	HAWEIS Haweis New Testament	ESV English Standard Version	NIV New International Version
1	AND it came to pass, as the multitude were thronging upon him, in order to hear the word of God, that he was standing by the lake of Gennesaret:	On one occasion, while the crowd was pressing in on him to hear the word of God, he was standing by the lake of Gennesaret,	One day as Jesus was standing by the Lake of Gennesaret, the people were crowding around him and listening to the word of God.
2	and he saw two vessels a-ground near the lake: but the fishermen were gone out of them, and washing their nets.	and he saw two boats by the lake, but the fishermen had gone out of them and were washing their nets.	He saw at the water’s edge two boats, left there by the fishermen, who were washing their nets.
3	Then he went on board one of the vessels, which was Simon's, and desired him to put off a little from the land: and sitting down, he taught the multitudes out of the vessel.	Getting into one of the boats, which was Simon’s, he asked him to put out a little from the land. And he sat down and taught the people from the boat.	He got into one of the boats, the one belonging to Simon, and asked him to put out a little from shore. Then he sat down and taught the people from the boat.
4	And when he ceased speaking, he said to Simon, Go off into deep water, and shoot your nets for a draught.	And when he had finished speaking, he said to Simon, “Put out into the deep and let down your nets for a catch.”	When he had finished speaking, he said to Simon, “Put out into deep water, and let down the nets for a catch.”
5	And Simon answering, said unto him, Sir, we have been toiling all night, and have taken nothing: but at thy command I will shoot the net.	And Simon answered, “Master, we toiled all night and took nothing! But at your word I will let down the nets.”	Simon answered, “Master, we’ve worked hard all night and haven’t caught anything. But because you say so, I will let down the nets.”
6	And having done so, they inclosed a prodigious multitude of fishes; and their net was broken.	And when they had done this, they enclosed a large number of fish, and their nets were breaking.	When they had done so, they caught such a large number of fish that their nets began to break.
7	And they made signals to their partners in the other vessels, that they should come to their assistance. And they came, and filled both the vessels, so that they were ready to founder.	They signaled to their partners in the other boat to come and help them. And they came and filled both the boats, so that they began to sink.	So they signaled their partners in the other boat to come and help them, and they came and filled both boats so full that they began to sink.
8	Then Simon Peter seeing it, fell down on his knees before Jesus, saying, Go from me; for I am a sinful man, O Lord!	But when Simon Peter saw it, he fell down at Jesus’ knees, saying, “Depart from me, for I am a sinful man, O Lord.”	When Simon Peter saw this, he fell at Jesus’ knees and said, “Go away from me, Lord; I am a sinful man!”
9	For amazement had seized on him, and on all who were with him, at the draught of fishes which they had taken:	For he and all who were with him were astonished at the catch of fish that they had taken,	For he and all his companions were astonished at the catch of fish they had taken,
10	as also on James and John the sons of Zebedee, who were partners with Simon. And Jesus said to Simon, Fear not: henceforward thou shalt catch men.	and so also were James and John, sons of Zebedee, who were partners with Simon. And Jesus said to Simon, “Do not be afraid; from now on you will be catching men.”	and so were James and John, the sons of Zebedee, Simon’s partners. Then Jesus said to Simon, “Don’t be afraid; from now on you will fish for people.”
11	And when they had brought their vessels on shore, they left all, and followed him.	And when they had brought their boats to land, they left everything and followed him.	So they pulled their boats up on shore, left everything and followed him.
12	And it came to pass as he was just at one of the cities, behold, a man full of leprosy! and seeing Jesus, he fell on his face, and besought him, saying, Lord, if thou wilt, thou canst make me clean.	While he was in one of the cities, there came a man full of leprosy. And when he saw Jesus, he fell on his face and begged him, “Lord, if you will, you can make me clean.”	While Jesus was in one of the towns, a man came along who was covered with leprosy. When he saw Jesus, he fell with his face to the ground and begged him, “Lord, if you are willing, you can make me clean.”
13	And he stretching out his hand touched him, saying, I will: be thou cleansed. And instantly the leprosy departed from him.	And Jesus stretched out his hand and touched him, saying, “I will; be clean.” And immediately the leprosy left him.	Jesus reached out his hand and touched the man. “I am willing,” he said. “Be clean!” And immediately the leprosy left him.
14	And he commanded him to tell no man: but go shew thyself to the priest, and offer for thy purification, as Moses enjoined, for a testimony unto them.	And he charged him to tell no one, but “go and show yourself to the priest, and make an offering for your cleansing, as Moses commanded, for a proof to them.”	Then Jesus ordered him, “Don’t tell anyone, but go, show yourself to the priest and offer the sacrifices that Moses commanded for your cleansing, as a testimony to them.”
15	Now the discourse concerning him more and more spread through the country: and vast multitudes came together to hear him, and to be cured by him of their disorders.	But now even more the report about him went abroad, and great crowds gathered to hear him and to be healed of their infirmities.	Yet the news about him spread all the more, so that crowds of people came to hear him and to be healed of their sicknesses.
16	But he himself was in the desert for retirement and prayer.	But he would withdraw to desolate places and pray.	But Jesus often withdrew to lonely places and prayed.
17	And on a certain day it happened that he was teaching, and there were sitting Pharisees, and doctors of the law, who had come from every town of Galilee, and Judea, and Jerusalem: and the power of the Lord for healing them was exercised.	On one of those days, as he was teaching, Pharisees and teachers of the law were sitting there, who had come from every village of Galilee and Judea and from Jerusalem. And the power of the Lord was with him to heal.	One day Jesus was teaching, and Pharisees and teachers of the law were sitting there. They had come from every village of Galilee and from Judea and Jerusalem. And the power of the Lord was with Jesus to heal the sick.
18	And behold, men carried on a couch a man who was a paralytic; and sought to bring him into the house, and to place him before him.	And behold, some men were bringing on a bed a man who was paralyzed, and they were seeking to bring him in and lay him before Jesus,	Some men came carrying a paralyzed man on a mat and tried to take him into the house to lay him before Jesus.
19	And not discovering by what means they could introduce him, because of the crowd, they went up to the roof, and through the tiling let him down with his little couch into the midst, before Jesus.	but finding no way to bring him in, because of the crowd, they went up on the roof and let him down with his bed through the tiles into the midst before Jesus.	When they could not find a way to do this because of the crowd, they went up on the roof and lowered him on his mat through the tiles into the middle of the crowd, right in front of Jesus.
20	And seeing their faith, he saith to him, Man, thy sins are forgiven thee.	And when he saw their faith, he said, “Man, your sins are forgiven you.”	When Jesus saw their faith, he said, “Friend, your sins are forgiven.”
21	And the scribes and Pharisees began to reason, saying, Who is this that speaketh blasphemies? Who can forgive sins but God alone?	And the scribes and the Pharisees began to question, saying, “Who is this who speaks blasphemies? Who can forgive sins but God alone?”	The Pharisees and the teachers of the law began thinking to themselves, “Who is this fellow who speaks blasphemy? Who can forgive sins but God alone?”
22	And Jesus knowing their reasoning, in reply said to them, Why do ye reason in your hearts?	When Jesus perceived their thoughts, he answered them, “Why do you question in your hearts?	Jesus knew what they were thinking and asked, “Why are you thinking these things in your hearts?
23	for which is the easier? to say, Thy sins are forgiven; or to say, Arise and walk?	Which is easier, to say, ‘Your sins are forgiven you,’ or to say, ‘Rise and walk’?	Which is easier: to say, ‘Your sins are forgiven,’ or to say, ‘Get up and walk’?
24	But that ye may know that the Son of man hath authority upon earth to forgive sins, (he saith to the paralytic,) I say to thee, Arise, and take up thy couch, and go into thy house.	But that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins”—he said to the man who was paralyzed— “I say to you, rise, pick up your bed and go home.”	But I want you to know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins.” So he said to the paralyzed man, “I tell you, get up, take your mat and go home.”
25	And instantly he rose up before them, took up that on which he had lain, and went away to his house, giving glory to God.	And immediately he rose up before them and picked up what he had been lying on and went home, glorifying God.	Immediately he stood up in front of them, took what he had been lying on and went home praising God.
26	And an extacy of admiration seized upon them all, and they glorified God; and they were filled with awe, saying, We have seen wondrously strange things to-day.	And amazement seized them all, and they glorified God and were filled with awe, saying, “We have seen extraordinary things today.”	Everyone was amazed and gave praise to God. They were filled with awe and said, “We have seen remarkable things today.”
27	And after these things he went out, and saw a farmer of the taxes, named Levi, sitting at the custom-house: and he said unto him, Follow me.	After this he went out and saw a tax collector named Levi, sitting at the tax booth. And he said to him, “Follow me.”	After this, Jesus went out and saw a tax collector by the name of Levi sitting at his tax booth. “Follow me,” Jesus said to him,
28	And leaving all behind, he rose, and followed him.	And leaving everything, he rose and followed him.	and Levi got up, left everything and followed him.
29	And Levi made him a great entertainment at his house and there was a great number of publicans and others, sitting at table with them.	And Levi made him a great feast in his house, and there was a large company of tax collectors and others reclining at table with them.	Then Levi held a great banquet for Jesus at his house, and a large crowd of tax collectors and others were eating with them.
30	And their scribes and Pharisees murmured against his disciples, saying, Why do ye eat and drink with publicans and sinners?	And the Pharisees and their scribes grumbled at his disciples, saying, “Why do you eat and drink with tax collectors and sinners?”	But the Pharisees and the teachers of the law who belonged to their sect complained to his disciples, “Why do you eat and drink with tax collectors and sinners?”
31	And Jesus answering said unto them, They who are well, have no need of a physician: but they who have illness.	And Jesus answered them, “Those who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick.	Jesus answered them, “It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick.
32	I came not to call righteous men, but sinners, to repentance.	I have not come to call the righteous but sinners to repentance.”	I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.”
33	Then said they unto him, Why do the disciples of John observe frequent fasts, and make prayers; but thine are eating and drinking?	And they said to him, “The disciples of John fast often and offer prayers, and so do the disciples of the Pharisees, but yours eat and drink.”	They said to him, “John’s disciples often fast and pray, and so do the disciples of the Pharisees, but yours go on eating and drinking.”
34	And he said unto them, Can you make the children of the bridechamber fast, as long as the bridegroom is with them?	And Jesus said to them, “Can you make wedding guests fast while the bridegroom is with them?	Jesus answered, “Can you make the friends of the bridegroom fast while he is with them?
35	But the days will come, when the bridegroom shall be taken away from them, then shall they fast in those days.	The days will come when the bridegroom is taken away from them, and then they will fast in those days.”	But the time will come when the bridegroom will be taken from them; in those days they will fast.”
36	Then he spake a parable unto them, No man putteth a patch of new cloth on an old garment; but if otherwise, both the new makes a rent, and the patch from the new is not of a piece with the old.	He also told them a parable: “No one tears a piece from a new garment and puts it on an old garment. If he does, he will tear the new, and the piece from the new will not match the old.	He told them this parable: “No one tears a piece out of a new garment to patch an old one. Otherwise, they will have torn the new garment, and the patch from the new will not match the old.
37	And no man putteth new wine into old bottles; for if he doth, the new wine will burst the bottles, and it will itself be spilled, and the bottles be destroyed.	And no one puts new wine into old wineskins. If he does, the new wine will burst the skins and it will be spilled, and the skins will be destroyed.	And no one pours new wine into old wineskins. Otherwise, the new wine will burst the skins; the wine will run out and the wineskins will be ruined.
38	But new wine should be put into new bottles; then both are preserved.	But new wine must be put into fresh wineskins.	No, new wine must be poured into new wineskins.
39	And no man drinking old wine, immediately desires new: for he saith, The old is better.	And no one after drinking old wine desires new, for he says, ‘The old is good.’”	And no one after drinking old wine wants the new, for they say, ‘The old is better.’”
