1After he had ended all his sayings in the ears of the people, he entered into Capernaum. 2And a certain captain's slave, who was dear to him, was sick and at the point of death. 3And when he heard concerning Jesus, he sent to him elders of the Jews, asking him that he would come and save his slave. 4And they, when they came to Jesus, implored him earnestly, saying, He is worthy that you should do this for him; 5for he loves our nation, and himself built us our synagogue. 6And Jesus went with them. And when he was now not far from the house, the captain sent friends, saying to him, Lord, don't trouble yourself; for I am not worthy that you should come under my roof: 7therefore neither did I think myself worthy to come to you: but say the word, and let my [young] slave be healed. 8For I also am a man set under authority, having under myself soldiers: and I say to this one, Go, and he goes; and to another, Come, and he comes; and to my slave, Do this, and he does it. 9And when Jesus heard these things, he marveled at him, and turned and said to the multitude that followed him, I say to you{+}, I haven't found so great faith, no, not in Israel. 10And those who were sent, returning to the house, found the slave whole. 11And it came to pass soon afterward, that he went to a city called Nain; and his disciples went with him, and a great multitude. 12Now when he drew near to the gate of the city, look, there was carried out one who was dead, the only begotten son of his mother, and she was a widow: and many people of the city were with her. 13And when the Lord saw her, he had compassion on her, and said to her, Do not weep. 14And he came near and touched the bier: and the bearers stood still. And he said, Young man, I say to you, Arise. 15And he who was dead sat up, and began to speak. And he gave him to his mother. 16And fear took hold on all: and they glorified God, saying, A great prophet has arisen among us: and, God has visited his people. 17And this report went forth concerning him in the whole of Judea, and all the surrounding region. 18And the disciples of John told him of all these things. And John calling to him two of his disciples, 19sent them to the Lord, saying, Are you he who comes, or do we look for another? 20And when the men had come to him, they said, John the Baptist has sent us to you, saying, Are you he who comes, or do we look for another? 21In that hour he cured many of diseases and plagues and evil spirits; and on many who were blind he bestowed sight. 22And he answered and said to them, Go and tell John the things which you{+} have seen and heard; the blind receive their sight, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, and the deaf hear, the dead are raised up, the poor have good news preached to them. 23And blessed is he, whoever will find no occasion of stumbling in me. 24And when the messengers of John were departed, he began to say to the multitudes concerning John, What did you{+} go out into the wilderness to look at? A reed shaken with the wind? 25But what did you{+} go out to see? A man clothed in soft raiment? Look, those who are gorgeously appareled, and live delicately, are in kings' courts. 26But what did you{+} go out to see? A prophet? Yes, I say to you{+}, and much more than a prophet. 27This is he of whom it is written, Look, I send my messenger before your face, Who will prepare your way before you. 28I say to you{+}, Among those who are born of women there is none greater than John: yet he who is least in the kingdom of God is greater than he. 29And all the people when they heard, and the publicans, justified God, being baptized with the baptism of John. 30But the Pharisees and the lawyers rejected for themselves the counsel of God, not being baptized of him. 31To what then shall I liken the men of this generation, and to what are they like? 32They are like children who sit in the marketplace, and call one to another; who say, We piped to you{+}, and you{+} did not dance; we wailed, and you{+} did not weep. 33For John the Baptist has come eating no bread nor drinking wine; and you{+} say, He has a demon. 34The Son of Man has come eating and drinking; and you{+} say, Look, a gluttonous man, and a winebibber, a friend of publicans and sinners! 35And wisdom is acknowledged as right by all her children. 36And one of the Pharisees desired him that he would eat with him. And he entered into the Pharisee's house, and sat down to meat. 37And look, a woman who was in the city, a sinner; and when she knew that he was sitting at meat in the Pharisee's house, she brought an alabaster cruse of ointment, 38and standing behind at his feet, weeping, she began to wet his feet with her tears, and wiped them with the hair of her head, and kissed his feet, and anointed them with the ointment. 39Now when the Pharisee that had invited him saw it, he spoke to himself, saying, This man, if he were a prophet, would have perceived who and what manner of woman this is that touches him, that she's a sinner. 40And Jesus answering said to him, Simon, I have somewhat to say to you. And he says, Teacher, say on. 41A certain lender had two debtors: the one owed $50,000, and the other $5,000. 42When they did not have [that with which] to pay, he forgave them both. Which of them therefore will love him most? 43Simon answered and said, He, I suppose, to whom he forgave the most. And he said to him, You have rightly judged. 44And turning to the woman, he said to Simon, Do you see this woman? I entered into your house, you gave me no water for my feet: but she has wet my feet with her tears, and wiped them with her hair. 45You gave me no kiss: but she, since the time I came in, has not ceased to kiss my feet. 46You did not anoint my head with oil: but she has anointed my feet with ointment. 47Therefore I say to you, Her sins, which are many, are forgiven; for she loved much: but to whom little is forgiven, [the same] loves little. 48And he said to her, Your sins are forgiven. 49And those who sat to eat with him began to say to themselves, Who is this that even forgives sins? 50And he said to the woman, Your faith has saved you; go in peace.
