9Matthew 9

1And entering into a boat, he passed over the water and came into his own city.Select Matthew 9:1

2And behold they brought to him one sick of the palsy lying in a bed. And Jesus, seeing their faith, said to the man sick of the palsy: Be of good heart, son, thy sins are forgiven thee.Select Matthew 9:2

3And behold some of the scribes said within themselves: He blasphemeth.Select Matthew 9:3

4And Jesus seeing their thoughts, said: Why do you think evil in your hearts?Select Matthew 9:4

5Whether is easier, to say, Thy sins are forgiven thee: or to say, Arise, and walk?Select Matthew 9:5

6But that you may know that the Son of man hath power on earth to forgive sins, (then said he to the man sick of the palsy,) Arise, take up thy bed, and go into thy house.Select Matthew 9:6

7And he arose, and went into his house.Select Matthew 9:7

8And the multitude seeing it, feared, and glorified God that gave such power to men.Select Matthew 9:8

9And when Jesus passed on from thence, he saw a man sitting in the custom house, named Matthew; and he saith to him: Follow me. And he arose up and followed him.Select Matthew 9:9

10And it came to pass as he was sitting at meat in the house, behold many publicans and sinners came, and sat down with Jesus and his disciples.Select Matthew 9:10

11And the Pharisees seeing it, said to his disciples: Why doth your master eat with publicans and sinners?Select Matthew 9:11

12But Jesus hearing it, said: They that are in health need not a physician, but they that are ill.Select Matthew 9:12

13Go then and learn what this meaneth, I will have mercy and not sacrifice. For I am not come to call the just, but sinners.Select Matthew 9:13

14Then came to him the disciples of John, saying: Why do we and the Pharisees, fast often, but thy disciples do not fast?Select Matthew 9:14

15And Jesus said to them: Can the children of the bridegroom mourn, as long as the bridegroom is with them? But the days will come, when the bridegroom shall be taken away from them, and then they shall fast.Select Matthew 9:15

16And nobody putteth a piece of raw cloth unto an old garment. For it taketh away the fulness thereof from the garment, and there is made a greater rent.Select Matthew 9:16

17Neither do they put new wine into old bottles. Otherwise the bottles break, and the wine runneth out, and the bottles perish. But new wine they put into new bottles: and both are preserved.Select Matthew 9:17

18As he was speaking these things unto them, behold a certain ruler came up, and adored him, saying: Lord, my daughter is even now dead; but come, lay thy hand upon her, and she shall live.Select Matthew 9:18

19And Jesus rising up followed him, with his disciples.Select Matthew 9:19

20And behold a woman who was troubled with an issue of blood twelve years, came behind him, and touched the hem of his garment.Select Matthew 9:20

21For she said within herself: If I shall touch only his garment, I shall be healed.Select Matthew 9:21

22But Jesus turning and seeing her, said: Be of good heart, daughter, thy faith hath made thee whole. And the woman was made whole from that hour.Select Matthew 9:22

23And when Jesus was come into the house of the ruler, and saw the minstrels and the multitude making a rout,Select Matthew 9:23

24He said: Give place, for the girl is not dead, but sleepeth. And they laughed him to scorn.Select Matthew 9:24

25And when the multitude was put forth, he went in, and took her by the hand. And the maid arose.Select Matthew 9:25

26And the fame hereof went abroad into all that country.Select Matthew 9:26

27And as Jesus passed from thence, there followed him two blind men crying out and saying, Have mercy on us, O Son of David.Select Matthew 9:27

28And when he was come to the house, the blind men came to him. And Jesus saith to them, Do you believe, that I can do this unto you? They say to him, Yea, Lord.Select Matthew 9:28

29Then he touched their eyes, saying, According to your faith, be it done unto you.Select Matthew 9:29

30And their eyes were opened, and Jesus strictly charged them, saying, See that no man know this.Select Matthew 9:30

31But they going out, spread his fame abroad in all that country.Select Matthew 9:31

32And when they were gone out, behold they brought him a dumb man, possessed with a devil.Select Matthew 9:32

33And after the devil was cast out, the dumb man spoke, and the multitudes wondered, saying, Never was the like seen in Israel.Select Matthew 9:33

34But the Pharisees said, By the prince of devils he casteth out devils.Select Matthew 9:34

35And Jesus went about all the cities and towns, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing every disease, and every infirmity.Select Matthew 9:35

36And seeing the multitudes, he had compassion on them: because they were distressed, and lying like sheep that have no shepherd.Select Matthew 9:36

37Then he saith to his disciples, The harvest indeed is great, but the labourers are few.Select Matthew 9:37

38Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he send forth labourers into his harvest.Select Matthew 9:38
