Luke 7:11-17

Disciples’ Literal New Testament

Jesus Raises a Woman’s Only Son From The Dead

¹¹ And it came about afterwards^[a] that He proceeded to a city being called Nain. And His disciples and a large crowd were proceeding-with Him. ¹² Now when He drew-near to the gate of the city, and behold— one having died was being carried out, an only-born son to his mother. And she was a widow. And a considerable crowd from the city was with her. ¹³ And having seen her, the Lord felt-deep-feelings [of compassion] for her. And He said to her, “Do not be weeping”. ¹⁴ And having come to it, He touched the funeral-bed. And the ones bearing it stopped. And He said, “Young-man, I say to you, arise!” ¹⁵ And the dead one sat up and began to speak. And He gave him to his mother. ¹⁶ And awe seized everyone. And they were glorifying God, saying that “A great prophet arose among us”, and that “God visited His people”. ¹⁷ And this statement concerning Him went out in all Judea and in all the surrounding-region.
