Luke 7:12-23 Revised Version 1885 (RV1885)

12. Now when he drew near to the gate of the city, behold, there was carried out one that was dead, the only son of his mother, and she was a widow: and much people of the city was with her.

13. And when the Lord saw her, he had compassion on her, and said unto her, Weep not.

14. And he came nigh and touched the bier: and the bearers stood still. And he said, Young man, I say unto thee, Arise.

15. And he that was dead sat up, and began to speak. And he gave him to his mother.

16. And fear took hold on all: and they glorified God, saying, A great prophet is arisen among us: and, God hath visited his people.

17. And this report went forth concerning him in the whole of Judaea, and all the region round about.

18. And the disciples of John told him of all these things.

19. And John calling unto him two of his disciples sent them to the Lord, saying, Art thou he that cometh, or look we for another?

20. And when the men were come unto him, they said, John the Baptist hath sent us unto thee, saying, Art thou he that cometh, or look we for another?

21. In that hour he cured many of diseases and plagues and evil spirits; and on many that were blind he bestowed sight.

22. And he answered and said unto them, Go your way, and tell John what things ye have seen and heard; the blind receive their sight, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, and the deaf hear, the dead are raised up, the poor have good tidings preached to them.

23. And blessed is he, whosoever shall find none occasion of stumbling in me.
