And seeing their faith Jesus said to the paralytic, “Courage, son; your sins are forgiven you!” ³ But then, some of the scribes said within themselves, “This man blasphemes!” ⁴ So Jesus, knowing their thoughts, said: “Why do you think evil in your hearts? ⁵ So which is easier, to say ‘Your sins are forgiven’, or to say ‘Get up and walk’? ⁶ But so that you may know that the Son of the Man has authority on the earth to forgive sins”—then He says to the paralytic, “On your feet, pick up your pallet and go to your house”. ⁷ So he got up and went off to his house. ⁸ And seeing it the crowds marveled and glorified God, the one giving such authority to the people. ⁹ And going on from there Jesus saw a man named Matthew sitting at the tax office, and He says to him, “Follow me”. So getting up he followed Him. ¹⁰ Now it happened, as He was reclining at the table in the house, that behold, many tax collectors and sinners had come and were reclining at the table with Jesus and His disciples. ¹¹ Upon seeing this the Pharisees said to His disciples, “Why does your teacher eat and drink with the tax collectors and sinners?” ¹² But Jesus heard it, so He said to them: “Those who are strong do not need a physician, but those who are sick. ¹³ But go and learn what this means, ‘I desire mercy and not sacrifice’. For I did not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.” ¹⁴ Then the disciples of John come to Him saying, “Why is it that we and the Pharisees fast about many things, but your disciples do not fast?” ¹⁵ So Jesus said to them: “Can the friends of the bridegroom mourn as long as the bridegroom is with them?

And the crowds marveled saying, “Never was it seen like this in Israel!” ³⁴ But the Pharisees said, “He casts out demons by the ruler of the demons.” ³⁵ Then Jesus went around to all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues and preaching the Gospel of the kingdom, and healing every disease and every illness among the people. ³⁶ Seeing the crowds He was moved with compassion for them, because they were harassed and prostrated, like sheep without a shepherd. ³⁷ Then He says to His disciples: “The harvest truly is plentiful, but the workers are few. ³⁸ Therefore pray to the Lord of the harvest that He may send out workers into His harvest.”

¹ “Do not let your (pl) heart be distressed; you believe into God and you believe into me. ² In my Father’s house are many dwellings (otherwise I would have told you). I am going away to prepare a place for you. ³ And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and take you to myself, so that where I am you may be also. ⁴ Now you know where I am going, and you know the way. ⁵ Thomas says to Him, “Lord, we don’t know where you are going, so how can we know the way?” ⁶ Jesus says to him: “I am the Way and the Truth and the Life. No one goes to the Father except through me. ⁷ If you had known me, you would have known my Father as well; from now on you both know Him and have seen Him.” ⁸ Philip says to Him, “Lord, show us the Father, and it’s enough for us.” ⁹ Jesus says to him: “Such a long time I’ve been with you, and you haven’t known me, Philip? He who has seen me has seen the Father; so how can you say, ‘Show us the Father’? ¹⁰ Don’t you believe that I am in the Father and the Father is in me? The words that I speak to you I do not speak on my own; rather it is the Father who dwells in me who does the works. ¹¹ Believe me that I am in the Father and the Father is in me; or else, believe me because of the works themselves. ¹² “Most assuredly I say to you, the one believing into me, he too will do the works that I do; in fact he will do greater works than these, because I am going to my Father. ¹³ Further, whatever you (pl) may ask in my name, that I will do, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son. ¹⁴ If you ask anything in my name, I will do it! ¹⁵ If you love me, keep my commandments. ¹⁶ Also, I will ask the Father and He will give you another Helper, so that He may stay with you throughout the age ¹⁷ —the Spirit of the Truth, whom the world is unable to receive, because it neither sees Him nor knows Him; but you do know Him, because He is staying with you and will be in you. ¹⁸ I will not leave you orphans; I will come to you [shortly]. ¹⁹ In a little while the world will no longer see me, but you will see me. Because I live you also will live. ²⁰ In that day you will know that I am in my Father, and you in me, and I in you. ²¹ The one who has my commandments and keeps them, he is the one who loves me. Now the one who loves me will be loved by my Father; and I will love him, and reveal myself to him. ²² Judas (not the Iscariot) says to Him, “Lord, just how is it that You are going to reveal Yourself to us and not to the world?” ²³ Jesus answered and said to him: “If anyone loves me he will keep my word. So my Father will love him, and we will come to him and make our home with him. ²⁴ The one who doesn’t love me doesn’t keep my words; further, the word which you hear is not mine but the Father’s who sent me. ²⁵ “I have spoken these things to you while being with you. ²⁶ But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, He will teach you all things and remind you of everything I said to you. ²⁷ “Peace I leave with you, my peace I give to you; it’s not like the world gives that I give to you. Do not let your heart be distressed or intimidated. ²⁸ “You heard me say to you, ‘I am going away and I am coming back to you.’ If you loved me you would have been glad that I said, ‘I am going to the Father’, because my Father is greater than I. ²⁹ I have told you now, before it happens, so that when it does happen you may believe. ³⁰ “I will no longer talk much with you, because the ruler of the world is approaching; actually, he has nothing in me. ³¹ Rather, I habitually do just as the Father commanded me, so that the world may know that I love the Father. “Get up, let’s leave here.
