¹After he had finished speaking in the hearing of the people, he entered into Capernaum.

¹Potem pa, ko je končal vse besede svoje pred ljudstvom, ki je poslušalo, pride v Kafarnavm.

²A certain centurion’s servant, who was dear to him, was sick and at the point of death.

²Nekemu stotniku pa je bil hlapec, katerega je rad imel, bolan in je že umiral.

³When he heard about Jesus, he sent to him elders of the Jews, asking him to come and save his servant.

³Ko pa sliši o Jezusu, pošlje k njemu starešine Judov. Proseč ga, naj pride in mu ozdravi hlapca.

⁴When they came to Jesus, they begged him earnestly, saying, “He is worthy for you to do this for him,

⁴Ko pa oni pridejo k Jezusu, ga silno prosijo, rekoč: Vreden je, da mu to storiš;

⁵for he loves our nation, and he built our synagogue for us.”

⁵ljubi namreč narod naš in shodnico nam je sezidal sam.

⁶Jesus went with them. When he was now not far from the house, the centurion sent friends to him, saying to him, “Lord, don’t trouble yourself, for I am not worthy for you to come under my roof.

⁶In Jezus gre tja ž njimi. In ko že ni daleč od hiše, pošlje k njemu stotnik prijatelje in mu sporoči: Gospod, ne trudi se; zakaj nisem vreden, da stopiš pod streho mojo.

⁷Therefore I didn’t even think myself worthy to come to you; but say the word, and my servant will be healed.

⁷Zato se tudi nisem sam vrednega štel, da bi prišel k tebi; temuč reci z besedo, in hlapec moj ozdravi.

⁸For I also am a man placed under authority, having under myself soldiers. I tell this one, ‘Go!’ and he goes; and to another, ‘Come!’ and he comes; and to my servant, ‘Do this,’ and he does it.”

⁸Kajti tudi jaz sem človek, pod oblast postavljen, in imam vojake pod seboj, pa velim temu: Pojdi! In gre, in drugemu: Pridi! In pride, in hlapcu svojemu: Stori to! In stori.

⁹When Jesus heard these things, he marveled at him, and turned and said to the multitude who followed him, “I tell you, I have not found such great faith, no, not in Israel.”

⁹Ko pa Jezus to sliši, se mu začudi in, obrnivši se, reče množici, ki je šla za njim: Pravim vam, tudi v Izraelu še nisem našel tolike vere.

¹⁰Those who were sent, returning to the house, found that the servant who had been sick was well.

¹⁰In ko se vrnejo domov, ki so bili poslani, najdejo hlapca zdravega.

¹¹It happened soon afterwards, that he went to a city called Nain. Many of his disciples, along with a great multitude, went with him.

¹¹In zgodi se potem, da gre v mesto, ki se imenuje Nain, in ž njim gredo učenci njegovi in velika množica.

¹²Now when he drew near to the gate of the city, behold, one who was dead was carried out, the only son of his mother, and she was a widow. Many people of the city were with her.

¹²Ko se pa približa mestnim vratom, glej, neso ven mrliča, edinega sina matere njegove, in ona je bila vdova; in mnogo ljudstva iz mesta gre ž njo.

¹³When the Lord saw her, he had compassion on her, and said to her, “Don’t cry.”

¹³In ko jo Gospod ugleda, se mu zasmili in ji reče: Ne jokaj!

¹⁴He came near and touched the coffin, and the bearers stood still. He said, “Young man, I tell you, arise!”

¹⁴In pristopivši se dotakne odra, nosilci pa se ustavijo, in veli: Mladenič, pravim ti, vstani!

¹⁵He who was dead sat up, and began to speak. And he gave him to his mother.

¹⁵In mrlič sede in začne govoriti. In dá ga materi njegovi.

¹⁶Fear took hold of all, and they glorified God, saying, “A great prophet has arisen among us!” and, “God has visited his people!”

¹⁶Obide pa jih groza vse, in hvalijo Boga, rekoč: Velik prorok je vstal med nami, in Bog je obiskal ljudstvo svoje.

¹⁷This report went out concerning him in the whole of Judea, and in all the surrounding region.

¹⁷In razglasi se ta beseda o njem po vsej Judeji in vseh sosednjih krajih.

¹⁸The disciples of John told him about all these things.

¹⁸In o vsem tem so sporočili Janezu učenci njegovi.

¹⁹John, calling to himself two of his disciples, sent them to Jesus, saying, “Are you the one who is coming, or should we look for another?”

¹⁹In pokliče dva izmed učencev svojih ter ju pošlje h Gospodu vprašat: Si li ti tisti, ki ima priti, ali naj čakamo druzega?

²⁰When the men had come to him, they said, “John the Baptizer has sent us to you, saying, ‘Are you he who comes, or should we look for another?’”

²⁰Ko torej moža prideta k Jezusu, rečeta: Janez Krstnik naju je poslal k tebi vprašat: Si li ti tisti, ki ima priti, ali naj čakamo druzega?

²¹In that hour he cured many of diseases and plagues and evil spirits; and to many who were blind he gave sight.

²¹Ravno tisto uro pa jih je mnogo ozdravil bolezni in muk in hudobnih duhov in mnogim slepcem je dal vid.

²²Jesus answered them, “Go and tell John the things which you have seen and heard: that the blind receive their sight, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised up, and the poor have good news preached to them.

²²In Jezus odgovori in jima reče: Pojdita in sporočita Janezu, kar sta videla in slišala: slepci izpregledujejo, hromci hodijo, gobavci se očiščajo, gluhi slišijo, mrtvi vstajajo, ubogim se oznanja evangelij.

²³ Blessed is he who finds no occasion for stumbling in me.”

²³In blagor mu, kdor se ne pohujša nad menoj.

²⁴When John’s messengers had departed, he began to tell the multitudes about John, “What did you go out into the wilderness to see? A reed shaken by the wind?

²⁴In ko sta poslanca Janezova odšla, začne govoriti množici o Janezu: Kaj ste šli v puščavo gledat? Trst, ki ga veter maje?

²⁵ But what did you go out to see? A man clothed in soft clothing? Behold, those who are gorgeously dressed, and live delicately, are in kings’ courts.

²⁵Ali kaj ste šli, da vidite? Človeka, ki se oblači v mehka oblačila? Glej, kateri se oblačijo v gosposko obleko in živé v slasteh, bivajo v kraljevih dvorih. Ali koga ste šlo gledat? Proroka?

²⁶ But what did you go out to see? A prophet? Yes, I tell you, and much more than a prophet.

²⁶Da, pravim vam, in še več nego proroka.

²⁷ This is he of whom it is written, ‘Behold, I send my messenger before your face, who will prepare your way before you.’ Malachi 3:1

²⁷Ta je, o katerem je pisano: „Glej, jaz pošiljam angela svojega pred obličjem tvojim, ki pripravi tvojo pot pred teboj.“

²⁸ “For I tell you, among those who are born of women there is not a greater prophet than John the Baptizer, yet he who is least in the Kingdom of God is greater than he.”

²⁸Pravim vam: Nobeden izmed rojenih od žen ni večji od Janeza; a kdor je najmanjši v kraljestvu Božjem, je večji od njega.

²⁹When all the people and the tax collectors heard this, they declared God to be just, having been baptized with John’s baptism.

²⁹In vsi ljudje, ki so ga slišali, in cestninarji so priznali pravičnost Bogu, krstivši se s krstom Janezovim.

³⁰But the Pharisees and the lawyers rejected the counsel of God, not being baptized by him themselves.

³⁰A farizeji in učeniki postave so zavrgli sklep Božji sami zoper sebe, ko se mu niso dali krstiti.

³¹ TR adds “But the Lord said,” “To what then will I liken the people of this generation? What are they like?

³¹Komu torej naj primerjam ljudi tega rodu? in komu so podobni?

³² They are like children who sit in the marketplace, and call one to another, saying, ‘We piped to you, and you didn’t dance. We mourned, and you didn’t weep.’

³²Podobni so otrokom, ki posedajo po ulicah in si med seboj kličejo in pravijo: Piskali smo vam, in niste plesali; žalostinke smo vam peli, in niste jokali.

³³ For John the Baptizer came neither eating bread nor drinking wine, and you say, ‘He has a demon.’

³³Janez Krstnik je namreč prišel in ne jé kruha in ne pije vina, pa pravite: Hudiča ima!

³⁴ The Son of Man has come eating and drinking, and you say, ‘Behold, a gluttonous man, and a drunkard; a friend of tax collectors and sinners!’

³⁴Prišel je Sin človekov in jé in pije, pa pravite: Glejte ga človeka požeruha in pijanca, mitarjev in grešnikov prijatelja!

³⁵ Wisdom is justified by all her children.”

³⁵A modrost Božjo so opravičili vsi njeni otroci.

³⁶One of the Pharisees invited him to eat with him. He entered into the Pharisee’s house, and sat at the table.

³⁶Prosil ga pa je eden izmed farizejev, naj bi jedel ž njim; in gre v hišo farizejevo ter sede za mizo.

³⁷Behold, a woman in the city who was a sinner, when she knew that he was reclining in the Pharisee’s house, she brought an alabaster jar of ointment.

³⁷In glej, žena, ki je bila v mestu grešnica, prinese, ko zve, da sedi za mizo v hiši farizejevi, alabastrovo steklenico mazila,

³⁸Standing behind at his feet weeping, she began to wet his feet with her tears, and she wiped them with the hair of her head, kissed his feet, and anointed them with the ointment.

³⁸in se ustopi jokaje odzadaj k nogam njegovim ter začne močiti noge njegove s solzami in jih otirati z lasmi svoje glave, in mu poljublja noge in jih mazili z mazilom.

³⁹Now when the Pharisee who had invited him saw it, he said to himself, “This man, if he were a prophet, would have perceived who and what kind of woman this is who touches him, that she is a sinner.”

³⁹Ko pa to vidi farizej, ki ga je bil povabil, pravi sam pri sebi takole: Ako bi bil ta prorok, bi pač vedel, kdo in kakšna žena je, ki se ga dotika, kajti grešnica je.

⁴⁰Jesus answered him, “Simon, I have something to tell you.” He said, “Teacher, say on.”

⁴⁰In odgovori Jezus in mu reče: Simon, imam ti nekaj povedati. On pa reče: Učenik, povej.

⁴¹ “A certain lender had two debtors. The one owed five hundred denarii, and the other fifty.

⁴¹Neki upnik ima dva dolžnika; eden mu je dolžen petsto denarjev, a drugi petdeset.

⁴² When they couldn’t pay, he forgave them both. Which of them therefore will love him most?”

⁴²Ker pa nimata s čim plačati, odpusti obema. Povej torej, kateri od njiju ga bo bolj ljubil?

⁴³Simon answered, “He, I suppose, to whom he forgave the most.” He said to him, “You have judged correctly.”

⁴³Odgovori Simon in reče: Menim, da tisti, kateremu je več odpustil. On pa mu reče: Prav si razsodil.

⁴⁴Turning to the woman, he said to Simon, “Do you see this woman? I entered into your house, and you gave me no water for my feet, but she has wet my feet with her tears, and wiped them with the hair of her head.

⁴⁴In obrnivši se k ženi, pravi Simonu: Vidiš to ženo? Prišel sem v hišo tvojo, vode mi nisi podal za noge; a ta mi je s solzami močila noge in jih otirala s svojimi lasmi.

⁴⁵ You gave me no kiss, but she, since the time I came in, has not ceased to kiss my feet.

⁴⁵Nisi me poljubil; ta pa ni nehala, odkar sem prišel noter, poljubovati noge moje.

⁴⁶ You didn’t anoint my head with oil, but she has anointed my feet with ointment.

⁴⁶Z oljem nisi mazilil glave moje, a ta mi je z mazilom pomazilila noge.

⁴⁷ Therefore I tell you, her sins, which are many, are forgiven, for she loved much. But to whom little is forgiven, the same loves little.”

⁴⁷Zato ti pravim: Odpuščeni so ji mnogi grehi njeni, kajti imela je veliko ljubezen; a komur se malo odpušča, malo ljubi.

⁴⁸He said to her, “Your sins are forgiven.”

⁴⁸Njej pa reče: Odpuščeni so ti grehi tvoji.

⁴⁹Those who sat at the table with him began to say to themselves, “Who is this who even forgives sins?”

⁴⁹In začno, ki so ž njim sedeli pri mizi, govoriti v sebi: Kdo je ta, ki celó grehe odpušča?On pa reče ženi: Vera tvoja te je rešila, pojdi v miru!

⁵⁰He said to the woman, “Your faith has saved you. Go in peace.”

⁵⁰On pa reče ženi: Vera tvoja te je rešila, pojdi v miru!
