Luke 7:12-22 World English Bible (WEB)

12. Now when he came near to the gate of the city, behold, one who was dead was carried out, the only son of his mother, and she was a widow. Many people of the city were with her.

13. When the Lord saw her, he had compassion on her, and said to her, “Don’t cry.”

14. He came near and touched the coffin, and the bearers stood still. He said, “Young man, I tell you, arise!”

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

16. Fear took hold of all, and they glorified God, saying, “A great prophet has arisen among us!” and, “God has visited his people!”

17. This report went out concerning him in the whole of Judea, and in all the surrounding region.

18. The disciples of John told him about all these things.

19. John, calling to himself two of his disciples, sent them to Jesus, saying, “Are you the one who is coming, or should we look for another?”

20. When the men had come to him, they said, “John the Baptizer has sent us to you, saying, ‘Are you he who comes, or should we look for another?’”

21. In that hour he cured many of diseases and plagues and evil spirits; and to many who were blind he gave sight.

22. Jesus answered them, “Go and tell John the things which you have seen and heard: that the blind receive their sight, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised up, and the poor have good news preached to them.
