Jesús sana al siervo del centurión
7 Cuando terminó todas Sus palabras[a](A) al pueblo que le oía[b], (B)Jesús se fue a Capernaúm.
2 Y el siervo de cierto centurión, a quien este apreciaba mucho[c], estaba enfermo y a punto de morir. 3 Al oír hablar de Jesús, el centurión(C) envió a Él unos ancianos de los judíos, pidiendo que viniera y salvara[d] a su siervo. 4 Cuando ellos llegaron a Jesús, le rogaron con insistencia, diciendo: «El centurión es digno de que le concedas esto; 5 porque él ama a nuestro pueblo y fue él quien nos edificó la sinagoga».
6 Jesús iba con ellos, pero cuando ya no estaba lejos de la casa, el centurión envió a unos amigos, diciendo: «Señor, no te molestes más, porque no soy digno de que Tú entres bajo mi techo; 7 por eso ni siquiera me consideré digno de ir a Ti, tan solo di la[e] palabra y mi siervo[f] será sanado. 8 Pues yo también soy hombre puesto bajo autoridad, y tengo soldados bajo mis órdenes; y digo a este: “Ve”, y va; y a otro: “Ven”, y viene; y a mi siervo: “Haz esto”, y lo hace».
9 Al oír esto, Jesús se maravilló de él, y volviéndose, dijo a la multitud que lo seguía: «Les digo que ni aun en Israel he hallado una fe tan grande(D)». 10 Cuando los que habían sido enviados regresaron a la casa, encontraron sano al siervo.
Jesús resucita al hijo de la viuda de Naín
11 Aconteció poco después[g] que Jesús fue a una ciudad llamada Naín; y Sus discípulos iban con Él acompañados por[h] una gran multitud. 12 Y cuando se acercaba a la puerta de la ciudad, sacaban fuera a un muerto, hijo único de su madre, y ella era viuda; y un grupo numeroso de la ciudad estaba con ella. 13 Al verla, el Señor(E) tuvo compasión de ella, y le dijo: «No llores».
14 Y acercándose, tocó el féretro; y los que lo llevaban se detuvieron. Y Jesús dijo: «Joven, a ti te digo: ¡Levántate!». 15 El que había muerto se incorporó y comenzó a hablar, y Jesús se lo entregó a su madre. 16 El temor se apoderó de todos(F), y glorificaban a Dios(G), diciendo: «Un gran profeta(H) ha surgido entre nosotros». También decían: «Dios ha visitado a Su pueblo». 17 Este dicho que se decía de Él, se divulgó por toda Judea y por toda la región circunvecina(I).
Jesús y los discípulos de Juan
18 (J)Entonces los discípulos de Juan le informaron de todas estas cosas. 19 Y llamando Juan a dos[i] de sus discípulos, los envió a preguntar al Señor(K): «¿Eres Tú el que ha de venir, o esperamos a otro[j]?».
20 Cuando los hombres llegaron a Él, dijeron: «Juan el Bautista nos ha enviado para que te preguntáramos: “¿Eres Tú el que ha de venir, o esperamos a otro?”». 21 En esa misma hora curó a muchos de enfermedades(L), aflicciones(M) y malos espíritus, y a muchos ciegos les dio la vista. 22 Entonces Él les respondió: «Vayan y cuenten a Juan lo que han visto y oído: los ciegos reciben la vista, los cojos andan, los leprosos quedan limpios y los sordos oyen, los muertos son resucitados y a los pobres se les anuncia el evangelio(N). 23 Y bienaventurado es el que no se escandaliza de Mí».
Jesús habla de Juan el Bautista
24 Cuando los mensajeros de Juan se fueron, Jesús comenzó a hablar a las multitudes acerca de Juan: «¿Qué salieron a ver en el desierto? ¿Una caña sacudida por el viento? 25 Pero, ¿qué salieron a ver? ¿Un hombre vestido con ropas finas? Miren, los que visten con esplendor y viven en deleites están en los palacios de los reyes. 26 Pero, ¿qué salieron a ver? ¿Un profeta? Sí, les digo, y uno que es más que un profeta. 27 Este es aquel de quien está escrito:
“Mira, Yo envío Mi mensajero delante de Ti,
Quien preparará Tu camino delante de Ti(O) ”.
28 Les digo que entre los nacidos de mujer[k] , no hay nadie mayor que Juan; sin embargo, el más pequeño en el reino de Dios es mayor que él».
29 Al oír esto, todo el pueblo y los recaudadores de impuestos[l] reconocieron la justicia(P) de Dios[m], y fueron bautizados(Q) con el bautismo de Juan(R). 30 Pero los fariseos y los intérpretes de la ley[n](S) rechazaron los propósitos de Dios para con ellos, al no ser bautizados por Juan[o].
31 «¿A qué, entonces, compararé los hombres de esta generación, y a qué son semejantes? 32 Son semejantes a los muchachos que se sientan en la plaza y se llaman unos a otros, y dicen: “Les tocamos la flauta, y no bailaron; entonamos endechas, y no lloraron”. 33 Porque ha venido Juan el Bautista, que no come pan, ni bebe vino(T), y ustedes dicen: “Tiene un demonio”. 34 Ha venido el Hijo del Hombre, que come y bebe, y dicen: “Miren, un hombre glotón y bebedor de vino, amigo de recaudadores de impuestos y de pecadores”. 35 Pero[p]la sabiduría es justificada(U)por todos sus hijos».
Jesús perdona a una pecadora
36 Uno de los fariseos pidió a Jesús que comiera con él; y entrando Él en la casa del fariseo, se sentó[q] a la mesa. 37 Había en la ciudad una mujer que era pecadora, y cuando se enteró de que Jesús estaba sentado[r] a la mesa en casa del fariseo, trajo un frasco de alabastro con perfume(V); 38 y poniéndose detrás de Él a Sus pies, llorando, comenzó a regar Sus pies con lágrimas y los secaba con los cabellos de su cabeza, besaba Sus pies y los ungía con el perfume. 39 Pero al ver esto el fariseo que lo había invitado, dijo para sí[s]: «Si Este fuera un profeta[t](W), sabría quién y qué clase de mujer es la que lo está tocando, que es una pecadora».
40 Y Jesús le dijo*: «Simón, tengo algo que decirte». «Di, Maestro», le contestó. 41 «Cierto prestamista tenía dos deudores; uno le debía 500 denarios[u](X)y el otro cincuenta; 42 y no teniendo ellos con qué pagar(Y), perdonó generosamente a los dos. ¿Cuál de ellos, entonces, lo amará más?».
43 «Supongo que aquel a quien le perdonó más», respondió Simón. Y Jesús le dijo: «Has juzgado correctamente».
44 Y volviéndose hacia la mujer, le dijo a Simón: «¿Ves esta mujer? Yo entré a tu casa y no me diste agua para Mis pies(Z), pero ella ha regado Mis pies con sus lágrimas y los ha secado con sus cabellos. 45 No me diste beso(AA), pero ella, desde que entré, no ha cesado[v]de besar Mis pies. 46 No ungiste Mi cabeza con aceite(AB), pero ella ungió Mis pies con perfume. 47 Por lo cual te digo que sus pecados, que son muchos, han sido perdonados, porque amó mucho; pero a quien poco se le perdona, poco ama». 48 Entonces Jesús le dijo a la mujer: «Tus pecados han sido perdonados(AC)».
49 Los que estaban sentados[w] a la mesa con Él comenzaron a decir entre sí: «¿Quién es Este que hasta perdona pecados(AD)?». 50 Pero Jesús dijo a la mujer: «Tu fe te ha salvado(AE), vete en paz(AF)».

7 Now when he had ended all his sayings in the audience of the people, he entered into Capernaum.
2 And a certain centurion's servant, who was dear unto him, was sick, and ready to die.
3 And when he heard of Jesus, he sent unto him the elders of the Jews, beseeching him that he would come and heal his servant.
4 And when they came to Jesus, they besought him instantly, saying, That he was worthy for whom he should do this:
5 For he loveth our nation, and he hath built us a synagogue.
6 Then Jesus went with them. And when he was now not far from the house, the centurion sent friends to him, saying unto him, Lord, trouble not thyself: for I am not worthy that thou shouldest enter under my roof:
7 Wherefore neither thought I myself worthy to come unto thee: but say in a word, and my servant shall be healed.
8 For I also am a man set under authority, having under me soldiers, and I say unto one, Go, and he goeth; and to another, Come, and he cometh; and to my servant, Do this, and he doeth it.
9 When Jesus heard these things, he marvelled at him, and turned him about, and said unto the people that followed him, I say unto you, I have not found so great faith, no, not in Israel.
10 And they that were sent, returning to the house, found the servant whole that had been sick.
11 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 much people.
12 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 much people of the city was with her.
13 And when the Lord saw her, he had compassion on her, and said unto her, Weep not.
14 And he came and touched the bier: and they that bare him stood still. And he said, Young man, I say unto thee, Arise.
15 And he that was dead sat up, and began to speak. And he delivered him to his mother.
16 And there came a fear on all: and they glorified God, saying, That a great prophet is risen up among us; and, That God hath visited his people.
17 And this rumour of him went forth throughout all Judaea, and throughout all the region round about.
18 And the disciples of John shewed him of all these things.
19 And John calling unto him two of his disciples sent them to Jesus, saying, Art thou he that should come? or look we for another?
20 When the men were come unto him, they said, John Baptist hath sent us unto thee, saying, Art thou he that should come? or look we for another?
21 And in that same hour he cured many of their infirmities and plagues, and of evil spirits; and unto many that were blind he gave sight.
22 Then Jesus answering said unto them, Go your way, and tell John what things ye have seen and heard; how that the blind see, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, to the poor the gospel is preached.
23 And blessed is he, whosoever shall not be offended in me.
24 And when the messengers of John were departed, he began to speak unto the people concerning John, What went ye out into the wilderness for to see? A reed shaken with the wind?
25 But what went ye out for to see? A man clothed in soft raiment? Behold, they which are gorgeously apparelled, and live delicately, are in kings' courts.
26 But what went ye out for to see? A prophet? Yea, I say unto you, and much more than a prophet.
27 This is he, of whom it is written, Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, which shall prepare thy way before thee.
28 For I say unto 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 And all the people that heard him, and the publicans, justified God, being baptized with the baptism of John.
30 But the Pharisees and lawyers rejected the counsel of God against themselves, being not baptized of him.
31 And the Lord said, Whereunto then shall I liken the men of this generation? and to what are they like?
32 They are like unto children sitting in the marketplace, and calling one to another, and saying, We have piped unto you, and ye have not danced; we have mourned to you, and ye have not wept.
33 For John the Baptist came neither eating bread nor drinking wine; and ye say, He hath a devil.
34 The Son of man is come eating and drinking; and ye say, Behold a gluttonous man, and a winebibber, a friend of publicans and sinners!
35 But wisdom is justified of all her children.
36 And one of the Pharisees desired him that he would eat with him. And he went into the Pharisee's house, and sat down to meat.
37 And, behold, a woman in the city, which was a sinner, when she knew that Jesus sat at meat in the Pharisee's house, brought an alabaster box of ointment,
38 And stood at his feet behind him weeping, and began to wash his feet with tears, and did wipe them with the hairs of her head, and kissed his feet, and anointed them with the ointment.
39 Now when the Pharisee which had bidden him saw it, he spake 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 And Jesus answering said unto him, Simon, I have somewhat to say unto thee. And he saith, Master, say on.
41 There was a certain creditor which had two debtors: the one owed five hundred pence, and the other fifty.
42 And when they had nothing to pay, he frankly forgave them both. Tell me therefore, which of them will love him most?
43 Simon answered and said, I suppose that he, to whom he forgave most. And he said unto him, Thou hast rightly judged.
44 And he turned to the woman, and said unto Simon, Seest thou this woman? I entered into thine 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 Thou gavest me no kiss: but this woman since the time I came in hath not ceased to kiss my feet.
46 My head with oil thou didst not anoint: but this woman hath anointed my feet with ointment.
47 Wherefore I say unto thee, Her sins, which are many, are forgiven; for she loved much: but to whom little is forgiven, the same loveth little.
48 And he said unto her, Thy sins are forgiven.
49 And they that sat at meat with him began to say within themselves, Who is this that forgiveth sins also?
50 And he said to the woman, Thy faith hath saved thee; go in peace.

The Faith of the Centurion(A)
7 When Jesus had finished saying all this(B) to the people who were listening, he entered Capernaum. 2 There a centurion’s servant, whom his master valued highly, was sick and about to die. 3 The centurion heard of Jesus and sent some elders of the Jews to him, asking him to come and heal his servant. 4 When they came to Jesus, they pleaded earnestly with him, “This man deserves to have you do this, 5 because he loves our nation and has built our synagogue.” 6 So Jesus went with them.
He was not far from the house when the centurion sent friends to say to him: “Lord, don’t trouble yourself, for I do not deserve to have you come under my roof. 7 That is why I did not even consider myself worthy to come to you. But say the word, and my servant will be healed.(C) 8 For I myself am a man under authority, with soldiers under me. I tell this one, ‘Go,’ and he goes; and that one, ‘Come,’ and he comes. I say to my servant, ‘Do this,’ and he does it.”
9 When Jesus heard this, he was amazed at him, and turning to the crowd following him, he said, “I tell you, I have not found such great faith even in Israel.” 10 Then the men who had been sent returned to the house and found the servant well.
Jesus Raises a Widow’s Son(D)
11 Soon afterward, Jesus went to a town called Nain, and his disciples and a large crowd went along with him. 12 As he approached the town gate, a dead person was being carried out—the only son of his mother, and she was a widow. And a large crowd from the town was with her. 13 When the Lord(E) saw her, his heart went out to her and he said, “Don’t cry.”
14 Then he went up and touched the bier they were carrying him on, and the bearers stood still. He said, “Young man, I say to you, get up!”(F) 15 The dead man sat up and began to talk, and Jesus gave him back to his mother.
16 They were all filled with awe(G) and praised God.(H) “A great prophet(I) has appeared among us,” they said. “God has come to help his people.”(J) 17 This news about Jesus spread throughout Judea and the surrounding country.(K)
Jesus and John the Baptist(L)
18 John’s(M) disciples(N) told him about all these things. Calling two of them, 19 he sent them to the Lord to ask, “Are you the one who is to come, or should we expect someone else?”
20 When the men came to Jesus, they said, “John the Baptist sent us to you to ask, ‘Are you the one who is to come, or should we expect someone else?’”
21 At that very time Jesus cured many who had diseases, sicknesses(O) and evil spirits, and gave sight to many who were blind. 22 So he replied to the messengers, “Go back and report to John what you have seen and heard: The blind receive sight, the lame walk, those who have leprosy[a] are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, and the good news is proclaimed to the poor.(P) 23 Blessed is anyone who does not stumble on account of me.”
24 After John’s messengers left, Jesus began to speak to the crowd about John: “What did you go out into the wilderness to see? A reed swayed by the wind? 25 If not, what did you go out to see? A man dressed in fine clothes? No, those who wear expensive clothes and indulge in luxury are in palaces. 26 But what did you go out to see? A prophet?(Q) Yes, I tell you, and more than a prophet. 27 This is the one about whom it is written:
28 I tell you, among those born of women there is no one greater than John; yet the one who is least in the kingdom of God(S) is greater than he.”
29 (All the people, even the tax collectors, when they heard Jesus’ words, acknowledged that God’s way was right, because they had been baptized by John.(T) 30 But the Pharisees and the experts in the law(U) rejected God’s purpose for themselves, because they had not been baptized by John.)
31 Jesus went on to say, “To what, then, can I compare the people of this generation? What are they like? 32 They are like children sitting in the marketplace and calling out to each other:
“‘We played the pipe for you,
and you did not dance;
we sang a dirge,
and you did not cry.’
33 For John the Baptist came neither eating bread nor drinking wine,(V) and you say, ‘He has a demon.’ 34 The Son of Man came eating and drinking, and you say, ‘Here is a glutton and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners.’(W) 35 But wisdom is proved right by all her children.”
Jesus Anointed by a Sinful Woman(X)(Y)
36 When one of the Pharisees invited Jesus to have dinner with him, he went to the Pharisee’s house and reclined at the table. 37 A woman in that town who lived a sinful life learned that Jesus was eating at the Pharisee’s house, so she came there with an alabaster jar of perfume. 38 As she stood behind him at his feet weeping, she began to wet his feet with her tears. Then she wiped them with her hair, kissed them and poured perfume on them.
39 When the Pharisee who had invited him saw this, he said to himself, “If this man were a prophet,(Z) he would know who is touching him and what kind of woman she is—that she is a sinner.”
40 Jesus answered him, “Simon, I have something to tell you.”
“Tell me, teacher,” he said.
41 “Two people owed money to a certain moneylender. One owed him five hundred denarii,[c] and the other fifty. 42 Neither of them had the money to pay him back, so he forgave the debts of both. Now which of them will love him more?”
43 Simon replied, “I suppose the one who had the bigger debt forgiven.”
“You have judged correctly,” Jesus said.
44 Then he turned toward the woman and said to Simon, “Do you see this woman? I came into your house. You did not give me any water for my feet,(AA) but she wet my feet with her tears and wiped them with her hair. 45 You did not give me a kiss,(AB) but this woman, from the time I entered, has not stopped kissing my feet. 46 You did not put oil on my head,(AC) but she has poured perfume on my feet. 47 Therefore, I tell you, her many sins have been forgiven—as her great love has shown. But whoever has been forgiven little loves little.”
48 Then Jesus said to her, “Your sins are forgiven.”(AD)
49 The other guests began to say among themselves, “Who is this who even forgives sins?”
50 Jesus said to the woman, “Your faith has saved you;(AE) go in peace.”(AF)
