Luqas (Luke) 5:1-16

Luqas (Luke) 5:1-16 TS2009

And it came to be, while the crowd was pressing upon Him to hear the word of Elohim, that He stood by the Lake of Gennĕsar, and He saw two boats standing by the lake, but the fishermen had gone from them and were washing their nets. And entering into one of the boats, which belonged to Shim‛on, He asked him to pull away a little from the land. And He sat down and was teaching the crowds from the boat. And when He ceased speaking, He said to Shim‛on, “Pull out into the deep and let down your nets for a catch.” And Shim‛on answering, said to Him, “Master, we have toiled all night and caught none, but at Your word I shall let down the net.” And when they did so, they caught a great number of fish, and their net was breaking, and they motioned to their partners in the other boat to come and help them. And they came and filled both the boats, so that they were sinking. And when Shim‛on Kĕpha saw it, he fell down at the knees of יהושע, saying, “Depart from me, for I am a man, a sinner, O Master!” For astonishment had seized him and all those with him, at the catch of fish which they took, so too were Ya‛aqoḇ and Yoḥanan, the sons of Zaḇdai, who were partners with Shim‛on. Then יהושע said to Shim‛on, “Do not fear, from now on you shall catch men.” And having brought the boats to land, they left all and followed Him. And it came to be when He was in a certain city, that see, a man covered with leprosy saw יהושע. And he fell on his face and begged Him, saying, “Master, if You desire, You are able to cleanse me.” And He stretched out His hand and touched him, saying, “I desire it. Be cleansed.” And immediately the leprosy left him. And He ordered him to say it to no one, “But go and show yourself to the priest, and make an offering for your cleansing, as a witness to them, as Mosheh commanded.” And the news about Him was spreading even more. And large crowds were coming together to hear, and to be healed by Him of their sicknesses. But He was often withdrawing Himself to lonely places and praying.
