1 Entonces Jesús tomó una barca para cruzar nuevamente el lago hacia la ciudad donde él vivía.
1 He entered into a boat and crossed over, and came into his own city.
2 Allí le trajeron a un hombre paralítico acostado en una estera. Cuando Jesús vio cuánto confiaban en él, le dijo al paralítico: “¡Anímate, amigo mío! Tus pecados están perdonados”.
2 Behold, 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.”
3 En respuesta a esto, algunos de los maestros religiosos decían para sí mismos: “¡Está blasfemando!”
3 Behold, some of the scribes said to themselves, “This man blasphemes.”
4 Pero Jesús sabía lo que ellos estaban pensando. Entonces les preguntó: “¿Por qué tienen pensamientos malvados en sus corazones?
4 Jesus, knowing their thoughts, said, “Why do you think evil in your hearts?
5 ¿Qué es más fácil decir, ‘tus pecados están perdonados’, o ‘levántate y camina’?
5 For which is easier, to say, ‘Your sins are forgiven;’ or to say, ‘Get up, and walk’?
6 Pero ahora, para convencerlos de que el Hijo del hombre tiene autoridad para perdonar pecados…” Dirigiéndose al hombre paralítico, le dijo: “¡Levántate, toma tu estera y vete a casa!”
6 But 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.”
7 El hombre se levantó y se fue a su casa.
7 He arose and departed to his house.
8 Cuando las multitudes vieron lo que había sucedido, estaban atemorizados. Entonces alabaron a Dios por haber dado a los seres humanos semejante poder.
8 But when the multitudes saw it, they marveled and glorified God, who had given such authority to men.
9 Cuando Jesús se fue de allí, vio a un hombre llamado Mateo que estaba sentado en su cabina de cobro de impuestos. Jesús lo llamó diciéndole “Sígueme”. Entonces él se levantó y siguió a Jesús.
9 As 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.
10 Mientras Jesús comía en la casa de Mateo, muchos recaudadores de impuestos vinieron y se sentaron en la mesa con él y sus discípulos.
10 As he sat in the house, behold, many tax collectors and sinners came and sat down with Jesus and his disciples.
11 Y cuando los fariseos vieron esto, le preguntaron a los discípulos de Jesús: “¿Por qué el Maestro de ustedes come con los recaudadores de impuestos y pecadores?”
11 When the Pharisees saw it, they said to his disciples, “Why does your teacher eat with tax collectors and sinners?”
12 Cuando Jesús escuchó la pregunta, respondió: “Los que están sanos no necesitan de un médico, pero los que están enfermos, sí.
12 When Jesus heard it, he said to them, “Those who are healthy have no need for a physician, but those who are sick do.
13 Vayan y descubran lo que esto significa: ‘quiero misericordia, no sacrificio. Porque no vine a llamar a los que hacen el bien—Vine a llamar a los pecadores’”.
13 But 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.”
14 Entonces los discípulos de Juan vinieron y le preguntaron: “¿Por qué nosotros y los fariseos ayunamos a menudo y tus discípulos no lo hacen?”
14 Then John’s disciples came to him, saying, “Why do we and the Pharisees fast often, but your disciples don’t fast?”
15 “¿Acaso los invitados a la boda lloran cuando el novio está con ellos?” respondió Jesús. “Pero viene el tiempo cuando el novio ya no estará y entonces ayunarán.
15 Jesus 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.
16 Nadie pone un parche nuevo en ropas viejas, de lo contrario, se encogerá y hará que la rotura luzca peor.
16 No 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.
17 Nadie echa tampoco el vino nuevo en odres viejos, de lo contrario los odres podrían romperse, derramando así el vino y dañando los odres. No, el vino nuevo se coloca en odres nuevos, y así ambos perduran”.
17 Neither 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.”
18 Mientras él les decía esto, uno de los oficiales principales llegó y se postró delante de él. “Mi hija acaba de morir”, le dijo el hombre a Jesús. “Pero sé que si tú vas y colocas tu mano sobre ella, volverá a vivir”.
18 While 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.”
19 Jesús y sus discípulos se levantaron y lo siguieron.
19 Jesus got up and followed him, as did his disciples.
20 En ese momento, una mujer que había estado enferma con sangrado durante doce años, venía detrás de él y tocó el dobladillo de su manto.
20 Behold, a woman who had a discharge of blood for twelve years came behind him, and touched the fringe of his garment;
21 Ella había pensado para sí: “Si tan solo puedo llegar a tocar su manto, seré sanada”.
21 for she said within herself, “If I just touch his garment, I will be made well.”
22 Jesús se dio vuelta y la vio. “Alégrate hija, pues tu confianza en mi te ha sanado”, le dijo. Y la mujer fue sanada de inmediato.
22 But 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.
23 Jesús llegó a la casa del oficial. Vio a los que tocaban las flautas y escuchó a la multitud que lloraba a gritos.
23 When Jesus came into the ruler’s house and saw the flute players and the crowd in noisy disorder,
24 “Por favor, salgan” – les dijo – “porque esta niña no está muerta, sino que simplemente está dormida”. Pero ellos se rieron y se burlaron de él.
24 he said to them, “Make room, because the girl isn’t dead, but sleeping.” They were ridiculing him.
25 Sin embargo, cuando la multitud había sido despedida, Jesús entró y tomó a la niña por la mano y esta se levantó.
25 But when the crowd was sent out, he entered in, took her by the hand, and the girl arose.
26 Y la noticia sobre lo que había ocurrido se esparció por toda esa región.
26 The report of this went out into all that land.
27 Al seguir Jesús su camino, dos hombres ciegos lo seguían y le gritaban: “¡Hijo de David, ten misericordia de nosotros!”
27 As Jesus passed by from there, two blind men followed him, calling out and saying, “Have mercy on us, son of David!”
28 Y cuando Jesús entró a la casa donde se alojaba, los hombres ciegos entraron también. “¿Están convencidos de que yo puedo hacer esto?” les preguntó. “Sí, Señor”, respondieron ellos.
28 When 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.”
29 Entonces Jesús tocó los ojos de ellos, y dijo: “¡Por la confianza que tienen en mí, así será!”
29 Then he touched their eyes, saying, “According to your faith be it done to you.”
30 Y ellos pudieron ver. Jesús les advirtió: “Asegúrense de que nadie sepa esto”.
30 Then their eyes were opened. Jesus strictly commanded them, saying, “See that no one knows about this.”
31 Pero ellos se fueron y dieron a conocer acerca de Jesús por todas partes.
31 But they went out and spread abroad his fame in all that land.
32 Cuando Jesús y sus discípulos ya se marchaban, trajeron ante Jesús a un hombre que estaba mudo y endemoniado.
32 As they went out, behold, a mute man who was demon possessed was brought to him.
33 Cuando el demonio fue expulsado de él, el hombre habló, y las multitudes estaban maravilladas. “Nunca antes había ocurrido algo como esto en Israel”, decían.
33 When the demon was cast out, the mute man spoke. The multitudes marveled, saying, “Nothing like this has ever been seen in Israel!”
34 Pero los fariseos comentaban diciendo: “el echa fuera los demonios con el poder del jefe de los demonios”.
34 But the Pharisees said, “By the prince of the demons, he casts out demons.”
35 Jesús iba a todas partes, visitando ciudades y aldeas. Enseñaba en sus sinagogas, les enseñaba acerca de la buena noticia del reino, y sanaba todo tipo de enfermedades.
35 Jesus 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.
36 Cuando veía las multitudes, Jesús sentía gran compasión por ellos, porque estaban atribulados y desamparados, como ovejas sin pastor.
36 But when he saw the multitudes, he was moved with compassion for them because they were harassed and scattered, like sheep without a shepherd.
37 Entonces le dijo a sus discípulos, “la cosecha es grande, pero hay apenas unos pocos trabajadores.
37 Then he said to his disciples, “The harvest indeed is plentiful, but the laborers are few.
38 Oren al Señor de la cosecha, y pídanle que envíe más trabajadores para su cosecha”.
38 Pray therefore that the Lord of the harvest will send out laborers into his harvest.”

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
By His own city here he means Capernaum. For that which gave Him birth was Bethlehem; that which brought Him up, Nazareth; that which had Him continually inhabiting it, Capernaum. This paralytic, however, was different from that one who is set forth in John.

For Christ called not the just nor the chaste to repentance, but the ungodly, and the licentious, and the unjust; His words being, "I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance." For the heavenly Father desires rather the repentance than the punishment of the sinner.
And not merely in works, but also in faith, has God preserved the will of man free and under his own control, saying, "According to thy faith be it unto thee;" thus showing that there is a faith specially belonging to man, since he has an opinion specially his own.
… all things are become new;" and "because our salvation is nearer than when we believed;" and because "the night is far spent, the day is at hand;" and because Thou wilt crown Thy year with blessing, sending the labourers of Thy goodness into Thy harvest, in the sowing of which others have laboured, sending also into another field, whose harvest …

For He said not, what we find Him saying after this, "Believe ye that I am able to do this?" because He had not as yet given proof of His power.
