And hearing about Yahushua, he sent elders of the Yehudim to Him, asking Him to come and heal his servant.
4.
And when they came to Yahushua, they begged Him earnestly, saying, 'He is worthy for You to grant this to him,
5.
for he loves our nation, and has built the congregation for us.'
6.
So Yahushua went with them. However, He was not far from the house when the captain sent friends to Him, saying to Him, 'Master, do not trouble Yourself, for I am not worthy that You should come under my roof.

13.
And when the Master saw her, He had compassion on her and said to her, 'Do not weep.'
14.
And coming near He touched the bier, and those bearing it stood still. And He said, 'Young man, I say to you, arise.'
15.
And he who was dead sat up and began to speak, and He gave him to his mother.

And the taught ones of Yohanan reported to him about all this.
19.
And Yohanan, calling two of his taught ones near, sent to Yahushua, saying, 'Are You the Coming One, or should we look for another?'
20.
And coming to Him, the men said, 'Yohanan the Immerser has sent us to You, saying, 'Are You the Coming One, or should we look for another?''
21.
And in the same hour He healed many of diseases, and afflictions, and wicked spirits. And He gave sight to many blind ones.
22.
And Yahushua answering, said to them, 'Go, report to Yohanan what you have seen and heard: blind receive sight, lame do walk, lepers are cleansed, deaf do hear, dead are raised, the Good News is brought to the poor.
23.
'And blessed is he who shall not stumble in Me.'
24.
And when the messengers of Yohanan had left, He began to speak to the crowds concerning Yohanan, 'What did you go out into the wilderness to see? A reed shaken by the wind?
25.
'But what did you go out to see? A man dressed in soft garments? Look, those who are splendidly dressed and living in luxury are in the houses of sovereigns.
26.
'But what did you go out to see? A prophet? Yea, I say to you, and more than a prophet.
27.
'This is he concerning whom it has been written, 'See, I send My messenger before Your face, who shall prepare Your way before You.'
28.
'For I say to you, among those born of women there is not a greater prophet than Yohanan the Immerser, but he who is least in the reign of Elohim is greater than he.'
29.
And all the people, even the tax collectors, when they heard, declared Elohim righteous, having been immersed with the immersion of Yohanan.
30.
But the Pharisees and those learned in the Torah rejected the counsel of Elohim for themselves, not having been immersed by him.
31.
And the Master said, 'To what then shall I compare the men of this generation, and what are they like?
32.
'They are like children sitting in the market-place and calling to each other, saying, 'We played the flute for you and you did not dance, we lamented for you and you did not weep.'
33.
'For Yohanan the Immerser came neither eating bread nor drinking wine, and you say, 'He has a demon.'
34.
'The Son of Adam has come eating and drinking, and you say, 'Look, a man, a glutton and a winedrinker, a friend of tax collectors and sinners!'
35.
'And wisdom is declared right by all her children.'

38.
And standing behind, at His feet, weeping, she began to wet His feet with her tears, and wiping them with the hair of her head, and was kissing His feet and anointing them with the perfume.
39.
And when the Pharisee who had invited Him saw this, he spoke to himself, saying, 'This One, if He were a prophet, would know who and what kind of woman this is who is touching Him, for she is a sinner.'

44.
And turning to the woman He said to Shim'on, 'Do you see this woman? I came into your house - you gave Me no water for My feet, but she has wetted My feet with her tears and wiped them with the hair of her head.
