vCNT
1 When He had completed all of His sayings for the ears of the people, He went into Kapharnaoum.
2 And upon a certain centurion's having a sickly servant who was about to die, who was dear to him,
3 and having heard about Yahshua, he sent to Him elders of the Judaeans, asking Him that coming He may preserve his servant.
4 And they coming near to Yahshua exhorted Him earnestly, saying that "Worthy is he for whom You may grant this.
5 For he loves our nation and he has built the assembly hall for us."
6 So Yahshua went with them. And already He being not far from the house, the centurion sent friends saying to Him "Prince, You must not trouble Yourself, for I am not worthy that You should come under my roof!
7 Wherefore neither am I myself worthy to come to You, but speak in a word, and let my servant be healed.
8 For I also am a man appointed by 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 servant 'do this', and he does it."
9 And hearing these things, Yahshua admiring him and turning to the crowd following Him said: "I say to you, not even in Israel have I found such faith!"
10 And those who were sent, returning to the house found the servant healthy.
11 And it came to pass thereafter that He went to a city called Naïn, and His students and a great crowd went with Him.
12 And as He neared the gate of the city, then behold: a dead man being carried out, the best beloved son of his mother, and she was a widow. And a considerable crowd from the city was with her.
13 And seeing her the Prince was deeply moved by her and said to her: "Do not weep!"
14 And going forth He grasped the coffin, and those bearing it stopped, and He said "Young man, I say to you, arise!"
15 Then the corpse sat up and began to speak, and He gave him to his mother.
16 And fear seized all and they honored Yahweh saying that "a great prophet has arisen among us" and that "Yahweh has visited His people."
17 And this account went out in the whole of Judaea and all the surrounding area concerning Him.
18 And his students reported to Iohannes concerning all of these things, and summoning a certain two of his students Iohannes
19 sent to the Prince, saying "Are You He who is coming, or do we expect another?"
20 Then coming to Him the men said: "Iohannes the Baptist sent us to You, saying: 'Are you He who is coming, or do we expect another?'"
21 And at that hour He had healed many from diseases and plagues and wicked spirits and many blind were granted to see.
22 And replying He said to them: "Going, report to Iohannes the things which you have seen and you have heard: The blind have their sight restored and the lame walk about, lepers are cleansed and the deaf hear, the dead are raised, the poor are brought good news,
23 and blessed is he who is not offended by Me!"
24 And the messengers of Iohannes departing, He began to speak to the crowd concerning Iohannes: "Why do you go out into the desert? To behold a reed being shaken by the wind?
25 Rather why do you go out? To see a man clothed in soft garments? Behold, those who are in splendid and luxurious garments are in the palaces!
26 But why do you go out? To see a prophet? Yea, I say to you, and greater than a prophet!
27 This is concerning whom it was written: 'Behold, I shall send My messenger before Your face, who shall prepare Your way before You.'
28 I say to you, no one born of women is greater than Iohannes, but he who is least in the Kingdom of Yahweh is greater than he!"
29 And all the people heard, and the tax-collectors deemed Yahweh just, being immersed in the immersion of Iohannes.
30 But the Pharisees and the lawyers rejected the counsel of Yahweh in regard to themselves, not being immersed by him.
31 "So to what do I compare the men of this race? And what are they like?
32 They are like boys sitting in the market place and calling to one another things which say 'We piped for you and you did not dance. We sang dirges and you did not weep.'
33 For Iohannes the Baptist came not eating wheat-bread nor drinking wine and you say 'He has a demon.'
34 The Son of Man came eating and drinking, and you say 'Behold the man is a glutton and a winedrinker, a friend of tax-collectors and wrongdoers!'
35 And Wisdom is justified by all of her children. "
36 Then one of the Pharisees had asked Him that He would eat with him. And entering into the house of the Pharisee He reclined.
37 And behold, there was a woman who was in the city, a wrongdoer, and finding out that He reclined in the house of the Pharisee, she acquired a box of ointment,
38 and standing behind by His feet weeping, with tears she began to wet His feet and wiped them off with the hair of her head, and she kissed and anointed His feet with ointment.
39 And seeing, the Pharisee who invited Him spoke to himself saying "If He were a prophet, He would know who and of what sort is the woman who touches Him, that she is a wrongdoer."
40 And replying Yahshua said to him "Simon, I have something to say to you." "Then teacher," he said, "speak!"
41 "Two men were indebted to a certain moneylender. The one owed five hundred denarii, the other fifty.
42 Upon their having nothing to repay, he forgave both. Now which of them should love him more?"
43 Answering Simon said "I suspect that to whom he forgave more." And He said to him "You have decided correctly."
44 Then turning to the woman with Simon He said "Look at this woman. I have come into your house. You did not offer water for My feet. But she with tears wet My feet and wiped them off with her hair.
45 You did not offer Me a kiss. But she from her coming in has not ceased kissing My feet.
46 You did not anoint My head with olive oil. But she with ointment has anointed My feet.
47 For that favor, I say to you, her many errors are forgiven, because she has loved much. But to whom little is forgiven, loves little."
48 Then He said to her: "Your errors are forgiven."
49 And those dining together began to speak among themselves, "Who is this who even forgives wrongdoing?"
50 Then He said to the woman: "Your faith has preserved you: go in peace."
