Luke 7:11-27 in English

¹¹ And it came to pass soon afterwards, that he went to a city called Nain; and his disciples went with him, and a great multitude.

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

¹³ And when the Lord saw her, he had compassion on her, and said unto her, Weep not.

¹⁴ And he came nigh and touched the bier: and the bearers stood still. And he said, Young man, I say unto thee, Arise.

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

¹⁶ And fear took hold on all: and they glorified God, saying, A great prophet is arisen among us: and, God hath visited his people.

¹⁷ And this report went forth concerning him in the whole of Judæa, and all the region round about.

¹⁸ And the disciples of John told him of all these things.

¹⁹ And John calling unto him two of his disciples sent them to the Lord, saying, Art thou he that cometh, or look we for another?

²⁰ And when the men were come unto him, they said, John the Baptist hath sent us unto thee, saying, Art thou he that cometh, or look we for another?

²¹ In that hour he cured many of diseases and plagues and evil spirits; and on many that were blind he bestowed sight.

²² And he answered and said unto them, Go and tell John the things which ye have seen and heard; the blind receive their sight, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, and the deaf hear, the dead are raised up, the poor have good tidings preached to them.

²³ And blessed is he, whosoever shall find no occasion of stumbling in me.

²⁴ And when the messengers of John were departed, he began to say unto the multitudes concerning John, What went ye out into the wilderness to behold? a reed shaken with the wind?

²⁵ But what went ye out to see? a man clothed in soft raiment? Behold, they that are gorgeously apparelled, and live delicately, are in kings’ courts.

²⁶ But what went ye out to see? a prophet? Yea, I say unto you, and much more than a prophet.

²⁷ This is he of whom it is written, Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, Who shall prepare thy way before thee.

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 much people.

¹² Now when he came nigh to the gate of the city, behold, there was a dead man carried out, the only son of his mother, and she was a widow: and much people of the city was with her.

¹³ And when the Lord saw her, he had compassion on her, and said unto her, Weep not.

¹⁴ And he came and touched the bier: and they that bare him stood still. And he said, Young man, I say unto thee, Arise.

¹⁵ And he that was dead sat up, and began to speak. And he delivered him to his mother.

¹⁶ And there came a fear on all: and they glorified God, saying, That a great prophet is risen up among us; and, That God hath visited his people.

¹⁷ And this rumour of him went forth throughout all Judæa, and throughout all the region round about.

¹⁸ And the disciples of John shewed him of all these things.

¹⁹ And John calling unto him two of his disciples sent them to Jesus, saying, Art thou he that should come? or look we for another?

²⁰ When the men were come unto him, they said, John Baptist hath sent us unto thee, saying, Art thou he that should come? or look we for another?

²¹ And in that same hour he cured many of their infirmities and plagues, and of evil spirits; and unto many that were blind he gave sight.

²² Then Jesus answering said unto them, Go your way, and tell John what things ye have seen and heard; how that the blind see, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, to the poor the gospel is preached.

²³ And blessed is he, whosoever shall not be offended in me.

²⁴ And when the messengers of John were departed, he began to speak unto the people concerning John, What went ye out into the wilderness for to see? A reed shaken with the wind?

²⁵ But what went ye out for to see? A man clothed in soft raiment? Behold, they which are gorgeously apparelled, and live delicately, are in kings’ courts.

²⁶ But what went ye out for to see? A prophet? Yea, I say unto you, and much more than a prophet.

²⁷ This is he, of whom it is written, Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, which shall prepare thy way before thee.

²³ And blessed is he, whosoever shall find none occasion of stumbling in me.

²⁶ But what went ye out to see? a prophet? Yea, I say unto you, and much more than a prophet.

²⁷ This is he of whom it is written, Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, Who shall prepare thy way before thee.

¹¹ Soon after that, Jesus went to a town called Nain. His disciples and a large crowd of other people went with him.

¹² As they approached the town gate, the corpse of a young man who had just died was being carried out on a stretcher { people were carrying out on a stretcher the corpse of a young man who had just died}. His mother was a widow, and he was her only son. A large group of people from the town were accompanying them.

¹³ When the Lord saw her, he pitied her. He said to her, “Do not cry!”

¹⁴ Then, ignoring the Jewish laws about not coming near a corpse, he came close and touched the stretcher on which the body was lying. So the men carrying it stood still. He said, “Young man, I say to you, get up!”

¹⁵ The man sat up and began to talk! Jesus returned him to his mother to care for her.

¹⁶ Then everyone there was amazed/awestruck. They praised God, saying, “A great prophet has come among us!” They also said, “God has come to help his people!”

¹⁷ Then they reported what Jesus had done throughout all of Judea district and other nearby areas.

¹⁸ The disciples of John the Baptizer went to the prison where John was and told him about those things.

¹⁹ So one day John summoned two of his disciples and told them to go to the Lord and ask him: “Are you the Messiah who the prophets prophesied would come, or is it someone else that we should expect to come?”

²⁰ When those two men came to Jesus, they said, “John the Baptizer sent us to ask you (sg) this: Are you the Messiah that we are expecting God to send, or shall we (exc) expect someone else?”

²¹ At that very time Jesus was healing many people of their diseases and other sicknesses, he was casting out evil spirits, and he was causing many blind people to be able to see.

²² So he answered those two men, “Go back and report to John what you have seen me doing and what you have heard me telling people. I am enabling blind people to see. I am enabling lame people to walk. I am healing people who have leprosy. I am enabling deaf people to hear. I am causing dead people to become alive again, and I am telling God's good message to poor people.

²³ Also tell John that God is pleased with those who do not stop believing in me because what I do is not what they expect the Messiah to do.”

²⁴ When the men whom John had sent left, Jesus began to talk to the crowd of people about John. He said to them, “ Think about what sort of person you went to see in the desolate area when you went there to see John RHQ. You did not go there to listen to a man who constantly changed the nature of his message MET, like a reed that is blown back and forth by the wind RHQ.

²⁵ Then what kind of man did you go there to see RHQ? Was he RHQ a man who wore expensive clothes? No! You know very well that people who wear beautiful clothes and live in luxury are in kings' palaces, not in the desolate areas!

²⁶ Then what kind of person did you go to see? Did you RHQ go there to see John because he was a prophet? Yes! But I will tell you that John is more important than an ordinary prophet.

²⁷ He is the one about whom these words that God said to the Messiah have been written { the prophet Malachi wrote these words} in the Scriptures: ‘Listen! I am going to send my messenger ahead of you (sg) SYN. He will prepare people for your coming.’

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

¹⁹ John, 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?”

²⁰ When 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?’”

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

²² Jesus 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.

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

²⁴ When 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?

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.

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

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

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

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

²⁴ When 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?

²⁴ When 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?

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.

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

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

¹¹ And it came about, after a little time, that he went to a town named Nain; and his disciples went with him, and a great number of people.

¹² Now when he came near the door of the town, a dead man was being taken out, the only son of his mother, who was a widow: and a great number of people from the town were with her.

¹³ And when the Lord saw her, he had pity on her and said to her, Be not sad.

¹⁴ And he came near, and put his hand on the stretcher where the dead man was: and those who were moving it came to a stop. And he said, Young man, I say to you, Get up.

¹⁵ And the dead man got up, and words came from his lips. And he gave him to his mother.

¹⁶ And fear came on all, and they gave praise to God, saying, A great prophet is among us: and, God has given thought to his people.

¹⁷ And this story about him went through all Judaea and the places round about.

¹⁸ And the disciples of John gave him an account of all these things.

¹⁹ Then John sent two of his disciples to the Lord, saying, Are you he who is to come, or are we waiting for another?

²⁰ And when the men came to him they said, John the Baptist has sent us to you, saying, Are you he who is to come, or are we waiting for another?

²¹ At that time, he made a number of people free from their diseases and their pains, and from evil spirits; and to others who were blind he gave back the use of their eyes.

²² And answering them he said, Go back and give news to John of what you have seen, and the things which have come to your ears; the blind now see, those who had no power in their legs are walking, lepers are made clean, those who had no hearing now have their ears open, dead men come to life again, and the poor have the good news given to them.

²³ And a blessing will be on him who has no doubts about me.

²⁴ And when the men who were sent by John had gone away, he said to the people, about John, What did you go out into the waste land to see? a tall stem moving in the wind?

²⁵ But what did you go out to see? a man in soft clothing? See now, those who have beautiful clothing and delicate food are in kings' houses.

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

²⁷ This is he of whom it has been said, See, I send my servant before your face, who will make ready your way before you.

¹¹ And it came to pass afterwards he went into a city called Nain, and many of his disciples and a great crowd went with him.

¹² And as he drew near to the gate of the city, behold, a dead man was carried out, the only son of his mother, and she a widow, and a very considerable crowd of the city was with her.

¹³ And the Lord, seeing her, was moved with compassion for her, and said to her, Weep not;

¹⁴ and coming up he touched the bier, and the bearers stopped. And he said, Youth, I say to thee, Wake up.

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 been raised up amongst us; and God has visited his people.

¹⁷ And this report went out in all Judaea concerning him, and in all the surrounding country.

¹⁸ And the disciples of John brought him word concerning all these things:

¹⁹ and John, having called two of his disciples, sent to Jesus, saying, Art thou he that is coming, or are we to wait for another?

²⁰ But the men having come to him said, John the baptist has sent us to thee, saying, Art thou he that is coming, or are we to wait for another?

²¹ In that hour he healed many of diseases and plagues and evil spirits, and to many blind he granted sight.

²² And Jesus answering said to them, Go, bring back word to John of what ye have seen and heard: that blind see, lame walk, lepers are cleansed, deaf hear, dead are raised, poor are evangelized;

²³ and blessed is whosoever shall not be offended in me.

²⁴ And the messengers of John having departed, he began to speak to the crowds 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 delicate garments? Behold, those who are in splendid clothing and live luxuriously are in the courts of kings.

²⁶ But what went ye out to see? a prophet? Yea, I say to you, and what is more excellent than a prophet.

²⁷ This is he concerning whom it is written, Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, who shall prepare thy way before thee;

¹¹ And it came to pass afterwards, that he went into a city that is called Naim; and there went with him his disciples, and a great multitude.

¹² And when he came nigh 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 Whom when the Lord had seen, being moved with mercy towards her, he said to her: Weep not.

¹⁴ And he came near and touched the bier. And they that carried it, stood still. And he said: Young man, I say to thee, arise.

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

¹⁶ And there came a fear on them all: and they glorified God, saying: A great prophet is risen up among us: and, God hath visited his people.

¹⁷ And this rumour of him went forth throughout all Judea, and throughout all the country round about.

¹⁸ And John’s disciples told him of all these things.

¹⁹ And John called to him two of his disciples, and sent them to Jesus, saying: Art thou he that art to come; or look we for another?

²⁰ And when the men were come unto him, they said: John the Baptist hath sent us to thee, saying: Art thou he that art to come; or look we for another?

²¹ (And in that same hour, he cured many of their diseases, and hurts, and evil spirits: and to many that were blind he gave sight.)

²² And answering, he said to them: Go and relate to John what you have heard and seen: the blind see, the lame walk, the lepers are made clean, the deaf hear, the dead rise again, to the poor the gospel is preached:

²³ And blessed is he whosoever shall not be scandalized in me.

²⁴ And when the messengers of John were departed, he began to speak to the multitudes concerning John. What went ye out into the desert to see? a reed shaken with the wind?

²⁵ But what went you out to see? a man clothed in soft garments? Behold they that are in costly apparel and live delicately, are in the houses of kings.

²⁶ But what went you out to see? a prophet? Yea, I say to you, and more than a prophet.

²⁷ This is he of whom it is written: Behold I send my angel before thy face, who shall prepare thy way before thee.

¹¹ Now it happened on the next day, that He went into a city called Nain; and many of His disciples went with Him, and a great crowd.

¹² And when He came near the gate of the city, that behold, a dead man was being carried out, the only son of his mother; and she was a widow. And many people from the city was with her.

¹³ When the Lord saw her, He had compassion on her and said to her, “Do not weep.”

¹⁴ Then He came and touched the open coffin, and those who carried him stood still. And He said, “Young man, I say to you, arise.”

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

¹⁶ Then fear took hold of all, and they were glorifying God, saying, “A great prophet has risen up among us”; and, “God has visited His people.”

¹⁷ And this report about Him went out in all Judea, and all the surrounding region.

¹⁸ Then the disciples of John reported to him concerning all these things.

¹⁹ And summoning two of his disciples, John sent them to Jesus, saying, “Are You the Coming One, or do we look for another?”

²⁰ And when they came to Him, the men said, “John the Baptist has sent us to You, saying, ‘Are You the Coming One, or do we look for another?’ ”

²¹ And in that very hour He healed many from diseases, and torments, and evil spirits; and to many blind people He granted sight.

²² Then Jesus answered and said to them, “Go and report to John what you have seen and heard: that the blind regain sight, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, the poor have the gospel preached to them.

²³ And blessed is he who is not offended because of Me.”

²⁴ Now when John's messengers had departed, He began to speak to the crowds concerning John: “What have you gone out into the wilderness to see? A reed shaken by the wind?

²⁵ But what have you gone out to see? A man clothed in soft garments? Indeed those who are gorgeously appareled and live in luxury are in royal palaces.

²⁶ But what have you gone out to see? A prophet? Yes, I say to you, and much more than a prophet.

²⁷ This is he about whom it is written: ‘Behold, I send My messenger before Your face, who will prepare Your way before You.’

¹¹ Now it happened on the next day that He went to a town called Nain, and many of His disciples went with Him, also a large crowd.

¹² But as He approached the town gate, mercy, a dead man was being carried out, the only son of his mother, and she was a widow; a large crowd from the town was with her.

¹³ When the Lord saw her He had compassion on her and said to her, “Don't cry!”

¹⁴ And advancing He took hold of the bier and the bearers stood still. Then He said, “Young man, to you I say, get up!”

¹⁵ So the dead man sat up and began to talk! Yes, He gave him back to his mother.

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

¹⁷ And this report about Him went throughout Judea, as well as all the surrounding region.

¹⁸ Then the disciples of John informed him about all these things.

¹⁹ And summoning a certain two of his disciples, John sent them to Jesus, saying, “Are you the Coming One, or should we look for another?”

²⁰ When the men had come to Him, they said: “John the Baptizer has sent us to you, saying, ‘Are you the Coming One, or should we look for another?’ ”

²¹ Well in that very hour He healed many from diseases and torments and malignant spirits, and to many blind He granted sight.

²² So in answer Jesus said to them: “Go and report to John the things you have seen and heard: that the blind regain sight, the lame walk, lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, dead are raised, the poor are evangelized.

²³ And, blessed is he who does not take offense at me!”

²⁴ Now when John's messengers had departed, He began to speak to the crowds about John: “What did you go out into the wilderness to observe, a reed being shaken by the wind?

²⁵ But what did you go out to see, a man clothed in soft garments? Really, those with gorgeous apparel and living in luxury are in palaces.

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

²⁷ This is he about whom it is written: ‘Take note, I am sending my messenger before your face, who will prepare your way before you.’

¹¹ Soon after Jesus went to a town called Nain, accompanied by his disciples and a large crowd.

¹² As he approached the town gate a funeral procession was coming the other way. The man who had died was the only son of a widow, and a sizeable crowd from the town was with her.

¹³ When the Lord saw her he was filled with compassion for her. “Don't cry,” he told her.

¹⁴ Jesus went over to the coffin and touched it, and the pall-bearers stopped. Jesus said, “Young man, I tell you, get up.”

¹⁵ The dead man sat up and began to talk, and Jesus gave him back to his mother.

¹⁶ A sense of awe filled everyone there and they praised God, saying, “A great prophet has arisen among us,” and “God has visited his people.”

¹⁷ News about Jesus spread throughout Judea, and all around.

¹⁸ The disciples of John told John about all this.

¹⁹ John called two of his disciples and told them to go and see Jesus, and ask, “Are you the one we've been expecting, or should we wait for someone else?”

²⁰ When they came to Jesus, they said, “John the Baptist sent us to you, to ask you, ‘Are you the one we've been expecting or should we wait for someone else?’”

²¹ At that very moment Jesus was healing many people of their diseases, illnesses, evil spirits, and making the blind to see.

²² Jesus answered John's disciples, “Go and tell John what you've seen and heard. The blind see, the lame walk, the lepers cured, the deaf hear, the dead raised back to life, the poor are told the good news.

²³ How good it is for those who are not offended because of me!”

²⁴ After the messengers from John had left, Jesus began telling the crowd, “About John: what did you expect to see when you went out to meet him in the desert? Some reed blown about by the wind?

²⁵ Did you come looking for a man dressed in fine clothes? No, those who have stylish clothes and live in luxury are found in palaces.

²⁶ Were you looking for a prophet? Yes he is, and I'm telling you, he's much more than a prophet.

²⁷ It was written about him in Scripture: ‘Look, I'm sending my messenger to go before you to prepare your way.’

¹¹ And it came to passe the day after, that he went into a citie called Nain, and many of his disciples went with him, and a great multitude.

¹² Nowe when hee came neere to the gate of the citie, behold, there was a dead man caried out, who was the onely begotten sonne of his mother, which was a widowe, and much people of the citie was with her.

¹³ And when the Lord sawe her, he had compassion on her, and said vnto her, Weepe not.

¹⁴ And he went and touched the coffin (and they that bare him, stoode still) and he said, Yong man, I say vnto thee, Arise.

¹⁵ And he that was dead, sate vp, and began to speake, and he deliuered him to his mother.

¹⁶ Then there came a feare on them all, and they glorified God, saying, A great Prophet is risen among vs, and God hath visited his people.

¹⁷ And this rumour of him went foorth throughout all Iudea, and throughout all the region round about.

¹⁸ And the disciples of Iohn shewed him of all these things.

¹⁹ So Iohn called vnto him two certaine men of his disciples, and sent them to Iesus, saying, Art thou hee that should come, or shall we waite for another?

²⁰ And when the men were come vnto him, they said, Iohn Baptist hath sent vs vnto thee, saying, Art thou hee that should come, or shall we waite for another?

²¹ And at that time, he cured many of their sickenesses, and plagues, and of euill spirites, and vnto many blinde men he gaue sight freely.

²² And Iesus answered, and saide vnto them, Goe your wayes and shewe Iohn, what things ye haue seene and heard: that the blinde see, the halt goe, the lepers are cleansed, the deafe heare, the dead are raised, and the poore receiue the Gospel.

²³ And blessed is hee, that shall not be offended in me.

²⁴ And when the messengers of Iohn were departed, hee began to speake vnto the people, of Iohn, What went ye out into the wildernes to see? A reede shaken with the winde?

²⁵ But what went ye out to see? A man clothed in soft rayment? beholde, they which are gorgeously apparelled, and liue delicately, are in Kings courtes.

²⁶ But what went ye foorth to see? A Prophet? yea, I say to you, and greater then a Prophet.

²⁷ This is he of whom it is written, Beholde, I sende my messenger before thy face, which shall prepare thy way before thee.

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 much people.

¹² Now when he came nigh to the gate of the city, behold, there was a dead man carried out, the only son of his mother, and she was a widow: and much people of the city was with her.

¹³ And when the Lord saw her, he had compassion on her, and said unto her, Weep not.

¹⁴ And he came and touched the bier: and they that bare him stood still. And he said, Young man, I say unto thee, Arise.

¹⁵ And he that was dead sat up, and began to speak. And he delivered him to his mother.

¹⁶ And there came a fear on all: and they glorified God, saying, That a great prophet is risen up among us; and, That God hath visited his people.

¹⁷ And this rumour of him went forth throughout all Judea, and throughout all the region round about.

¹⁸ And the disciples of John shewed him of all these things.

¹⁹ And John calling unto him two of his disciples sent them to Jesus, saying, Art thou he that should come? or look we for another?

²⁰ When the men were come unto him, they said, John Baptist hath sent us unto thee, saying, Art thou he that should come? or look we for another?

²¹ And in that same hour he cured many of their infirmities and plagues, and of evil spirits; and unto many that were blind he gave sight.

²² Then Jesus answering said unto them, Go your way, and tell John what things ye have seen and heard; how that the blind see, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, to the poor the gospel is preached.

²³ And blessed is he, whosoever shall not be offended in me.

²⁴ And when the messengers of John were departed, he began to speak unto the people concerning John, What went ye out into the wilderness for to see? A reed shaken with the wind?

²⁵ But what went ye out for to see? A man clothed in soft raiment? Behold, they which are gorgeously apparelled, and live delicately, are in kings’ courts.

²⁶ But what went ye out for to see? A prophet? Yea, I say unto you, and much more than a prophet.

²⁷ This is he, of whom it is written, Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, which shall prepare thy way before thee.

¹¹ And it came to pass the day after, that he was going to a city called Nain; and many of his disciples were with him, and a great multitude.

¹² And as he came near the gate of the city, lo! there was carried out dead an only son of his mother, and she was a widow; and a great multitude from the city was with her.

¹³ And when the Lord saw her, he was moved with compassion for her, and said to her, Weep not.

¹⁴ And he came up, and touched the bier; and they who bore it stood still; and he said, Young man, I say to thee, Rise.

¹⁵ And he that was dead sat up and began to speak; and he gave him to his mother.

¹⁶ And fear seized on all, and they gave glory to God, saying, A great prophet hath risen up among us; and, God hath visited his people.

¹⁷ And this report about him went forth in all Judaea, and in all the neighboring country.

¹⁸ And the disciples of John told him all these things.

¹⁹ And calling to him two of his disciples, John sent them to the Lord, saying, Art thou he that is to come, or are we to look for another?

²⁰ And the men came to him and said, John the Baptist hath sent us to thee, saying, Art thou he that is to come, or are we to look for another?

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

²² And he answered and said to them, Go and tell John what ye have seen and heard; that the blind receive sight, the lame walk, lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, to the poor good tidings are brought;

²³ and blessed is he, whoever shall find no occasion of stumbling in me.

²⁴ And when the messengers of John had departed, he began to say to the multitudes concerning John, What have ye gone out into the wilderness to see? the reeds shaken by the wind?

²⁵ But what have ye gone out to see? a man clothed in soft raiment? Lo! they who wear gorgeous apparel, and live luxuriously, are in kings' palaces.

²⁶ But what have ye gone out to see? A prophet? Yea, I say to you, and more than a prophet.

²⁷ This is he of whom it is written, “Lo! I send my messenger before thy face, who shall prepare thy way before thee.”

¹¹ Shortly after, Jesus went to a town called Nain, his disciples and a great crowd going with him.

¹² Just as he approached the gate of the town, there was a dead man being carried out for burial — an only son, and his mother was a widow. A large number of the people of the town were with her.

¹³ When he saw her, the Master was moved with compassion for her, and he said to her, “Do not weep.”

¹⁴ Then he went up and touched the bier, and the bearers stopped; and Jesus said, “Young man, I am speaking to you — Rise!”

¹⁵ The dead man sat up and began to talk, and Jesus restored him to his mother.

¹⁶ Everyone was awe-struck and began praising God. “A great prophet has arisen amongst us,” they said; “and God has visited his people.”

¹⁷ And this story about Jesus spread all through Judea, and in the neighbouring countries as well.

¹⁸ All these events were reported to John by his disciples.

¹⁹ So he summoned two of them, and sent them to the Master to ask — “Are you ‘the coming one,’ or are we to look for someone else?”

²⁰ When these men found Jesus, they said, “John the Baptist has sent us to you to ask — Are you ‘the coming one,’ or are we to look for somebody else?”

²¹ At that very time Jesus had cured many people of diseases, afflictions, and wicked spirits, and had given many blind people their sight.

²² So his answer to the question was, “Go and report to John what you have witnessed and heard — the blind recover their sight, the lame walk, the lepers are made clean, and the deaf hear, the dead are raised to life, the good news is told to the poor.

²³ And blessed is the person who finds no hindrance in me.”

²⁴ When John's messengers had left, Jesus, speaking to the crowds, began to say with reference to John,

²⁵ “What did you go out into the wilderness to look at? A reed waving in the wind? If not, what did you go out to see? A man dressed in rich clothing? Why, those who are accustomed to fine clothes and luxury live in royal palaces.

²⁶ What then did you go to see? A prophet? Yes, I tell you, and far more than a prophet.

²⁷ This is the man of whom scripture says — ‘I am sending my messenger ahead of you, and he will prepare your way before you.’

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

²² Yeshua Salvation answered them, “Go and tell John Yah is gracious the things which you have seen and heard: that the blind receive their sight, the lame walk, the people afflicted with tzara'at ·leprosy· are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised up, and the poor have good news preached to them.

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

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

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.

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

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

¹¹ Jesus and his followers went to a town called Nain. A big mob of other people went with him.

¹² Just before that, a young man in that town died. He was the only son of his mother, and her husband was already dead, so she had nobody left to look after her. That mother, and a big mob of people, were taking him out of the town on a stretcher, to bury him. And at that same time, Jesus was going into the town on the same road.

¹³ Jesus saw the mother, and he felt very sorry for her. He told her, “Don’t cry.”

¹⁴ Then he walked over to the stretcher and touched it, and the men that were carrying it stopped. Jesus said, “Young man, listen to me. Get up.”

¹⁵ Then the dead boy sat up and started to talk. And Jesus told him to go back to his mother.

¹⁶ Everyone that saw this was frightened. They said, “God is really great and powerful. One of his men has come to us to tell us his word and show us his power. God has come to help his people.”

¹⁷ Then went and told lots of other people what they saw, so people everywhere in Judea country heard that story.

¹¹ And it fortuned after that that he went into a cite called Naim and many of his disciples went with him and moche people.

¹² When he came nye to the gate of the cite: beholde ther was a deed man caried out which was the only sonne of his mother and she was a widowe and moche people of the cite was with her.

²⁰ When the men were come vnto him they sayde: Iohn baptiste sent vs vnto ye sayinge: Arte thou he that shall come: or shall we wayte for another?

²¹ And at the same tyme he cured many of their infirmites and plages and of evyll spretes and vnto many that were blynde he gave sight.

²² And Iesus answered and sayd vnto them: Goo youre wayes and shewe Iohn what thinges ye have sene and harde: how that the blynde se the halt goo the lepers are clensed the deafe heare the deed aryse to the poore is the glad tydinges preached

²³ and happy is he that is not offended by me.

²⁷ This is he of who it is wrytten: Beholde I sende my messenger before thy face to prepare thy waye before the.

¹¹ Soon after that, Jesus went to a town called Nain, and his disciples and a great crowd went with him.

¹² As he came near to the gate of the town, behold, a man who had died was being carried out, the only son of his mother (who was a widow), and a rather large crowd from the town was with her.

¹³ When the Lord saw her, he was deeply moved with compassion for her and said to her, “Do not cry.”

¹⁴ Then he went up and touched the wooden frame on which they carried the body, and those carrying it stood still. He said, “Young man, I say to you, arise.”

¹⁵ The dead man sat up and began to speak, and Jesus gave him to his mother.

¹⁶ Then fear overcame all of them, and they kept praising God, saying, “A great prophet has been raised among us” and “God has looked upon his people.”

¹⁷ This news about Jesus spread throughout the whole of Judea and all the neighboring regions.

¹⁸ John's disciples told him about all these things.

¹⁹ Then John called two of his disciples and sent them to the Lord to say, “Are you the one who is to come, or should we look for another?”

²⁰ When they had come near to Jesus, the men said, “John the Baptist has sent us to you to say, 'Are you the one who is coming, or should we look for another?'”

²¹ In that hour he healed many people from sicknesses and afflictions and from evil spirits, and to many blind people he gave sight.

²² Jesus answered and said to them, “After you have gone on your way, report to John what you have seen and heard. Blind people are receiving sight, lame people are walking, lepers are being cleansed, deaf people are hearing, people who have died are being raised back to life, and needy people are being told the good news.

²³ The person who does not stop believing in me because of my actions is blessed.”

²⁴ After John's messengers had gone away, Jesus began to say to the crowds about John, “What did you go out into the desert to see? A reed shaken by the wind?

²⁵ But what did you go out to see? A man dressed in soft clothes? Look, those who wear expensive clothing and who live in luxury are in kings' palaces.

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

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

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