And once again, Jesus went into Capernaum, and after some days, it was reported that he was at home.

And again he entered into Capernaum after some days; and it was noised that he was in the house.

And immediately, many people gathered together, so there was no more room, not even near the door, and he was teaching them the word.

And straightway many were gathered together, insomuch that there was no room to receive them, no, not so much as about the door: and he preached the word unto them.

And they came to him, bringing a paralyzed man who was being carried by four people.

And they come unto him, bringing one sick of the palsy, which was borne of four.

And because they could not get near him due to the crowd, they removed the roof above where he was, and after digging through it, they lowered the mat on which the paralyzed man was lying.

And when they could not come nigh unto him for the press, they uncovered the roof where he was: and when they had broken it up, they let down the bed wherein the sick of the palsy lay.

When Jesus saw their faith, he said to the paralyzed man, 'Child, your sins are forgiven.'

When Jesus saw their faith, he said unto the sick of the palsy, Son, thy sins be forgiven thee.

Now some of the scribes were sitting there, reasoning in their hearts,

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

‘Why does this man speak like this? He is blaspheming! Who can forgive sins but God alone?’

Why doth this man thus speak blasphemies? who can forgive sins but God only?

And immediately, Jesus, perceiving in his spirit that they were reasoning within themselves in this way, said to them, 'Why are you thinking these things in your hearts?'

And immediately when Jesus perceived in his spirit that they so reasoned within themselves, he said unto them, Why reason ye these things in your hearts?

‘Which is easier: to say to the paralyzed man, “Your sins are forgiven,” or to say, “Get up, take your mat, and walk”? ’

Whether is it easier to say to the sick of the palsy, Thy sins be forgiven thee; or to say, Arise, and take up thy bed, and walk?

‘But so that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins,’ he said to the paralyzed man,

But that ye may know that the Son of man hath power on earth to forgive sins, (he saith to the sick of the palsy,)

‘I tell you, get up, take your mat, and go home.’

I say unto thee, Arise, and take up thy bed, and go thy way into thine house.

And immediately, the man got up, took his mat, and went out in the sight of everyone, so that they were all amazed and glorified God, saying, 'We have never seen anything like this.'

And immediately he arose, took up the bed, and went forth before them all; insomuch that they were all amazed, and glorified God, saying, We never saw it on this fashion.

And again, Jesus went out beside the sea, and the crowd came to him, and he was teaching them.

And he went forth again by the sea side; and all the multitude resorted unto him, and he taught them.

As he passed by, he saw Levi, the son of Alphaeus, sitting at the tax booth, and he said to him, 'Follow me.' And Levi got up and followed him.

And as he passed by, he saw Levi the son of Alphaeus sitting at the receipt of custom, and said unto him, Follow me. And he arose and followed him.

And while Jesus was dining in Levi's house, many tax collectors and sinners were reclining at the table with Jesus and his disciples, for there were many who followed him.

And it came to pass, that, as Jesus sat at meat in his house, many publicans and sinners sat also together with Jesus and his disciples: for there were many, and they followed him.

And when the scribes and Pharisees saw Jesus eating with tax collectors and sinners, they said to his disciples, 'Why does he eat and drink with tax collectors and sinners?'

And when the scribes and Pharisees saw him eat with publicans and sinners, they said unto his disciples, How is it that he eateth and drinketh with publicans and sinners?

When Jesus heard this, he said to them, 'Those who are well have no need of a doctor, but those who are sick. I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners, to repentance.'

When Jesus heard it, he saith unto them, They that are whole have no need of the physician, but they that are sick: I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.

Now John's disciples and the Pharisees were fasting, and people came and asked Jesus, 'Why do John's disciples and the Pharisees’ disciples fast, but your disciples do not fast?

And the disciples of John and of the Pharisees used to fast: and they come and say unto him, Why do the disciples of John and of the Pharisees fast, but thy disciples fast not?

Jesus said to them, 'Can the wedding guests fast while the bridegroom is with them? As long as they have the bridegroom with them, they cannot fast.'

And Jesus said unto them, Can the children of the bridechamber fast, while the bridegroom is with them? as long as they have the bridegroom with them, they cannot fast.

'But the days will come when the bridegroom is taken away from them, and then they will fast on that day.'

But the days will come, when the bridegroom shall be taken away from them, and then shall they fast in those days.

'No one sews a patch of unshrunk cloth on an old garment. If he does, the patch pulls away from the garment, and the tear becomes worse.'

No man also seweth a piece of new cloth on an old garment: else the new piece that filled it up taketh away from the old, and the rent is made worse.

'And no one pours new wine into old wineskins. Otherwise, the wine will burst the wineskins, and both the wine and the wineskins will be ruined. Instead, new wine is poured into fresh wineskins.'

And no man putteth new wine into old bottles: else the new wine doth burst the bottles, and the wine is spilled, and the bottles will be marred: but new wine must be put into new bottles.

One Sabbath, as Jesus was walking through the grainfields, his disciples began to pluck some heads of grain as they went along.

And it came to pass, that he went through the corn fields on the sabbath day; and his disciples began, as they went, to pluck the ears of corn.

The Pharisees said to Jesus, 'Look, why are they doing what is not lawful on the Sabbath?

And the Pharisees said unto him, Behold, why do they on the sabbath day that which is not lawful?

Jesus said to them, 'Have you never read what David did when he and his companions were hungry and in need?

And he said unto them, Have ye never read what David did, when he had need, and was an hungred, he, and they that were with him?

'He entered the house of God in the time of Abiathar the high priest and ate the bread of the Presence, which was not lawful for anyone but the priests to eat. He also gave some to his companions.'

How he went into the house of God in the days of Abiathar the high priest, and did eat the shewbread, which is not lawful to eat but for the priests, and gave also to them which were with him?

Then he said to them, 'The Sabbath was made for man, not man for the Sabbath.'

And he said unto them, The sabbath was made for man, and not man for the sabbath:

'So the Son of Man is Lord even of the Sabbath.'

Therefore the Son of man is Lord also of the sabbath.
