And when he finished all these words in the hearing of the people, Y'shua entered Kfar-Nachum.

And the servant of a certain centurion was badly afflicted, one who was precious to him, and he was near to dying.

And he heard about Y'shua and sent the elders of the Yehudaye to him, and was requesting from him that he would come and give life to his servant.

And when they came to Y'shua, they were requesting from him earnestly, and saying: He is worthy that you should do this for him;

for he loves our people, and he also built a house of assembly for us.

And Y'shua was going with them. And when he was not far from the house, the centurion sent his friends to him, and said to him: my Master, do not trouble yourself, for I am not worthy that you should enter under my roof.

Therefore I myself am not worthy to come to you, but say the word and my young man will be healed.

For I also am a man under authority, and I have soldiers under my hand, and I say to this one, Go, and he goes, and to another, Come, and he comes, and to my servant, Do this, and he does it.

And when Y'shua heard these things, he marveled at him, and he turned and said to the crowd that came after him, I say to you that not even in the house of Yisrael have I found faith like this.

And those who were sent returned to the house and found that servant who had been sick now well.

And it was on the day after that he was going to a city whose name is Nain, and his disciples were with him, and a great crowd.

And when he drew near to the gate of the city, he saw a dead man being carried out who was the only son of his mother, and she was a widow, and a great crowd of the sons of the city was with her.

And Y'shua saw her and had compassion on her, and said to her, Do not weep.

And he went and touched the bier, and those who were carrying him stood still. And he said, Young man, I say to you, Arise.

And the dead man sat up and began to speak, and he gave him to his mother.

And fear seized all the people, and they were glorifying Elohim and saying, A great prophet has arisen among us, and Elohim has visited his people.

And this word about him went out through all Yehuda and through all the region around them.

And the disciples of Yochanan told him all these things.

And Yochanan called two of his disciples and sent them to Y'shua and said: Are you he who is coming, or are we to look for another?

And they came to Y'shua and say to him: Yochanan the Immerser has sent us to you and says: Are you he who is coming, or are we to look for another?

And in that same hour he healed many from diseases and from plagues and from evil spirits, and to many blind he was giving sight.

And Y'shua answered and said to them: Go, say to Yochanan everything you have seen and heard: that the blind see, and the lame walk, and the lepers are cleansed, and the deaf hear, and the dead rise, and the poor are given good news.

And blessed is the one who is not stumbled in me.

And when the disciples of Yochanan had gone, he began to say to the crowds about Yochanan: What did you go out to the wilderness to see? A reed shaken by the wind?

Or if not, what did you go out to see? a man wearing soft clothes? Look, those who are in splendid clothing and in luxury are in kings' houses.

Or if not, what did you go out to see? a prophet? Yes, I say to you, and more than a prophet.

For this is he of whom it is written: Look, I send my messenger before your face, to prepare the way before you.

I say to you that there is no prophet among those born of women greater than Yochanan the Immerser; but the little one in the kingdom of Elohim is greater than he.

And all the people who heard, even the tax collectors, justified Elohim, for they were immersed with the immersion of Yochanan.

But the Pharisees and scribes rejected the will of Elohim against themselves, for they were not immersed by him.

To what then will I compare the people of this generation, and to what are they like?

They are like children who sit in the marketplace and call out to their companions and say: We played music for you and you did not dance; we wailed for you and you did not weep.

For Yochanan the Immerser came, not eating bread and not drinking wine, and you say: There is a demon in him.

The Son of man came eating and drinking, and you say: Look, a gluttonous man and a wine drinker, and a friend of tax collectors and of sinners.

And wisdom is justified by all her children.

Then one of the Pharisees asked him to eat with him. And he went into the house of that Pharisee and reclined.

And a sinful woman was in that city, and when she knew that he was reclining in the house of the Pharisee, she took an alabaster flask of perfume,

and stood behind him at his feet and was weeping, and she began to wet his feet with her tears and wipe them with the hair of her head, and she was kissing his feet and anointing them with the perfume.

And when the Pharisee who had invited him saw it, he thought in himself and said, This man, if he were a prophet, would know who she is and what her reputation is, for the woman who has approached him is a sinner.

And Y'shua answered and said to him, Shimon, I have something to say to you. And he said to him, Say it, Rabbi. Y'shua said to him,

There were two debtors to one creditor; one owed five hundred denarii, and the other fifty denarii.

And when they had nothing with which to repay, he forgave them both. Which of them therefore will love him more?

Shimon answered and said: I suppose he to whom much was forgiven. Y'shua said to him: You have judged correctly.

And he turned to the woman and said to Shimon: Do you see this woman? I entered your house, and you gave me no water for my feet; but she has washed my feet with her tears and wiped them with her hair.

You did not kiss me; but this woman, look, from the time she entered has not ceased to kiss my feet.

You did not anoint my head with oil; but she has anointed my feet with perfumed oil.

For this reason I say to you that her many sins are forgiven her, because she loved much. But he to whom little is forgiven loves little.

And he said to the woman: Your sins are forgiven you.

Then those who were reclining began to say in themselves, Who is this who even forgives sins?

But Y'shua said to her, Woman, your faith has given you life. Go in peace.
