< Luke 5 >

1 On one occasion, while Jesus was standing by the Lake of Gennesaret with the crowd pressing in on Him to hear the word of God,
Factum est autem, cum turbae irruerunt in eum, ut audirent verbum Dei, et ipse stabat secus stagnum Genesareth.
2 He saw two boats at the edge of the lake. The fishermen had left them and were washing their nets.
Et vidit duas naves stantes secus stagnum: piscatores autem descenderant, et lavabant retia.
3 Jesus got into the boat belonging to Simon and asked him to put out a little from shore. And sitting down, He taught the people from the boat.
Ascendens autem in unam navim, quae erat Simonis, rogavit eum a terra reducere pusillum. Et sedens docebat de navicula turbas.
4 When Jesus had finished speaking, He said to Simon, “Put out into deep water and let down your nets for a catch.”
Ut cessavit autem loqui, dixit ad Simonem: Duc in altum, et laxate retia vestra in capturam.
5 “Master,” Simon replied, “we have worked hard all night without catching anything. But because You say so, I will let down the nets.”
Et respondens Simon, dixit illi: Praeceptor, per totam noctem laborantes, nihil cepimus: in verbo autem tuo laxabo rete.
6 When they had done so, they caught such a large number of fish that their nets began to tear.
Et cum hoc fecissent, concluserunt piscium multitudinem copiosam, rumpebatur autem rete eorum.
7 So they signaled to their partners in the other boat to come and help them, and they came and filled both boats so full that they began to sink.
Et annuerunt sociis, qui erant in alia navi ut venirent, et adiuvarent eos. Et venerunt, et impleverunt ambas naviculas, ita ut pene mergerentur.
8 When Simon Peter saw this, he fell at Jesus’ knees. “Go away from me, Lord,” he said, “for I am a sinful man.”
Quod cum videret Simon Petrus, procidit ad genua Iesu, dicens: Exi a me, Domine, quia homo peccator sum.
9 For he and his companions were astonished at the catch of fish they had taken,
Stupor enim circumdederat eum, et omnes, qui cum illo erant, in captura piscium, quam ceperant:
10 and so were his partners James and John, the sons of Zebedee. “Do not be afraid,” Jesus said to Simon. “From now on you will catch men.”
Similiter autem Iacobum, et Ioannem, filios Zebedaei, qui erant socii Simonis. Et ait ad Simonem Iesus: Noli timere: ex hoc iam homines eris capiens.
11 And when they had brought their boats ashore, they left everything and followed Him.
Et subductis ad terram navibus, relictis omnibus secuti sunt eum.
12 While Jesus was in one of the towns, a man came along who was covered with leprosy. When he saw Jesus, he fell facedown and begged Him, “Lord, if You are willing, You can make me clean.”
Et factum est, cum esset in una civitatum, et ecce vir plenus lepra, et videns Iesum, et procidens in faciem, rogavit eum, dicens: Domine, si vis, potes me mundare.
13 Jesus reached out His hand and touched the man. “I am willing,” He said. “Be clean!” And immediately the leprosy left him.
Et extendens manum, tetigit eum Iesus dicens: Volo: Mundare. Et confestim lepra discessit ab illo.
14 “Do not tell anyone,” Jesus instructed him. “But go, show yourself to the priest and present the offering Moses prescribed for your cleansing, as a testimony to them.”
et ipse praecepit illi ut nemini diceret: sed, Vade, ostende te sacerdoti, et offer pro emundatione tua, sicut praecepit Moyses, in testimonium illis.
15 But the news about Jesus spread all the more, and great crowds came to hear Him and to be healed of their sicknesses.
Perambulabat autem magis sermo de illo: et conveniebant turbae multae ut audirent, et curarentur ab infirmitatibus suis.
16 Yet He frequently withdrew to the wilderness to pray.
Ipse autem secedebat in desertum, et orabat.
17 One day Jesus was teaching, and the Pharisees and teachers of the law were sitting there. People had come from Jerusalem and from every village of Galilee and Judea, and the power of the Lord was present for Him to heal the sick.
Et factum est in una dierum, et ipse sedebat docens. Et erant Pharisaei sedentes, et legis doctores, qui venerant ex omni castello Galilaeae, et Iudaeae, et Ierusalem: et virtus Domini erat ad sanandum eos.
18 Just then some men came carrying a paralyzed man on a mat. They tried to bring him inside to set him before Jesus,
Et ecce viri portantes in lecto hominem, qui erat paralyticus: et quaerebant eum inferre, et ponere ante eum.
19 but they could not find a way through the crowd. So they went up on the roof and lowered him on his mat through the tiles into the middle of the crowd, right in front of Jesus.
Et non invenientes qua parte illum inferrent prae turba, ascenderunt supra tectum, et per tegulas summiserunt eum cum lecto in medium ante Iesum.
20 When Jesus saw their faith, He said, “Friend, your sins are forgiven.”
Quorum fidem ut vidit, dixit: Homo remittuntur tibi peccata tua.
21 But the scribes and Pharisees began thinking to themselves, “Who is this man who speaks blasphemy? Who can forgive sins but God alone?”
Et coeperunt cogitare Scribae, et Pharisaei, dicentes: Quis est hic, qui loquitur blasphemias? Quis potest dimittere peccata, nisi solus Deus?
22 Knowing what they were thinking, Jesus replied, “Why are you thinking these things in your hearts?
Ut cognovit autem Iesus cogitationes eorum, respondens, dixit ad illos: Quid cogitatis mala in cordibus vestris?
23 Which is easier: to say, ‘Your sins are forgiven,’ or to say, ‘Get up and walk?’
Quid est facilius dicere: Dimittuntur tibi peccata: an dicere: Surge, et ambula?
24 But so that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on the earth to forgive sins...” He said to the paralytic, “I tell you, get up, pick up your mat, and go home.”
Ut autem sciatis quia Filius hominis habet potestatem in terra dimittendi peccata, (ait paralytico) Tibi dico, surge, tolle lectum tuum, et vade in domum tuam.
25 And immediately the man stood up before them, took what he had been lying on, and went home glorifying God.
Et confestim consurgens coram illis, tulit lectum, in quo iacebat: et abiit in domum suam, magnificans Deum.
26 Everyone was taken with amazement and glorified God. They were filled with awe and said, “We have seen remarkable things today.”
Et stupor apprehendit omnes, et magnificabant Deum. Et repleti sunt timore, dicentes: Quia vidimus mirabilia hodie.
27 After this, Jesus went out and saw a tax collector named Levi sitting at the tax booth. “Follow Me,” He told him,
Et post haec exiit, et vidit publicanum nomine Levi, sedentem ad Telonium, et ait illi: Sequere me.
28 and Levi got up, left everything, and followed Him.
Et relictis omnibus, surgens secutus est eum.
29 Then Levi hosted a great banquet for Jesus at his house. A large crowd of tax collectors was there, along with others who were eating with them.
et fecit ei convivium magnum Levi in domo sua: et erat turba multa publicanorum, et aliorum, qui cum illis erant discumbentes.
30 But the Pharisees and their scribes complained to Jesus’ disciples, “Why do you eat and drink with tax collectors and sinners?”
Et murmurabant Pharisaei, et Scribae eorum dicentes ad discipulos eius: Quare cum publicanis, et peccatoribus manducatis, et bibitis?
31 Jesus answered, “It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick.
Et respondens Iesus, dixit ad illos: Non egent qui sani sunt medico, sed qui male habent.
32 I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners, to repentance.”
Non veni vocare iustos, sed peccatores ad poenitentiam.
33 Then they said to Him, “John’s disciples and those of the Pharisees frequently fast and pray, but Yours keep on eating and drinking.”
At illi dixerunt ad eum: Quare discipuli Ioannis ieiunant frequenter, et obsecrationes faciunt, similiter et Pharisaeorum: tui autem edunt, et bibunt?
34 Jesus replied, “Can you make the guests of the bridegroom fast while He is with them?
Quibus ipse ait: Numquid potestis filios sponsi, dum cum illis est sponsus, facere ieiunare?
35 But the time will come when the bridegroom will be taken from them; then they will fast.”
Venient autem dies: cum ablatus fuerit ab illis sponsus, tunc ieiunabunt in illis diebus.
36 He also told them a parable: “No one tears a piece of cloth from a new garment and sews it on an old one. If he does, he will tear the new garment as well, and the patch from the new will not match the old.
Dicebat autem et similitudinem ad illos: Quia nemo commissuram a novo vestimento immittit in vestimentum vetus: alioquin et novum rumpit, et veteri non convenit commissura a novo.
37 And no one pours new wine into old wineskins. If he does, the new wine will burst the skins, the wine will spill, and the wineskins will be ruined.
Et nemo mittit vinum novum in utres veteres: alioquin rumpet vinum novum utres, et ipsum effundetur, et utres peribunt.
38 Instead, new wine is poured into new wineskins.
sed vinum novum in utres novos mittendum est, et utraque conservantur.
39 And no one after drinking old wine wants new, for he says, ‘The old is better.’”
Et nemo bibens vetus, statim vult novum, dicit enim: Vetus melius est.
