 7:1  Now when he had ended all his sayings in the audience of
the people, he entered into Capernaum.
 7:2  And a certain centurion's servant, who was dear unto him,
was sick, and ready to die.
 7:3  And when he heard of Jesus, he sent unto him the elders
of the Jews, beseeching him that he would come and heal his
servant.
 7:4  And when they came to Jesus, they besought him instantly,
saying, That he was worthy for whom he should do this:
 7:5  For he loveth our nation, and he hath built us a
synagogue.
 7:6  Then Jesus went with them. And when he was now not far
from the house, the centurion sent friends to him, saying unto
him, Lord, trouble not thyself: for I am not worthy that thou
shouldest enter under my roof:
 7:7  Wherefore neither thought I myself worthy to come unto
thee: but say in a word, and my servant shall be healed.
 7:8  For I also am a man set under authority, having under me
soldiers, and I say unto one, Go, and he goeth; and to another,
Come, and he cometh; and to my servant, Do this, and he doeth
[it].
 7:9  When Jesus heard these things, he marvelled at him, and
turned him about, and said unto the people that followed him, I
say unto you, I have not found so great faith, no, not in
Israel.
 7:10  And they that were sent, returning to the house, found
the servant whole that had been sick.
 7:11  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.
 7:12  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.
 7:13  And when the Lord saw her, he had compassion on her, and
said unto her, Weep not.
 7:14  And he came and touched the bier: and they that bare
[him] stood still. And he said, Young man, I say unto thee,
Arise.
 7:15  And he that was dead sat up, and began to speak. And he
delivered him to his mother.
 7:16  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.
 7:17  And this rumour of him went forth throughout all Judaea,
and throughout all the region round about.
 7:18  And the disciples of John showed him of all these
things.
 7:19  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?
 7:20  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?
 7:21  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.
 7:22  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.
 7:23  And blessed is [he], whosoever shall not be offended in
me.
 7:24  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?
 7:25  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.
 7:26  But what went ye out for to see? A prophet? Yea, I say
unto you, and much more than a prophet.
 7:27  This is [he], of whom it is written, Behold, I send my
messenger before thy face, which shall prepare thy way before
thee.
 7:28  For I say unto you, Among those that are born of women
there is not a greater prophet than John the Baptist: but he
that is least in the kingdom of God is greater than he.
 7:29  And all the people that heard [him], and the publicans,
justified God, being baptized with the baptism of John.
 7:30  But the Pharisees and lawyers rejected the counsel of
God against themselves, being not baptized of him.
 7:31  And the Lord said, Whereunto then shall I liken the men
of this generation? and to what are they like?
 7:32  They are like unto children sitting in the marketplace,
and calling one to another, and saying, We have piped unto you,
and ye have not danced; we have mourned to you, and ye have not
wept.
 7:33  For John the Baptist came neither eating bread nor
drinking wine; and ye say, He hath a devil.
 7:34  The Son of man is come eating and drinking; and ye say,
Behold a gluttonous man, and a winebibber, a friend of
publicans and sinners!
 7:35  But wisdom is justified of all her children.
 7:36  And one of the Pharisees desired him that he would eat
with him. And he went into the Pharisee's house, and sat down
to meat.
 7:37  And, behold, a woman in the city, which was a sinner,
when she knew that [Jesus] sat at meat in the Pharisee's house,
brought an alabaster box of ointment,
 7:38  And stood at his feet behind [him] weeping, and began to
wash his feet with tears, and did wipe [them] with the hairs of
her head, and kissed his feet, and anointed [them] with the
ointment.
 7:39  Now when the Pharisee which had bidden him saw [it], he
spake within himself, saying, This man, if he were a prophet,
would have known who and what manner of woman [this is] that
toucheth him: for she is a sinner.
 7:40  And Jesus answering said unto him, Simon, I have
somewhat to say unto thee. And he saith, Master, say on.
 7:41  There was a certain creditor which had two debtors: the
one owed five hundred pence, and the other fifty.
 7:42  And when they had nothing to pay, he frankly forgave
them both. Tell me therefore, which of them will love him most?
 7:43  Simon answered and said, I suppose that [he], to whom he
forgave most. And he said unto him, Thou hast rightly judged.
 7:44  And he turned to the woman, and said unto Simon, Seest
thou this woman? I entered into thine house, thou gavest me no
water for my feet: but she hath washed my feet with tears, and
wiped [them] with the hairs of her head.
 7:45  Thou gavest me no kiss: but this woman since the time I
came in hath not ceased to kiss my feet.
 7:46  My head with oil thou didst not anoint: but this woman
hath anointed my feet with ointment.
 7:47  Wherefore I say unto thee, Her sins, which are many, are
forgiven; for she loved much: but to whom little is forgiven,
[the same] loveth little.
 7:48  And he said unto her, Thy sins are forgiven.
 7:49  And they that sat at meat with him began to say within
themselves, Who is this that forgiveth sins also?
 7:50  And he said to the woman, Thy faith hath saved thee; go
in peace.
