Clementine Vulgate, 1598
1He entered into a boat and crossed over, and came into his own city.
1Et ascendens in naviculam, transfretavit, et venit in civitatem suam.
2Behold, they brought to him a man who was paralyzed, lying on a bed. Jesus, seeing their faith, said to the paralytic, “Son, cheer up! Your sins are forgiven you.”
2Et ecce offerebant ei paralyticum jacentem in lecto. Et videns Jesus fidem illorum, dixit paralytico: Confide fili, remittuntur tibi peccata tua.
3Behold, some of the scribes said to themselves, “This man blasphemes.”
3Et ecce quidam de scribis dixerunt intra se: Hic blasphemat.
4Jesus, knowing their thoughts, said, “Why do you think evil in your hearts?
4Et cum vidisset Jesus cogitationes eorum, dixit: Ut quid cogitatis mala in cordibus vestris?
5For which is easier, to say, ‘Your sins are forgiven;’ or to say, ‘Get up, and walk’?
5Quid est facilius dicere: Dimittuntur tibi peccata tua: an dicere: Surge, et ambula?
6But that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins—” (then he said to the paralytic), “Get up, and take up your mat, and go to your house.”
6Ut autem sciatis, quia Filius hominis habet potestatem in terra dimittendi peccata, tunc ait paralytico: Surge, tolle lectum tuum, et vade in domum tuam.
7He arose and departed to his house.
7Et surrexit, et abiit in domum suam.
8But when the multitudes saw it, they marveled and glorified God, who had given such authority to men.
8Videntes autem turbæ timuerunt, et glorificaverunt Deum, qui dedit potestatem talem hominibus.
9As Jesus passed by from there, he saw a man called Matthew sitting at the tax collection office. He said to him, “Follow me.” He got up and followed him.
9Et, cum transiret inde Jesus, vidit hominem sedentem in telonio, Matthæum nomine. Et ait illi: Sequere me. Et surgens, secutus est eum.
10As he sat in the house, behold, many tax collectors and sinners came and sat down with Jesus and his disciples.
10Et factum est, discumbente eo in domo, ecce multi publicani et peccatores venientes, discumbebant cum Jesu, et discipulis ejus.
11When the Pharisees saw it, they said to his disciples, “Why does your teacher eat with tax collectors and sinners?”
11Et videntes pharisæi, dicebant discipulis ejus: Quare cum publicanis et peccatoribus manducat magister vester?
12When Jesus heard it, he said to them, “Those who are healthy have no need for a physician, but those who are sick do.
12At Jesus audiens, ait: Non est opus valentibus medicus, sed male habentibus.
13But you go and learn what this means: ‘I desire mercy, and not sacrifice,’ for I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.”
13Euntes autem discite quid est: Misericordiam volo, et non sacrificium. Non enim veni vocare justos, sed peccatores.
14Then John’s disciples came to him, saying, “Why do we and the Pharisees fast often, but your disciples don’t fast?”
14Tunc accesserunt ad eum discipuli Joannis, dicentes: Quare nos, et pharisæi, jejunamus frequenter: discipuli autem tui non jejunant?
15Jesus said to them, “Can the friends of the bridegroom mourn as long as the bridegroom is with them? But the days will come when the bridegroom will be taken away from them, and then they will fast.
15Et ait illis Jesus: Numquid possunt filii sponsi lugere, quamdiu cum illis est sponsus? Venient autem dies cum auferetur ab eis sponsus: et tunc jejunabunt.
16No one puts a piece of unshrunk cloth on an old garment; for the patch would tear away from the garment, and a worse hole is made.
16Nemo autem immittit commissuram panni rudis in vestimentum vetus: tollit enim plenitudinem ejus a vestimento, et pejor scissura fit.
17Neither do people put new wine into old wineskins, or else the skins would burst, and the wine be spilled, and the skins ruined. No, they put new wine into fresh wineskins, and both are preserved.”
17Neque mittunt vinum novum in utres veteres: alioquin rumpuntur utres, et vinum effunditur, et utres pereunt. Sed vinum novum in utres novos mittunt: et ambo conservantur.
18While he told these things to them, behold, a ruler came and worshiped him, saying, “My daughter has just died, but come and lay your hand on her, and she will live.”
18Hæc illo loquente ad eos, ecce princeps unus accessit, et adorabat eum, dicens: Domine, filia mea modo defuncta est: sed veni, impone manum tuam super eam, et vivet.
19Jesus got up and followed him, as did his disciples.
19Et surgens Jesus, sequebatur eum, et discipuli ejus.
20Behold, a woman who had a discharge of blood for twelve years came behind him, and touched the fringe of his garment;
20Et ecce mulier, quæ sanguinis fluxum patiebatur duodecim annis, accessit retro, et tetigit fimbriam vestimenti ejus.
21for she said within herself, “If I just touch his garment, I will be made well.”
21Dicebat enim intra se: Si tetigero tantum vestimentum ejus, salva ero.
22But Jesus, turning around and seeing her, said, “Daughter, cheer up! Your faith has made you well.” And the woman was made well from that hour.
22At Jesus conversus, et videns eam, dixit: Confide, filia, fides tua te salvam fecit. Et salva facta est mulier ex illa hora.
23When Jesus came into the ruler’s house and saw the flute players and the crowd in noisy disorder,
23Et cum venisset Jesus in domum principis, et vidisset tibicines et turbam tumultuantem, dicebat:
24he said to them, “Make room, because the girl isn’t dead, but sleeping.” They were ridiculing him.
24Recedite: non est enim mortua puella, sed dormit. Et deridebant eum.
25But when the crowd was sent out, he entered in, took her by the hand, and the girl arose.
25Et cum ejecta esset turba, intravit: et tenuit manum ejus, et surrexit puella.
26The report of this went out into all that land.
26Et exiit fama hæc in universam terram illam.
27As Jesus passed by from there, two blind men followed him, calling out and saying, “Have mercy on us, son of David!”
27Et transeunte inde Jesu, secuti sunt eum duo cæci, clamantes, et dicentes: Miserere nostri, fili David.
28When he had come into the house, the blind men came to him. Jesus said to them, “Do you believe that I am able to do this?” They told him, “Yes, Lord.”
28Cum autem venisset domum, accesserunt ad eum cæci. Et dicit eis Jesus: Creditis quia hoc possum facere vobis? Dicunt ei: Utique, Domine.
29Then he touched their eyes, saying, “According to your faith be it done to you.”
29Tunc tetigit oculos eorum, dicens: Secundum fidem vestram, fiat vobis.
30Then their eyes were opened. Jesus strictly commanded them, saying, “See that no one knows about this.”
30Et aperti sunt oculi eorum: et comminatus est illis Jesus, dicens: Videte ne quis sciat.
31But they went out and spread abroad his fame in all that land.
31Illi autem exeuntes, diffamaverunt eum in tota terra illa.
32As they went out, behold, a mute man who was demon possessed was brought to him.
32Egressis autem illis, ecce obtulerunt ei hominem mutum, dæmonium habentem.
33When the demon was cast out, the mute man spoke. The multitudes marveled, saying, “Nothing like this has ever been seen in Israel!”
33Et ejecto dæmonio, locutus est mutus, et miratæ sunt turbæ, dicentes: Numquam apparuit sic in Israël.
34But the Pharisees said, “By the prince of the demons, he casts out demons.”
34Pharisæi autem dicebant: In principe dæmoniorum ejicit dæmones.
35Jesus went about all the cities and the villages, teaching in their synagogues and preaching the Good News of the Kingdom, and healing every disease and every sickness among the people.
35Et circuibat Jesus omnes civitates, et castella, docens in synagogis eorum, et prædicans Evangelium regni, et curans omnem languorem, et omnem infirmitatem.
36But when he saw the multitudes, he was moved with compassion for them because they were harassed and scattered, like sheep without a shepherd.
36Videns autem turbas, misertus est eis: quia erant vexati, et jacentes sicut oves non habentes pastorem.
37Then he said to his disciples, “The harvest indeed is plentiful, but the laborers are few.
37Tunc dicit discipulis suis: Messis quidem multa, operarii autem pauci.
38Pray therefore that the Lord of the harvest will send out laborers into his harvest.”
38Rogate ergo Dominum messis, ut mittat operarios in messem suam.
