\subsection{Luke 7}
\subsubsection{Healing the Centurion's Slave}
\VS{1} When he had fulfilled all his words to the hearing of the crowd, he went to
Capernaum.
\VS{2} Now [a] certain slave of [a] centurion having [it] evil-ly was
[about] to come to the end, who was to him honored.
\VS{3} So having heard concerning Jesus he sent to him elders of the Jews,
asking him in order that having come he should save his slave.
\VS{4} So those having arrived to
Jesus were calling upon him earnestly, saying that: He is worthy to whom
this [thing] should be granted,
\VS{5} for he agape-loves our nation and he built
for us the synagogue.
\VS{6} So Jesus went with them. Now when he was
already not far from the house, the centurion sent friends saying: Lord, be
not troubling, for I am not befitting that you should come under my roof,
\VS{7} neither am I worthy [that] I come to you, but say [the] word, and my child be healed\fnImperative{}.
\VS{8} For I also am [a] man designated by
authority, having under myself soldiers, and I say to this [one], Go, and he
goes, and to another, Be coming, and he comes, and to my slave, Do this, and
he does [it].
\VS{9} But when Jesus heard these [things] he marveled at him, and having
turned to the crowd following him he said: Truly I say to you, not even in
Israel have I found such faith.
\VS{10} And having returned to the house the
[ones] having been sent found the slave being healthy.
\subsubsection{Raising a Widow's Son}
\VS{11} And it next came to pass he went to the city being called Nain, and
his disciples and [a] great crowd went with him.
\VS{12} So he drew near to the
gate of the city, and behold [the] only-born\fnMonogenes{} son to his mother was carried
out having died, and she was [a] widow, and [a] befitting crowd from the city was
with her.
\VS{13} And seeing her the Lord had compassion on her and said to
her: Be not weeping.
\VS{14} And having come he grasped the coffin, so those
bearing [it] stood, and he said: Young man, to you I say: be raised.
\VS{15} And
the dead [one] sat up, and began to be speaking, and he gave him to his mother.
\VS{16} And fear took [them] all, and they were glorifying God saying that: [a] great
prophet has arisen among us, and that God had looked to his people.
\VS{17} And this word went out in all Judea and all the surrounding regions
concerning him.
\subsubsection{Jesus and John the Baptist}
\VS{18} And his disciples reported to John concerning all these [things]. And John
having called upon [a] certain two of his disciples
\VS{19} sent [them] to the Lord
saying: Are you the coming [one], or do we expect another?
\VS{20} Now having
arrived to him the men said: John the baptist sent us to you saying: Are you
the coming [one], or do we expect another?
\VS{21} In that hour he healed many from diseases and torments and
wicked\fnPoneros{} spirits, and to many blind he graced to be seeing.
\VS{22} And answering he said to them: Having gone report to
John what you saw and heard: Blind see, lame walk, lepers are cleansed, and
deaf hear, dead are raised, poor are preached to,
\VS{23} and blessed is he who is not stumbled in me.
\VS{24} Now when the messengers of John had
returned he began to be saying to the crowd concerning John: What did you
come out to the wilderness to behold? [a] reed being shaken by the wind?
\VS{25} But what did you come out to see? [a] man dressed in soft garments?
Behold those in splendid and luxurious apparel are in the palaces.
\VS{26}
But what did you come out to see? [a] prophet? Yes, I say to you, and more than
[a] prophet.
\VS{27} This is he concerning whom it is written\footnote{Mal.3:1}:
\begin{verse}
Behold I send my messenger before your face \\
Who will prepare your way before you.
\end{verse}
\VS{28} I say to you, none born of women is greater than John, but the least
in the kingdom of God is greater than he.
\VS{29} And all the people having
heard and the tax gatherers justified God, having been baptized in John's
baptism.
\VS{30} But the Pharisees and the lawyers have set aside the
intention of God in themselves, not having been baptized by him.
\VS{31} To
what therefore will I liken the men of this generation, and to what are they
like?
\VS{32} They are like children sitting in the market and they call to
each other saying:
\begin{verse}
We piped for you and you did not dance, \\
We mourned and you did not weep.
\end{verse}
\VS{33} For John the baptist is come not eating loaves nor drinking wine,
and you say: He has [a] demon.
\VS{34} The son of man is come eating and drinking, and you say:
Behold [this] man [is a] glutton and [a] wino, friend of tax gatherers and sinners.
\VS{35} And wisdom is justified by all her children.
\subsubsection{Jesus's Anointing}
\VS{36} Now one of the Pharisees was asking him that he eat with him.
And having entered into the house of the Pharisee he sat at table.
\VS{37} And behold there was in the city [a] certain sinner woman,
and having known that he dined in the house of the Pharisee, having brought [an]
alabaster flask of perfume
\VS{38} and having stood behind by his feet weeping, with the tears
she began to rain upon his feet, and with the hairs of her head she was
wiping [them] off, and was kissing his feet and anointing [them] with perfume.
\VS{39}
Now when the Pharisee who invited him saw he said in himself saying: If this
[one] was [a] prophet, he would have known who and what sort of woman who handles
him, that she is [a] sinner.
\VS{40} And answering Jesus said to him: Simon, I
have something to say to you. But he [said]: Teacher, speak, tell.
\VS{41} There
were two who owed something to [a] moneylender. The [one] owed five hundred denarii,
the other fifty.
\VS{42} They not having [it] he gave them both grace. Who of
them therefore will agape-love him more?
\VS{43} Answering, Simon said: I
assume that to whom he gave the greater grace. So he said to him: You have
answered rightly.
\VS{44} And having turned to the woman he said to Simon:
Do you see this woman? I entered into your house, [and] water for me upon [my] feet
is not given; but she with tears rained upon my feet and with her hair wiped
them off.
\VS{45} You have not given me [a] kiss, but she from when I came in
was not ceasing to be kissing my feet.
\VS{46} You have not anointed my head
with oil, but she with perfume has anointed my feet,
\VS{47} for the sake of
which, I say to you, her many sins are forgiven, because she agape-loved
much. For to whom is forgiven little, agape-loves little.
\VS{48} So he said
to her: Your sins are forgiven.
\VS{49} And those dining with him began to
be saying among themselves: Who is this, who also forgives sins?
\VS{50} But
he said to the woman: Your faith has saved you. Be going in peace.
