1Et ascendens in naviculam,And climbing into a boat,transfretavit,he crossed the sea,et venit in civitatem suam.and he arrived at his own city.

2Et ecce offerebant ei paralyticum jacentem in lecto.And behold, they brought to him a paralytic, lying on a bed.Et videns Jesus fidem illorum,And Jesus, seeing their faith,dixit paralytico:said to the paralytic,Confide fili,“Be strengthened in faith,remittuntur tibi peccata tua.son; your sins are forgiven you.”

3Et ecce quidam de scribis dixerunt intra se:And behold, some of the scribes said within themselves,Hic blasphemat.“He is blaspheming.”

4Et cum vidisset Jesus cogitationes eorum,And when Jesus had perceived their thoughts,dixit:he said:Ut quid cogitatis mala in cordibus vestris?“Why do you think such evil in your hearts?

5Quid est facilius dicere:Which is easier to say,Dimittuntur tibi peccata tua:‘Your sins are forgiven you,’an dicere:or to say,Surge,‘Rise upet ambula?and walk?’

6Ut autem sciatis,But,quia Filius hominis habet potestatem in terra dimittendi peccata,so that you may know that the Son of man has authority on earth to forgive sins,”tunc ait paralytico:he then said to the paralytic,Surge,“Rise up,tolle lectum tuum,take up your bed,et vade in domum tuam.and go into your house.”

7Et surrexit,And he aroseet abiit in domum suam.and went into his house.

8Videntes autem turbæ timuerunt,Then the crowd, seeing this, was frightened,et glorificaverunt Deum,and they glorified God,qui dedit potestatem talem hominibus.who gave such power to men.

9Et,And when Jesus passed on from there,cum transiret inde Jesus,he saw,vidit hominem sedentem in telonio,sitting at the tax office,Matthæum nomine.a man named Matthew.Et ait illi:And he said to him,Sequere me.“Follow me.”Et surgens,And rising up,secutus est eum.he followed him.

10Et factum est,And it happened that,discumbente eo in domo,as he was sitting down to eat in the house,ecce multi publicani et peccatores venientes,behold,discumbebant cum Jesu,many tax collectors and sinners arrived,et discipulis ejus.and they sat down to eat with Jesus and his disciples.

11Et videntes pharisæi,And the Pharisees,dicebant discipulis ejus:seeing this,Quare cum publicanissaid to his disciples,et peccatoribus manducat magister vester?“Why does your Teacher eat with tax collectors and sinners?”

12At Jesus audiens,But Jesus, hearing this, said:ait: Non est opus valentibus medicus,“It is not those who are healthy who are in need of a physician,sed male habentibus.but those who have maladies.

13Euntes autem discite quid est:So then,Misericordiam volo,go out and learn what this means:et non sacrificium.‘I desire mercy and not sacrifice.’Non enim veni vocare justos,For I have not come to call the just,sed peccatores.but sinners.”

14Tunc accesserunt ad eum discipuli Joannis,Then the disciples of John drew near to him,dicentes:saying,Quare nos, et pharisæi, jejunamus frequenter:“Why do we and the Pharisees fast frequently,discipuli autem tui non jejunant?but your disciples do not fast?”

15Et ait illis Jesus:And Jesus said to them:Numquid possunt filii sponsi lugere,“How can the sons of the groom mourn,quamdiu cum illis est sponsus?while the groom is still with them?Venient autem dies cum auferetur ab eis sponsus:But the days will arrive when the groom will be taken away from them.et tunc jejunabunt.And then they shall fast.

16Nemo autem immittit commissuram panni rudis in vestimentum vetus:For no one would sew a patch of new cloth onto an old garment.tollit enim plenitudinem ejus a vestimento,For it pulls its fullness away from the garment,et pejor scissura fit.and the tear is made worse.

17Neque mittunt vinum novum in utres veteres:Neither do they pour new wine into old wineskins.alioquin rumpuntur utres,Otherwise, the wineskins rupture,et vinum effunditur,and the wine pours out,et utres pereunt.and the wineskins are destroyed.Sed vinum novum in utres novos mittunt:Instead, they pour new wine into new wineskins.et ambo conservantur.And so, both are preserved.”

18Hæc illo loquente ad eos,As he was speaking these things to them,ecce princeps unus accessit, et adorabat eum,behold, a certain ruler approached and adored him,dicens:saying:Domine, filia mea modo defuncta est:“Lord, my daughter has recently passed away.sed veni, impone manum tuam super eam,But come and impose your hand upon her,et vivet.and she will live.”

19Et surgens Jesus,And Jesus, rising up,sequebatur eum,followed him,et discipuli ejus.with his disciples.

20Et ecce mulier,And behold,quæ sanguinis fluxum patiebatur duodecim annis,a woman,accessit retro,who had suffered from a flow of blood for twelve years,et tetigit fimbriam vestimenti ejus.approached from behind and touched the hem of his garment.

21Dicebat enim intra se:For she said within herself,Si tetigero tantum vestimentum ejus,“If I will touch even his garment,salva ero.I shall be saved.”

22At Jesus conversus,But Jesus,et videns eam,turning and seeing her,dixit:said:Confide,“Be strengthened in faith,filia,daughter;fides tua te salvam fecit.your faith has made you well.”Et salva facta est mulier ex illa hora.And the woman was made well from that hour.

23Et cum venisset Jesus in domum principis,And when Jesus had arrived in the house of the ruler,et vidisset tibicines et turbam tumultuantem,and he had seen the musiciansdicebat:and the tumultuous crowd,

24Recedite:he said,non est enim mortua puella,“Depart. For the girl is not dead,sed dormit.but asleep.”Et deridebant eum.And they derided him.

25Et cum ejecta esset turba,And when the crowd had been sent away,intravit:he entered.et tenuit manum ejus,And he took her by the hand.et surrexit puella.And the girl rose up.

26Et exiit fama hæc in universam terram illam.And the news of this went out to that entire land.

27Et transeunte inde Jesu,And as Jesus passed from there,secuti sunt eum duo cæci,two blind men followed him,clamantes,crying outet dicentes:and saying,Miserere nostri,“Take pity on us,fili David.Son of David.”

28Cum autem venisset domum,And when he had arrived at the house,accesserunt ad eum cæci.the blind men approached him.Et dicit eis Jesus:And Jesus said to them,Creditis quia hoc possum facere vobis?“Do you trust that I am able to do this for you?”Dicunt ei:They say to him,Utique,“Certainly,Domine.Lord.”

29Tunc tetigit oculos eorum,Then he touched their eyes,dicens:saying,Secundum fidem vestram,“According to your faith,fiat vobis.so let it be done for you.”

30Et aperti sunt oculi eorum:And their eyes were opened.et comminatus est illis Jesus,And Jesus warned them,dicens:saying,Videte ne quis sciat.“See to it that no one knows of this.”

31Illi autem exeuntes,But going out,diffamaverunt eum in tota terra illa.they spread the news of it to all that land.

32Egressis autem illis,Then, when they had departed,ecce obtulerunt ei hominem mutum,behold, they brought him a man who was mute,dæmonium habentem.having a demon.

33Et ejecto dæmonio,And after the demon was cast out,locutus est mutus,the mute man spoke.et miratæ sunt turbæ,And the crowds wondered,dicentes:saying,Numquam apparuit sic in Israël.“Never has anything like this been seen in Israel.”

34Pharisæi autem dicebant:But the Pharisees said,In principe dæmoniorum ejicit dæmones.“By the prince of demons does he cast out demons.”

35Et circuibat Jesus omnes civitates,And Jesus traveled throughout all of the citieset castella,and towns,docens in synagogis eorum,teaching in their synagogues,et prædicans Evangelium regni,and preaching the Gospel of the kingdom,et curans omnem languorem,and healing every illnesset omnem infirmitatem.and every infirmity.

36Videns autem turbas,Then, seeing the multitudes,misertus est eis:he had compassion on them,quia erant vexati, et jacentes sicut oves non habentes pastorem.because they were distressed and were reclining, like sheep without a shepherd.

37Tunc dicit discipulis suis:Then he said to his disciples:Messis quidem multa,“The harvest indeed is great,operarii autem pauci.but the laborers are few.

38Rogate ergo Dominum messis,Therefore, petition the Lord of the harvest,ut mittat operarios in messem suam.so that he may sent out laborers to his harvest.”
