Lk Chapter 5 Verses 1-39

5:1
Now
it
came
about
that
while
the
people
came
pushing
to
be
near
him,
and
to
have
knowledge
of
the
word
of
God,
he
was
by
a
wide
stretch
of
water
named
Gennesaret;
5:2
And
he
saw
two
boats
by
the
edge
of
the
water,
but
the
fishermen
had
gone out
of
them
and
were
washing
their
nets.
5:3
And
he
got
into
one
of
the
boats,
the
property
of
Simon,
and
made
a
request
to
him
to go
a
little
way out
from
the
land.
And
being
seated
he
gave
the
people
teaching
from
the
boat.
5:4
And
when
his talk
was
ended,
he
said
to
Simon,
Go out
into
deep
water,
and
let
down
your
nets
for
fish.
5:5
And
Simon,
answering,
said,
Master,
we
were working
all
night
and
we
took
nothing:
but
at
your
word
I
will
let
down
the
nets.
5:6
And
when
they
had
done
this,
they
got
such
a
great
number
of
fish
that
it
seemed
as
if
their
nets
would
be
broken;
5:7
And
they
made
signs
to
their
friends
in
the
other
boat
to
come to
their
help.
And
they
came,
and
the
two
boats
were
so
full
that
they
were
going down.
5:8
But
Simon,
when
he
saw
it,
went down
at
the
knees
of
Jesus
and
said,
Go away
from
me,
O
Lord,
for
I
am
a
sinner.
5:9
For
he
was
full
of
wonder
and
so
were
all
those
who
were
with
him,
at
the
number
of
fish
which
they
had
taken;
5:10
And
so
were
James
and
John,
the
sons
of
Zebedee,
who
were working
with
Simon.
And
Jesus
said
to
Simon,
Have
no
fear;
from
this
time
forward
you
will
be
a
fisher
of
men.
5:11
And
when
they
had
got
their
boats
to
the
land,
they
gave
up
everything
and
went
after
him.
5:12
And
it
came
about
that
while
he
was
in
one
of
the
towns,
there
was
a
leper
there:
and
when
he
saw
Jesus
he
went down
on
his
face
in
prayer
to
him,
saying,
Lord,
if
it
is
your
pleasure,
you
have
power
to
make
me
clean.
5:13
And
he
put
out
his
hand
to
him
and
said,
It
is
my
pleasure;
be
clean.
And
straight away
his
disease
went
from
him.
5:14
And
he
gave
him
orders:
Say
nothing
to
any
man,
but
let
the
priest
see
you
and
give
an
offering
so
that
you
may
be
made
clean,
as
the
law
of
Moses
says,
and
for
a
witness
to
them.
5:15
But
news
of
him
went out
all
the
more,
in
every
direction,
and
great
numbers
of
people
came
together
to
give
hearing
to
his
words
and
to
be
made
well
from
their
diseases.
5:16
But
he
went away
by himself
to
a
waste
place
for
prayer.
5:17
And
it
came
about
that
on
one
of
these
days
he
was
teaching;
and
some
Pharisees
and
teachers
of
the
law
were
seated
there,
who
had
come
from
every
town
of
Galilee
and
Judaea
and
from
Jerusalem;
and
the
power
of
the
Lord
was
with
him,
to
make
those
who
were
ill
free
from
their
diseases.
5:18
And
some
men
had
with
them,
on
a
bed,
a
man
who
was
ill,
without
power
of
moving;
and
they
made
attempts
to
get
him
in
and
put
him
before
Jesus.
5:19
And
because
of
the
mass
of
people,
there
was
no way
to
get
him
in;
so
they
went up
on
the
top
of
the
house
and
let
him
down
through
the
roof,
on
his
bed,
into
the
middle
in front
of
Jesus.
5:20
And
seeing
their
faith
he
said,
Man,
you
have
forgiveness
for
your
sins.
5:21
And
the
scribes
and
Pharisees
were
having
an
argument,
saying,
Who
is
this,
who
has
no
respect
for
God?
who
is able
to
give
forgiveness
for
sins,
but
God
only?
5:22
But
Jesus,
who
had
knowledge
of
their
thoughts,
said
to
them,
Why
are you
reasoning
in
your
hearts?
5:23
Which
is
the
simpler:
to
say,
You
have
forgiveness
for
your
sins;
or
to
say,
Get up
and
go?
5:24
But
so
that
you
may
see
that
on
earth
the
Son
of
man
has
authority
for
the
forgiveness
of
sins,
(he
said
to
the
man
who
was
ill,)
I
say
to
you,
Get up,
and
take
up
your
bed,
and
go into
your
house.
5:25
And
straight away
he
got up
before
them,
and
took
up
his
bed
and
went away
to
his
house
giving
praise
to
God.
5:26
And
wonder
overcame
them
all,
and
they
gave
glory
to
God;
and
they
were
full
of
fear,
saying,
We
have seen
strange
things
today.
5:27
And
after
these
things
he
went out,
and
saw
Levi,
a
tax-farmer,
seated
at
the
place
where
taxes
were
taken,
and
said
to
him,
Come
after
me.
5:28
And
giving
up
his
business,
he
got up
and
went
after
him.
5:29
And
Levi
made
a
great
feast
for
him
in
his
house:
and
a
great
number
of
tax-farmers
and
others
were
seated
at
table
with
them.
5:30
And
the
Pharisees
and
their
scribes
made
protests
against
his
disciples,
saying,
Why
do you
take
food and drink
with
tax-farmers
and
sinners?
5:31
And
Jesus,
answering,
said
to
them,
Those
who
are
well
have
no
need
of
a
medical
man,
but
those
who
are
ill.
5:32
I
have
come,
not
to
get
the
upright,
but
sinners,
so
that
they
may
be
turned
from
their
sins.
5:33
And
they
said
to
him,
The
disciples
of
John
frequently
go
without
food,
and
make
prayers,
and
so
do
the
disciples
of
the
Pharisees;
but
your
disciples
take
food and drink.
5:34
And
Jesus
said,
Are you
able
to
make
the
friends
of
the
newly-married
man
go
without
food
when
he
is
with
them?
5:35
But
the
days
will
come
when
he
will
be
taken away
from
them,
and
then
they
will
go
without
food.
5:36
And
he
said
to
them,
in
a
story,
No
man
takes
a
bit
of
cloth
from
a
new
coat
and
puts
it
on to
an
old
coat,
for
so
the
new
coat
would
be
damaged
and
the
bit
from
the
new
would not
go
well
with
the
old.
5:37
And
no
man
puts
new
wine
into
old
wine-skins,
for
fear
that
the
skins
will
be
burst
by
the
new
wine,
and
the
wine
be
let out,
and
the
skins
come to
destruction.
5:38
But
new
wine
has to
be
put
into
new
wine-skins.
5:39
And
no
man,
having had
old
wine,
has
any
desire
for
new,
for
he
says,
The
old
is
better.
