Lukas 5:1-16

Lukas 5:1-16 TOJB2011

Now it came about that while the multitude was listening to the dvar HASHEM and pressing in upon Rebbe Melech HaMoshiach, he had been standing beside Lake Kinneret, And he saw two sirot (boats) having been beside the lake. But the daiyagim (fishermen) had left them and were cleaning the nets. And embarking into one of the sirot which was Shimonʼs, Rebbe Melech HaMoshiach asked Shim'on to put out from the land a little; and having sat down, from the sirah (boat) to the multitudes Rebbe Melech HaMoshiach was saying shiurim. And when he stopped speaking, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach said to Shim'on, Launch out into the deep (water) and let down your nets for a catch. And in reply, Shim'on said, Adoni, throughout the whole lailah we have labored and caught nothing. But on account of your dvar I will let down the nets. And having done this, they enclosed asach (a lot of) dagim, and their nets were being torn. And they signaled for their shuttafim (partners) in the other sirah to come and help them. And they came and they filled both sirot (boats) so much that they began to sink. And having seen this, Shim'on Kefa fell down before Rebbe Melech HaMoshiach, saying, Depart from me, Adoni, for an ish choteh (sinful man) am I. For astonishment seized Shim'on Kefa and all the ones with him on account of the catch of dagim which they took; And likewise also Ya'akov and Yochanan the banim of Zavdai, who were business shuttafim (partners) with Shim'on. And Rebbe Melech HaMoshiach said to Shim'on, Do not be afraid. From now on you will catch bnei Adam. And having left behind the sirot on the shore, they forsook all, and followed him. And it came about, while he was in one of the shtetlach, hinei, there was an ish metzorah full of leprosy. And having seen Rebbe Melech HaMoshiach, and having fallen on his face, he begged him saying, Adoni, if you are willing, you are able to make me tahor (clean). And having stretched out his hand, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach touched him, saying, I am willing. Be made tahor. And, ofen ort (immediately), the leprosy departed from him. And Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach gave orders to him to tell no one, but go and show yourself to the kohen and make a korban for your tohorah (purification) as Moshe Rabbeinu gave mitzvah; do this for an edut (solemn testimony) to them. But the man was spreading even more the dvar about Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach, and many multitudes were assembling to listen and to receive refuah (healing) from their machlot (illnesses). But Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach was withdrawing in hitbodedut (seclusion, aloneness with G-d) into the wilderness places and was davening.
