Saunt Matthew 9
9
1An’ he gaed intil a ship, an’ passet owre, an’ cam’ intil his ain toun.
2An’, behald, they broucht til him a man ill o’ the palsy, lyin’ on a bed: an’ Jesus seein’ their faith, said until the ill o’ the palsy, Son, be o’ guid cheer, thy sins are forgien thee.
3An’, behald, some o’ the scribes said til themsels, This man blasphemeth.
4An’ Jesus kennin’ their thouchts, said, Wharefore think ye evil in your hairts?
5For whilk is easier, to say, Thy sins are forgien thee; or to say, Rise up, an’ gae awa?
6But that ye may ken that the Son o’ man hath power on yirth to forgie sins (syne saith he til the ill o’ the palsy,) Rise up, tak’ up thy bed, an’ gang until thine house.
7An’ he rase up, an’ gaed awa til his house.
8But whan the thrang saw it, they wonder’t an’ glorifiet God, wha had gien sic power until men.
9An’ as Jesus gaed furth frae there he saw a man, ca’d Matthew, sittin’ at the resett o’ stent; an’ he saith until him, Follow me. An’ he rase up, an’ followet him.
10An’ it cam’ to pass, as Jesus sat at meat in the house, behald, mony publicans an’ sinners cam’ an’ sat doun wi’ him an’ his disciples.
11An’ whan the Pharisees saw it, they said until his disciples, Why eateth your Maister wi’ publicans an’ sinners?
12But whan Jesus hear’t that, he said until them, They wha are hale needna a doctor, but they wha are ill.
13But gae ye an’ learn what that meaneth, I will hae mercy, an’ no sacrifice; for I amna come to ca’ the richteous, but sinners til repentance.
14Syne cam’ til him the disciples o’ John, sayin’, Why do we an’ the Pharisees fast aft, but thy disciples dinna fast?
15An’ Jesus said until them, Can the childer o’ the bride‐chammer murn as lang as the bridegroom is wi’ them? but the days will come whan the bridegroom sall be taen frae them, an’ than sall they fast.
16Nae man pitteth a patch o’ new claith intil an auld garment, for that whilk is putten in to fill it up taketh frae the garment, an’ the rive is made waur.
17Neither do men pit new wine intil auld bottles; else the bottles brust, an’ the wine rinneth out, an’ the bottles perish; but they pit new wine intil new bottles, an’ baith are preservet.
18While he spak’ thae things until them, behald, there cam’ a certain ruler, an’ worshippet him, sayin’, My dochter is e’en now dead; but come an’ lay thy han’ upon her, an’ she sall live.
19An’ Jesus rase up, an’ followet him, an’ sae did his disciples.
20An’, behald, a woman wha had been afflickit wi’ a rinnin’ o’ bluid twal years, cam’ ahint him, an’ touchet the hem o’ his garment.
21For she said until hersel, Gin I may but touch his garment, I sall be hale.
22But Jesus turnet him about, an’ whan he saw her, he said, Dochter, be o’ guid cheer; thy faith hath made thee hale. An’ the woman was made hale frae that hour.
23An’ whan Jesus cam’ intil the ruler’s house, an’ saw the minstrels an’ the folk makin’ a rowtin’,
24He said until them, Stan’ back; for the lassie isna dead, but sleepeth. An’ they lauchet him til scorn.
25But whan the folk were putten furth, he gaed in an’ teuk her by the han’, an’ the lassie rase up.
26An’ the fame o’ this gaed abraid outowre a’ that kintra.
27An’ whan Jesus gaed awa frae there, twa blin’ men followet him, cryin’ an’ sayin’, Thou Son o’ David, hae pity on us.
28An’ whan he was come intil the house, the blin’ men cam’ til him; an’ Jesus saith until them, Trow ye that I am able to do this? They said until him, Ay, Lord.
29Syne touchet he their een, sayin’, Sae as is your faith, be it until you.
30An’ their een were openet; an’ Jesus strickly charget them, sayin’, See that nae man ken it.
31But they, whan they had gane awa, spread abraid his fame in a’ that kintra.
32As they gaed out, behald, they broucht til him a dumb man possesset wi’ a deevil.
33An’ whan the deevil was coost out, the dumb spak’, an’ the thrang wonder’t, sayin’, The like o’ this was never seen in Israel.
34But the Pharisees said, He casteth out deevils through the prince o’ the deevils.
35An’ Jesus gaed about a’ the touns an’ clachans, teachin’ in their synagogues, an’ preachin’ the gospel o’ the kingdom, an’ healin’ ilka sickness an’ ailment amang the folk.
36But whan he saw the thrang, he was movet wi’ pity towards them, because they were forfoughten, an’ were skaillet abraid, as sheep haein’ nae shepherd.
37Syne he saith until his disciples, The hairst truly is routhie, but the shearers are few.
38Pray ye therefore the Lord o’ the hairst that he will sen’ furth shearers intil his hairst.
