\subsection{\Matthew 9}
|
|
\subsubsection{Healing and Forgiving a Paralytic}
|
|
\VS{1} And having stepped into the boat, he crossed over and came to his own city.
|
|
\VS{2} And behold they were bringing to him [a] paralytic lying on [a] bed.
|
|
And \Iesous having seen their trust\fnPistis{} he said to the paralytic:
|
|
Be taking courage, child, your sins are forgiven you.
|
|
\VS{3} And behold some of the scribes said among themselves:
|
|
This [man] slanders [God].
|
|
\VS{4} And \Iesous having known their thoughts said:
|
|
For what reason do you think wicked\fnPoneros{} [things] in your hearts?
|
|
\VS{5} For which is easier, to say: Your sins are forgiven, or to say: Be rising and be walking?
|
|
\VS{6} But that you may see that the Son of Humanity\fnAnthropos{} has
|
|
authority on the earth to be forgiving sins --- then he says to the paralytic:
|
|
Be rising, carry your bed and be going to your own house.
|
|
\VS{7} And having arisen, he departed to his own house.
|
|
\VS{8} And having seen [this], the crowd was afraid%
|
|
\footnote{``afraid'' \sinaiticus{}BDW \vulgate{} \hesychian{}; ``astonished'' \koine{} }
|
|
and glorified God who gave such authority to men.
|
|
|
|
\subsubsection{The Call of \Matthew; Eating with Sinners}
|
|
\VS{9} And proceeding from there \Iesous saw [a] man sitting at [a] tax-booth\fnTaxCollector{},
|
|
called \Matthew, and he says to him: Be following me.
|
|
And having stood up, he followed him.
|
|
\VS{10} And it came to pass when he was seated at table in the house that, behold,
|
|
many tax-collectors and sinners came and sat down at table with \Iesous and his disciples.
|
|
\VS{11} And the Pharisees having seen this were saying to his disciples:
|
|
Why does your teacher eat with tax-collectors and sinners?
|
|
\VS{12} But having heard this he said:
|
|
The healthy have no need of [a] physician, rather those having [it] badly.
|
|
\VS{13} But go and learn what it means\footnote{Hos.6:6}:
|
|
|
|
\begin{verse}
|
|
I desire mercy and not [temple] sacrifice\fnThusia{}.
|
|
\end{verse}
|
|
|
|
For I did not come to call [the] just, but sinners.
|
|
|
|
\subsubsection{The Superiority of the New}
|
|
\VS{14} Then the disciples of \John come to him saying:
|
|
Why do we and the Pharisees fast but your disciples do not fast?
|
|
\VS{15} And \Iesous said to them:
|
|
Can the sons of the bridegroom mourn as long as the groom is with them?
|
|
But the day will come when the groom will be taken away from them, and then they will fast.
|
|
\VS{16} For no one puts [a] piece of new cloth on [an] old garment,
|
|
for that which fills it up will take from it, and the tear will become worse.
|
|
\VS{17} No one puts new wine into old skins, lest the skins be burst,
|
|
and the wine run out and the skins be ruined.
|
|
Rather they put new wine into new skins and both will be preserved.
|
|
|
|
\subsubsection{Restoration and Healing}
|
|
\VS{18} [While] he was saying these [things] behold [a] ruler coming to him kneels before him saying:
|
|
My daughter even now has come to the end.
|
|
But come and lay your hand upon her, and she will zoe-live\fnZoe{}.
|
|
\VS{19} And having arisen, \Iesous and his disciples followed him.
|
|
\VS{20} And behold [a] woman having [a] discharge of blood for twelve years came after him
|
|
[and] touched the hem of his robe.
|
|
\VS{21} For she was saying in herself: If only I grasp his robe, I will be saved.
|
|
\VS{22} But \Iesous having turned and seen her said:
|
|
Be taking courage, daughter, your belief has made you whole.
|
|
And the woman was made whole from that hour.
|
|
\VS{23} And \Iesous having come to the ruler's house and having seen the flute players
|
|
and the crowd making an uproar,
|
|
\VS{24} he was saying: Be withdrawing, for the girl is not dead but sleeps.
|
|
And they were laughing at him.
|
|
\VS{25} Now when the crowd was thrown out, having gone in,
|
|
he took hold of her hand, and the girl arose.
|
|
\VS{26} And this report went out into all that land.
|
|
|
|
\subsubsection{Healing the Blind and Mute}
|
|
\VS{27} And when \Iesous went out from there two blind men followed him crying out and saying:
|
|
Have mercy on us, son of \David.
|
|
\VS{28} So when he entered into the house, the blind men came in to him,
|
|
and \Iesous says to them:
|
|
Do you trust that I am able to do this? They say to him, Yes Lord.
|
|
|
|
\VS{29} Then he touched their eyes saying:
|
|
According to your belief be it to you.
|
|
\VS{30} And their eyes were opened. And he strictly-charged them saying:
|
|
See that no one knows of this.
|
|
\VS{31} But having gone out they made it known to all that land.
|
|
|
|
\VS{32} Now when he had gone out, behold they brought to him [a] mute who was demon possessed.
|
|
\VS{33} And when the demon had been cast out the mute spoke.
|
|
And the crowd marveled saying: Never was it thus seen in \Israel.
|
|
\VS{34} But the Pharisees were saying:
|
|
By the ruler of demons he casts out demons.
|
|
|
|
\subsubsection{Workers for the Harvest}
|
|
\VS{35} And \Iesous went about all the cities and all the towns,
|
|
teaching in the synagogues and teaching the good news of the kingdom
|
|
and healing every disease and weakness.
|
|
\VS{36} And having seen the crowd he had compassion for them,
|
|
for they were troubled\footnote{``rent,'' ``mangled''} and thrown about as sheep having no shepherd.
|
|
\VS{37} Then he says to his disciples:
|
|
The harvest is great, but the workers are few.
|
|
\VS{38} Therefore ask the Lord of the harvest that he throw workers into his harvest.
