Matthew 9:1-17

1And going on board the shipG4143, he passed over and cameG2064 to his ownG2398 cityG4172.

2And beholdG2400, they broughtG4374 to him a paralyticG3885, laid upon a bedG2825; and JesusG2424, seeingG3708 their faithG4102, saidG3004 to the paralyticG3885, Be of good courageG2293, childG5043; thy sinsG266 are forgivenG863.

3And beholdG2400, certainG5100 of the scribesG1122 saidG3004 to themselves, This [manG3778] blasphemesG987.

4And JesusG2424, seeingG3708 their thoughtsG1761, saidG3004, Why do ye think evilG4190 things in your heartsG2588?

5For which isG1510 easier: to sayG3004, Thy sinsG266 areG1510 forgivenG863; or to sayG3004, RiseG1453 up and walkG4043?

6But that ye may know that the SonG5207 of manG444 has powerG1849 on earthG1093 to forgiveG863 sinsG266, (then he saysG3004 to the paralyticG3885,) RiseG1453 up, takeG142 up thy bedG2825 and goG5217 to thy houseG3624.

7And he roseG1453 up and wentG565 to his houseG3624.

8But the crowdsG3793 seeingG3708 [it], were in fearG5399, and glorifiedG1392 1GodG2316 who gaveG1325 suchG5108 powerG1849 to menG444.

9And JesusG2424, passing on thence, sawG3708 a manG444 sittingG2521 at the tax-office, called MatthewG3156, and saysG3004 to him, FollowG190 me. And he roseG450 up and followedG190 him.

10And it cameG2064 to passG1096, as he lay at table in the houseG3614, that beholdG2400, manyG4183 tax-gatherers and sinnersG268 cameG2064 and lay at table with JesusG2424 and his disciplesG3101.

11And the PhariseesG5330 seeingG3708 [it], saidG3004 to his disciplesG3101, WhyG5101 does your teacherG1320 eatG2068 with tax-gatherers and sinnersG268?

12But [Jesus] hearingG191 it, saidG3004, They that are strongG2480 have not needG5532 of a physicianG2395, but those that are ill.

13But goG4198 and learnG3129 what [that] isG1510 — I will have mercyG1656 and not sacrificeG2378; for I have not comeG2064 to callG2564 righteousG1342 [menG1342] but sinnersG268.

14Then comeG4334 to him the disciplesG3101 of JohnG2491, sayingG3004, WhyG5101 do we and the PhariseesG5330 often fastG3522, but thy disciplesG3101 fastG3522 not?

15And JesusG2424 saidG3004 to them, Can the sonsG5207 of the bridechamber mournG3996 so long as the bridegroomG3566 isG1510 with them? But daysG2250 will comeG2064 whenG3752 the bridegroomG3566 will have beenG1510 taken awayG522 from them, and then they will fastG3522.

16But no oneG3762 putsG1911 a patchG1915 of new clothG4470 on an oldG3820 garmentG2440, for its filling up takesG142 from the garmentG2440 and a worse rent takesG142 placeG1096.

17Nor do men putG906 newG2537 wineG3631 into oldG3820 skins, otherwise the skins burstG4486 and the wineG3631 is pouredG906 out, and the skins will be destroyedG622; but they putG906 newG2537 wineG3631 into newG2537 skins, and both are preserved together.
