1 And having again entered into Capernaum, after some days it was heard that he was in a house.

2 And straightaway many were gathered together, so as to accommodate no more, not even near the door. And he spoke the word to them.

3 And they come bringing to him a paralyzed man, being taken by four men.

4 And not being able to come near to him because of the crowd, they uncovered the roof where he was. And when they had broken through, they let down the bed on which the paralyzed man lay.

5 And having seen their faith, Jesus says to the paralyzed man, Child, thy sins are forgiven thee.

6 But some of the scholars were sitting there, and deliberating in their hearts,

7 Why does this man speak blasphemies this way. Who can forgive sins but one, God?

8 And straightaway Jesus, having perceived in his spirit that they so deliberated within themselves, said to them, Why do ye deliberate these things in your hearts?

9 Which is easier, to say to the paralyzed man, Thy sins are forgiven thee, or to say, Arise, and take up thy bed and walk?

10 But that ye may know that the Son of man has authority on earth to forgive sins (he says to the paralyzed man),

11 I say to thee, Arise, and take up thy bed, and go to thy house.

12 And straightaway he arose, and having taken up the bed, he went forth before them all, so as for all to be amazed, and to glorify God, saying, We never saw it like this.

13 And he went forth again by the sea, and all the multitude resorted to him, and he taught them.

14 And as he passed by he saw Levi the son of Alphaeus sitting at the tax office. And he says to him, Follow thou me. And having risen, he followed him.

15 And it came to pass, while he was dining in his house, that many tax collectors and sinners were dining with Jesus and his disciples, for there were many, and they followed him.

16 And the scholars of the Pharisees, when they saw him eating with the tax collectors and sinners, they said to his disciples, Why is it that he eats and drinks with tax collectors and sinners?

17 And when Jesus heard it he says to them, Those who are strong have no need of a physician, but those faring badly. I came not to call the righteous, but sinners for repentance.

18 And John's disciples and those of the Pharisees were fasting. And they come and say to him, Why do John's disciples and those of the Pharisees fast, but the disciples with you do not fast?

19 And Jesus said to them, The sons of the wedding hall cannot fast while the bridegroom is with them. As long as they have the bridegroom with them, they cannot fast.

20 But the days will come when the bridegroom is taken away from them, and then they will they fast in those day.

21 And no man sews a new patch of cloth on an old garment, otherwise the patch of it pulls away, the new from the old, and a tear becomes worse.

22 And no man puts new wine into old wineskins, otherwise the new wine bursts the wineskins, and the wine is spilled, and the wineskins will be destroyed. But new wine must be put into fresh wineskins.

23 And it came to pass, that he was passing through the grain fields on the Sabbath day, and his disciples began to make a path while plucking the ears.

24 And the Pharisees said to him, Look, why are they doing what is not permitted on the Sabbath day?

25 And he said to them, Did ye never read what David did when he had need, and was hungry, he and those with him?

26 How he entered into the house of God under Abiathar the high priest, and ate the loaves of the presentation, which is not permitted to eat except for the priests. And he also gave to those who were with him?

27 And he said to them, The Sabbath came into being for sake of man, and not man for sake of the Sabbath.

28 So then the Son of man is lord even of the Sabbath.

1 After a feawe dayes he entred into Capernaum agayne and it was noysed that he was in a housse.

2 And anone many gadered to geder in so moche that now there was no roume to receave them: no not so moche as about the dore. And he preached the worde vnto them.

3 And there came vnto him that brought one sicke of the palsie borne of fower men.

4 And because they coulde not come nye vnto him for preace they vncovered ye rofe of the housse where he was. And when they had broken it ope they let doune ye beed where in ye sicke of the palsie laye.

5 When Iesus sawe their fayth he sayde to the sicke of the palsie sonne thy sinnes are forgeven the.

6 And ther were certayne of ye scribes sittinge there and reasoninge in their hertes:

7 how doeth this felowe so blaspheme? Who can forgeve synnes but God only?

8 And immediatly whe Iesus perceaved in his sprete yt they so reasoned in the selves he sayde vnto them: why thynke ye soche thinges in youre hertes?

9 Whether is it easyer to saye to ye sicke of ye palsie thy synnes are forgeven the or to saye aryse take vp thy beed and walke?

10 That ye maye knowe yt the sonne of man hath power in erth to forgeve synnes he spake vnto ye sicke of the palsie:

11 I saye vnto ye aryse and take vp thy beed and get ye hense into thyne awne housse.

12 And by and by he arose toke vp the beed and went forth before them all: in so moche that they were all amased and glorified God sayinge: we never sawe it on this fassion.

13 And he went agayne vnto the see and all the people resorted vnto him and he taught the.

14 And as Iesus passed by he sawe Levy ye sonne of Alphey syt at the receyte of custome and sayde vnto him: folowe me. And he arose and folowed him.

15 And it came to passe as Iesus sate at meate in his housse many publicans and synners sate at meate also with Iesus and his disciples. For there were many that folowed him.

16 And when the Scribes and Pharises sawe him eate with publicas and synnere they sayde vnto his disciples: how is it that he eateth and drynketh with publicas and synners?

17 When Iesus hearde yt he sayde vnto them. The whole have no nede of the phisicio but the sicke. I came not to call the rightwise but the synners to repentaunce.

18 And the disciples of Iohn and the Pharises dyd faste: and therfore came and sayde vnto him. Why do ye disciples of Iohn and of the Pharises faste and thy disciples fast not.

19 And Iesus sayde vnto them: can the chyldren of a weddinge faste while the brydgrome is wt them. As longe as they have the brydgrome with them they cannot faste.

20 But the dayes will come when the brydgrome shalbe taken from them and then shall they faste in those dayes. 21 Also no ma soweth a pece of newe cloth vnto an olde garmet for then taketh he awaye ye newe pece fro the olde and so is the rent worsse. 22 In lyke wyse no man poureth newe wyne into olde vessels: for yf he do the newe wyne breaketh the vessels and the wyne runneth out and the vessels are marred. But new wyne must be poured into new vessels.

23 And it chaunsed that he wet thorow ye corne feldes on the Saboth daye: and his disciples as they went on their waye beganne to plucke the eares of corne.

24 And the Pharises sayde vnto him: beholde why do they on the Saboth dayes yt which is not laufull?

25 And he sayde to them: have ye never rede what David dyd when he had nede and was anhogred bothe he and they that were with him?

26 How he went into the housse of God in the dayes of Abiathar ye hye preste and dyd eate ye halowed loves which is not laufull to eate but for ye prestes only: and gave also to the which were with him?

27 And he sayde to them: the Saboth daye was made for man and not man for the Saboth daye.

28 Wherfore the sonne of man is Lorde eve of the Saboth daye.
