12. And when he came nigh to the gate of the city, behold a dead man was carried out, the only son of his mother; and she was a widow: and a great multitude of the city was with her.
13. Whom when the Lord had seen, being moved with mercy towards her, he said to her: Weep not.
14. And he came near and touched the bier. And they that carried it, stood still. And he said: Young man, I say to thee, arise.
15. And he that was dead, sat up, and began to speak. And he gave him to his mother.
16. And there came a fear on them all: and they glorified God, saying: A great prophet is risen up among us: and, God hath visited his people.
17. And this rumour of him went forth throughout all Judea, and throughout all the country round about.
18. And John's disciples told him of all these things.
19. And John called to him two of his disciples, and sent them to Jesus, saying: Art thou he that art to come; or look we for another?
20. And when the men were come unto him, they said: John the Baptist hath sent us to thee, saying: Art thou he that art to come; or look we for another?
21. (And in that same hour, he cured many of their diseases, and hurts, and evil spirits: and to many that were blind he gave sight.)
22. And answering, he said to them: Go and relate to John what you have heard and seen: the blind see, the lame walk, the lepers are made clean, the deaf hear, the dead rise again, to the poor the gospel is preached:
23. And blessed is he whosoever shall not be scandalized in me.
24. And when the messengers of John were departed, he began to speak to the multitudes concerning John. What went ye out into the desert to see? a reed shaken with the wind?
25. But what went you out to see? a man clothed in soft garments? Behold they that are in costly apparel and live delicately, are in the houses of kings.
