< Lucam 7 >

1 Cum autem implesset omnia verba sua in aures plebis, intravit Capharnaum.
Now when he had ended all his sayings in the audience of the people, he entered into Capernaum.
2 Centurionis autem cuiusdam servus male habens, erat moriturus: qui illi erat pretiosus.
And a certain centurion's servant, who was dear to him, was sick, and ready to die.
3 Et cum audisset de Iesu, misit ad eum seniores Iudaeorum, rogans eum ut veniret, et sanaret servum eius.
And when he heard of Jesus, he sent to him the elders of the Jews, beseeching him that he would come and heal his servant.
4 At illi cum venissent ad Iesum, rogabant eum solicite, dicentes ei: Quia dignus est ut hoc illi praestes.
And when they came to Jesus, they besought him earnestly, saying, That he was worthy for whom he should do this:
5 diligit enim gentem nostram: et synagogam ipse aedificavit nobis.
For he loveth our nation, and he hath built us a synagogue.
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.
Then Jesus went with them. And when he was now not far from the house, the centurion sent friends to him, saying to him, Lord, trouble not thyself: for I am not worthy that thou shouldest enter under my roof;
7 propter quod et meipsum non sum dignum arbitratus ut venirem ad te: sed dic verbo, et sanabitur puer meus.
Wherefore neither thought I myself worthy to come to thee; but say in a word, and my servant shall be healed.
8 nam et ego homo sum sub potestate constitutus, habens sub me milites: et dico huic vade, et vadit: et alio veni, et venit: et servo meo, fac hoc, et facit.
For I also am a man set under authority, having under me soldiers, and I say to one, Go, and he goeth; and to another, Come, and he cometh; and to my servant, Do this, and he doeth [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 these things, he marveled at him, and turned himself about and said to the people that followed him, I say to you, I have not found so great faith, no, not in Israel.
10 Et reversi, qui missi fuerant domum, invenerunt servum, qui languerat, sanum.
And they that were sent, returning to the house, found the servant well that had been sick.
11 Et factum est: deinceps ibat Iesus in civitatem, quae vocatur Naim: et ibant cum eo discipuli eius, et turba copiosa.
And it came to pass the day after, that he went into a city called Nain: and many of his disciples went with him, and many people.
12 Cum autem appropinquaret portae civitatis, ecce defunctus efferebatur filius unicus matris suae: et haec vidua erat: et turba civitatis multa cum illa.
Now when he came nigh to the gate of the city, behold, there was a dead man carried out, the only son of his mother, and she was a widow: and many people of the city were with her.
13 Quam cum vidisset Dominus, misericordia motus super eam, dixit illi: Noli flere.
And when the Lord saw her, he had compassion on her, and said to her, Weep not.
14 Et accessit, et tetigit loculum. (Hi autem, qui portabant, steterunt) Et ait: Adolescens, tibi dico, surge.
And he came and touched the bier: And they that bore [him] stood still. And he said, Young man, I say to thee, Arise.
15 Et resedit qui erat mortuus, et coepit loqui. Et dedit illum matri suae.
And he that was dead sat up, and began to speak, and he delivered him to his mother.
16 Accepit autem omnes timor: et magnificabant Deum, dicentes: Quia propheta magnus surrexit in nobis: et quia Deus visitavit plebem suam.
And there came a fear on all: and they glorified God, saying, That a great prophet hath risen among us; and, That God hath visited his people.
17 Et exiit hic sermo in universam Iudaeam de eo, et in omnem circa regionem.
And this rumor of him went forth throughout all Judea, and throughout all the neighboring region.
18 Et nunciaverunt Ioanni discipuli eius de omnibus his.
And the disciples of John informed him of all these things.
19 Et convocavit duos de discipulis suis Ioannes, et misit ad Iesum, dicens: Tu es qui venturus es, an alium expectamus?
And John calling two of his disciples sent [them] to Jesus, saying, Art thou he that should come? or look we 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 had come to him, they said, John the Baptist hath sent us to thee, saying, Art thou he that should come? or look we for another?
21 (in ipsa autem hora multos curavit a languoribus, et plagis, et spiritibus malis, et caecis multis donavit visum.)
And in that same hour he cured many of [their] infirmities, and diseases, and of evil spirits; and to many [that were] blind he gave sight.
22 Et respondens, dixit illis: Euntes renunciate Ioanni quae audistis, et vidistis: Quia caeci vident, claudi ambulant, leprosi mundantur, surdi audiunt, mortui resurgunt, pauperes evangelizantur:
Then Jesus answering, said to them, Go, and tell John what things ye have seen and heard; that the blind see, the lame walk, lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, to the poor the gospel is preached.
23 et beatus est quicumque non fuerit scandalizatus in me.
And blessed is [he], to whom I shall not be a stumbling block.
24 Et cum discessissent nuncii Ioannis, coepit de Ioanne dicere ad turbas: Quid existis in desertum videre? arundinem vento agitatam?
And when the messengers of John had departed, he began to speak to the people concerning John, What went ye out into the wilderness to see? A reed shaken with the wind?
25 Sed quid existis videre? hominem mollibus vestibus indutum? Ecce qui in veste pretiosa sunt et deliciis, in domibus regum sunt.
But what went ye out to see? A man clothed in soft raiment? behold, they who are gorgeously appareled, and live delicately, are in kings' courts.
26 Sed quid existis videre? prophetam? Utique dico vobis, et plusquam Prophetam:
But what went ye out to see? A prophet? Yes, I say to you, and much more than a prophet.
27 hic est, de quo scriptum est: Ecce mitto angelum meum ante faciem tuam, qui praeparabit viam tuam ante te.
This is [he], concerning whom it is written, Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, who shall prepare thy way before thee.
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 say to you, Among those that are born of women, there is not a greater prophet than John the Baptist: but he that is least in the kingdom of God, is greater than he.
29 Et omnis populus audiens et publicani, iustificaverunt Deum, baptizati baptismo Ioannis.
And all the people that heard [him], and the publicans, justified God, being baptized with the baptism of John.
30 Pharisaei autem, et legis periti consilium Dei spreverunt in semetipsos, non baptizati ab eo.
But the Pharisees and lawyers rejected the counsel of God against themselves, being not baptized by him.
31 Ait autem Dominus: Cui ergo similes dicam homines generationis huius? et cui similes sunt?
And the Lord said, To what then shall I liken the men of this generation? and to 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 sitting in the market-place, and calling one to another, and saying, We have piped to you, and ye have not danced; we have mourned to you, and ye have not wept.
33 Venit enim Ioannes Baptista, neque manducans panem, neque bibens vinum, et dicitis: Daemonium habet.
For John the Baptist came neither eating bread, nor drinking wine; and ye say, He hath 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 is come eating and drinking; and ye say, Behold, a gluttonous man, and a wine-bibber, a friend of publicans and sinners.
35 Et iustificata est sapientia ab omnibus filiis suis.
But wisdom is justified by all her children.
36 Rogabat autem illum quidam de Pharisaeis ut manducaret cum illo. Et ingressus domum Pharisaei discubuit.
And one of the Pharisees desired him that he would eat with him. And he went into the Pharisee's house, and sat down at table.
37 Et ecce mulier, quae erat in civitate peccatrix, ut cognovit quod Iesus accubuisset in domo Pharisaei, attulit alabastrum unguenti:
And behold, a woman in the city, who was a sinner, when she knew that [Jesus] sat at table in the Pharisee's house, brought an alabaster-box of ointment,
38 et stans retro secus pedes eius, lacrymis coepit rigare pedes eius, et capillis capitis sui tergebat, et osculabatur pedes eius, et unguento ungebat.
And stood at his feet behind [him] weeping, and began to wash his feet with tears, and wiped [them] with the hairs of her head, and kissed his feet, and anointed [them] with the ointment.
39 Videns autem Pharisaeus, qui vocaverat eum, ait intra se dicens: Hic si esset propheta, sciret utique, quae, et qualis est mulier, quae tangit eum: quia peccatrix est.
Now when the Pharisee who had invited him, saw [it], he spoke within himself, saying, This man, if he were a prophet, would have known who, and what manner of woman [this is] that toucheth him, for she is a sinner.
40 Et respondens Iesus, dixit ad illum: Simon, habeo tibi aliquid dicere. At ille ait: Magister, dic.
And Jesus answering, said to him, Simon, I have somewhat to say to thee. And he saith, Master, speak.
41 Duo debitores erant cuidam foeneratori: unus debebat denarios quingentos, et alius quinquaginta.
There was a certain creditor, who had two debtors: the one owed five hundred pence, and the other fifty.
42 Non habentibus illis unde redderent, donavit utrisque. Quis ergo eum plus diligit?
And when they had nothing to pay, he frankly forgave them both. Tell me therefore, which of them will love him most?
43 Respondens Simon dixit: Aestimo quia is, cui plus donavit. At ille dixit ei: Recte iudicasti.
Simon answered and said, I suppose that [he], to whom he forgave most. And he said to him, Thou hast rightly judged.
44 Et conversus ad mulierem, dixit Simoni: Vides hanc mulierem? Intravi domum tuam, aquam pedibus meis non dedisti: haec autem lacrymis rigavit pedes meos, et capillis suis tersit.
And he turned to the woman, and said to Simon, Seest thou this woman? I entered into thy house, thou gavest me no water for my feet: but she hath washed my feet with tears, and wiped [them] with the hairs of her head.
45 Osculum mihi non dedisti: haec autem ex quo intravit, non cessavit osculari pedes meos.
Thou gavest me no kiss: but this woman, since the time I came in, hath not ceased to kiss my feet.
46 Oleo caput meum non unxisti: haec autem unguento unxit pedes meos.
My head with oil thou didst not anoint: but this woman hath anointed my feet with ointment.
47 Propter quod dico tibi: Remittuntur ei peccata multa, quoniam dilexit multum. Cui autem minus dimittitur, minus diligit.
Wherefore I say to thee, Her sins, which are many, are forgiven; for she loved much: but to whom little is forgiven, [the same] loveth little.
48 Dixit autem ad illam: Remittuntur tibi peccata tua.
And he said to her, Thy sins are forgiven.
49 Et coeperunt qui simul accumbebant, dicere intra se: Quis est hic, qui etiam peccata dimittit?
And they that sat at table with him, began to say within themselves, Who is this that forgiveth sins also?
50 Dixit autem ad mulierem: Fides tua te salvam fecit: vade in pace.
And he said to the woman, Thy faith hath saved thee; go in peace.
