1 And when G1525 he had completed all his words in the hearing ἀκοὰς akoas G189 of the people λαοῦ, laou G2992 , he entered εἰσῆλθεν eisēlthen G1525 into Capernaum Καφαρναούμ. Kapharnaoum G2584 . 2 And a certain τινος tinos G5100 centurion's bondman who was G1510 dear to him was G1510 ill and about to die ; 3 and having heard G191 of Jesus Ἰησοῦ Iēsou G2424 , he sent G649 to him elders πρεσβυτέρους presbuterous G4245 of the Jews Ἰουδαίων Ioudaiōn G2453 , begging G2065 him that he might come ἐλθὼν elthōn G2064 and save διασώσῃ diasōsē G1295 his bondman. 4 But they , being G1510 come to Jesus Ἰησοῦν Iēsoun G2424 , besought him diligently , saying λέγοντες legontes G3004 , He is G1510 worthy ἄξιός axios G514 to whom thou shouldest grant this , 5 for he loves G25 our nation ἔθνος ethnos G1484 , and himself has built G3618 the synagogue συναγωγὴν sunagōgēn G4864 for us. 7 Wherefore neither did I count G515 myself worthy ἠξίωσα ēxiōsa G515 to come ἐλθεῖν. elthein G2064 to thee. But say G3004 by a word λόγῳ, logō G3056 and my servant παῖς pais G3816 shall be healed ἰαθήτω iathētō G2390 . 8 For I also G2532 am G1510 a man ἄνθρωπός anthrōpos G444 placed under authority ἐξουσίαν exousian G1849 , having under myself soldiers στρατιώτας. stratiōtas G4757 , and I say λέγω legō G3004 to this [ one G3778 ], Go G4198 , and he goes G4198 ; and to another , Come G2064 , and he comes G2064 ; and to my bondman, Do this , and he does [ it ]. 10 And they who had been sent G3992 returning ὑποστρέψαντες hupostrepsantes G5290 to the house οἶκον oikon G3624 found G2147 the bondman, who was ill, in good ὑγιαίνοντα.¶ hugiainonta G5198 health G5198 . 13 And the Lord κύριος kurios G2962 , seeing G3708 her , was moved with compassion ἐσπλαγχνίσθη esplagchnisthē G4697 for her , and said G3004 to her , Weep κλαῖε. klaie G2799 not ; 14 and coming προσελθὼν proselthōn G4334 up he touched ἥψατο hēpsato G681 the bier, and the bearers stopped . And he said λέγω, legō G3004 , Youth, I say G3004 to thee, Wake up . 16 And fear φόβος phobos G5401 seized on all , and they glorified ἐδόξαζον edoxazon G1392 God θεὸν theon G2316 , saying λέγοντες legontes G3004 , A great μέγας megas G3173 prophet προφήτης prophētēs G4396 has been raised G1453 up amongst us ; and God θεὸς theos G2316 has visited his people λαὸν laon G2992 . 17 And this report λόγος logos G3056 went G1831 out in all Judaea concerning περὶ peri G4012 him , and in all the surrounding περιχώρῳ.¶ perichōrō G4066 country . 18 And the disciples G3101 of John Ἰωάννῃ Iōannē G2491 brought him word ἀπήγγειλαν apēngeilan G518 concerning περὶ peri G4012 all these things τούτων. toutōn G3778 : 21 In that hour ὥρᾳ hōra G5610 he healed ἐθεράπευσεν etherapeusen G2323 many πολλοὺς pollous G4183 of diseases G3554 and plagues and evil πονηρῶν ponērōn G4190 spirits πνευμάτων pneumatōn G4151 , and to many πολλοῖς pollois G4183 blind τυφλοῖς tuphlois G5185 he granted ἐχαρίσατο echarisato G5483 sight . 23 and blessed is G1510 whosoever shall not be G1510 offended σκανδαλισθῇ skandalisthēa G4624 in me . 24 And the messengers ἀγγέλων angelōn G32 of John Ἰωάννου Iōannou G2491 having departed Ἀπελθόντων Apelthontōn G565 , he began G757 to speak λέγειν legein G3004 to the crowds ὄχλους ochlous G3793 concerning περὶ peri G4012 John Ἰωάννου· Iōannou G2491 : What went ἐξήλθατε exēlthate G1831 ye out into the wilderness ἔρημον erēmon G2048 to behold? a reed κάλαμον kalamon G2563 shaken σαλευόμενον; saleuomenon G4531 by the wind ἀνέμου anemou G417 ? 25 But what went G1831 ye out to see G3708 ? a man ἄνθρωπον anthrōpon G444 clothed in delicate garments G2440 ? Behold ἰδοὺ idou G2400 , those who are G1510 in splendid clothing ἱματίοις himatiois G2440 and live luxuriously are G1510 in the courts of kings. 26 But what went G1831 ye out to see G3708 ? a prophet προφήτην; prophētēn G4396 ? Yea, I say λέγω legō G3004 to you , and [ what is ] more excellent than a prophet προφήτου. prophētou G4396 . 27 This is G1510 he concerning περὶ peri G4012 whom it is G1510 written G1125 , Behold ἰδοὺ idou G2400 , I send ἀποστέλλω apostellō G649 my messenger ἄγγελόν angelon G32 before thy face προσώπου prosōpou G4383 , who shall prepare κατασκευάσει kataskeuasei G2680 thy way ὁδόν hodon G3598 before thee; 29 ( And all the people λαὸς laos G2992 who heard G191 [ it ], and the tax-gatherers, justified G1344 God θεὸν theon G2316 , having been baptised with the baptism βάπτισμα baptisma G908 of John Ἰωάννου. Iōannou G2491 ; 30 but the Pharisees Φαρισαῖοι Pharisaioi G5330 and the lawyers νομικοὶ nomikoi G3544 rendered null as to themselves the counsel βουλὴν boulēn G1012 of God θεοῦ theou G2316 , not having been baptised by him .) 31 To whom therefore οὖν oun G3767 shall I liken the men G444 of this generation γενεᾶς geneas G1074 , and to whom are G1510 they like ? 32 They are G1510 like children G3813 sitting G2521 in the market-place, and calling one G240 to another and saying λέγει· legei G3004 , We have piped to you , and ye have not danced ὠρχήσασθε· ōrchēsasthe G3738 ; we have mourned to you , and ye have not wept G2799 . 33 For John Ἰωάννης Iōannēs G2491 the baptist βαπτιστὴς baptistēs G910 has come ἐλήλυθεν elēluthen G2064 neither eating ἐσθίων esthiōn G2068 bread ἄρτον arton G740 nor drinking πίνων pinōn G4095 wine οἶνον, oinon G3631 , and ye say λέγετε· legete G3004 , He has a demon δαιμόνιον daimonion G1140 . 34 The Son υἱὸς huios G5207 of man G444 has come ἐλήλυθεν elēluthen G2064 eating ἐσθίων esthiōn G2068 and drinking πίνων, pinōn G4095 , and ye say λέγετε· legete G3004 , Behold ἰδοὺ idou G2400 an eater and wine-drinker, a friend φίλος philos G5384 of tax-gatherers and sinners ἁμαρτωλῶν. hamartōlōn G268 ; 36 But one τις tis G5100 of the Pharisees Φαρισαίων Pharisaiōn G5330 begged G2065 him that he would eat G2068 with him . And entering εἰσελθὼν eiselthōn G1525 into the house οἶκον oikon G3624 of the Pharisee Φαρισαίου Pharisaiou G5330 he took his place at table; 37 and behold ἰδοὺ idou G2400 , a woman γυνὴ gunē G1135 in the city πόλει polei G4172 , who was G1510 a sinner ἁμαρτωλός. hamartōlos G268 , and knew G1921 that he was G1510 sitting at meat in the house οἰκίᾳ oikia G3614 of the Pharisee Φαρισαίου, Pharisaiou G5330 , having taken an alabaster ἀλάβαστρον alabastron G211 box of myrrh, 38 and standing G2476 at his feet G4228 behind [ him ] weeping κλαίουσα klaiousa G2799 , began G757 to wash his feet G4228 with tears δάκρυσιν dakrusin G1144 ; and she wiped them with the hairs θριξὶν thrixin G2359 of her head κεφαλῆς kephalēs G2776 , and kissed his feet G4228 , and anointed ἤλειφεν ēleiphen G218 [ them ] with the myrrh. 39 And the Pharisee Φαρισαῖος Pharisaios G5330 who had invited him , seeing G3708 it , spoke G3004 with himself saying λέγων· legōn G3004 , This [ person ] if he were G1510 a prophet προφήτης, prophētēs G4396 would have known G1097 who and what the woman γυνὴ gunē G1135 is G1510 who touches him , for she is G1510 a sinner ἁμαρτωλός hamartōlos G268 . 42 but as they had nothing to pay ἀποδοῦναι apodounai G591 , he forgave ἐχαρίσατο. echarisato G5483 both of them [ their debt]: [say,] which of them therefore οὖν oun G3767 will love ἀγαπήσει agapēsei G25 him most ? 43 And Simon Σίμων Simōn G4613 answering ἀποκριθεὶς apokritheis G611 said G3004 , I suppose he to whom he forgave ἐχαρίσατο. echarisato G5483 the most . And he said G3004 to him , Thou hast rightly ὀρθῶς orthōs G3723 judged G2919 . 44 And turning στραφεὶς strapheis G4762 to the woman γυναῖκα gunaika G1135 he said ἔφη· ephē G5346 to Simon Σίμωνι Simōni G4613 , Seest thou this woman γυναῖκα; gunaika G1135 ? I entered εἰσῆλθόν eisēlthon G1525 into thy house οἰκίαν, oikian G3614 ; thou gavest me not water ὕδωρ hudōr G5204 on my feet G4228 , but she has washed my feet G4228 with tears δάκρυσιν dakrusin G1144 , and wiped them with her hair θριξὶν thrixin G2359 . 45 Thou gavest me not a kiss φίλημά philēma G5370 , but she from the time I came G1525 in has not ceased kissing my feet G4228 . 46 My head κεφαλήν kephalēn G2776 with oil ἐλαίῳ elaiō G1637 thou didst not anoint ἤλειψας· ēleipsas G218 , but she has anointed ἤλειψεν ēleipsen G218 my feet G4228 with myrrh. 47 For which cause I say λέγω legō G3004 to thee, Her many πολλαί, pollai G4183 sins ἁμαρτίαι hamartiai G266 are forgiven ἀφέωνται apheōntai G863 ; for she loved G25 much πολύ· polu G4183 ; but he to whom little ὀλίγον oligon G3641 is forgiven ἀφίεται, aphietai G863 loves G25 little ὀλίγον oligon G3641 . 48 And he said G3004 to her , Thy sins ἁμαρτίαι. hamartiai G266 are forgiven ἀφέωνταί apheōntai G863 . ← Luke 6 Luke 8 → Darby Bible — 1889 — Public Domain
