| 11 And it came to pass the day
after, that he went into a city called
Nain: and many of his disciples went
with him, and much people. | |
| 12 Now, when he came nigh to the
gate of the city, behold, there was a
dead man carried out, the only son of
his mother, and she was a widow:
and much people of the city was with
her. | |
| 13 And when the Lord saw her,
he had compassion on her, and said
unto her, Weep not. | |
| 14 And he came and touched the
bier: and they that bare him stood
still. And he said, Young man, I say
unto thee, Arise. | |
| 15 And he that was dead sat up,
and began to speak: and he delivered
him to his mother. | |
| 16 And there came a fear on all:
and they glorified God, saying, That
a great prophet is risen up among us;
and, That God hath visited his people. | |
| 17 And this rumour of him went
forth throughout all Judea, and
throughout all the region round about. | |
| Matthew. | Luke |
| CH. XI. 2-19. | |
| 2 Now when John had heard in the
prison the works of Christ, he sent
two of his disciples, | 18 And the disciples of John
shewed him of all these things. |
| 3 And said unto him. Art thou he
that should come,[147] or do we look for
another? | 19 And John calling unto him two
of his disciples, sent them to Jesus,
saying, Art thou he that should come?
or look we for another? |
| 20 When the men were come unto
him, they said, John Baptist hath
sent us unto thee, saying, Art thou he
that should come? or look we for
another? |
| 21 And in that same hour he cured
many of their infirmities, and plagues,
and of evil spirits; and unto many
that were blind he gave sight. |
| 4 Jesus answered and said unto
them, Go and shew John again those
things which ye do hear and see: | 22 Then Jesus answering, said unto
them, Go your way, and tell John
what things ye have seen and heard;
how that the blind see, the lame walk,
the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear,
the dead are raised, to the poor the
gospel is preached. |
| 5 The blind receive their sight,
and the lame walk, the lepers are
cleansed, and the deaf hear, the dead
are raised up, and the poor have the
gospel preached to them.[148] | 23 And blessed is he, whosoever
shall not be offended in me. |
| 6 And blessed is he whosoever shall
not be offended in me. | |
| 7 And as they departed, Jesus began
to say unto the multitudes concerning
John, What went ye out into the
wilderness to see? A reed shaken
with the wind? | 24 And when the messengers of
John were departed, he began to speak
unto the people concerning John,
What went ye out into the wilderness
for to see? A reed shaken with the
wind? |
| 8 But what went ye out for to see?
A man clothed in soft raiment? Behold,
they that wear soft clothing are
in kings' houses. | 25 But what went ye out for to see?
A man clothed in soft raiment? Behold,
they which are gorgeously apparelled,
and live delicately, are in
kings' courts. |
| 9 But what went ye out for to see?
A prophet? yea, I say unto you, and
more than a prophet. | 26 But what went ye out for to see?
A prophet? Yea, I say unto you, and
much more than a prophet. |
| 10 For this is he of whom it is written,[149]
Behold, I send my messenger
before thy face, which shall prepare
thy way before thee. | 27 This is he, of whom it is written,
Behold, I send my messenger before
thy face, which shall prepare thy way
before thee. |
| 11 Verily, I say unto you, Among
them that are born of women, there
hath not risen a greater than John the
Baptist: notwithstanding, he that is
least in the kingdom of heaven, is
greater than he. | 28 For I say unto you, Among
those that are born of women, there
is not a greater prophet than John the
Baptist: but he that is least in the
kingdom of God, is greater than he. |
| 29 And all the people that heard
him, and the publicans, justified God,
being baptized with the baptism of
John. |
| 30 But the Pharisees and lawyers
rejected the council of God against
themselves, being not baptized of him. |
| 12 And from the days of John the
Baptist, until now, the kingdom of
heaven suffereth violence, and the
violent take it by force. | |
| 13 For all the prophets and the law
prophesied until John. | |
| 14 And if ye will receive it, this is
Elias which was for to come.[150] | |
| 15 He that hath ears to hear, let
him hear. | |
| 16 But whereunto shall I liken this
generation? It is like unto children
sitting in the markets, and calling
unto their fellows. | 31 And the Lord said, Whereunto
then shall I liken the men of this generation?
and to what are they like? |
| 32 They are like unto children sitting
in the market-place, and calling
one to another, and saying, We have
piped unto you, and ye have not
danced; we have mourned to you, and
ye have not wept. |
| 17 And saying, We have piped
unto you, and ye have not danced;
we have mourned unto you, and ye
have not lamented. | |
| 18 For John came neither eating
nor drinking, and they say, He hath a
devil. | 33 For John the Baptist came neither
eating bread, nor drinking wine;
and ye say, He hath a devil. |
| 19 The Son of man came eating
and drinking, and they say, Behold a
man gluttonous, and a wine-bibber, a
friend of publicans and sinners. But
Wisdom is justified of her children. | 34 The Son of man is come eating
and drinking; and ye say, Behold a
gluttonous man, and a wine-bibber, a
friend of publicans and sinners! |
| 35 But Wisdom is justified of all
her children. |
| Matthew. | |
| CH. XI. 20-30. | |
| 20 Then began he to upbraid the
cities wherein most of his mighty
works were done, because they repented
not. | |
| 21 Wo unto thee, Chorazin! wo
unto thee, Bethsaida! for if the
mighty works which were done in you
had been done in Tyre and Sidon,
they would have repented long ago in
sackcloth and ashes. | |
| 22 But I say unto you, It shall
be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon
at the day of judgment, than for
you. | |
| 23 And thou, Capernaum, which
art exalted unto heaven, shalt be
brought down to hell: for if the
mighty works which have been done
in thee, had been done in Sodom, it
would have remained until this day. | |
| 24 But I say unto you, That it
shall be more tolerable for the land of
Sodom, in the day of judgment, than
for thee. | |
| 25 At that time Jesus answered
and said, I thank thee, O Father,
Lord of heaven and earth, because
thou hast hid these things from the
wise and prudent, and hast revealed
them unto babes. | |
| 26 Even so, Father, for so it
seemed good in thy sight. | |
| 27 All things are delivered unto me
of my Father; and no man knoweth
the Son, but the Father; neither
knoweth any man the Father, save the
Son, and he to whomsoever the Son
will reveal him. | |
| 26 Come unto me, all ye that labour,
and are heavy laden, and I will give
you rest. | |
| 29 Take my yoke upon you, and
learn of me: for I am meek and lowly
in heart; and ye shall find rest unto
your souls. | |
| 30 For my yoke is easy, and my
burden is light. | |
| Luke. | |
| CH. VII. 36-50. | |
| 36 And one of the Pharisees desired
him that he would eat with him.
And he went into the Pharisee's house,
and sat down to meat. | |
| 37 And behold, a woman in the city,
which was a sinner, when she knew
that Jesus sat at meat in the Pharisee's
house, brought an alabaster-box of
ointment, | |
| 38 And stood at his feet behind
him weeping, and began to wash his
feet with tears, and did wipe them
with the hairs of her head, and kissed
his feet, and anointed them with the
ointment. | |
| 39 Now, when the Pharisee which
had bidden him, saw it, he spake
within himself, saying, This man, if
he were a prophet, would have known
who, and what manner of woman this
is that toucheth him: for she is a
sinner. | |
| 40 And Jesus answering, said unto
him, Simon, I have somewhat to say
unto thee. And he saith, Master, say on. | |
| 41 There was a certain creditor,
which had two debtors: the one owed
five hundred pence, and the other fifty. | |
| 42 And when they had nothing to
pay, he frankly forgave them both.
Tell me, therefore, which of them will
love him most? | |
| 43 Simon answered and said, I suppose
that he, to whom he forgave most.
And he said unto him, Thou hast
rightly judged. | |
| 44 And he turned to the woman,
and said unto Simon, Seest thou this
woman? I entered into thine house,
thou gavest me no water for my feet:
but she hath washed my feet with
tears, and wiped them with the hairs
of her head. | |
| 45 Thou gavest me no kiss: but
this woman, since the time I came in,
hath not ceased to kiss my feet. | |
| 46 My head with oil thou didst not
anoint: but this woman hath anointed
my feet with ointment. | |
| 47 Wherefore I say unto thee, Her
sins which are many, are forgiven;
for she loved much: but to whom
little is forgiven, the same loveth
little. | |
| 48 And he said unto her, Thy sins
are forgiven. | |
| 49 And they that sat at meat with
him, began to say within themselves,
Who is this that forgiveth sins also? | |
| 50 And he said to the woman, Thy
faith hath saved thee; go in peace. | |
