Lucas 5
O Livro
A chamada dos primeiros discípulos
(Mt 4.18-22; Mc 1.16-20)
5 Em certa ocasião, estando a pregar na praia do mar da Galileia, rodearam-no grandes multidões para ouvir a palavra de Deus. 2 Notando que havia dois botes vazios à beira da água, enquanto os pescadores lavavam as redes, 3 Jesus entrou num deles e pediu a Simão, o dono, que o empurrasse um pouco para o largo, para que dali pudesse falar ao povo.
4 Quando acabou de falar, Jesus disse a Simão: “Agora saiam para onde o lago é mais fundo e lancem as redes, pois apanharão muito peixe.”
5 “Senhor”, respondeu Simão, “fartámo-nos de trabalhar toda a noite sem conseguirmos apanhar nada. Mas, já que assim o dizes, vamos tentar de novo.”
6 E desta vez as redes ficaram tão cheias que começaram a rasgar-se! 7 Ao ouvirem-nos gritar pedindo ajuda, os companheiros vieram noutro bote, e em breve as duas embarcações estavam em risco de se afundarem com a carga de peixe.
8 Quando Simão Pedro percebeu o que tinha acontecido, caiu de joelhos diante de Jesus e disse: “Senhor, afasta-te de mim, porque sou tão pecador!” 9 Pois estava pasmado com a abundância de peixe, 10 tal como os companheiros e também os seus sócios, Tiago e João, filhos de Zebedeu.
Jesus disse a Simão: “Não te preocupes, porque daqui em diante serás pescador de pessoas!” 11 Eles puxaram os barcos para terra, deixaram tudo e seguiram-no.
Jesus cura um leproso
(Mt 8.2-4; Mc 1.40-44)
12 Sucedeu numa localidade, que Jesus estava a visitar, que um homem coberto de lepra, ao ver Jesus, prostou-se com o rosto no chão, rogando-lhe: “Senhor, se quiseres, podes curar-me!”
13 Jesus, estendendo a mão, tocou-lhe e disse: “Sim, quero, sê curado!” E logo a lepra o deixou. 14 Jesus então ordenou-lhe com firmeza: “Não fales com ninguém e vai apresentar-te ao sacerdote. Leva contigo a oferta que Moisés estabeleceu para a cura, para que lhes sirva de testemunho.”
15 Apesar das recomendações de Jesus, a notícia do seu poder espalhava-se ainda mais. Enormes multidões vinham para o ouvir pregar e ser curadas das suas enfermidades. 16 Muitas vezes, porém, dirigia-se para um lugar isolado, a fim de orar.
Jesus cura um paralítico
(Mt 9.2-8; Mc 2.3-12)
17 Uma vez, estava a ensinar e encontravam-se ali sentados alguns fariseus e os professores da Lei. Estes homens vinham de todas as localidades da Galileia e da Judeia, bem como de Jerusalém. E o poder curador do Senhor estava sobre Jesus. 18 De repente, chegaram umas pessoas com um paralítico deitado numa esteira, as quais tentaram abrir passagem através da multidão até junto de Jesus; 19 mas, não descobrindo por onde pudessem introduzi-lo em casa por causa da multidão, subiram ao telhado e, retirando algumas telhas, desceram o doente colocando-o em frente a Jesus. 20 Vendo a fé de que davam provas, Jesus disse ao homem: “Amigo, os teus pecados estão perdoados!”
21 Os especialistas na Lei e os fariseus começaram a dizer para si mesmos: “Mas quem imagina ele que é para se pôr a blasfemar? Só Deus pode perdoar os pecados!”
22 Jesus, percebendo o que eles estavam a pensar, perguntou: “O que estão a pensar nos vossos corações? 23 É mais fácil dizer ‘os teus pecados são perdoados’ ou ‘levanta-te e anda?’ 24 Portanto, vou provar-vos que o Filho do Homem tem autoridade para perdoar os pecados.” E voltando-se para o paralítico disse-lhe: “A ti eu digo: Levanta-te, enrola a tua esteira e vai para casa!”
25 Logo, à vista do povo, o homem pôs-se em pé, agarrou na esteira e foi para casa, dando glória a Deus. 26 Toda a gente ali, admirada, dava glória a Deus, tomada de espanto: “Hoje, realmente, vimos coisas extraordinárias!”, diziam.
A chamada de Levi (Mateus)
(Mt 9.9-13; Mc 2.14-17)
27 Mais tarde, indo a sair da vila, Jesus viu um cobrador de impostos chamado Levi, sentado no balcão de cobranças. Jesus disse-lhe: “Segue-me!” 28 Levi, deixando tudo, levantou-se e seguiu-o.
29 Passado pouco tempo, Levi deu uma festa em sua casa, sendo Jesus o convidado de honra. Foram também e sentaram-se à mesa um bom número de cobradores de impostos e outros convidados. 30 Os especialistas na Lei e os fariseus, que pertenciam ao seu grupo, queixavam-se porém, em voz baixa, aos discípulos de Jesus: “Porque comem e bebem com cobradores de impostos e outros pecadores?”
31 Em resposta, Jesus disse-lhes: “Quem precisa de médico são os doentes, não os que têm saúde! 32 Não vim chamar os justos, mas os pecadores a se arrependerem.”
A questão de jejum
(Mt 9.14-17; Mc 2.18-22)
33 Puseram ainda outra questão a Jesus: “Os discípulos de João Batista estão sempre a jejuar e a orar e os discípulos dos fariseus fazem o mesmo. Porque é que os teus comem e bebem?”
34 Jesus explicou: “Podem fazer com que os convidados do noivo jejuem, enquanto o noivo está com eles? 35 Virá o tempo em que lhes será tirado. Então, sim, jejuarão.”
36 Jesus serviu-se depois desta parábola: “Ninguém vai tirar um pedaço de tecido duma roupa nova para fazer um remendo numa peça velha; pois não só estragaria a nova, mas a velha também pareceria pior com o remendo novo. 37 E ninguém põe vinho novo em odres velhos, pois o vinho novo rebenta com eles, os odres estragam-se e o vinho perde-se. 38 O vinho novo deve ser posto em odres novos. 39 Depois de beber o vinho velho, ninguém parece querer o vinho fresco e novo, porque dizem: ‘O velho é melhor.’ ”
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]
