1 A opět všel do Kafarnaum po několika dnech. I uslyšáno jest, že by doma byl.
2 A hned sešlo se jich množství, takže již nemohli ani ke dveřům. I mluvil jim slovo.
3 Tedy přijdou k němu někteří, nesouce šlakem poraženého, kterýžto ode čtyř nesen byl.
4 A když k němu nemohli pro zástupy, loupali střechu, kdež byl Ježíš, a probořivše půdu, spustili po provazích dolů ložce, na němž ležel šlakem poražený.
5 A vida Ježíš víru jejich, dí šlakem poraženému: Synu, odpouštějí se tobě hříchové tvoji.
6 A byli tu někteří z zákoníků, sedíce a myslíce v srdcích svých:
7 Co tento tak mluví rouhavě? Kdo můž odpustiti hříchy, jediné sám Bůh?
8 To hned poznav Ježíš duchem svým, že by tak přemyšlovali sami v sobě, řekl jim: Proč o tom přemyšlujete v srdcích svých?
9 Co jest snáze říci šlakem poraženému: Odpouštějí se tobě hříchové, čili říci: Vstaň a vezmi lože své a choď?
10 Ale abyste věděli, že Syn člověka má moc na zemi odpouštěti hříchy, dí šlakem poraženému:
11 Toběť pravím: Vstaň, a vezmi lože své, a jdi do domu svého.
12 I vstal hned, a vzav lože své přede všemi, odšel, takže se děsili všickni, a chválili Boha, řkouce: Nikdy jsme toho neviděli.
13 I vyšel opět k moři, a všecken zástup přicházel k němu, i učil je.
14 A pomíjeje Ježíš, uzřel Léví syna Alfeova, sedícího na cle. I dí jemu: Pojď za mnou. A on vstav, šel za ním.
15 I stalo se, když seděl za stolem v domu jeho, že i publikáni mnozí a hříšníci seděli spolu s Ježíšem a s učedlníky jeho; neb mnoho jich bylo, a šlo za ním.
16 Zákoníci pak a farizeové vidouce, že jedl s publikány a s hříšníky, řekli učedlníkům jeho: Což jest toho, že s publikány a hříšníky jí a pije Mistr váš?
17 To uslyšav Ježíš, dí jim: Nepotřebují zdraví lékaře, ale nemocní. Nepřišelť jsem volati spravedlivých, ale hříšných ku pokání.
18 Učedlníci pak Janovi a farizejští postívali se. I přišli a řekli jemu: Proč učedlníci Janovi a farizejští postí se, a tvoji učedlníci se nepostí?
19 I řekl jim Ježíš: Kterakž mohou synové Ženichovi postiti se, když jest s nimi Ženich? Dokavadž mají s sebou Ženicha, nemohouť se postiti.
20 Ale přijdouť dnové, když od nich odjat bude Ženich, a tehdáž se budou postiti v těch dnech.
21 Ano nižádný záplaty sukna nového nepřišívá k rouchu starému; jinak odtrhne ta záplata nová od starého ještě něco, i bývá větší díra.
22 A žádný nevlévá vína nového do nádob starých; jinak rozpučí nové víno nádoby, a tak víno se vyleje, a nádoby se pokazí. Ale víno nové má lito býti do nádob nových.
23 I stalo se, že šel Ježíš v sobotu skrze obilí, i počali učedlníci jeho jdouce vymínati klasy.
24 Tedy farizeové řekli jemu: Pohleď, coť činí učedlníci tvoji, čehož nesluší činiti v sobotu.
25 I řekl jim: Nikdy-liž jste nečtli, co učinil David, když nouze byla, a lačněl, on i ti, kteříž s ním byli?
26 Kterak všel do domu Božího za Abiatara nejvyššího kněze, a jedl chleby posvátné, (jichžto neslušelo jísti než samým kněžím,) a dal i těm, kteříž s ním byli?
27 I pravil jim: Sobota pro člověka učiněna jest, a ne člověk pro sobotu.
28 Protož Syn člověka jest pánem také i soboty.
1 And when he came into Capernaum again after some days, the news went about that he was in the house.
2 And a great number had come together, so that there was no longer room for them, no, not even about the door: and he gave them teaching.
3 And four men came to him with one on a bed who had no power of moving.
4 And when they were unable to get near him because of all the people, they got the roof uncovered where he was: and when it was broken up, they let down the bed on which the man was.
5 And Jesus, seeing their faith, said to him, Son, you have forgiveness for your sins.
6 But there were certain of the scribes seated there, and reasoning in their hearts,
7 Why does this man say such things? he has no respect for God: from whom does forgiveness come but from God only?
8 And Jesus, having knowledge in his spirit of their thoughts, said to them, Why are you reasoning about these things in your hearts?
9 Which is the simpler, to say to a man who is ill, You have forgiveness for your sins, or, Get up, take up your bed, and go?
10 But so that you may see that the Son of man has authority for the forgiveness of sins on earth, (he said to the man,)
11 I say to you, Get up, take up your bed, and go to your house.
12 And he got up, and straight away took up the bed and went out before them all, so that they were all full of wonder, and gave glory to God, saying, We have never seen anything like this.
13 And he went out again by the seaside; and all the people came to him, and he gave them teaching.
14 And when he went by, he saw Levi, the son of Alphaeus, seated at the place where taxes were taken, and he said to him, Come with me. And he got up, and went with him.
15 And it came about that he was seated at meat in his house, and a number of tax-farmers and sinners were at table with Jesus and his disciples: for there were a great number of them, and they came after him.
16 And the scribes of the Pharisees, when they saw that he was taking food with the tax-farmers and sinners, said to his disciples, Why does he take food and drink with such men?
17 And Jesus, hearing it, said to them, Those who are well have no need of a medical man, but those who are ill: I have come not to get the upright but sinners.
18 And John's disciples and the Pharisees were taking no food: and they came and said to him, Why do John's disciples and the disciples of the Pharisees go without food, but your disciples do not?
19 And Jesus said to them, Will the friends of a newly-married man go without food while he is with them? as long as they have him with them they will not go without food.
20 But the days will come when the husband will be taken away from them, and then they will go without food.
21 No man puts a bit of new cloth on an old coat: or the new, by pulling away from the old, makes a worse hole.
22 And no man puts new wine into old wine-skins: or the skins will be burst by the wine, and the wine and the skins will be wasted: but new wine has to be put into new wine-skins.
23 And it came about that on the Sabbath day he was going through the grain-fields; and while they were walking, his disciples took the heads of grain.
24 And the Pharisees said to him, Why are they doing what it is not right to do on the Sabbath?
25 And he said to them, Have you no knowledge of what David did, when he had need and was without food, he, and those who were with him?
26 How he went into the house of God when Abiathar was high priest, and took for food the holy bread, which only the priests may take, and gave it to those who were with him?
27 And he said to them, The Sabbath was made for man, and not man for the Sabbath;
28 So that the Son of man is lord even of the Sabbath.
