And he entered into a ship, and passed over, and came into his own city.

Jesus got into a boat, crossed over, and came to His own town.

And, behold, they brought to him a man sick of the palsy, lying on a bed: and Jesus seeing their faith said unto the sick of the palsy; Son, be of good cheer; thy sins be forgiven thee.

Just then some men brought to Him a paralytic lying on a mat. When Jesus saw their faith, He said to the paralytic, “Take courage, son; your sins are forgiven.”

And, behold, certain of the scribes said within themselves, This man blasphemeth.

On seeing this, some of the scribes said to themselves, “This man is blaspheming!”

And Jesus knowing their thoughts said, Wherefore think ye evil in your hearts?

But Jesus knew what they were thinking and said, “Why do you harbor evil in your hearts?

For whether is easier, to say, Thy sins be forgiven thee; or to say, Arise, and walk?

Which is easier: to say, ‘Your sins are forgiven,’ or to say, ‘Get up and walk?’

But that ye may know that the Son of man hath power on earth to forgive sins, (then saith he to the sick of the palsy,) Arise, take up thy bed, and go unto thine house.

But so that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins...” Then He said to the paralytic, “Get up, pick up your mat, and go home.”

And he arose, and departed to his house.

And the man got up and went home.

But when the multitudes saw it, they marvelled, and glorified God, which had given such power unto men.

When the crowds saw this, they were filled with awe and glorified God, who had given such authority to men.

And as Jesus passed forth from thence, he saw a man, named Matthew, sitting at the receipt of custom: and he saith unto him, Follow me. And he arose, and followed him.

As Jesus went on from there, He saw a man named Matthew sitting at the tax booth. “Follow Me,” He told him, and Matthew got up and followed Him.

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

Later, as Jesus was dining at Matthew’s house, many tax collectors and sinners came and ate with Him and His disciples.

And when the Pharisees saw it, they said unto his disciples, Why eateth your Master with publicans and sinners?

When the Pharisees saw this, they asked His disciples, “Why does your Teacher eat with tax collectors and sinners?”

But when Jesus heard that, he said unto them, They that be whole need not a physician, but they that are sick.

On hearing this, Jesus said, “It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick.

But go ye and learn what that meaneth, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice: for I am not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.

But go and learn what this means: ‘I desire mercy, not sacrifice.’ For I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners.”

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

At that time John’s disciples came to Jesus and asked, “Why is it that we and the Pharisees fast so often, but Your disciples do not fast?”

And Jesus said unto them, Can the children of the bridechamber mourn, as long as the bridegroom is with them? but the days will come, when the bridegroom shall be taken from them, and then shall they fast.

Jesus replied, “How can the guests of the bridegroom mourn while He is with them? But the time will come when the bridegroom will be taken from them; then they will fast.

No man putteth a piece of new cloth unto an old garment, for that which is put in to fill it up taketh from the garment, and the rent is made worse.

No one sews a patch of unshrunk cloth on an old garment. For the patch will pull away from the garment, and a worse tear will result.

Neither do men put new wine into old bottles: else the bottles break, and the wine runneth out, and the bottles perish: but they put new wine into new bottles, and both are preserved.

Neither do men pour new wine into old wineskins. If they do, the skins will burst, the wine will spill, and the wineskins will be ruined. Instead, they pour new wine into new wineskins, and both are preserved.”

While he spake these things unto them, behold, there came a certain ruler, and worshipped him, saying, My daughter is even now dead: but come and lay thy hand upon her, and she shall live.

While Jesus was saying these things, a synagogue leader came and knelt before Him. “My daughter has just died,” he said. “But come and place Your hand on her, and she will live.”

And Jesus arose, and followed him, and so did his disciples.

So Jesus got up and went with him, along with His disciples.

And, behold, a woman, which was diseased with an issue of blood twelve years, came behind him, and touched the hem of his garment:

Suddenly a woman who had suffered from bleeding for twelve years came up behind Him and touched the fringe of His cloak.

For she said within herself, If I may but touch his garment, I shall be whole.

She said to herself, “If only I touch His cloak, I will be healed.”

But Jesus turned him about, and when he saw her, he said, Daughter, be of good comfort; thy faith hath made thee whole. And the woman was made whole from that hour.

Jesus turned and saw her. “Take courage, daughter,” He said, “your faith has healed you.” And the woman was cured from that very hour.

And when Jesus came into the ruler’s house, and saw the minstrels and the people making a noise,

When Jesus entered the house of the synagogue leader, He saw the flute players and the noisy crowd.

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

“Go away,” He told them. “The girl is not dead, but asleep.” And they laughed at Him.

But when the people were put forth, he went in, and took her by the hand, and the maid arose.

After the crowd had been put outside, Jesus went in and took the girl by the hand, and she got up.

And the fame hereof went abroad into all that land.

And the news about this spread throughout that region.

And when Jesus departed thence, two blind men followed him, crying, and saying, Thou Son of David, have mercy on us.

As Jesus went on from there, two blind men followed Him, crying out, “Have mercy on us, Son of David!”

And when he was come into the house, the blind men came to him: and Jesus saith unto them, Believe ye that I am able to do this? They said unto him, Yea, Lord.

After Jesus had entered the house, the blind men came to Him. “Do you believe that I am able to do this?” He asked. “Yes, Lord,” they answered.

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

Then He touched their eyes and said, “According to your faith will it be done to you.”

And their eyes were opened; and Jesus straitly charged them, saying, See that no man know it.

And their eyes were opened. Jesus warned them sternly, “See that no one finds out about this!”

But they, when they were departed, spread abroad his fame in all that country.

But they went out and spread the news about Him throughout the land.

As they went out, behold, they brought to him a dumb man possessed with a devil.

As they were leaving, a demon-possessed man who was mute was brought to Jesus.

And when the devil was cast out, the dumb spake: and the multitudes marvelled, saying, It was never so seen in Israel.

And when the demon had been driven out, the man began to speak. The crowds were amazed and said, “Nothing like this has ever been seen in Israel!”

But the Pharisees said, He casteth out devils through the prince of the devils.

But the Pharisees said, “It is by the prince of demons that He drives out demons.”

And Jesus went about all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing every sickness and every disease among the people.

Jesus went through all the towns and villages, teaching in their synagogues, preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing every disease and sickness.

But when he saw the multitudes, he was moved with compassion on them, because they fainted, and were scattered abroad, as sheep having no shepherd.

When He saw the crowds, He was moved with compassion for them, because they were harassed and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd.

Then saith he unto his disciples, The harvest truly is plenteous, but the labourers are few;

Then He said to His disciples, “The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few.

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

Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into His harvest.”
