1 And having boarded into a vessel He crossed over and had come to His own city.2 And behold! They brought to Him a paralytic placed upon a cot. And Yahshua, seeing their faith, said to the paralytic "Have courage, son, your errors are forgiven!"3 And behold, some of the scribes said among themselves "This man blasphemes!"4 And Yahshua, seeing their considerations, said "For what reason do you ponder evil in your hearts?5 For what is easier to say, 'Your sins are forgiven', or to say 'Arise and walk'?6 But in order that you would know that the Son of Man has authority upon the earth to forgive errors (then He says to the paralytic): Arising take your cot and go to your house!"7 And arising he departed for his house.8 Then seeing it the crowds feared and honored Yahweh for giving such authority to men.9 And Yahshua passing from there sees a man sitting at the tax office, called Maththaios, and says to him "Follow Me", and arising he followed Him.10 And it happened upon His reclining in the house, then behold: many tax-collectors and wrongdoers having come reclined with Yahshua and His students.11 And the Pharisees seeing said to His students: "For what reason does your Teacher eat with tax-collectors and wrongdoers?"12 But He hearing said "Those who are strong have no need of a physician, but those who have maladies.13 Now going you learn why it is 'Mercy I desire and not sacrifice'! For I have not come to call the righteous but the wrongdoers."14 Then the students of Iohannes came forth to Him saying: "For what reason do we and the Pharisees fast, but Your students do not fast?"15 And Yahshua said to them: "The sons of the bridechamber are not able to hunger for as long as the bridegroom is with them. But the days shall come when the bridegroom has been taken from them, and then they shall fast.16 Now no one puts a patch of uncarded cloth upon an old garment. For it lifts its borders away from the garment and it becomes torn worse.17 Nor do they put new wine into old skins, but if it is, the skins break and the wine pours out and the skins are destroyed! Rather they put new wine into new skins, and both are kept together."18 Upon His speaking these things to them, behold! One leader having come worshipped Him saying that "My daughter has just now died! But coming put Your hands upon her, and she shall live!"19 And arising Yahshua followed him, and His students.20 And behold, a woman having a flow of blood for twelve years approaching from behind grabbed the hem of His garment.21 For she had said within herself: "If only I may grab His garment I shall be saved."22 Then Yahshua turning and seeing her said "Have courage, daughter, your faith has saved you!" And the woman had been saved from that hour.23 And upon Yahshua's having come to the house of the leader and seeing the fluteplayers and the disturbed multitude24 He said "Withdraw! For the child has not died, but sleeps!" And they derided Him.25 But when He had cast out the crowd, entering in He held her hand, and raised the child.26 And the report of her went out into that whole land.27 And with Yahshua passing from there two blind men followed Him, crying out and saying: "Have mercy on us, Son of David!"28 And upon having come into the house the blind men approached Him, and Yahshua says to them: "Do you believe that I am able to do this?" They say to Him: "Yes, Prince!"29 Then He touched their eyes, saying "It must be for you according to your faith."30 And their eyes opened. And Yahshua admonished them saying: "You must see that no one knows!"31 But they having departed made it known in all that land.32 Then upon their departing, behold! They brought to Him a mute man possessed by a demon.33 And upon the demon's having been cast out the mute spoke. And the crowds marveled, saying: "Never yet has such been seen in Israel!"34 But the Pharisees said: "By the Prince of demons He casts out demons!"35 And Yahshua went around all the cities and villages teaching in their assembly halls and proclaiming the good message of the kingdom and healing every disease and every weakness.36 But seeing the crowds He had been deeply moved on account of them, because they were troubled and downcast, just as sheep not having a shepherd.37 Then He says to His students: "Great is the harvest, but the workers are few!38 Therefore it is necessary for the lord of the harvest, that he send out workers into his harvest!"
