Luke 5:1-22 ▼

1 It came to passe as the people preased vpon him to heare the worde of God that he stoode by the lake of Genezareth:

2 and sawe two shippes stonde by the lake syde but the fisshermen were gone out of the and were wasshynge their nettes.

3 And he entred in to one of the shippes which perteyned to Simon and prayed him that he wolde thrust out a litell from the londe. And he sate doune and taught the people out of the ship.

4 When he had leeft speakynge he sayde vnto Simon: Launche out in to the depe and let slippe youre nettes to make a draught

5 And Simon answered and sayde to him: Master we ha ve labored all nyght and have taken nothinge. Neverthelater at thy worde I will loose forthe the net.

6 And when they had so done they inclosed a greate multitude of fisshes. And their net brake:

7 but they made signes to their felowes which were in the other ship that they shuld come and helpe the And they came: and filled bothe the shippes that they soncke agayne.

8 When Simon Peter sawe that he fell doune at Iesus knees sayinge: Lorde goo

9 fro me for I am a synfull man. For he was vtterly astonyed a nd all that were wt him at ye draught of fisshe which they toke:

10 and so was also Iames and Iohn ye sonnes of zebede which were parteners wt Simon. And Iesus sayde vnto Simon: feare not fro hence forthe thou shalt catche men.

11 And they brought the shippes to londe and forsoke all and folowed him.

12 And it fortuned as he was in a certayne cite: beholde ther was a man full of leprosy: and when he had spied Iesus he fell on his face and besought him sayinge: Lorde yf thou wilt thou canst make me cleane .

13 And he strethed forth ye hond and touched him sayinge: I will be thou cleane. And immediatly the leprosy departed from him.

14 And he warned him that he shuld tell no man: but that he shuld goo and shewe him selfe to the Preste and offer for his clensynge accordinge as Moses commaundement was for a witnes vnto them.

15 But so moche the moare went ther a fame abroade of him and moche people cam to geder to heare and to be healed of him of their infirmities.

16 And he kepte him silfe aparte in ye wildernesses and gave him silfe to prayer.

17 And it happened on a certayne daye that he taught: and ther sate the pharises: and docturs of lawe which were come out of all ye tounes of Galile Iurie and Hierusalem. And the power of the Lorde was to heale the.

18 And beholde me brought a man lyinge in his beed which was taken with a palsie: and sought meanes to brynge him in and to laye him before him.

19 And whe they coulde not finde by what waye they might bringe him in be cause of ye prease they wet vp on the toppe of ye housse and let him doune thorowe the tylinge beed and all in the middes before Iesus.

20 When he sawe their fayth he sayde vnto him: man thy synnes are forgeven the.

21 And the Scribes and the Parises begane to thinke sayinge: What felow is this which speaketh blasphemy? Who can forgeve synnes but God only?

22 When Iesus perceaved their thoughtes he answered and sayde vnto them: What thinke ye in youre hertes?
