路加福音 7

治好百夫长的仆人

1 耶稣向群众讲完这一切话，就进了迦百农。2 有百夫长所重用的一个奴仆，病得快要死了。3 百夫长听见耶稣的事，就打发犹太人中几个长老到他那里，求他去医治他的奴仆。4 长老们就来见耶稣，恳切地求他说：“你给他行这事，是他配得的，5 因为他爱我们的人民，给我们建造会堂。”6 耶稣就和他们同去。离那家不远的时候，百夫长派几个朋友来说：“主啊，不必劳驾，因为你到舍下来，我实在不敢当，7 我也觉得没有资格去见你；只要你说一句话，我的仆人就必好了。8 因为我自己是在别人的权下，也有兵在我以下；我对这个说：‘去！’他就去；对另一个说：‘来！’他就来；对我的仆人说：‘作这个！’他就作。”9 耶稣听见这些话，就很惊奇，转身对跟随的众人说：“我告诉你们，这样的信心，我在以色列中从来没有见过。”10 奉派的人回到家里，见那奴仆已经好了。
使拿因城寡妇的儿子复活11 后来耶稣往拿因城去，与他同去的有门徒和一大群人。12 他走近城门的时候，有人把一个死人抬出来，是个独生子，他母亲又是个寡妇。城里有一大群人陪着她。13 主看见了，就怜悯她，对她说：“不要哭！”14 于是上前按着槓子，抬的人就站住。他说：“青年人，我吩咐你起来！”15 那死人就坐起来，开口说话，耶稣就把他交给他母亲。16 众人都惊惧，颂讚 神说：“有伟大的先知在我们中间兴起来了！”又说：“ 神眷顾他的子民了！”17 于是这话传遍了犹太和周围各地。
约翰派门徒去见耶稣18 约翰的门徒把这一切事告诉约翰。他就叫了两个门徒，19 差他们往主那里去，说：“你就是那位要来的，还是我们要等别人呢？”20 两人来到耶稣跟前，说：“施洗的约翰差我们来问你：‘你就是那位要来的，还是我们要等别人呢？’”21 就在那时候，耶稣治好许多患疾病的、遭灾难的、身上有污鬼附着的，并且施恩给瞎眼的，使他们看见。22 耶稣回答他们：“你们回去，把看见和听见的都告诉约翰，就是瞎的可以看见，跛的可以走路，患痲风的得到洁净，聋的可以听见，死人复活，穷人有福音听。23 那不被我绊倒的，就有福了。”
耶稣论约翰24 约翰差来的人走了以后，耶稣对群众讲起约翰来，说：“你们到旷野去，是要看甚么？被风吹动的芦苇吗？25 你们出去到底要看甚么？身穿华丽衣服的人吗？这些衣服华丽，生活奢侈的人，是在王宫里的。26 那么，你们出去要看甚么？先知吗？我告诉你们，是的。他比先知重要得多了。27 圣经所记：
‘看哪，我差遣我的使者在你面前，
他必在你前头预备你的道路’，
这句话是指着他说的。28 我告诉你们，妇人所生的，没有一个比约翰更大，然而在 神的国里最小的比他还大。”29 众人和税吏受过约翰的洗礼，听见这话，就称 神为义。30 但法利赛人和律法师，未受过约翰的洗礼，就拒绝 神对他们的美意。31 耶稣又说：“我要把这世代的人比作甚么呢？他们好像甚么呢？32 他们好像小孩子坐在巿中心，彼此呼叫，说：
‘我们给你们吹笛子，你们却不跳舞；
我们唱哀歌，你们也不啼哭。’33 因为施洗的约翰来了，不吃饭，不喝酒，你们说他是鬼附的。34 人子来了，又吃又喝，你们说：‘你看，这人贪食好酒，与税吏和罪人为友。’35 但 神的智慧，藉着他的儿女就证实是公义的了。”
赦免犯了罪的女人36 有一个法利赛人，请耶稣同他吃饭，他就到法利赛人家去赴席。37 那城里有一个女人，是个罪人，知道他在法利赛人家里吃饭，就拿着一瓶香膏，38 站在耶稣背后，挨近他的脚哭，眼泪滴湿他的脚，又用自己的头发擦干，不住地吻他的脚，并且抹上香膏。39 请他的法利赛人看见了，心里说：“这人若是先知，必定知道摸他的是谁，是怎样的女人，因为她是个罪人！”40 耶稣对他说：“西门，我有句话要对你说。”他说：“老师，请说。”41 耶稣说：“一个债主有两个债户，一个欠五百银币，一个欠五十。42 他们都无力偿还，债主就把两人豁免了。他们之中哪一个更爱他呢？”43 西门回答：“我想是那个多得恩免的。”耶稣说：“你判断对了。”44 于是转身向着那女人，对西门说：“你看见这女人吗？我进了你的家，你没有给我水洗脚，但这女人用眼泪湿了我的脚，用头发擦干。45 你没有和我亲吻；但这女人，自从我进来，就不住地亲我的脚。46 你没有用油抹我的头；但这女人用香膏抹我的脚。47 所以我告诉你，她许多罪都蒙赦免了，因为她的爱多；那赦免少的，爱就少。”48 耶稣就对她说：“你的罪赦免了。”49 跟他一起吃饭的人心里说：“这是谁，竟然赦罪呢？”50 耶稣对那女人说：“你的信救了你，平安地去吧！”

Luke 7

Healing the Centurion’s Slave

1 After Jesust had finished teaching all this to the people,t he entered Capernaum.ss2 A centurions theret had a slavet who was highly regarded,t but who was sick and at the point of death.3 When the centuriont heardt about Jesus, he sent some Jewish elderss to him, asking him to comet and heal his slave.4 Whent they camet to Jesus, they urgedt him earnestly,t “He is worthyt to have you do this for him,5 because he loves our nation,t and event built our synagogue.”s6 Sot Jesus went with them. Whent he was not far from the house, the centurions sent friends to say to him, “Lord, do not trouble yourself,t for I am not worthys to have you come under my roof.7 That is whyt I did not presumet to come to you. Instead, say the word, and my servant must be healed.st8 For I too am a man set under authority, with soldiers under me.t I say to this one, ‘Go,’ and he goes,s and to another, ‘Come,’ and he comes, and to my slave, ‘Do this,’ and he does it.”t9 When Jesus heard this, he was amazedt at him. He turned and said to the crowd that followed him, “I tell you, not even in Israel have I found such faith!”s

10 Sot when those who had been sent returned to the house, they found the slaves well.

Raising a Widow’s Son

11 Soont afterwards Jesust went to a townt called Nain, and his disciples and a large crowd went with him.12 As he approached the town gate, a mant who had died was being carried out,t the only son of his mother (whot was a widows), and a large crowd from the townt was with her.13 Whent the Lord saw her, he had compassions for her and said to her, “Do not weep.”t14 Thent he came upt and toucheds the bier,s and those who carried it stood still. Het said, “Young man, I say to you, get up!”15 Sot the dead mant sat up and began to speak, and Jesust gave him backt to his mother.16 Feart seized them all, and they began to glorifyt God, saying, “A great prophets has appearedt among us!” and “God has come to helpt his people!”

17 Thist reports about Jesust circulatedt throughoutt Judea and all the surrounding country.

Jesus and John the Baptist

18 John’st disciples informed him about all these things. Sot John calledt two of his disciples19 and sent them to Jesuss to ask,t “Are you the one who is to come,s or should we look for another?”20 Whent the men came to Jesus,t they said, “John the Baptist has sent us to you to ask,t ‘Are you the one who is to come, or should we look for another?’”t21 At that very timet Jesust cured many people of diseases, sicknesses,t and evil spirits, and grantedt sight to many who were blind.22 Sot he answered them,t “Go tells John what you have seen and heard:s The blind see, the lame walk, lepers are cleansed, thet deaf hear, the dead are raised, the poor have good news proclaimed to them.

23 Blessed is anyonet who takes no offense at me.”
24 Whent John’s messengers had gone, Jesust began to speak to the crowds about John: “What did you go out into the wildernesst to see? A reed shaken by the wind?t25 Whatt did you go out to see? A man dressed in fancyt clothes?s Look, those who wear fancy clothes and live in luxuryt are in kings’ courts!t26 What did you go out to see? A prophet? Yes, I tell you, and moret than a prophet.27 This is the one about whom it is written, ‘Look, I am sending my messenger ahead of you,twho will prepare your way before you.’s28 I tell you, among those born of women no one is greaters than John.s Yet the one who is leasts in the kingdom of Gods is greater than he is.”29 (Nowt all the people who heard this, even the tax collectors,s acknowledgedt God’s justice, because they had been baptizedt with John’s baptism.

30 However, the Phariseess and the experts in religious lawt rejected God’s purposet for themselves, because they had not been baptizedt by John.t)s
31 “To what then should I compare the peoplet of this generation, and what are they like?

32 They are like children sitting in the marketplace and calling out to one another,t
‘We played the flute for you, yet you did not dance;s
we wailed in mourning,t yet you did not weep.’
33 For John the Baptist has comet eating no bread and drinking no wine,t and you say, ‘He has a demon!’s34 The Son of Man has come eating and drinking, and you say, ‘Look at him,t a glutton and a drunk, a friend of tax collectors and sinners!’s

35 But wisdom is vindicatedt by all her children.”t

Jesus’ Anointing

36 Now one of the Phariseess asked Jesust to have dinner with him, sot he went into the Pharisee’s house and took his place at the table.t37 Thent when a woman of that town, who was a sinner, learned that Jesust was diningt at the Pharisee’s house, she brought an alabaster jars of perfumed oil.ts38 Ast she stoodt behind him at his feet, weeping, she began to wet his feet with her tears. Shet wiped them with her hair,t kissedt them,t and anointeds them with the perfumed oil.39 Now when the Pharisee who had invited him saw this,t he said to himself, “If this man were a prophet,t he would know who and what kind of womans this is who is touching him, that she is a sinner.”40 Sot Jesus answered him,ts “Simon, I have something to say to you.” He replied,t “Say it, Teacher.”41 “A certain creditors had two debtors; one owed himt five hundred silver coins,ts and the other fifty.42 When they could not pay, he canceledt the debts of both. Now which of them will love him more?”43 Simon answered,t “I suppose the one who had the bigger debt canceled.”t Jesust said to him, “You have judged rightly.”44 Then,t turning toward the woman, he said to Simon, “Do you see this woman? I entered your house. You gave me no water for my feet,s but she has wet my feet with her tears and wiped them with her hair.45 You gave me no kiss of greeting,t but from the time I entered she has not stopped kissing my feet.46 You did not anoint my head with oil, but she has anointed my feets with perfumed oil.47 Therefore I tell you, her sins, which were many, are forgiven, thus she loved much;ts but the one who is forgiven little loves little.”48 Thent Jesust said to her, “Your sins are forgiven.”s49 Butt those who were at the tablet with him began to say among themselves, “Who is this, who even forgives sins?”

50 Het said to the woman, “Your faiths has saved you;s go in peace.”
