¹And when he completed all his sayings in the ears of the people, he went into Capernaum;

¹ܘܟܕ ܫܠܡ ܡܠܐ ܟܠܗܝܢ ܠܡܫܡܥܬܗ ܕܥܡܐ ܥܠ ܝܫܘܥ ܠܟܦܪܢܚܘܡ ܀

²and a certain centurion`s servant being ill, was about to die, who was much valued by him,

²ܥܒܕܗ ܕܝܢ ܕܩܢܛܪܘܢܐ ܚܕ ܥܒܝܕ ܗܘܐ ܒܝܫܐܝܬ ܐܝܢܐ ܕܝܩܝܪ ܗܘܐ ܥܠܘܗܝ ܘܩܪܝܒ ܗܘܐ ܠܡܡܬ ܀

³and having heard about Jesus, he sent unto him elders of the Jews, beseeching him, that having come he might thoroughly save his servant.

³ܘܫܡܥ ܥܠ ܝܫܘܥ ܘܫܕܪ ܠܘܬܗ ܩܫܝܫܐ ܕܝܗܘܕܝܐ ܘܒܥܐ ܗܘܐ ܡܢܗ ܐܝܟ ܕܢܐܬܐ ܢܚܐ ܠܥܒܕܗ ܀

⁴And they, having come near unto Jesus, were calling upon him earnestly, saying — `He is worthy to whom thou shalt do this,

⁴ܗܢܘܢ ܕܝܢ ܟܕ ܐܬܘ ܠܘܬ ܝܫܘܥ ܒܥܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܡܢܗ ܒܛܝܠܐܝܬ ܘܐܡܪܝܢ ܫܘܐ ܗܘ ܕܬܥܒܕ ܠܗ ܗܕܐ ܀

⁵for he doth love our nation, and the synagogue he did build to us.`

⁵ܪܚܡ ܓܝܪ ܠܥܡܢ ܘܐܦ ܒܝܬ ܟܢܘܫܬܐ ܗܘ ܒܢܐ ܠܢ ܀

⁶And Jesus was going on with them, and now when he is not far distant from the house the centurion sent unto him friends, saying to him, `Sir, be not troubled, for I am not worthy that under my roof thou mayest enter;

⁶ܝܫܘܥ ܕܝܢ ܐܙܠ ܗܘܐ ܥܡܗܘܢ ܟܕ ܕܝܢ ܠܐ ܤܓܝ ܪܚܝܩ ܡܢ ܒܝܬܐ ܫܕܪ ܠܘܬܗ ܩܢܛܪܘܢܐ ܪܚܡܘܗܝ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܡܪܝ ܠܐ ܬܥܡܠ ܠܐ ܓܝܪ ܫܘܐ ܐܢܐ ܕܬܥܘܠ ܬܚܝܬ ܡܛܠܠܝ ܀

⁷wherefore not even myself thought I worthy to come unto thee, but say in a word, and my lad shall be healed;

⁷ܡܛܠ ܗܘ ܐܢܐ ܠܐ ܫܘܝܬ ܕܠܘܬܟ ܐܬܐ ܐܠܐ ܐܡܪ ܒܡܠܬܐ ܘܢܬܐܤܐ ܛܠܝܝ ܀

⁸for I also am a man placed under authority, having under myself soldiers, and I say to this [one], Go, and he goeth; and to another, Be coming, and he cometh; and to my servant, Do this, and he doth [it].`

⁸ܐܦ ܐܢܐ ܓܝܪ ܓܒܪܐ ܐܢܐ ܕܡܫܥܒܕ ܐܢܐ ܬܚܝܬ ܫܘܠܛܢܐ ܘܐܝܬ ܬܚܝܬ ܐܝܕܝ ܐܤܛܪܛܝܘܛܐ ܘܐܡܪ ܐܢܐ ܠܗܢܐ ܕܙܠ ܘܐܙܠ ܘܠܐܚܪܢܐ ܕܬܐ ܘܐܬܐ ܘܠܥܒܕܝ ܥܒܕ ܗܕܐ ܘܥܒܕ ܀

⁹And having heard these things Jesus wondered at him, and having turned to the multitude following him, he said, `I say to you, not even in Israel so much faith did I find;`

⁹ܟܕ ܫܡܥ ܕܝܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܗܠܝܢ ܐܬܕܡܪ ܒܗ ܘܐܬܦܢܝ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܟܢܫܐ ܕܐܬܐ ܒܬܪܗ ܐܡܪ ܐܢܐ ܠܟܘܢ ܕܐܦ ܠܐ ܒܝܬ ܐܝܤܪܝܠ ܐܫܟܚܬ ܐܝܟ ܗܕܐ ܗܝܡܢܘܬܐ ܀

¹⁰and those sent, having turned back to the house, found the ailing servant in health.

¹⁰ܘܗܦܟܘ ܗܢܘܢ ܕܐܫܬܕܪܘ ܠܒܝܬܐ ܘܐܫܟܚܘ ܠܥܒܕܐ ܗܘ ܕܟܪܝܗ ܗܘܐ ܟܕ ܚܠܝܡ ܀

¹¹And it came to pass, on the morrow, he was going on to a city called Nain, and there were going with him many of his disciples, and a great multitude,

¹¹ܘܗܘܐ ܠܝܘܡܐ ܕܒܬܪܗ ܐܙܠ ܗܘܐ ܠܡܕܝܢܬܐ ܕܫܡܗ ܢܐܝܢ ܘܬܠܡܝܕܘܗܝ ܥܡܗ ܘܟܢܫܐ ܤܓܝܐܐ ܀

¹²and as he came nigh to the gate of the city, then, lo, one dead was being carried forth, an only son of his mother, and she a widow, and a great multitude of the city was with her.

¹²ܘܟܕ ܩܪܒ ܠܬܪܥܐ ܕܡܕܝܢܬܐ ܚܙܐ ܟܕ ܡܠܘܝܢ ܡܝܬܐ ܕܝܚܝܕܝܐ ܗܘܐ ܠܐܡܗ ܘܗܝ ܐܡܗ ܐܪܡܠܬܐ ܗܘܬ ܘܟܢܫܐ ܤܓܝܐܐ ܕܒܢܝ ܡܕܝܢܬܐ ܥܡܗ ܀

¹³And the Lord having seen her, was moved with compassion towards her, and said to her, `Be not weeping;`

¹³ܚܙܗ ܕܝܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܘܐܬܪܚܡ ܥܠܝܗ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܠܐ ܬܒܟܝܢ ܀

¹⁴and having come near, he touched the bier, and those bearing [it] stood still, and he said, `Young man, to thee I say, Arise;`

¹⁴ܘܐܙܠ ܩܪܒ ܠܥܪܤܐ ܘܗܢܘܢ ܕܫܩܝܠܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܠܗ ܩܡܘ ܘܐܡܪ ܥܠܝܡܐ ܠܟ ܐܡܪ ܐܢܐ ܩܘܡ ܀

¹⁵and the dead sat up, and began to speak, and he gave him to his mother;

¹⁵ܘܝܬܒ ܗܘ ܡܝܬܐ ܘܫܪܝ ܠܡܡܠܠܘ ܘܝܗܒܗ ܠܐܡܗ ܀

¹⁶and fear took hold of all, and they were glorifying God, saying — `A great prophet hath risen among us,` and — `God did look upon His people.`

¹⁶ܘܐܚܕܬ ܕܚܠܬܐ ܠܐܢܫܐ ܟܠܗܘܢ ܘܡܫܒܚܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܠܐܠܗܐ ܘܐܡܪܝܢ ܕܢܒܝܐ ܪܒܐ ܩܡ ܒܢ ܘܤܥܪ ܐܠܗܐ ܠܥܡܗ ܀

¹⁷And the account of this went forth in all Judea about him, and in all the region around.

¹⁷ܘܢܦܩܬ ܥܠܘܗܝ ܡܠܬܐ ܗܕܐ ܒܟܠܗ ܝܗܘܕ ܘܒܟܠܗ ܐܬܪܐ ܕܚܕܪܝܗܘܢ ܀

¹⁸And the disciples of John told him about all these things,

¹⁸ܘܐܫܬܥܝܘ ܠܝܘܚܢܢ ܬܠܡܝܕܘܗܝ ܗܠܝܢ ܟܠܗܝܢ ܀

¹⁹and John having called near a certain two of his disciples, sent unto Jesus, saying, `Art thou he who is coming, or for another do we look?`

¹⁹ܘܩܪܐ ܝܘܚܢܢ ܠܬܪܝܢ ܡܢ ܬܠܡܝܕܘܗܝ ܘܫܕܪ ܐܢܘܢ ܠܘܬ ܝܫܘܥ ܘܐܡܪ ܐܢܬ ܗܘ ܗܘ ܕܐܬܐ ܐܘ ܠܐܚܪܝܢ ܗܘ ܡܤܟܝܢ ܚܢܢ ܀

²⁰And having come near to him, the men said, `John the Baptist sent us unto thee, saying, Art thou he who is coming, or for another do we look?`

²⁰ܘܐܬܘ ܠܘܬ ܝܫܘܥ ܘܐܡܪܝܢ ܠܗ ܝܘܚܢܢ ܡܥܡܕܢܐ ܫܕܪܢ ܠܘܬܟ ܘܐܡܪ ܐܢܬ ܗܘ ܗܘ ܕܐܬܐ ܐܘ ܠܐܚܪܝܢ ܗܘ ܡܤܟܝܢ ܚܢܢ ܀

²¹And in that hour he cured many from sicknesses, and plagues, and evil spirits, and to many blind he granted sight.

²¹ܒܗ ܕܝܢ ܒܗܝ ܫܥܬܐ ܤܓܝܐܐ ܐܤܝ ܡܢ ܟܘܪܗܢܐ ܘܡܢ ܡܚܘܬܐ ܘܡܢ ܪܘܚܐ ܒܝܫܬܐ ܘܠܤܓܝܐܐ ܤܡܝܐ ܝܗܒ ܗܘܐ ܠܡܚܙܐ ܀

²²And Jesus answering said to them, `Having gone on, report to John what ye saw and heard, that blind men do see again, lame do walk, lepers are cleansed, deaf do hear, dead are raised, poor have good news proclaimed;

²²ܘܥܢܐ ܝܫܘܥ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܙܠܘ ܐܡܪܘ ܠܝܘܚܢܢ ܟܠܡܕܡ ܕܚܙܝܬܘܢ ܘܫܡܥܬܘܢ ܕܤܡܝܐ ܚܙܝܢ ܘܚܓܝܪܐ ܡܗܠܟܝܢ ܘܓܪܒܐ ܡܬܕܟܝܢ ܘܚܪܫܐ ܫܡܥܝܢ ܘܡܝܬܐ ܩܝܡܝܢ ܘܡܤܟܢܐ ܡܤܬܒܪܝܢ ܀

²³and happy is he whoever may not be stumbled in me.`

²³ܘܛܘܒܘܗܝ ܠܡܢ ܕܠܐ ܢܬܟܫܠ ܒܝ ܀

²⁴And the messengers of John having gone away, he began to say unto the multitudes concerning John: `What have ye gone forth to the wilderness to look on? a reed by the wind shaken?

²⁴ܟܕ ܕܝܢ ܐܙܠܘ ܬܠܡܝܕܘܗܝ ܕܝܘܚܢܢ ܫܪܝ ܠܡܐܡܪ ܠܟܢܫܐ ܥܠ ܝܘܚܢܢ ܡܢܐ ܢܦܩܬܘܢ ܠܚܘܪܒܐ ܠܡܚܙܐ ܩܢܝܐ ܕܡܢ ܪܘܚܐ ܡܬܬܙܝܥ ܀

²⁵but what have ye gone forth to see? a man in soft garments clothed? lo, they in splendid apparellings, and living in luxury, are in the houses of kings!

²⁵ܘܐܠܐ ܡܢܐ ܢܦܩܬܘܢ ܠܡܚܙܐ ܓܒܪܐ ܕܢܚܬܐ ܪܟܝܟܐ ܠܒܝܫ ܗܐ ܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܒܠܒܘܫܐ ܡܫܒܚܐ ܘܒܦܘܢܩܐ ܐܝܬܝܗܘܢ ܒܝܬ ܡܠܟܐ ܐܢܘܢ ܀

²⁶`But what have ye gone forth to see? a prophet? Yes, I say to you, and much more than a prophet:

²⁶ܘܐܠܐ ܡܢܐ ܢܦܩܬܘܢ ܠܡܚܙܐ ܢܒܝܐ ܐܝܢ ܐܡܪ ܐܢܐ ܠܟܘܢ ܘܝܬܝܪ ܡܢ ܢܒܝܐ ܀

²⁷this is he concerning whom it hath been written, Lo, I send my messenger before thy face, who shall prepare thy way before thee;

²⁷ܗܢܘ ܕܥܠܘܗܝ ܟܬܝܒ ܕܗܐ ܐܢܐ ܡܫܕܪ ܐܢܐ ܡܠܐܟܝ ܩܕܡ ܦܪܨܘܦܟ ܕܢܬܩܢ ܐܘܪܚܐ ܩܕܡܝܟ ܀

²⁸for I say to you, a greater prophet, among those born of women, than John the Baptist there is not; but the least in the reign of God is greater than he.`

²⁸ܐܡܪ ܐܢܐ ܠܟܘܢ ܕܠܝܬ ܢܒܝܐ ܒܝܠܝܕܝ ܢܫܐ ܕܪܒ ܡܢ ܝܘܚܢܢ ܡܥܡܕܢܐ ܙܥܘܪܐ ܕܝܢ ܒܡܠܟܘܬܐ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܪܒ ܗܘ ܡܢܗ ܀

²⁹And all the people having heard, and the tax-gatherers, declared God righteous, having been baptized with the baptism of John,

²⁹ܘܟܠܗ ܥܡܐ ܕܫܡܥܘ ܐܦ ܡܟܤܐ ܙܕܩܘ ܠܐܠܗܐ ܕܥܡܕܘ ܡܥܡܘܕܝܬܗ ܕܝܘܚܢܢ ܀

³⁰but the Pharisees, and the lawyers, the counsel of God did put away for themselves, not having been baptized by him.

³⁰ܦܪܝܫܐ ܕܝܢ ܘܤܦܪܐ ܛܠܡܘ ܒܢܦܫܗܘܢ ܨܒܝܢܐ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܕܠܐ ܐܬܥܡܕܘ ܡܢܗ ܀

³¹And the Lord said, `To what, then, shall I liken the men of this generation? and to what are they like?

³¹ܠܡܢ ܗܟܝܠ ܐܕܡܐ ܠܐܢܫܐ ܕܫܪܒܬܐ ܗܕܐ ܘܠܡܢ ܕܡܝܢ ܀

³²they are like to children, to those sitting in a market-place, and calling one to another, and saying, We piped to you, and ye did not dance, we mourned to you, and ye did not weep!

³²ܕܡܝܢ ܠܛܠܝܐ ܕܝܬܒܝܢ ܒܫܘܩܐ ܘܩܥܝܢ ܠܚܒܪܝܗܘܢ ܘܐܡܪܝܢ ܙܡܪܢ ܠܟܘܢ ܘܠܐ ܪܩܕܬܘܢ ܘܐܠܝܢ ܠܟܘܢ ܘܠܐ ܒܟܝܬܘܢ ܀

³³`For John the Baptist came neither eating bread nor drinking wine, and ye say, He hath a demon;

³³ܐܬܐ ܓܝܪ ܝܘܚܢܢ ܡܥܡܕܢܐ ܠܐ ܐܟܠ ܠܚܡܐ ܘܠܐ ܫܬܐ ܚܡܪܐ ܘܐܡܪܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܫܐܕܐ ܐܝܬ ܒܗ ܀

³⁴the Son of Man came eating and drinking, and ye say, Lo, a man, a glutton, and a wine drinker, a friend of tax-gatherers and sinners;

³⁴ܐܬܐ ܒܪܗ ܕܐܢܫܐ ܐܟܠ ܘܫܬܐ ܘܐܡܪܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܗܐ ܓܒܪܐ ܐܟܘܠܐ ܘܫܬܐ ܚܡܪܐ ܘܪܚܡܐ ܕܡܟܤܐ ܘܕܚܛܝܐ ܀

³⁵and the wisdom was justified from all her children.`

³⁵ܘܐܙܕܕܩܬ ܚܟܡܬܐ ܡܢ ܟܠܗܘܢ ܒܢܝܗ ܀

³⁶And a certain one of the Pharisees was asking him that he might eat with him, and having gone into the house of the Pharisee he reclined (at meat),

³⁶ܐܬܐ ܕܝܢ ܒܥܐ ܡܢܗ ܚܕ ܡܢ ܦܪܝܫܐ ܕܢܠܥܤ ܥܡܗ ܘܥܠ ܠܒܝܬܗ ܕܦܪܝܫܐ ܗܘ ܘܐܤܬܡܟ ܀

³⁷and lo, a woman in the city, who was a sinner, having known that he reclineth (at meat) in the house of the Pharisee, having provided an alabaster box of ointment,

³⁷ܘܐܢܬܬܐ ܚܛܝܬܐ ܐܝܬ ܗܘܬ ܒܡܕܝܢܬܐ ܗܝ ܘܟܕ ܝܕܥܬ ܕܒܒܝܬܗ ܕܦܪܝܫܐ ܗܘ ܤܡܝܟ ܢܤܒܬ ܫܛܝܦܬܐ ܕܒܤܡܐ ܀

³⁸and having stood behind, beside his feet, weeping, she began to wet his feet with the tears, and with the hairs of her head she was wiping, and was kissing his feet, and was anointing with the ointment.

³⁸ܘܩܡܬ ܒܤܬܪܗ ܠܘܬ ܪܓܠܘܗܝ ܘܒܟܝܐ ܗܘܬ ܘܫܪܝܬ ܒܕܡܥܝܗ ܡܨܒܥܐ ܪܓܠܘܗܝ ܘܒܤܥܪܐ ܕܪܫܗ ܡܫܘܝܢ ܠܗܝܢ ܘܡܢܫܩܐ ܗܘܬ ܪܓܠܘܗܝ ܘܡܫܚܐ ܒܤܡܐ ܀

³⁹And the Pharisee who did call him, having seen, spake within himself, saying, `This one, if he were a prophet, would have known who and of what kind [is] the woman who doth touch him, that she is a sinner.`

³⁹ܟܕ ܚܙܐ ܕܝܢ ܦܪܝܫܐ ܗܘ ܕܩܪܝܗܝ ܐܬܚܫܒ ܒܢܦܫܗ ܘܐܡܪ ܗܢܐ ܐܠܘ ܢܒܝܐ ܗܘܐ ܝܕܥ ܗܘܐ ܡܢ ܗܝ ܘܡܐ ܛܒܗ ܕܚܛܝܬܐ ܗܝ ܐܢܬܬܐ ܗܝ ܕܩܪܒܬ ܠܗ ܀

⁴⁰And Jesus answering said unto him, `Simon, I have something to say to thee;` and he saith, `Teacher, say on.`

⁴⁰ܥܢܐ ܕܝܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܫܡܥܘܢ ܡܕܡ ܐܝܬ ܠܝ ܕܐܡܪ ܠܟ ܗܘ ܕܝܢ ܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܐܡܪ ܪܒܝ ܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܝܫܘܥ ܀

⁴¹`Two debtors were to a certain creditor; the one was owing five hundred denaries, and the other fifty;

⁴¹ܬܪܝܢ ܚܝܒܐ ܐܝܬ ܗܘܘ ܠܚܕ ܡܪܐ ܚܘܒܐ ܚܕ ܚܝܒ ܗܘܐ ܕܝܢܪܐ ܚܡܫܡܐܐ ܘܐܚܪܢܐ ܕܝܢܪܐ ܚܡܫܝܢ ܀

⁴²and they not having [wherewith] to give back, he forgave both; which then of them, say thou, will love him more?`

⁴²ܘܕܠܝܬ ܗܘܐ ܠܗܘܢ ܠܡܦܪܥ ܠܬܪܝܗܘܢ ܫܒܩ ܐܝܢܐ ܗܟܝܠ ܡܢܗܘܢ ܝܬܝܪ ܢܚܒܝܘܗܝ ܀

⁴³And Simon answering said, `I suppose that to whom he forgave the more;` and he said to him, `Rightly thou didst judge.`

⁴³ܥܢܐ ܫܡܥܘܢ ܘܐܡܪ ܤܒܪ ܐܢܐ ܕܗܘ ܕܐܫܬܒܩ ܠܗ ܤܓܝ ܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܝܫܘܥ ܬܪܝܨܐܝܬ ܕܢܬ ܀

⁴⁴And having turned unto the woman, he said to Simon, `Seest thou this woman? I entered into thy house; water for my feet thou didst not give, but this woman with tears did wet my feet, and with the hairs of her head did wipe;

⁴⁴ܘܐܬܦܢܝ ܠܘܬ ܗܝ ܐܢܬܬܐ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܫܡܥܘܢ ܚܙܐ ܐܢܬ ܐܢܬܬܐ ܗܕܐ ܠܒܝܬܟ ܥܠܬ ܡܝܐ ܠܪܓܠܝ ܠܐ ܝܗܒܬ ܗܕܐ ܕܝܢ ܒܕܡܥܝܗ ܪܓܠܝ ܨܒܥܬ ܘܒܤܥܪܗ ܫܘܝܬ ܐܢܝܢ ܀

⁴⁵a kiss to me thou didst not give, but this woman, from what [time] I came in, did not cease kissing my feet;

⁴⁵ܐܢܬ ܠܐ ܢܫܩܬܢܝ ܗܕܐ ܕܝܢ ܗܐ ܡܢ ܕܥܠܬ ܠܐ ܫܠܝܬ ܪܓܠܝ ܠܡܢܫܩܘ ܀

⁴⁶with oil my head thou didst not anoint, but this woman with ointment did anoint my feet;

⁴⁶ܐܢܬ ܡܫܚܐ ܠܪܫܝ ܠܐ ܡܫܚܬ ܗܕܐ ܕܝܢ ܒܡܫܚܐ ܕܒܤܡܐ ܪܓܠܝ ܡܫܚܬ ܀

⁴⁷therefore I say to thee, her many sins have been forgiven, because she did love much; but to whom little is forgiven, little he doth love.`

⁴⁷ܚܠܦ ܗܕܐ ܐܡܪ ܐܢܐ ܠܟ ܕܫܒܝܩܝܢ ܠܗ ܚܛܗܝܗ ܤܓܝܐܐ ܡܛܠ ܕܐܚܒܬ ܤܓܝ ܗܘ ܕܝܢ ܕܩܠܝܠ ܡܫܬܒܩ ܠܗ ܩܠܝܠ ܡܚܒ ܀

⁴⁸And he said to her, `Thy sins have been forgiven;`

⁴⁸ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗܝ ܐܢܬܬܐ ܫܒܝܩܝܢ ܠܟܝ ܚܛܗܝܟܝ ܀

⁴⁹and those reclining with him (at meat) began to say within themselves, `Who is this, who also doth forgive sins?`

⁴⁹ܫܪܝܘ ܕܝܢ ܗܢܘܢ ܕܤܡܝܟܝܢ ܐܡܪܝܢ ܒܢܦܫܗܘܢ ܡܢܘ ܗܢܐ ܕܐܦ ܚܛܗܐ ܫܒܩ ܀

⁵⁰and he said unto the woman, `Thy faith have saved thee, be going on to peace.`

⁵⁰ܝܫܘܥ ܕܝܢ ܐܡܪ ܠܗܝ ܐܢܬܬܐ ܗܝܡܢܘܬܟܝ ܐܚܝܬܟܝ ܙܠܝ ܒܫܠܡܐ ܀
