Matthew

治好瘫痪病人

1耶稣上了船，渡过海，来到自己的城里。

2有人用褥子抬着一个瘫子到耶稣跟前来。耶稣见他们的信心，就对瘫子说：「小子，放心吧！你的罪赦了。」

3有几个文士心里说：「这个人说僭妄的话了。」

4耶稣知道他们的心意，就说：「你们为什么心里怀着恶念呢？

5或说『你的罪赦了』，或说『你起来行走』，哪一样容易呢？

6但要叫你们知道，人子在地上有赦罪的权柄」；就对瘫子说：「起来！拿你的褥子回家去吧。」

7那人就起来，回家去了。

8众人看见都惊奇，就归荣耀与 神，因为他将这样的权柄赐给人。

呼召马太

9耶稣从那里往前走，看见一个人名叫马太，坐在税关上，就对他说：「你跟从我来。」他就起来跟从了耶稣。

10耶稣在屋里坐席的时候，有好些税吏和罪人来，与耶稣和他的门徒一同坐席。

11法利赛人看见，就对耶稣的门徒说：「你们的先生为什么和税吏并罪人一同吃饭呢？」

12耶稣听见，就说：「康健的人用不着医生，有病的人才用得着。

13经上说：『我喜爱怜恤，不喜爱祭祀。』这句话的意思，你们且去揣摩。我来本不是召义人，乃是召罪人。」

禁食的问题

14那时，约翰的门徒来见耶稣，说：「我们和法利赛人常常禁食，你的门徒倒不禁食，这是为什么呢？」

15耶稣对他们说：「新郎和陪伴之人同在的时候，陪伴之人岂能哀恸呢？但日子将到，新郎要离开他们，那时候他们就要禁食。

16没有人把新布补在旧衣服上；因为所补上的反带坏了那衣服，破的就更大了。

17也没有人把新酒装在旧皮袋里；若是这样，皮袋就裂开，酒漏出来，连皮袋也坏了。惟独把新酒装在新皮袋里，两样就都保全了。」

管会堂者的女儿和血漏的女人

18耶稣说这话的时候，有一个管会堂的来拜他，说：「我女儿刚才死了，求你去按手在她身上，她就必活了。」

19耶稣便起来跟着他去；门徒也跟了去。

20有一个女人，患了十二年的血漏，来到耶稣背后，摸他的衣裳 子；

21因为她心里说：「我只摸他的衣裳，就必痊愈。」

22耶稣转过来，看见她，就说：「女儿，放心！你的信救了你。」从那时候，女人就痊愈了。

23耶稣到了管会堂的家里，看见有吹手，又有许多人乱嚷，

24就说：「退去吧！这闺女不是死了，是睡着了。」他们就嗤笑他。

25众人既被撵出，耶稣就进去，拉着闺女的手，闺女便起来了。

26于是这风声传遍了那地方。

两个瞎子得医治

27耶稣从那里往前走，有两个瞎子跟着他，喊叫说：「大卫的子孙，可怜我们吧！」

28耶稣进了房子，瞎子就来到他跟前。耶稣说：「你们信我能做这事吗？」他们说：「主啊，我们信。」

29耶稣就摸他们的眼睛，说：「照着你们的信给你们成全了吧。」

30他们的眼睛就开了。耶稣切切地嘱咐他们说：「你们要小心，不可叫人知道。」

31他们出去，竟把他的名声传遍了那地方。

治好哑巴

32他们出去的时候，有人将鬼所附的一个哑巴带到耶稣跟前来。

33鬼被赶出去，哑巴就说出话来。众人都希奇，说：「在以色列中，从来没有见过这样的事。」

34法利赛人却说：「他是靠着鬼王赶鬼。」

耶稣的怜悯

35耶稣走遍各城各乡，在会堂里教训人，宣讲天国的福音，又医治各样的病症。

36他看见许多的人，就怜悯他们；因为他们困苦流离，如同羊没有牧人一般。

37于是对门徒说：「要收的庄稼多，做工的人少。

38所以，你们当求庄稼的主打发工人出去收他的庄稼。」

1And entering into a boat, he passed over the water and came into his own city.

2And behold they brought to him one sick of the palsy lying in a bed. And Jesus, seeing their faith, said to the man sick of the palsy: Be of good heart, son, thy sins are forgiven thee.

3And behold some of the scribes said within themselves: He blasphemeth.

4And Jesus seeing their thoughts, said: Why do you think evil in your hearts?

5Whether is easier, to say, Thy sins are forgiven thee: or to say, Arise, and walk?

6But that you may know that the Son of man hath power on earth to forgive sins, (then said he to the man sick of palsy,) Arise, take up thy bed, and go into thy house.

7And he arose, and went into his house.

8And the multitude seeing it, feared, and glorified God that gave such power to men.

9And when Jesus passed on from hence, he saw a man sitting in the custom house, named Matthew; and he saith to him: Follow me. And he rose up and followed him.

10And it came to pass as he was sitting at meat in the house, behold many publicans and sinners came, and sat down with Jesus and his disciples.

11And the Pharisees seeing it, said to his disciples: Why doth your master eat with publicans and sinners?

12But Jesus hearing it, said: They that are in health need not a physician, but they that are ill.

13Go then and learn what this meaneth, I will have mercy and not sacrifice. For I am not come to call the just, but sinners.

14Then came to him the disciples of John, saying: Why do we and the Pharisees fast often, but thy disciples do not fast?

15And Jesus said to them: Can the children of the bridegroom mourn, as long as the bridegroom is with them? But the days will come, when the bridegroom shall be taken away from them, and then they shall fast.

16And nobody putteth a piece of raw cloth unto an old garment. For it taketh away the fullness thereof from the garment, and there is made a greater rent.

17Neither do they put new wine into old bottles. Otherwise the bottles break, and the wine runneth out, and the bottles perish. But new wine they put into new bottles: and both are preserved.

18And he was speaking these things unto them, behold a certain ruler came up, and adored him, saying: Lord, my daughter is even now dead; but come, lay thy hand upon her, and she shall live.

19And Jesus rising up followed him, with his disciples.

20And behold a woman who was troubled with an issue of blood twelve years, came behind him, and touched the hem of his garment.

21For she said within herself: If I shall touch only his garment, I shall be healed.

22But Jesus turning and seeing her, said: Be of good heart, daughter, thy faith hath made thee whole. And the woman was made whole from that hour.

23And when Jesus was come into the house of the ruler, and saw the minstrels and the multitude making a rout,

24He said: Give place, for the girl is not dead, but sleepeth. And they laughed him to scorn.

25And when the multitude was put forth, he went in, and took her by the hand. And the maid arose.

26And the fame hereof went abroad into all that country.

27And as Jesus passed from thence, there followed him two blind men crying out and saying, Have mercy on us, O Son of David.

28And when he was come to the house, the blind men came to him. And Jesus saith to them, Do you believe, that I can do this unto you? They say to him, Yea, Lord.

29Then he touched their eyes, saying, According to your faith, be it done unto you.

30And their eyes were opened, and Jesus strictly charged them, saying, See that no man know this.

31But they going out, spread his fame abroad in all that country.

32And when they were gone out, behold they brought him a dumb man, possessed with a devil.

33And after the devil was cast out, the dumb man spoke, and the multitudes wondered, saying, Never was the like seen in Israel.

34But the Pharisees said, By the prince of devils he casteth out devils.

35And Jesus went about all the cities, and towns, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing every disease, and every infirmity.

36And seeing the multitudes, he had compassion on them: because they were distressed, and lying like sheep that have no shepherd.

37Then he saith to his disciples, The harvest indeed is great, but the labourers are few.

38Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he send forth labourers into his harvest.
