Jesus Calls the First Disciples
(Matthew 4.18-22Mark 1.16-20)1 One day Jesus was standing on the shore of Lake Gennesaret while the people pushed their way up to him to listen to the word of God. 2 He saw two boats pulled up on the beach; the fishermen had left them and were washing the nets. 3 Jesus got into one of the boats—it belonged to Simon—and asked him to push off a little from the shore. Jesus sat in the boat and taught the crowd.
4 When he finished speaking, he said to Simon, “Push the boat out further to the deep water, and you and your partners let down your nets for a catch.”
5 “Master,” Simon answered, “we worked hard all night long and caught nothing. But if you say so, I will let down the nets.” 6 They let them down and caught such a large number of fish that the nets were about to break. 7 So they motioned to their partners in the other boat to come and help them. They came and filled both boats so full of fish that the boats were about to sink. 8 When Simon Peter saw what had happened, he fell on his knees before Jesus and said, “Go away from me, Lord! I am a sinful man!”
9 He and the others with him were all amazed at the large number of fish they had caught. 10 The same was true of Simon's partners, James and John, the sons of Zebedee. Jesus said to Simon, “Don't be afraid; from now on you will be catching people.”
11 They pulled the boats up on the beach, left everything, and followed Jesus.
Jesus Heals a Man
(Matthew 8.1-4Mark 1.40-45)12 Once Jesus was in a town where there was a man who was suffering from a dreaded skin disease. When he saw Jesus, he threw himself down and begged him, “Sir, if you want to, you can make me clean!”
13 Jesus reached out and touched him. “I do want to,” he answered. “Be clean!” At once the disease left the man. 14 Jesus ordered him, “Don't tell anyone, but go straight to the priest and let him examine you; then to prove to everyone that you are cured, offer the sacrifice as Moses ordered.”
15 But the news about Jesus spread all the more widely, and crowds of people came to hear him and be healed from their diseases. 16 But he would go away to lonely places, where he prayed.
Jesus Heals a Paralyzed Man
(Matthew 9.1-8Mark 2.1-12)17 One day when Jesus was teaching, some Pharisees and teachers of the Law were sitting there who had come from every town in Galilee and Judea and from Jerusalem. The power of the Lord was present for Jesus to heal the sick. 18 Some men came carrying a paralyzed man on a bed, and they tried to carry him into the house and put him in front of Jesus. 19 Because of the crowd, however, they could find no way to take him in. So they carried him up on the roof, made an opening in the tiles, and let him down on his bed into the middle of the group in front of Jesus. 20 When Jesus saw how much faith they had, he said to the man, “Your sins are forgiven, my friend.”
21 The teachers of the Law and the Pharisees began to say to themselves, “Who is this man who speaks such blasphemy! God is the only one who can forgive sins!”
22 Jesus knew their thoughts and said to them, “Why do you think such things? 23 Is it easier to say, ‘Your sins are forgiven you,’ or to say, ‘Get up and walk’? 24 I will prove to you, then, that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins.” So he said to the paralyzed man, “I tell you, get up, pick up your bed, and go home!”
25 At once the man got up in front of them all, took the bed he had been lying on, and went home, praising God. 26 They were all completely amazed! Full of fear, they praised God, saying, “What marvelous things we have seen today!”
Jesus Calls Levi
(Matthew 9.9-13Mark 2.13-17)27 After this, Jesus went out and saw a tax collector named Levi, sitting in his office. Jesus said to him, “Follow me.” 28 Levi got up, left everything, and followed him.
29 Then Levi had a big feast in his house for Jesus, and among the guests was a large number of tax collectors and other people. 30 Some Pharisees and some teachers of the Law who belonged to their group complained to Jesus' disciples. “Why do you eat and drink with tax collectors and other outcasts?” they asked.
31 Jesus answered them, “People who are well do not need a doctor, but only those who are sick. 32 I have not come to call respectable people to repent, but outcasts.”
The Question about Fasting
(Matthew 9.14-17Mark 2.18-22)33 Some people said to Jesus, “The disciples of John fast frequently and offer prayers, and the disciples of the Pharisees do the same; but your disciples eat and drink.”
34 Jesus answered, “Do you think you can make the guests at a wedding party go without food as long as the bridegroom is with them? Of course not! 35 But the day will come when the bridegroom will be taken away from them, and then they will fast.”
36 Jesus also told them this parable: “You don't tear a piece off a new coat to patch up an old coat. If you do, you will have torn the new coat, and the piece of new cloth will not match the old. 37 Nor do you pour new wine into used wineskins, because the new wine will burst the skins, the wine will pour out, and the skins will be ruined. 38 Instead, new wine must be poured into fresh wineskins! 39 And you don't want new wine after drinking old wine. ‘The old is better,’ you say.”

Bogōtō zveja.
1 Reizi, kad ļaudis spīdēs klōt, lai dzērdātu Dīva vōrdu, Jys stōvēja pi Genezaret azara. 2 Īraudzejis pi krosta stōvūšas divi laivas, jo zvejnīki beja izkōpuši ōrā un teireja teiklus, 3 Jys īkōpe vīnā laivā, kura pīdarēja Seimaņam, un palyudze, lai atsastumtu drusku nu krosta nūst. Tad atsasēdis tamā laivā, mōceja ļaudis.
4 Pabeidzis runu, Jys saceja Seimaņam: Dūdīs uz dziļumim un īmetit jyusu teiklus zvejai. 5 Bet Seimaņs atsasauce un saceja: Mōceitōj, mes vysu nakti strōdōjom, bet nikō nanūgivom, bet Tova vōrda dēļ īmesšu teiklus. 6 Tū izdarejuši, jī sakēre tik daudz zyvu, ka sōce pleist teikli. 7 Tōpēc pamōve draugim, kuri beja ūtrajā laivā, lai tī ītu jim paleigā. Tī pībrauce klōtu. Obi laivas piļdeja ar zivim tik tōli, ka tikkū naapgryma.
8 Tū radzādams, Seimaņs Pīters pakryta pi Jezus kōjom un saceja: Kungs, ej nūst nu manis, jo es asmu grēceigs cylvāks! 9 Zyvu pīzvejōšonas dēļ jys un visi citi, kas ar jū beja, ļūti breinōjōs, 10 ari Zebedeja dāli Jākubs un Jōņs, kuri beja Seimaņa leidzstrōdnīki. Jezus Seimaņam teice: Nasabeist! Nu šō laika byusi ļaužu zvejōtōjs.
11 Tī, izvylkuši molā laivas, pamete vysu un aizgōja Jam pakaļ.
K. Jezus padora vasalus špitaleigū un krampa sarautū.
12 Un kad Jys beja vīnā nu mīstim, vīns cylvāks, kas vysā beja ar špitaleibu apklōts, īraudzejis Jezu, pakryta uz vaiga un lyudze: Kungs, jo gribi, vari mani padareit teiru!
13 Jys izstīpe rūku un aizkēre jū saceidams: Es grybu, esi teirs! Un špitaleiba tyuleņ nu jō atsastōja. 14 Jys tū breidynōja, ka nikam nasaceitu, bet, ka ītu un pasarōdeitu goreidznīkam un par sovu atteireišonu salyktu upuri, kai Moizešs beja pavēlējis, jim kai līceibu.
15 Bet ziņa par Jū platejōs tōļōk un tōļōk. Daudzi ļaužu saplyuda Jō klauseitūs un izveseleitūs nu sovom slimeibom. 16 Bet Jys slēpēs vīntuleigōs vītōs un lyudzēs.
17 Vīnu dīn, kad Jys mōceja, ari farizeji un Rokstim mōceitī sēdēja, kas beja sagōjuši nu vysom Judeas un Galilejas sadžom, pat nu Jeruzalemas, jo Jam beja Kunga vara dareit tūs vasalus.
18 Raug, ļaudis nese uz gultas krampa sarautū cylvāku. Jī pyulējōs pīnest klōtu un nūlikt tū Jezus prīškā. 19 Bet ļaužu daudzuma dēļ navarādami pīīt klōtu ni nu kuras puses, jī uzkōpe uz jumta un pa caurumu nūlaide jū zemē, taišni Jezum prīškā. 20 Jys, radzādams tūs ticeibu, saceja: Cylvāks, tovi grāki tev teik atlaisti.
21 Bet Rokstim mōceiti un farizeji sevī saceja: Kas Jys taids ir, ka zaimoj Dīvu? Tadei grākus var atlaist vīneigi tik Dīvs.
22 Bet Jezus, caurskateidams jūs dūmas, jim saceja: Kū jyus dūmojit sovōs sirdīs? 23 Kas ir vīgļōk sokoms: Tovi grāki ir atlaisti, vai ari: Celīs augšā un staigoj? 24 Bet lai jyus zynōtu, ka Cylvāka Dālam ir grāku atlaisšonas vara vērs zemes, — Jys saceja slymajam, — Es tev pīsoku: Celīs augšā, jem sovu gultu un ej uz sovu sātu. 25 Un jys pīsacēle jūs acīs, un, pajēmis gultu, uz kurōs gulēja, slaveidams Dīvu, aizgōja uz sovu sātu. 26 Visi breinōjōs un slavēja Dīvu un izbailēs saceja: Šudiņ mes redzējom breineigas lītas.
Levi paaicynōšona.
27 Pēc tam, izgōjis ōrā, Jys īraudzeja muitinīku, Levi vōrdā, kas sēdēja pi muitas golda. Jys tam saceja: Ej Maņ pakaļ! 28 Tys pīsacēlis, pamete vysu, un gōja Jam pakaļ.
29 Levi sovā sātā sagatavōja Jam lelu gūda maļteiti. Gūda maļteitē reizē ar Jū jēme daleibu daudzeji muitinīki un citi. 30 Farizeji un Rokstim mōceitī dareja pōrmatumus Jō mōceklim saceidami: Kōpēc ādat un dzerat kūpā ar muitinīkim un grēcinīkim? 31 Tad Jezus atsasauce un saceja: Vasalim ōrsts navā vajadzeigs, bet gon slimim. 32 Es naatgōju taisneigūs uz atsagrīzšonu sauktu, bet gon grēcinīkus.
Gavēņa jautōjums.
33 Bet jī atbiļdēja: Jōņa mōcekli un farizeju mōcekli bīži ītur gavēni un lyudzās, bet Tovi ād un dzer. 34 Jys tim atbiļdēja: Vai tad var kōzu vīsim likt īturēt gavēni, koleidz leigovaiņs ar jim ir kūpā? 35 Gon atīs laiks, kad leigovaini nu jim pajims, un tūlaik tamōs dīnōs ji gavēs.
36 Tad jim pastōsteja pīleidzeibu: Nikas naraun gobola nūst nu jauna mēteļa un našyun jō klōt vacam, jo cytaiž, saplāstu jaunū, bet jaunō īlōps vacam nadarātu. 37 Taipat nikas nalej jauna veina vacūs traukūs, jo cytaiž, jaunais veins saplēss traukus, pats izalīs, un trauki byus pagolam. 38 Jauns veins tadei jōlej jaunūs traukūs (tad vīns un ūtrs paliks dzeivi). 39 (Taipat) nivīns, kas dzer vacū veinu, tyuleņ nagrib jauna, tadei soka: Vacais ir lobōks.
