Luke 5
New King James Version
Four Fishermen Called as Disciples(A)
5 So (B)it was, as the multitude pressed about Him to (C)hear the word of God, that He stood by the Lake of Gennesaret, 2 and saw two boats standing by the lake; but the fishermen had gone from them and were washing their nets. 3 Then He got into one of the boats, which was Simon’s, and asked him to put out a little from the land. And He (D)sat down and taught the multitudes from the boat.
4 When He had stopped speaking, He said to Simon, (E)“Launch out into the deep and let down your nets for a catch.”
5 But Simon answered and said to Him, “Master, we have toiled all night and caught (F)nothing; nevertheless (G)at Your word I will let down the net.” 6 And when they had done this, they caught a great number of fish, and their net was breaking. 7 So they signaled to their partners in the other boat to come and help them. And they came and filled both the boats, so that they began to sink. 8 When Simon Peter saw it, he fell down at Jesus’ knees, saying, (H)“Depart from me, for I am a sinful man, O Lord!”
9 For he and all who were with him were (I)astonished at the catch of fish which they had taken; 10 and so also were James and John, the sons of Zebedee, who were partners with Simon. And Jesus said to Simon, “Do not be afraid. (J)From now on you will catch men.” 11 So when they had brought their boats to land, (K)they [a]forsook all and followed Him.
Jesus Cleanses a Leper(L)
12 (M)And it happened when He was in a certain city, that behold, a man who was full of (N)leprosy saw Jesus; and he fell on his face and [b]implored Him, saying, “Lord, if You are willing, You can make me clean.”
13 Then He put out His hand and touched him, saying, “I am willing; be cleansed.” (O)Immediately the leprosy left him. 14 (P)And He charged him to tell no one, “But go and show yourself to the priest, and make an offering for your cleansing, as a testimony to them, (Q)just as Moses commanded.”
15 However, (R)the report went around concerning Him all the more; and (S)great multitudes came together to hear, and to be healed by Him of their infirmities. 16 (T)So He Himself often withdrew into the wilderness and (U)prayed.
Jesus Forgives and Heals a Paralytic(V)
17 Now it happened on a certain day, as He was teaching, that there were Pharisees and teachers of the law sitting by, who had come out of every town of Galilee, Judea, and Jerusalem. And the power of the Lord was present [c]to heal them. 18 (W)Then behold, men brought on a bed a man who was paralyzed, whom they sought to bring in and lay before Him. 19 And when they could not find how they might bring him in, because of the crowd, they went up on the housetop and let him down with his bed through the tiling into the midst (X)before Jesus.
20 When He saw their faith, He said to him, “Man, your sins are forgiven you.”
21 (Y)And the scribes and the Pharisees began to reason, saying, “Who is this who speaks blasphemies? (Z)Who can forgive sins but God alone?”
22 But when Jesus (AA)perceived their thoughts, He answered and said to them, “Why are you reasoning in your hearts? 23 Which is easier, to say, ‘Your sins are forgiven you,’ or to say, ‘Rise up and walk’? 24 But that you may know that the Son of Man has power on earth to forgive sins”—He said to the man who was paralyzed, (AB)“I say to you, arise, take up your bed, and go to your house.”
25 Immediately he rose up before them, took up what he had been lying on, and departed to his own house, (AC)glorifying God. 26 And they were all amazed, and they (AD)glorified God and were filled with fear, saying, “We have seen strange things today!”
Matthew the Tax Collector(AE)
27 (AF)After these things He went out and saw a tax collector named Levi, sitting at the tax office. And He said to him, (AG)“Follow Me.” 28 So he left all, rose up, and (AH)followed Him.
29 (AI)Then Levi gave Him a great feast in his own house. And (AJ)there were a great number of tax collectors and others who sat down with them. 30 [d]And their scribes and the Pharisees [e]complained against His disciples, saying, (AK)“Why do You eat and drink with tax collectors and sinners?”
31 Jesus answered and said to them, “Those who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick. 32 (AL)I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners, to repentance.”
Jesus Is Questioned About Fasting(AM)
33 Then they said to Him, (AN)“Why[f] do the disciples of John fast often and make prayers, and likewise those of the Pharisees, but Yours eat and drink?”
34 And He said to them, “Can you make the friends of the bridegroom fast while the (AO)bridegroom is with them? 35 But the days will come when the bridegroom will be taken away from them; then they will fast in those days.”
36 (AP)Then He spoke a parable to them: “No one [g]puts a piece from a new garment on an old one; otherwise the new makes a tear, and also the piece that was taken out of the new does not match the old. 37 And no one puts new wine into old wineskins; or else the new wine will burst the wineskins and be spilled, and the wineskins will be ruined. 38 But new wine must be put into new wineskins, [h]and both are preserved. 39 And no one, having drunk old wine, [i]immediately desires new; for he says, ‘The old is [j]better.’ ”

English Standard Version
Jesus Calls the First Disciples
5 On one occasion, while the crowd was pressing in on him to hear the word of God, he was standing by (A)the lake of Gennesaret, 2 (B)and he saw two boats by the lake, but the fishermen had gone out of them and were (C)washing their nets. 3 Getting into one of the boats, which was Simon's, he asked him to put out a little from the land. And (D)he sat down and taught the people from the boat. 4 And when he had finished speaking, he said to Simon, (E)“Put out into the deep and let down your nets for a catch.” 5 And Simon answered, “Master, (F)we toiled all night and took nothing! But at your word I will let down the nets.” 6 And when they had done this, (G)they enclosed a large number of fish, and (H)their nets were breaking. 7 They signaled to their partners in the other boat to come and help them. (I)And they came and filled both the boats, so that they began to sink. 8 But when Simon Peter saw it, he fell down at Jesus' knees, saying, (J)“Depart from me, for (K)I am a sinful man, O Lord.” 9 For he and all who were with him were astonished at the catch of fish that they had taken, 10 and so also were James and John, sons of Zebedee, who were partners with Simon. And Jesus said to Simon, “Do not be afraid; from now on you will be catching men.”[a] 11 And when they had brought their boats to land, (L)they left everything and followed him.
Jesus Cleanses a Leper
12 While he was in one of the cities, (M)there came a man full of leprosy.[b] And when he saw Jesus, he (N)fell on his face and begged him, “Lord, (O)if you will, you can make me clean.” 13 And Jesus[c] stretched out his hand and touched him, saying, “I will; be clean.” And immediately the leprosy left him. 14 And he charged him (P)to tell no one, but “go and show (Q)yourself to the priest, and (R)make an offering for your cleansing, as Moses commanded, (S)for a proof to them.” 15 (T)But now even more the report about him went abroad, and great crowds gathered to hear him and to be healed of their infirmities. 16 But (U)he would withdraw to desolate places and (V)pray.
Jesus Heals a Paralytic
17 On one of those days, as he was teaching, Pharisees and (W)teachers of the law were sitting there, who had come from every village of Galilee and Judea and from Jerusalem. And (X)the power of the Lord was with him to heal.[d] 18 (Y)And behold, some men were bringing (Z)on a bed a man who was paralyzed, and they were seeking to bring him in and lay him before Jesus, 19 but finding no way to bring him in, because of the crowd, they went up on (AA)the roof and let him down with his bed (AB)through the tiles into the midst before Jesus. 20 And (AC)when he saw their faith, he said, “Man, (AD)your sins are forgiven you.” 21 And the scribes and the Pharisees began to question, saying, “Who is this who speaks (AE)blasphemies? (AF)Who can forgive sins but God alone?” 22 When Jesus (AG)perceived their thoughts, he answered them, “Why do you question in your hearts? 23 Which is easier, to say, ‘Your sins are forgiven you,’ or to say, ‘Rise and walk’? 24 But that you may know that (AH)the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins”—he said to the man who was paralyzed—“I say to you, rise, pick up your bed and go home.” 25 And immediately he rose up before them and picked up what he had been lying on and went home, (AI)glorifying God. 26 And amazement seized them all, and they (AJ)glorified God and were filled (AK)with awe, saying, “We have seen extraordinary things today.”
Jesus Calls Levi
27 (AL)After this he went out and saw (AM)a tax collector named (AN)Levi, sitting at the tax booth. And he said to him, “Follow me.” 28 And (AO)leaving everything, he rose and followed him.
29 And Levi made him a great feast in his house, and there was a large company (AP)of tax collectors and others reclining at table with them. 30 And the Pharisees and (AQ)their scribes grumbled at his disciples, saying, (AR)“Why do you eat and drink with tax collectors and sinners?” 31 And Jesus answered them, “Those who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick. 32 (AS)I have not come to call the righteous (AT)but sinners (AU)to repentance.”
A Question About Fasting
33 And they said to him, (AV)“The disciples of John (AW)fast often and (AX)offer prayers, (AY)and so do the disciples of the Pharisees, but yours eat and drink.” 34 And Jesus said to them, (AZ)“Can you make wedding guests fast while the bridegroom is with them? 35 (BA)The days will come when the bridegroom is taken away from them, and (BB)then they will fast in those days.” 36 He also told them a parable: “No one tears a piece from a new garment and puts it on an old garment. If he does, he will tear the new, and the piece from the new will not match the old. 37 And no one puts new wine into old (BC)wineskins. If he does, the new wine will burst the skins and it will be spilled, and the skins will be destroyed. 38 But new wine must be put into fresh wineskins. 39 And no one after drinking old wine desires new, for he says, ‘The old is good.’”[e]

Pescuirea minunată
5 Pe când(A) Se afla lângă lacul Ghenezaret şi Îl îmbulzea norodul ca să audă Cuvântul lui Dumnezeu, 2 Isus a văzut două corăbii la marginea lacului; pescarii ieşiseră din ele să-şi spele mrejele. 3 S-a suit într-una din aceste corăbii, care era a lui Simon, şi l-a rugat s-o depărteze puţin de la ţărm. Apoi, a şezut jos şi învăţa pe noroade din corabie. 4 Când a încetat să vorbească, a zis lui Simon: „Depărteaz-o(B) la adânc şi aruncaţi-vă mrejele pentru pescuire”. 5 Drept răspuns, Simon I-a zis: „Învăţătorule, toată noaptea ne-am trudit şi n-am prins nimic, dar, la cuvântul Tău, voi arunca mrejele!” 6 După ce le-au aruncat, au prins o aşa de mare mulţime de peşti că începeau să li se rupă mrejele. 7 Au făcut semn tovarăşilor lor, care erau în cealaltă corabie, să vină să le ajute. Aceia au venit şi au umplut amândouă corăbiile, aşa că au început să se afunde corăbiile. 8 Când a văzut Simon Petru lucrul acesta, s-a aruncat la genunchii lui Isus şi I-a zis: „Doamne, pleacă(C) de la mine, căci sunt un om păcătos”. 9 Fiindcă îl apucase spaima pe el şi pe toţi cei ce erau cu el din pricina pescuirii pe care o făcuseră. 10 Tot aşa şi pe Iacov şi pe Ioan, fiii lui Zebedei, tovarăşii lui Simon. Atunci, Isus a zis lui Simon: „Nu te teme; de acum(D) încolo vei fi pescar de oameni”. 11 Ei au scos corăbiile la mal, au lăsat(E) totul şi au mers după El.
Vindecarea unui lepros
12 Isus(F) era într-una din cetăţi. Şi iată că un om plin de lepră, cum L-a văzut, s-a aruncat cu faţa la pământ, L-a rugat şi I-a zis: „Doamne, dacă vrei, poţi să mă curăţeşti”. 13 Isus a întins mâna, S-a atins de el şi i-a zis: „Da, voiesc, fii curăţit!”Îndată l-a lăsat lepra. 14 Apoi(G), i-a poruncit să nu spună nimănui. „Ci du-te”, i-a zis El, „de te arată preotului şi adu, pentru curăţirea ta, ce(H) a rânduit Moise, ca mărturie pentru ei”. 15 Se răspândea tot mai mult vestea despre El, şi oamenii se(I) strângeau cu grămada ca să-L asculte şi să fie vindecaţi de bolile lor. 16 Iar(J) El se ducea în locuri pustii şi Se ruga.
Vindecarea unui slăbănog
17 Într-una din zile, Isus învăţa pe noroade. Nişte farisei şi învăţători ai Legii, care veniseră din toate satele Galileii şi Iudeii şi din Ierusalim, stăteau acolo; iar puterea Domnului era cu El, ca să vindece. 18 Şi(K) iată că nişte oameni purtau într-un pat pe un slăbănog şi căutau să-l ducă înăuntru, ca să-l pună înaintea Lui. 19 Fiindcă n-aveau pe unde să-l ducă înăuntru, din pricina norodului, s-au suit pe acoperişul casei şi l-au coborât cu patul printre cărămizi, în mijlocul adunării, înaintea lui Isus. 20 Când le-a văzut credinţa, Isus a zis: „Omule, păcatele îţi sunt iertate!” 21 Cărturarii şi fariseii au(L) început să cârtească şi să zică în ei înşişi: „Cine(M) este acesta de rosteşte hule? Cine poate să ierte păcatele decât singur Dumnezeu?” 22 Isus, care le-a cunoscut gândurile, a luat cuvântul şi le-a zis: „Pentru ce cârtiţi în inimile voastre? 23 Ce este mai lesne: a zice: ‘Păcatele îţi sunt iertate’ sau a zice: ‘Scoală-te şi umblă?’ 24 Dar, ca să ştiţi că Fiul omului are putere pe pământ să ierte păcatele: ţie îţi poruncesc”, a zis El slăbănogului, „scoală-te, ridică-ţi patul şi du-te acasă.” 25 Şi numaidecât, slăbănogul s-a sculat în faţa lor, a ridicat patul pe care zăcea şi s-a dus acasă, slăvind pe Dumnezeu. 26 Toţi au rămas uimiţi şi slăveau pe Dumnezeu; plini de frică ziceau: „Azi am văzut lucruri nemaipomenite”.
Chemarea lui Levi
27 După(N) aceea, Isus a ieşit afară şi a văzut pe un vameş, numit Levi, şezând la vamă. Şi i-a zis: „Vino după Mine!” 28 Vameşul a lăsat totul, s-a sculat şi a mers după El. 29 Levi I-a făcut(O) un ospăţ mare la el în casă, şi o mulţime de vameşi şi de alţi oaspeţi şedeau la masă cu ei. 30 Fariseii şi cărturarii cârteau şi ziceau ucenicilor Lui: „Pentru ce mâncaţi şi beţi împreună cu vameşii şi cu păcătoşii?” 31 Isus a luat cuvântul şi le-a zis: „Nu cei sănătoşi au trebuinţă de doctor, ci cei bolnavi. 32 N-am(P) venit să chem la pocăinţă pe cei neprihăniţi, ci pe cei păcătoşi.”
Întrebarea despre post
33 Ei I-au zis: „Ucenicii(Q) lui Ioan, ca şi ai fariseilor, postesc des şi fac rugăciuni, pe când ai Tăi mănâncă şi beau”. 34 El le-a răspuns: „Oare puteţi face pe nuntaşi să postească în timpul când mirele este cu ei? 35 Vor veni zile când va fi luat mirele de la ei; atunci vor posti în acele zile.” 36 Le-a spus(R) şi o pildă: „Nimeni nu rupe dintr-o haină nouă un petic ca să-l pună la o haină veche; altminteri, rupe şi haina cea nouă şi nici peticul luat de la ea nu se potriveşte la cea veche. 37 Şi nimeni nu pune vin nou în burdufuri vechi; altminteri, vinul cel nou sparge burdufurile, se varsă, şi burdufurile se prăpădesc; 38 ci vinul nou trebuie pus în burdufuri noi şi amândouă se păstrează. 39 Şi nimeni, după ce a băut vin vechi, nu voieşte vin nou, căci zice: ‘Este mai bun cel vechi’ ”.

La pesca milagrosa(A)
5 En cierta ocasión, Jesús estaba junto al lago de Genesaret y el gentío se agolpaba sobre él para oír la palabra de Dios. 2 Jesús vio que cerca de la orilla del lago estaban dos barcas, y que los pescadores habían bajado de ellas para lavar sus redes. 3 Jesús entró en una de aquellas barcas, la cual era de Simón, y le pidió que la apartara un poco de la orilla; luego se sentó en la barca, y desde allí enseñaba a la multitud.(B) 4 Cuando terminó de hablar, le dijo a Simón: «Lleva la barca hacia la parte honda del lago, y echen allí sus redes para pescar.» 5 Simón le dijo: «Maestro, toda la noche hemos estado trabajando, y no hemos pescado nada;(C) pero ya que tú me lo pides, echaré la red.» 6 Así lo hicieron, y fue tal la cantidad de peces que atraparon,(D) que la red se rompía. 7 Entonces hicieron señas a los compañeros que estaban en la otra barca, para que vinieran a ayudarlos. Cuando aquellos llegaron, llenaron ambas barcas de tal manera, que poco faltaba para que se hundieran. 8 Cuando Simón Pedro vio esto, cayó de rodillas ante Jesús y le dijo: «Señor, ¡apártate de mí, porque soy un pecador!» 9 Y es que tanto él como todos sus compañeros estaban pasmados por la pesca que habían hecho. 10 También estaban sorprendidos Jacobo y Juan, los hijos de Zebedeo, que eran compañeros de Simón. Pero Jesús le dijo a Simón: «No temas, que desde ahora serás pescador de hombres.» 11 Llevaron entonces las barcas a tierra, y lo dejaron todo para seguir a Jesús.
Jesús sana a un leproso(E)
12 En otra ocasión, mientras Jesús estaba en una de las ciudades, se presentó un hombre lleno de lepra, quien al ver a Jesús se arrodilló y, rostro en tierra, le rogaba: «Señor, si quieres, puedes limpiarme.» 13 Entonces Jesús extendió la mano, lo tocó y le dijo: «Quiero. Ya has quedado limpio.» Y al instante se le quitó la lepra. 14 Jesús le ordenó: «No se lo cuentes a nadie. Sólo ve y preséntate ante el sacerdote, y ofrece por tu purificación lo que ordenó Moisés,(F) para que les sirva de testimonio.» 15 Pero su fama seguía extendiéndose, y mucha gente se reunía para escucharlo y para que los sanara de sus enfermedades; 16 pero Jesús se retiraba a lugares apartados para orar.
Jesús sana a un paralítico(G)
17 Un día, mientras Jesús enseñaba, estaban sentados los fariseos y doctores de la ley que habían venido de todas las aldeas de Galilea, y de Judea y Jerusalén. El poder del Señor estaba con Jesús para sanar. 18 En ese momento llegaron unos hombres que traían en una camilla a un paralítico. Querían llevarlo adentro y ponerlo delante de Jesús, 19 pero como a causa de la multitud no hallaron la manera de hacerlo, se subieron a la azotea y, por el tejado, bajaron al paralítico en la camilla, hasta ponerlo en medio de la gente y delante de Jesús. 20 Al ver Jesús la fe de ellos, le dijo al paralítico: «Buen hombre, tus pecados te son perdonados.» 21 Los escribas y los fariseos comenzaron a murmurar, y decían: «¿Quién es éste, que profiere blasfemias? ¿Quién puede perdonar pecados? ¡Nadie sino Dios!» 22 Jesús, que conocía sus pensamientos, les dijo: «¿Por qué cavilan en su corazón? 23 ¿Qué es más fácil? ¿Que le diga al paralítico: “Tus pecados te son perdonados”, o que le diga: “Levántate y anda”? 24 Pues para que ustedes sepan que el Hijo del Hombre tiene autoridad en la tierra para perdonar pecados, éste le dice al paralítico: “Levántate, toma tu camilla, y vete a tu casa.”» 25 Al instante, aquel hombre se levantó en presencia de ellos, tomó la camilla en la que había estado acostado, y se fue a su casa alabando a Dios. 26 Todos estaban admirados y alababan a Dios, y llenos de temor decían: «¡Hoy hemos visto maravillas!»
Llamamiento de Leví(H)
27 Después de esto, Jesús salió y vio a un cobrador de impuestos llamado Leví, que estaba sentado donde se cobraban los impuestos. Le dijo: «Sígueme.» 28 Leví se levantó y, dejándolo todo, lo siguió.
29 Más tarde, Leví ofreció un gran banquete en su casa, en honor de Jesús. Sentados a la mesa con ellos estaban muchos cobradores de impuestos y otras personas. 30 Pero los escribas y los fariseos murmuraban contra los discípulos de Jesús, y les dijeron: «¿Por qué ustedes comen y beben con cobradores de impuestos y pecadores?»(I) 31 Jesús les respondió: «Los que están sanos no necesitan de un médico, sino los enfermos. 32 Yo no he venido a llamar al arrepentimiento a los justos, sino a los pecadores.»
La pregunta sobre el ayuno(J)
33 Entonces ellos le dijeron: «¿Por qué los discípulos de Juan y de los fariseos ayunan muchas veces, y hacen oraciones, mientras que los tuyos comen y beben?» 34 Jesús les dijo: «¿Acaso ustedes pueden hacer que ayunen los invitados a una boda, mientras el novio está con ellos? 35 Llegará el día en que el novio ya no estará con ellos. Entonces sí, ese día, ayunarán.» 36 También les contó una parábola: «Nadie corta un retazo de un vestido nuevo para remendar un vestido viejo. Si lo hace, no solamente arruinará el vestido nuevo, sino que el remiendo no quedará bien en el vestido viejo. 37 Ni tampoco se echa vino nuevo en odres viejos, porque el vino nuevo hará que se revienten los odres; entonces el vino se derramará, y los odres se echarán a perder. 38 El vino nuevo debe echarse en odres nuevos. Así, tanto el vino como los odres se conservan. 39 Y nadie que haya bebido el vino añejo, quiere beber el nuevo, porque dice: “El vino añejo es mejor.”»
