LU-7:1 Now when he had ended all his sayings in the audience of
the people, he
entered into Capernaum.
LU-7:2 And a certain centurion's servant, who was dear unto him,
was sick, and
ready to die.
LU-7:3 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.
LU-7:4 And when they came to Jesus, they besought him instantly,
saying, That
he was worthy for whom he should do this:
LU-7:5 For he loveth our nation, and he hath built us a
synagogue.
LU-7:6 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:
LU-7:7 Wherefore neither thought I myself worthy to come unto
thee: but say in
a word, and my servant shall be healed.
LU-7:8 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].
LU-7:9 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.
LU-7:10 And they that were sent, returning to the house, found
the servant
whole that had been sick.
LU-7:11 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.
LU-7:12 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.
LU-7:13 And when the Lord saw her, he had compassion on her,
and said unto
her, Weep not.
LU-7:14 And he came and touched the bier: and they that bare
[him] stood
still. And he said, Young man, I say unto thee, Arise.
LU-7:15 And he that was dead sat up, and began to speak. And he
delivered him
to his mother.
LU-7:16 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.
LU-7:17 And this rumour of him went forth throughout all Judaea,
and
throughout all the region round about.
LU-7:18 And the disciples of John showed him of all these
things.
LU-7:19 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?
LU-7:20 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?
LU-7:21 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.
LU-7:22 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.
LU-7:23 And blessed is [he], whosoever shall not be offended in
me.
LU-7:24 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?
LU-7:25 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.
LU-7:26 But what went ye out for to see? A prophet? Yea, I say
unto you, and
much more than a prophet.
LU-7:27 This is [he], of whom it is written, Behold, I send my
messenger
before thy face, which shall prepare thy way before thee.
LU-7:28 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.
LU-7:29 And all the people that heard [him], and the publicans,
justified God,
being baptized with the baptism of John.
LU-7:30 But the Pharisees and lawyers rejected the counsel of
God against
themselves, being not baptized of him.
LU-7:31 And the Lord said, Whereunto then shall I liken the men
of this
generation? and to what are they like?
LU-7:32 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.
LU-7:33 For John the Baptist came neither eating bread nor
drinking wine; and
ye say, He hath a devil.
LU-7:34 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!
LU-7:35 But wisdom is justified of all her children.
LU-7:36 And one of the Pharisees desired him that he would eat
