Luke 5

The First Disciples

5Now it came about that while the multitude were pressing around Him and listening to the word of God, He was standing by the lake of Gennesaret;G1161G1096G1722G3793G1945G846G191G3056G2316G2532G846G2258G2476G3844G3041G10822and He saw two boats lying at the edge of the lake; but the fishermen had gotten out of them, and were washing their nets.G2532G1492G1417G4143G2476G3844G3041G1161G231G576G575G846G637G13503And He got into one of the boats, which was Simon's, and asked him to put out a little way from the land. And He sat down and [began] teaching the multitudes from the boat.G1161G1684G1519G1520G4143G3739G2258G4613G2065G846G1877G3641G575G1093G2532G2523G1321G3793G1537G41434And when He had finished speaking, He said to Simon, "Put out into the deep water and let down your nets for a catch."G1161G5613G3973G2980G2036G4314G4613G1877G1519G899G2532G5465G5216G1350G1519G615And Simon answered and said, "Master, we worked hard all night and caught nothing, but at Your bidding I will let down the nets."G2532G4613G611G2036G846G1988G2872G3650G1223G3571G2983G3762G1161G1909G4675G4487G5465G13506And when they had done this, they enclosed a great quantity of fish; and their nets [began] to break;G2532G4160G5124G4160G4788G4183G4128G2486G1161G846G1350G12847and they signaled to their partners in the other boat, for them to come and help them. And they came, and filled both of the boats, so that they began to sink.G2532G2656G3353G3588G1722G2087G4143G2064G4815G846G2532G2064G2532G4130G297G4143G5620G846G10368But when Simon Peter saw [that,] he fell down at Jesus' feet, saying, "Depart from me, for I am a sinful man, O Lord!"G1161G4613G4074G1492G4363G2424G1119G3004G1831G575G1700G3754G1510G268G435G29629For amazement had seized him and all his companions because of the catch of fish which they had taken;G1063G846G4023G2285G2532G3956G4862G846G1909G61G2486G3739G481510and so also James and John, sons of Zebedee, who were partners with Simon. And Jesus said to Simon, "Do not fear, from now on you will be catching men."G1161G3668G2532G2385G2532G2491G5207G2199G3739G2258G2844G4613G2532G2424G2036G4314G4613G5399G3361G575G3568G2071G2221G44411And when they had brought their boats to land, they left everything and followed Him.G2532G2609G4143G1909G1093G863G537G190G846

The Leper and the Paralytic

12And it came about that while He was in one of the cities, behold, [ there was] a man full of leprosy; and when he saw Jesus, he fell on his face and implored Him, saying, "Lord, if You are willing, You can make me clean."G2532G1096G846G1511G1722G1722G3391G4172G2532G2400G435G4134G3014G2532G1492G2424G4098G1909G4383G1189G846G3004G2962G1437G2309G1410G2511G3165G251113And He stretched out His hand, and touched him, saying, "I am willing; be cleansed." And immediately the leprosy left him.G2532G1614G5495G680G846G2036G2309G2511G2532G2112G3014G565G575G84614And He ordered him to tell no one, "But go and show yourself to the priest, and make an offering for your cleansing, just as Moses commanded, for a testimony to them."G2532G846G3853G846G2036G3367G235G565G1166G4572G2409G2532G4374G4012G4675G2512G2531G3475G4367G1519G3142G84615But the news about Him was spreading even farther, and great multitudes were gathering to hear [Him] and to be healed of their sicknesses.G1161G3123G1330G3056G1330G4012G846G2532G4183G3793G4905G191G2532G2323G5259G846G575G846G76916But He Himself would [often] slip away to the wilderness and pray.G1161G2258G5298G846G1722G2048G2532G433617And it came about one day that He was teaching; and there were [some] Pharisees and teachers of the law sitting [there,] who had come from every village of Galilee and Judea and [from] Jerusalem; and the power of the Lord was [present] for Him to perform healing.G2532G1096G1722G3391G2250G2532G846G2258G1321G2532G2258G5330G2532G3547G2521G3739G2258G2064G1537G3956G2968G1056G2532G2449G2532G2419G2532G1411G2962G2258G1519G2390G84618And behold, [some] men [were] carrying on a bed a man who was paralyzed; and they were trying to bring him in, and to set him down in front of Him.G2532G2400G435G5342G1909G2825G444G3739G2258G3886G2532G2212G1533G846G1533G2532G5087G1799G84619And not finding any [way] to bring him in because of the crowd, they went up on the roof and let him down through the tiles with his stretcher, right in the center, in front of Jesus.G2532G2147G3361G2147G1223G4169G1533G846G1533G1223G3793G305G1909G1430G2524G846G2524G1223G2766G4862G2826G1519G3319G1715G242420And seeing their faith, He said, "Friend, your sins are forgiven you."G2532G1492G846G4102G2036G846G444G4675G266G863G467121And the scribes and the Pharisees began to reason, saying, "Who is this [man] who speaks blasphemies? Who can forgive sins, but God alone?"G2532G1122G2532G5330G756G1260G3004G5101G2076G3778G3739G2980G988G5101G1410G863G266G1508G2316G344122But Jesus, aware of their reasonings, answered and said to them, "Why are you reasoning in your hearts?G1161G2424G1921G846G1261G611G2036G4314G846G5101G1260G1722G5216G258823"Which is easier, to say, 'Your sins have been forgiven you,' or to say, 'Rise and walk'?G5101G2076G2123G2036G4675G266G863G4671G2228G2036G1453G2532G404324"But in order that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins,"— He said to the paralytic— "I say to you, rise, and take up your stretcher and go home."G1161G2443G1492G3754G5207G444G2192G1849G1909G1093G863G266G2036G3886G3004G4671G1453G2532G142G4675G2826G4198G1519G4675G362425And at once he rose up before them, and took up what he had been lying on, and went home, glorifying God.G2532G3916G450G1799G846G142G1909G3739G2621G565G1519G846G3624G1392G231626And they were all seized with astonishment and [began] glorifying God; and they were filled with fear, saying, "We have seen remarkable things today."G2532G2983G537G1611G2532G1392G2316G2532G4130G5401G3004G3754G1492G3861G4594

Call of Levi (Matthew)

27And after that He went out, and noticed a tax-gatherer named Levi, sitting in the tax office, and He said to him, "Follow Me."G2532G3326G5023G1831G2532G2300G5057G3686G3018G2521G1909G5058G2532G2036G846G190G342728And he left everything behind, and rose and [began] to follow Him.G2532G2641G537G450G190G84629And Levi gave a big reception for Him in his house; and there was a great crowd of tax-gatherers and other [people] who were reclining [at the table] with them.G2532G3018G4160G846G3173G1403G1722G846G3614G2532G2258G4183G3793G5057G2532G243G3739G2258G2621G3326G84630And the Pharisees and their scribes [began] grumbling at His disciples, saying, "Why do you eat and drink with the tax-gatherers and sinners?"G2532G846G1122G2532G5330G1111G4314G846G3101G3004G1302G2068G2532G4095G3326G5057G2532G26831And Jesus answered and said to them, "[It is] not those who are well who need a physician, but those who are sick.G2532G2424G611G2036G4314G846G5198G5532G2192G3756G2395G235G2192G256032"I have not come to call the righteous but sinners to repentance."G2064G3756G2564G1342G235G268G1519G334133And they said to Him, "The disciples of John often fast and offer prayers; the [disciples] of the Pharisees also do the same; but Yours eat and drink."G1161G2036G4314G846G1302G3522G3101G2491G3522G4437G2532G4160G1162G2532G3668G3588G5330G1161G4674G2068G2532G409534And Jesus said to them, "You cannot make the attendants of the bridegroom fast while the bridegroom is with them, can you?G1161G2036G4314G846G3361G1410G4160G5207G3567G3522G3739G1722G3566G2076G3326G84635"But [the] days will come; and when the bridegroom is taken away from them, then they will fast in those days."G1161G2250G2064G3752G2532G3566G522G575G846G5119G3522G1722G1565G225036And He was also telling them a parable: "No one tears a piece from a new garment and puts it on an old garment; otherwise he will both tear the new, and the piece from the new will not match the old.G1161G3004G2532G3850G4314G846G3754G3762G1911G1915G2537G2440G1909G2440G3820G1490G2532G2537G4977G2532G1915G575G2537G4856G3756G382037"And no one puts new wine into old wineskins; otherwise the new wine will burst the skins, and it will be spilled out, and the skins will be ruined.G2532G3762G906G3501G3631G1519G3820G779G1490G3501G3631G4486G779G2532G846G1632G2532G779G62238"But new wine must be put into fresh wineskins.G235G3501G3631G992G1519G2537G779G2532G297G493339"And no one, after drinking old [wine] wishes for new; for he says, ' The old is good [enough.] '"G3762G2532G4095G3820G2112G2309G3501G1063G3004G3820G2076G5543

Prayer Tents is a Christian mission organization that serves Christians around the world and their local bodies to make disciples ("evangelize") more effectively in their communities. Prayer Tents provides resources to enable Christians to form discipleship-focused small groups and make their gatherings known so that other "interested" people may participate and experience Christ in their midst. Our Vision is to make disciples in all nations through the local churches so that anyone seeking God can come to know Him through relationships with other Christians near them.
