Jesus Heals a Centurion's Servant
|
|
|
|
##### Chapter 7
|
|
###### 1 Now when He concluded all His sayings in the hearing of the people, He entered Capernaum.
|
|
###### 2 And a certain centurion's servant, who was dear to him, was sick and ready to die.
|
|
###### 3 So when he heard about Jesus, he sent elders of the Jews to Him, pleading with Him to come and heal his servant.
|
|
###### 4 And when they came to Jesus, they begged Him earnestly, saying that the one for whom He should do this was deserving,
|
|
###### 5 "for he loves our nation, and has built us a synagogue."
|
|
|
|
###### 6 Then Jesus went with them. And when He was already not far from the house, the centurion sent friends to Him, saying to Him, "Lord, do not trouble Yourself, for I am not worthy that You should enter under my roof.
|
|
###### 7 Therefore I did not even think myself worthy to come to You. But say the word, and my servant will be healed.
|
|
###### 8 For I also am a man placed under authority, having soldiers under me. And I say to one, 'Go,' and he goes; and to another, 'Come,' and he comes; and to my servant, 'Do this,' and he does _it._"
|
|
|
|
###### 9 When Jesus heard these things, He marveled at him, and turned around and said to the crowd that followed Him, **"I say to you, I have not found such great faith, not even in Israel!"**
|
|
###### 10 And those who were sent, returning to the house, found the servant well who had been sick.Jesus Raises the Son of the Widow of Nain
|
|
|
|
###### 11 Now it happened, the day after, _that_ He went into a city called Nain; and many of His disciples went with Him, and a large crowd.
|
|
###### 12 And when He came near the gate of the city, behold, a dead man was being carried out, the only son of his mother; and she was a widow. And a large crowd from the city was with her.
|
|
###### 13 When the Lord saw her, He had compassion on her and said to her, **"Do not weep."**
|
|
###### 14 Then He came and touched the open coffin, and those who carried _him_ stood still. And He said, **"Young man, I say to you,** **arise."**
|
|
###### 15 So he who was dead sat up and began to speak. And He presented him to his mother.
|
|
|
|
###### 16 Then fear came upon all, and they glorified God, saying, "A great prophet has risen up among us"; and, "God has visited His people."
|
|
###### 17 And this report about Him went throughout all Judea and all the surrounding region.John the Baptist Sends Messengers to Jesus
|
|
|
|
###### 18 Then the disciples of John reported to him concerning all these things.
|
|
###### 19 And John, calling two of his disciples to _him,_ sent _them_ to Jesus, saying, "Are You the Coming One, or do we look for another?"
|
|
|
|
###### 20 When the men had come to Him, they said, "John the Baptist has sent us to You, saying, 'Are You the Coming One, or do we look for another?' "
|
|
###### 21 And that very hour He cured many of infirmities, afflictions, and evil spirits; and to many blind He gave sight.
|
|
|
|
###### 22 Jesus answered and said to them, **"Go and tell John the things you have seen and heard:** **that _the_ blind** **see, _the_ lame** **walk, _the_ lepers are** **cleansed, _the_ deaf** **hear, _the_ dead are raised,** **_the_ poor have the gospel preached to them.**
|
|
###### 23 **And blessed is _he_ who is not** **offended because of Me."**
|
|
|
|
###### 24 When the messengers of John had departed, He began to speak to the multitudes concerning John: **"What did you go out into the wilderness to see? A reed shaken by the wind?**
|
|
###### 25 **But what did you go out to see? A man clothed in soft garments? Indeed those who are gorgeously appareled and live in luxury are in kings' courts.**
|
|
###### 26 **But what did you go out to see? A prophet? Yes, I say to you, and more than a prophet.**
|
|
###### 27 **This is _he_ of whom it is written:**
|
|
**'Behold, I send My messenger before Your face,**
|
|
**Who will prepare Your way before You.'**
|
|
|
|
###### 28 **For I say to you, among those born of women there is** **not a** **greater prophet than John the Baptist; but he who is least in the kingdom of God is greater than he."**
|
|
|
|
###### 29 And when all the people heard _Him,_ even the tax collectors justified God, having been baptized with the baptism of John.
|
|
###### 30 But the Pharisees and lawyers rejected the will of God for themselves, not having been baptized by him.
|
|
|
|
###### 31 And the Lord said, **"To what then shall I liken the men of this generation, and what are they like?**
|
|
###### 32 **They are like children sitting in the marketplace and calling to one another, saying:**
|
|
**'We played the flute for you,**
|
|
**And you did not dance;**
|
|
**We mourned to you,**
|
|
**And you did not weep.'**
|
|
|
|
###### 33 **For** **John the Baptist came** **neither eating bread nor drinking wine, and you say, 'He has a demon.'**
|
|
###### 34 **The Son of Man has come** **eating and drinking, and you say, 'Look, a glutton and a** **winebibber, a friend of tax collectors and sinners!'**
|
|
###### 35 **But wisdom is justified by all her children."**A Sinful Woman Forgiven
|
|
|
|
###### 36 Then one of the Pharisees asked Him to eat with him. And He went to the Pharisee's house, and sat down to eat.
|
|
###### 37 And behold, a woman in the city who was a sinner, when she knew that _Jesus_ sat at the table in the Pharisee's house, brought an alabaster flask of fragrant oil,
|
|
###### 38 and stood at His feet behind _Him_ weeping; and she began to wash His feet with her tears, and wiped _them_ with the hair of her head; and she kissed His feet and anointed _them_ with the fragrant oil.
|
|
###### 39 Now when the Pharisee who had invited Him saw _this,_ he spoke to himself, saying, "This Man, if He were a prophet, would know who and what manner of woman _this is_ who is touching Him, for she is a sinner."
|
|
|
|
###### 40 And Jesus answered and said to him, **"Simon, I have something to say to you."**
|
|
So he said, "Teacher, say it."
|
|
|
|
###### 41 **"There was a certain creditor who had two debtors. One owed five hundred** **denarii, and the other fifty.**
|
|
###### 42 **And when they had nothing with which to repay, he freely forgave them both. Tell Me, therefore, which of them will love him more?"**
|
|
|
|
###### 43 Simon answered and said, "I suppose the _one_ whom he forgave more."
|
|
And He said to him, **"You have rightly judged."**
|
|
###### 44 Then He turned to the woman and said to Simon, **"Do you see this woman? I entered your house; you gave Me no** **water for My feet, but she has washed My feet with her tears and wiped _them_ with the hair of her head.**
|
|
###### 45 **You gave Me no** **kiss, but this woman has not ceased to kiss My feet since the time I came in.**
|
|
###### 46 **You did not anoint My head with oil, but this woman has anointed My feet with fragrant oil.**
|
|
###### 47 **Therefore 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."**
|
|
|
|
###### 48 Then He said to her, **"Your sins are forgiven."**
|
|
|
|
###### 49 And those who sat at the table with Him began to say to themselves, "Who is this who even forgives sins?"
|
|
|
|
###### 50 Then He said to the woman, **"Your faith has saved you. Go in peace."**
