¹Potom po niekoľkých dňoch zase vošiel do Kafarnauma, a počulo sa, že je v dome.

¹And again he entered into Capernaum, after [some] days, and it was heard that he is in the house,

²A hneď sa sišli mnohí, takže sa už nemohli pomestiť ani ku dveriam. A hovoril im slovo Božie.

²and immediately many were gathered together, so that there was no more room, not even at the door, and he was speaking to them the word.

³A prišli k nemu nesúci porazeného, ktorého štyria niesli.

³And they come unto him, bringing a paralytic, borne by four,

⁴A keď sa pre zástup nemohli priblížiť k nemu, odkryli strechu, tam, kde bol, a prelúpiac sa spustili ložu, na ktorej ležal porazený.

⁴and not being able to come near to him because of the multitude, they uncovered the roof where he was, and, having broken [it] up, they let down the couch on which the paralytic was lying,

⁵A keď videl Ježiš ich vieru, povedal porazenému: Synu, odpustené sú ti tvoje hriechy!

⁵and Jesus having seen their faith, saith to the paralytic, `Child, thy sins have been forgiven thee.`

⁶Lež sedeli tam niektorí zo zákonníkov a rozmýšľali vo svojich srdciach:

⁶And there were certain of the scribes there sitting, and reasoning in their hearts,

⁷Čo tento tak hovorí? Rúha sa. Kto môže odpúšťať hriechy krome jedného Boha?

⁷`Why doth this one thus speak evil words? who is able to forgive sins except one — God?`

⁸A hneď poznal Ježiš svojím duchom, že takto rozmýšľajú v sebe, a povedal im: Čo to rozmýšľate vo svojich srdciach?

⁸And immediately Jesus, having known in his spirit that they thus reason in themselves, said to them, `Why these things reason ye in your hearts?

⁹Čože je ľahšie, povedať porazenému: Odpustené sú ti hriechy, a či povedať: Vstaň a vezmi svoju ložu a choď!?

⁹which is easier, to say to the paralytic, The sins have been forgiven to thee? or to say, Rise, and take up thy couch, and walk?

¹⁰Ale aby ste vedeli, že Syn človeka má právo a moc odpúšťať hriechy na zemi - rečie porazenému:

¹⁰`And, that ye may know that the Son of Man hath authority on the earth to forgive sins — (he saith to the paralytic) —

¹¹Tebe hovorím: Vstaň, vezmi svoju ložu a idi do svojho domu!

¹¹I say to thee, Rise, and take up thy couch, and go away to thy house;`

¹²A hneď vstal, sobral svoju ložu a vyšiel pred všetkými, takže všetci žasli a oslavovali Boha a hovorili: Nikdy sme niečoho takého nevideli!

¹²and he rose immediately, and having taken up the couch, he went forth before all, so that all were astonished, and do glorify God, saying — `Never thus did we see.`

¹³A zase vyšiel k moru, a celý zástup prichádzal k nemu, a učil ich.

¹³And he went forth again by the sea, and all the multitude was coming unto him, and he was teaching them,

¹⁴A idúc pomimo videl Léviho, syna Alfeovho, sedieť na cle a povedal mu: Poď za mnou! A on vstal a išiel za ním.

¹⁴and passing by, he saw Levi of Alpheus sitting at the tax-office, and saith to him, `Be following me,` and he, having risen, did follow him.

¹⁵A stalo sa, keď sedel Ježiš v jeho dome za stolom, že aj mnohí publikáni a hriešnici stolovali s Ježišom i s jeho učeníkmi, lebo ich bolo mnoho, a išli za ním.

¹⁵And it came to pass, in his reclining (at meat) in his house, that many tax-gatherers and sinners were reclining (at meat) with Jesus and his disciples, for there were many, and they followed him.

¹⁶A zákonníci a farizeovia vidiac ho jesť s publikánmi a hriešnikmi hovorili jeho učeníkom: Čo je to, že s publikánmi a hriešnikmi jie a pije?

¹⁶And the scribes and the Pharisees, having seen him eating with the tax-gatherers and sinners, said to his disciples, `Why — that with the tax-gatherers and sinners he doth eat and drink?`

¹⁷A keď to počul Ježiš, povedal im: Zdraví nepotrebujú lekára, ale nemocní. Neprišiel som povolať spravedlivých, ale hriešnych ku pokániu.

¹⁷And Jesus, having heard, saith to them, `They who are strong have no need of a physician, but they who are ill; I came not to call righteous men, but sinners to reformation.`

¹⁸A učeníci Jánovi aj učeníci farizeov sa postili. A prišli a povedali mu: Prečo sa postia učeníci Jánovi aj učeníci farizeov, a tvoji učeníci sa nepostia?

¹⁸And the disciples of John and those of the Pharisees were fasting, and they come and say to him, `Wherefore do the disciples of John and those of the Pharisees fast, and thy disciples do not fast?`

¹⁹A Ježiš im povedal: Či sa môžu svadobníci postiť, kým je s nimi ženích? Dokiaľ majú so sebou ženícha, nemôžu sa postiť.

¹⁹And Jesus said to them, `Are the sons of the bride-chamber able, while the bridegroom is with them, to fast? so long time as they have the bridegroom with them they are not able to fast;

²⁰Ale prijdú dni, keď bude vzatý od nich ženích, a vtedy sa budú postiť, v ten deň.

²⁰but days shall come when the bridegroom may be taken from them, and then they shall fast — in those days.

²¹A veď nikto neprišíva záplaty surového súkna na staré rúcho, lebo ináče ten jeho nový výplnok odtrhne kus z toho starého, a povstane ešte väčšia diera.

²¹`And no one a patch of undressed cloth doth sew on an old garment, and if not — the new filling it up doth take from the old and the rent doth become worse;

²²A tiež nikto nevlieva nového vína do starých kožíc, lebo ináče nové víno roztrhne kožice, víno sa vyleje, a kožice sa zahubia; ale nové víno sa má lievať do nových kožíc.

²²and no one doth put new wine into old skins, and if not — the new wine doth burst the skins, and the wine is poured out, and the skins will be destroyed; but new wine into new skins is to be put.`

²³A stalo sa, že išiel raz v sobotu pomimo cez siatiny, a jeho učeníci začali konať cestu trhajúc klasy.

²³And it came to pass — he is going along on the sabbaths through the corn-fields — and his disciples began to make a way, plucking the ears,

²⁴A farizeovia mu povedali: Vidz, čo robia v sobotu, čo sa nesmie.

²⁴and the Pharisees said to him, `Lo, why do they on the sabbaths that which is not lawful?`

²⁵A povedal im: Či ste nikdy nečítali, čo urobil Dávid, keď bol v núdzi a bol hladný, on sám i tí, ktorí boli s ním?

²⁵And he said to them, `Did ye never read what David did, when he had need and was hungry, he and those with him?

²⁶Ako vošiel do domu Božieho za Abiatára, najvyššieho kňaza, a jedol chleby predloženia, ktoré nesmie nikto jesť iba kňazi, a dal i tým, ktorí boli s ním?

²⁶how he went into the house of God, (at `Abiathar the chief priest,`) and the loaves of the presentation did eat, which it is not lawful to eat, except to the priests, and he gave also to those who were with him?`

²⁷A povedal im: Sobota je učinená pre človeka a nie človek pre sobotu,

²⁷And he said to them, `The sabbath for man was made, not man for the sabbath,

²⁸takže Syn človeka je pánom i soboty.

²⁸so that the son of man is lord also of the sabbath.`
