you cannot make the friends of the bridegroom give up eating while he is still with them. 35 But the time will come when he will be taken away from them. Then his friends will give up eating.”
36 Jesus told them this story: “No one takes cloth off a new coat to cover a hole in an old coat. If he does, he ruins the new coat, and the cloth from the new coat will not be the same as the old cloth. 37 People never pour new wine into old leather bags for holding wine. If they do, the new wine will break the bags, and the wine will spill out. Then the leather bags for holding wine will be ruined. 38 People always put new wine into new leather bags. 39 No one after drinking old wine wants new wine because he says, ‘The old wine is better.’”
