Lucam 7
1 Cum autem implesset omnia verba sua in aures plebis, intravit Capharnaum.
When Jesus had finished saying all this in the hearing of the people, he entered Capernaum.
2 Centurionis autem cuiusdam servus male habens, erat moriturus: qui illi erat pretiosus.
There a centurion's servant, who was highly regarded by him, was sick and about to die.
3 Et cum audisset de Iesu, misit ad eum seniores Iudæorum, rogans eum ut veniret, et salvaret servum eius.
The centurion heard about Jesus and sent some Jewish elders to him, asking him to come and heal his servant.
4 At illi cum venissent ad Iesum, rogabant eum solicite, dicentes ei: Quia dignus est ut hoc illi præstes.
When they came to Jesus, they earnestly pleaded with him, saying, “This man is worthy to have yoʋ do this for him,
5 diligit enim gentem nostram: et synagogam ipse ædificavit nobis.
for he loves our nation and built our synagogue for us.”
6 Iesus autem ibat cum illis. Et cum iam non longe esset a domo, misit ad eum Centurio amicos, dicens: Domine noli vexari: Non enim sum dignus ut sub tectum meum intres.
So Jesus went with them. When he was not far from the house, the centurion sent friends to say to him, “Lord, do not trouble yoʋrself, for I am not worthy to have yoʋ enter under my roof;
7 propter quod et meipsum non sum dignum arbitratus ut venirem ad te: sed dic verbo, et sanabitur puer meus.
therefore I did not even consider myself worthy to come to yoʋ. But just say the word, and my servant will be healed.
8 nam et ego homo sum sub potestate constitutus, habens sub me milites: et dico huic vade, et vadit: et alii veni, et venit: et servo meo, fac hoc, et facit.
For I too am a man set under authority, with soldiers under me. 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.”
9 Quo audito Iesus miratus est: et conversus sequentibus se turbis, dixit: Amen dico vobis, nec in Israel tantam fidem inveni.
When Jesus heard this, he was amazed at the centurion. And turning to the crowd that was following him, he said, “I tell you, not even in Israel have I found such great faith.”
10 Et reversi, qui missi fuerant domum, invenerunt servum, qui languerat, sanum.
Then the men the centurion had sent returned to the house and found that the servant who had been sick was well.
11 Et factum est: deinceps ibat in civitatem, quæ vocatur Naim: et ibant cum eo discipuli eius, et turba copiosa.
Soon afterward Jesus went to a town called Nain, and many of his disciples went with him, along with a large crowd.
12 Cum autem appropinquaret portæ civitatis, ecce defunctus efferebatur filius unicus matris suæ: et hæc vidua erat: et turba civitatis multa cum illa.
As he drew near to the gate of the town, behold, a man who had died was being carried out, the one and only son of his mother (who was a widow). And a large crowd from the town was with her.
13 Quam cum vidisset Dominus, misericordia motus super eam, dixit illi: Noli flere.
When the Lord saw her, he was moved with compassion for her and said to her, “Do not weep.”
14 Et accessit, et tetigit loculum. (Hi autem, qui portabant, steterunt) Et ait: Adolescens, tibi dico, surge.
Then he came up and touched the bier, and those who were carrying it stood still. He said, “Young man, I say to yoʋ, arise!”
15 Et resedit qui erat mortuus, et cœpit loqui. Et dedit illum matri suæ.
So the dead man sat up and began to speak, and Jesus gave him back to his mother.
16 Accepit autem omnes timor: et magnificabant Deum, dicentes: Quia propheta magnus surrexit in nobis: et quia Deus visitavit plebem suam.
Then all the people were filled with awe and began glorifying God, saying, “A great prophet has arisen among us,” and, “God has visited his people.”
17 Et exiit hic sermo in universam Iudæam de eo, et in omnem circa regionem.
This news about Jesus then spread throughout Judea and all the surrounding region.
18 Et nunciaverunt Ioanni discipuli eius de omnibus his.
John's disciples told him about all these things.
19 Et convocavit duos de discipulis suis Ioannes, et misit ad Iesum, dicens: Tu es qui venturus es, an alium expectamus?
So John called two of his disciples and sent them to ask Jesus, “Are yoʋ the one who is to come, or should we wait for another?”
20 Cum autem venissent ad eum viri, dixerunt: Ioannes Baptista misit nos ad te dicens: Tu es, qui venturus es, an alium expectamus?
When the men came to him, they said, “John the Baptist has sent us to yoʋ to ask, ‘Are yoʋ the one who is to come, or should we wait for another?’”
21 (in ipsa autem hora multos curavit a languoribus, et plagis, et spiritibus malis, et cæcis multis donavit visum.)
Now in that very hour Jesus had healed many people of diseases, afflictions, and evil spirits, and had given sight to many who were blind.
22 Et respondens, dixit illis: Euntes renunciate Ioanni quæ audistis, et vidistis: Quia cæci vident, claudi ambulant, leprosi mundantur, surdi audiunt, mortui resurgunt, pauperes evangelizantur:
So Jesus replied to John's disciples, “Go tell John what you have seen and heard: The blind receive their sight, the lame walk, lepers are made clean, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, and the poor have good news preached to them.
23 et beatus est quicumque non fuerit scandalizatus in me.
And blessed is anyone who does not take offense at me.”
24 Et cum discessissent nuncii Ioannis, cœpit de Ioanne dicere ad turbas: Quid existis in desertum videre? arundinem vento agitatam?
When John's messengers had gone away, Jesus began to speak to the crowds about John: “What did you go out into the wilderness to see? A reed shaken by the wind?
25 Sed quid existis videre? hominem mollibus vestibus indutum? Ecce qui in veste pretiosa sunt et deliciis, in domibus regum sunt.
What then did you go out to see? A man clothed in soft garments? Behold, those who are dressed in splendid clothing and who live in luxury are in royal palaces.
26 Sed quid existis videre? prophetam? Utique dico vobis, et plusquam Prophetam:
But what did you go out to see? A prophet? Yes, I tell you, and more than a prophet.
27 hic est, de quo scriptum est: Ecce mitto angelum meum ante faciem tuam, qui præparabit viam tuam ante te.
This is the one of whom it is written, ‘Behold, I am sending my messenger ahead of yoʋ, who will prepare yoʋr way before yoʋ.’
28 Dico enim vobis: Maior inter natos mulierum propheta Ioanne Baptista nemo est. qui autem minor est in regno Dei, maior est illo.
For I tell you, among those born of women there is no prophet greater than John the Baptist, but whoever is least in the kingdom of God is greater than he.”
29 Et omnis populus audiens et publicani, iustificaverunt Deum, baptizati baptismo Ioannis.
(When all the people heard this, including the tax collectors, they acknowledged the justice of God, because they had been baptized with the baptism of John.
30 Pharisæi autem, et legis periti consilium Dei spreverunt in semetipsos, non baptizati ab eo.
But the Pharisees and the lawyers rejected the will of God for themselves, because they had not been baptized by John.)
31 Ait autem Dominus: Cui ergo similes dicam homines generationis huius? et cui similes sunt?
“To what then should I compare the people of this generation, and what are they like?
32 Similes sunt pueris sedentibus in foro, et loquentibus adinvicem, et dicentibus: Cantavimus vobis tibiis, et non saltastis: lamentavimus, et non plorastis.
They are like children who sit in the marketplace and call out to one another, ‘We played the flute for you, but you did not dance; we sang a lament for you, but you did not weep.’
33 Venit enim Ioannes Baptista, neque manducans panem, neque bibens vinum, et dicitis: Dæmonium habet.
For John the Baptist came neither eating bread nor drinking wine, and you say, ‘He has a demon.’
34 Venit Filius hominis manducans, et bibens, et dicitis: Ecce homo devorator, et bibens vinum, amicus publicanorum, et peccatorum.
The Son of Man came eating and drinking, and you say, ‘Behold, a glutton and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners!’
35 Et iustificata est sapientia ab omnibus filiis suis.
Yet wisdom is justified by all her children.”
36 Rogabat autem illum quidam de Pharisæis ut manducaret cum illo. Et ingressus domum Pharisæi discubuit.
One of the Pharisees asked Jesus to eat with him, so he went into the Pharisee's house and reclined at the table.
37 Et ecce mulier, quæ erat in civitate peccatrix, ut cognovit quod accubuisset in domo Pharisæi, attulit alabastrum unguenti:
And behold, a woman in the city who was a sinner, when she found out that Jesus was reclining at the table in the Pharisee's house, brought an alabaster jar of ointment.
38 et stans retro secus pedes eius, lacrymis cœpit rigare pedes eius, et capillis capitis sui tergebat, et osculabatur pedes eius, et unguento ungebat.
As she stood behind him at his feet, weeping, she began to wet his feet with her tears. Then she wiped them with the hair of her head, kissed his feet, and anointed them with the ointment.
39 Videns autem Pharisæus, qui vocaverat eum, ait intra se dicens: Hic si esset propheta, sciret utique, quæ, et qualis est mulier, quæ tangit eum: quia peccatrix est.
When the Pharisee who had invited him saw it, he said to himself, “If this man were a prophet, he would know who is touching him and what kind of woman she is—that she is a sinner.”
40 Et respondens Iesus, dixit ad illum: Simon, habeo tibi aliquid dicere. At ille ait: Magister, dic.
Jesus said to him in response, “Simon, I have something to say to yoʋ.” So he said, “Say it, Teacher.”
41 Duo debitores erant cuidam fœneratori: unus debebat denarios quingentos, et alius quinquaginta.
“A certain moneylender had two debtors. The one owed five hundred denarii, and the other owed fifty.
42 Non habentibus illis unde redderent, donavit utrisque. Quis ergo eum plus diligit?
When they did not have the means to repay, he forgave the debts of them both. So tell me, which of them will love him more?”
43 Respondens Simon dixit: Æstimo quia is, cui plus donavit. At ille dixit ei: Recte iudicasti.
Simon answered, “I suppose that it would be the one for whom he forgave the larger debt.” Jesus said to him, “Yoʋ have judged correctly.”
44 Et conversus ad mulierem, dixit Simoni: Vides hanc mulierem? Intravi in domum tuam, aquam pedibus meis non dedisti: hæc autem lacrymis rigavit pedes meos, et capillis suis tersit.
Then he turned toward the woman and said to Simon, “Do yoʋ see this woman? When I came into yoʋr house, yoʋ did not give me water for my feet, but this woman has wet my feet with her tears and wiped them with the hair of her head.
45 Osculum mihi non dedisti: hæc autem ex quo intravit, non cessavit osculari pedes meos.
Yoʋ did not give me a kiss, but from the time I came in, this woman has not stopped kissing my feet.
46 Oleo caput meum non unxisti: hæc autem unguento unxit pedes meos.
Yoʋ did not anoint my head with oil, but this woman has anointed my feet with ointment.
47 Propter quod dico tibi: Remittuntur ei peccata multa, quoniam dilexit multum. Cui autem minus dimittitur, minus diligit.
Therefore I tell yoʋ, her many sins are forgiven; that is why she has shown great love. But he to whom little is forgiven shows little love.”
48 Dixit autem ad illam: Remittuntur tibi peccata.
Then Jesus said to her, “Yoʋr sins are forgiven.”
49 Et cœperunt qui simul accumbebant, dicere intra se: Quis est hic, qui etiam peccata dimittit?
But those who were reclining at the table with him began to say among themselves, “Who is this man that even forgives sins?”
50 Dixit autem ad mulierem: Fides tua te salvam fecit: vade in pace.
And Jesus said to the woman, “Yoʋr faith has saved yoʋ; go in peace.”
