Luke 7

1 After He finished all His sayings in the hearing of the people, He entered into Capernaum. 2 And a certain centurion’s servant, who was dear to him, being ill, was about to die. 3 And, having heard about Jesus, he sent to Him elders of the Jews, asking Him, that, having come, He would thoroughly save his servant. 4 And they, coming to Jesus, were earnestly beseeching Him, saying, “He is worthy for whom Thou shalt do this; 5 for he loves our nation, and he built the synagogue for us." 6 And Jesus was going with them. And now, when He was not far distant from the house, the centurion sent friends, saying to Him, “Lord, trouble not Thyself; for I am not worthy that Thou shouldest come under my roof. 7 Wherefore, neither thought I myself worthy to come to Thee; but speak with a word, and let my boy be healed; 8 for I also am a man set under authority, having soldiers under myself; and I say to this one, ‘Go,’ and he goes; and to another, ‘Come,’ and he comes; and to my servant, ‘Do this,’ and he does ." 9 And, hearing these things, Jesus marvelled at him; and, turning, He said to the multitude following Him, 10 And those sent, having returned to the house, found the servant well. 11 And it came to pass soon afterwards that He went to a city called Nain; and there were going with Him His disciples, and a large multitude. 12 And, as He came near to the gate of the city, behold, also there was being carried out one dead, the only son of his mother, and she was a widow; and a large crowd of the city was with her. 13 And, seeing her, the Lord was moved with compassion towards her, and said to her, 14 And, going forward, He touched the bier; and those bearing stood still; and He said, 15 And the dead sat up, and began to speak. And He gave him to his mother. 16 And fear seized on all; and they were glorifying God, saying, “A great prophet was raised up among us,” and “God did visit His people." 17 And this report concerning Him went forth in all Judaea, and in all the surrounding country. 18 And the disciples of John reported to him concerning all these things. 19 And, calling to him two of his disciples, John sent to the Lord, saying, “Art Thou the Coming One, or are we to expect another?" 20 And, coming near to Him, the men said, “John, the Immerser, sent us to Thee, saying, ‘Art Thou the Coming One, or are we to expect another?’" 21 In that hour He cured many of diseases, and plagues, and evil spirits; and to many blind He bestowed sight. 22 And, answering, He said to them, blind receive sight, lame walk, lepers are cleansed, and deaf hear, dead are raised, and poor have the Gospel proclaimed to them.} 24 And, the messengers of John having gone away, He began to say to the multitudes concerning John, 25 in splendid apparel, and living in luxury, are in kingly courts!} 29 And all the people, having heard, and the tax-collectors, justified God, having been immersed with the immersion of John. 30 But the Pharisees and the lawyers rejected the counsel of God as to themselves, not having been immersed by him. 36 And one of the Pharisees was asking Him to eat with him; and, having entered into the Pharisee’s house, He reclined . 37 And, behold, a woman who was in the city, a sinner; and, learning that He was reclining in the house of the Pharisee, having provided an alabaster cruse of perfume; 38 and standing behind at His feet weeping, she began to wet His feet with her tears, and wiped off with the hair of her head; and she kept kissing His feet, and anointing with the perfume. 39 But, seeing it, the Pharisee who invited Him, spake in himself, saying, “This Man, if He were a prophet, would know who and what sort of woman this is that is touching Him, because she is a sinner." 40 And Jesus, answering, said to him, And he says, “Teacher, say ." 42 more?”} 43 Simon, answering, said, “He, I suppose, to whom he forgave the more.” And He said to him, 44 And, turning to the woman, He said to Simon, wet My feet with tears, and wiped with her hair.} 47 , to whom little is forgiven, loves little.”} 48 And He said to her, 49 And those reclining with Him began to say in themselves, “Who is This That even forgiveth sins!" 50 And He said to the woman,
