1And again he entered into Capernaum after some days; and it was noised that he was in the house. 2And straightway many were gathered together, insomuch that there was no room to receive them, no, not so much as about the door: and he preached the word unto them. 3And they come unto him, bringing one sick of the palsy, which was borne of four. 4And when they could not come nigh unto him for the press, they uncovered the roof where he was: and when they had broken it up, they let down the bed wherein the sick of the palsy lay. 5When Jesus saw their faith, he said unto the sick of the palsy, Son, thy sins be forgiven thee. 6But there were certain of the scribes sitting there, and reasoning in their hearts, 7Why doth this man thus speak blasphemies? who can forgive sins but God only? 8And immediately when Jesus perceived in his spirit that they so reasoned within themselves, he said unto them, Why reason ye these things in your hearts? 9Whether is it easier to say to the sick of the palsy, Thy sins be forgiven thee; or to say, Arise, and take up thy bed, and walk? 10But that ye may know that the Son of man hath power on earth to forgive sins, (he saith to the sick of the palsy,) 11I say unto thee, Arise, and take up thy bed, and go thy way into thine house. 12And immediately he arose, took up the bed, and went forth before them all; insomuch that they were all amazed, and glorified God, saying, We never saw it on this fashion. 13And he went forth again by the sea side; and all the multitude resorted unto him, and he taught them. 14And as he passed by, he saw Levi the son of Alphæus sitting at the receipt of custom, and said unto him, Follow me. And he arose and followed him. 15And it came to pass, that, as Jesus sat at meat in his house, many publicans and sinners sat also together with Jesus and his disciples: for there were many, and they followed him. 16And when the scribes and Pharisees saw him eat with publicans and sinners, they said unto his disciples, How is it that he eateth and drinketh with publicans and sinners? 17When Jesus heard it, he saith unto them, They that are whole have no need of the physician, but they that are sick: I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance. 18And the disciples of John and of the Pharisees used to fast: and they come and say unto him, Why do the disciples of John and of the Pharisees fast, but thy disciples fast not? 19And Jesus said unto them, Can the children of the bridechamber fast, while the bridegroom is with them? as long as they have the bridegroom with them, they cannot fast. 20But the days will come, when the bridegroom shall be taken away from them, and then shall they fast in those days. 21No man also seweth a piece of new cloth on an old garment: else the new piece that filled it up taketh away from the old, and the rent is made worse. 22And no man putteth new wine into old bottles: else the new wine doth burst the bottles, and the wine is spilled, and the bottles will be marred: but new wine must be put into new bottles. 23And it came to pass, that he went through the corn fields on the sabbath day; and his disciples began, as they went, to pluck the ears of corn. 24And the Pharisees said unto him, Behold, why do they on the sabbath day that which is not lawful? 25And he said unto them, Have ye never read what David did, when he had need, and was an hungred, he, and they that were with him? 26How he went into the house of God in the days of Abiathar the high priest, and did eat the shewbread, which is not lawful to eat but for the priests, and gave also to them which were with him? 27And he said unto them, The sabbath was made for man, and not man for the sabbath: 28Therefore the Son of man is Lord also of the sabbath.
Yesu Awonya Omulwadde w’Olukonvuba
1Awo bwe waayitawo ennaku nnyingi Yesu n’akomawo mu kibuga Kaperunawumu, ne kiwulirwa nti ali ka. 22:2 nny 13; Mak 1:45Abantu bangi ne bakuŋŋaana, ne wataba kafo wayinzika kuyisibwa kigere ku mulyango; n’ababuulira Enjiri. 32:3 Mat 4:24Omulwadde eyali akoozimbye ne bamuleeta eri Yesu ng’asituliddwa abasajja bana. 4Naye bwe balemwa okuyingiza omulwadde eyali akoozimbye olw’ekibiina ekinene ne baseluukulula ku kasolya ne bassa omulwadde ng’ali ku katanda ke. 52:5 Luk 7:48Yesu bwe yalaba okukkiriza kwabwe, n’agamba omulwadde eyali akoozimbye nti, “Mwana wange ebibi byo bikusonyiyiddwa.” 6Naye abamu ku bannyonnyozi b’amateeka abaali batudde awo nga balowooza ku bintu bino mu mitima gyabwe ne boogera nti, 72:7 Is 43:25“Ono ayinza atya okwogera bw’atyo? Avvodde! Ani ayinza okusonyiwa ebibi okuggyako Katonda?” 8Amangwago Yesu n’amanya mu mutima gwe bye baali boogerako bokka ne bokka n’ababuuza nti, “Lwaki mwebuuzaganya ebintu bino mu mitima gyammwe? 9Ekyangu kye kiruwa, okugamba akoozimbye nti ebibi byo bikusonyiyiddwa oba nti yimirira ositule akatanda ko otambule? 102:10 Mat 8:20Naye mmwe okusobola okutegeera ng’Omwana w’Omuntu alina obuyinza okusonyiwa ebibi ku nsi;” n’agamba eyali akoozimbye nti, 11“Yimirira ositule akatanda ko oddeyo ewuwo.” 122:12 a Mat 9:8 b Mat 9:33Awo omusajja n’asituka, amangwago n’asitula akatanda ke n’afuluma nga bonna balaba. Bonna ne bawuniikirira era ne bagulumiza Katonda, nga bagamba nti, “Kino tetukirabangako.”
Yesu Ayita Leevi

Sajja kuyita batuukirivu wabula abalina ebibi.”
Yesu Bamubuuza ku by’Okusiiba
182:18 Mat 6:16-18; Bik 13:2Abayigirizwa ba Yokaana n’ab’Abafalisaayo baali basiiba. Abantu ne bajja eri Yesu ne bamubuuza nti, “Lwaki abayigirizwa ba Yokaana n’abayigirizwa b’Abafalisaayo basiiba, naye abayigirizwa bo ne batasiiba?” 19Awo Yesu n’abaddamu nti, “Ddala ddala abali n’awasiza omugole bayinza batya okusiiba, ng’awasizza omugole ali nabo? 202:20 Luk 17:22Naye ekiseera kirituuka awasizza omugole bw’alibaggibwako; okuva olwo ne balyoka basiiba. 21Teri muntu atunga kiwero kiggya mu lugoye olukadde kubanga ekiwero ekiggya kiyuza olugoye olukadde, n’ekituli ne kyeyongera okugaziwa. 22Teri muntu ateeka mwenge musu mu nsawo z’amaliba nkadde kubanga omwenge omusu gwabya ensawo enkadde, omwenge ne guyiika, n’ensawo ne ziyulika. Naye omwenge omusu baguteeka mu nsawo mpya.”
Yesu ye Mukama wa Ssabbiiti
232:23 Ma 23:25Awo mu biro ebyo Yesu yali ayita mu nnimiro y’emmere ey’empeke ku Ssabbiiti, abayigirizwa be ne batandika okunoga ku birimba by’emmere ey’empeke. 242:24 Mat 12:2Abafalisaayo ne bagamba Yesu nti, “Lwaki abayigirizwa bo bakola ekitakkirizibwa ku Ssabbiiti.” 25Yesu n’abaddamu nti, “Temusomanga ku Dawudi kye yakola bwe yalina okwetaaga n’enjala ng’emuluma, ye ne be yali nabo, 262:26 a 1By 24:6; 2Sa 8:17 b Lv 24:5-9 c 1Sa 21:1-6bwe yayingira mu nnyumba ya Katonda mu biro bya Abiyasaali kabona omukulu, n’alya emigaati egy’okulaga n’awaako n’abo be yali nabo, egitakkirizibwa kuliibwako bantu balala okuggyako bakabona.” 272:27 a Kuv 23:12; Ma 5:14 b Bak 2:16N’abagamba nti, “Ssabbiiti yateekebwawo lwa muntu, so si omuntu ku lwa Ssabbiiti. 282:28 Mat 8:20Noolwekyo Omwana w’Omuntu ye Mukama wa Ssabbiiti.”
