Bible. New Testament
(6)And Jesus went with them. And when he was now not far from the
house, the centurion sent friends to him, saying to him: Lord, trouble
not thyself; for I am not worthy that thou shouldst enter under my
roof. (7)Wherefore neither thought I myself worthy to come to thee;
but say with a word, and my servant will be healed. (8)For I am a man
placed under authority, having soldiers under me, and I say to this
one, Go, and he goes, and to another, Come, and he comes; and to my
servant, Do this, and he does it. (9)And Jesus hearing these things,
marveled at him; and turning said to the multitude that followed him:
I say to you, I found not so great faith, even in Israel.
(10)And they who were sent, returning to the house, found the servant
whole that had been sick.
(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 a great multitude.
(12)And as he came near to the gate of the city, behold, a dead man
was carried out, the only son of his mother, and she was a widow; and
a great multitude of the city was with her. (13)And seeing her, the
Lord had compassion on her, and said to her: Weep not. (14)And he came
and touched the bier; and they who bore it stood still. And he said:
Young man, I say to thee, arise. (15)And the dead sat up, and began to
speak. And he gave him to his mother. (16)And fear seized on all; and
they glorified God, saying: A great prophet has arisen among us; and,
God has visited his people. (17)And this report went forth in all
Judaea concerning him, and in all the country around.
(18)And the disciples of John reported to him concerning all these
things. (19)And John calling to him two of his disciples sent them to
Jesus, saying: Art thou he that comes, or look we for another? (20)And
coming to him, the men said: John the Immerser has sent us to thee,
saying: Art thou he that comes, or look we for another? (21)And in
that very hour he cured many, of diseases and plagues, and evil
spirits; and on many blind he bestowed sight. (22)And answering he
said to them: Go, and report to John what ye saw and heard; that the
blind receive sight, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf
hear, the dead are raised, to the poor good tidings are published.
(23)And happy is he, whoever shall not be offended at me.
(24)And when the messengers of John had departed, he began to say to
the multitudes concerning John: What went ye out into the wilderness
to behold? A reed shaken by the wind?
(25)But what went ye out to see? A man clothed in soft raiment?
Behold, they who are gorgeously appareled, and live delicately, are in
kings' palaces.
(26)But what went ye out to see? A prophet? Yea, I say to you, and
much more than a prophet. (27)This is he, of whom it is written:
Behold, I send forth my messenger before thy face,
Who shall prepare thy way before thee.
