Gospel of Nicodemus, Part I: The Acts of Pilate 6

1Now one of the Jews came forward and besought the governor that he might speak a word. The governor saith: If thou wilt say aught, speak on. And the Jew said: Thirty and eight years lay I on a bed in suffering of pains, and at the coming of Jesus many that were possessed and laid with divers diseases were healed by him, and certain (faithful) young men took pity on me and carried me with my bed and brought me unto him; and when Jesus saw me he had compassion, and spake a word unto me: Take up thy bed and walk. And I took up my bed and walked. The Jews say unto Pilate: Ask of him what day it was whereon he was healed? ⟨Pilate said unto him that was healed of his sickness: Tell me truly what day it was whereon he healed thee. Copt. only. ⟩ He that was healed saith: On the sabbath. The Jews say: Did we not inform thee so, that upon the sabbath he healeth and casteth out devils?

Εἷς δὲ τῶν Ἰουδαίων παραπηδήσας ἠξίου τὸν ἡγεμόνα λόγον εἰπεῖν. λέγει ὁ ἡγεμών· εἴ τι θέλεις εἰπεῖν, εἰπέ. ὁ δὲ Ἰουδαῖος ἔφη· ἐγὼ τριάκοντα ὀκτὼ ἔτη ἐν κλίνῃ κατεκείμην ἐν ὀδύνῃ πόνων· καὶ ἐλθόντος τοῦ Ἰησοῦ πολλοὶ δαιμονιζόμενοι καὶ ποικίλαις νόσοις κατακείμενοι ἐθεραπεύθησαν ὑπ᾽ αὐτοῦ. καί τινες νεανίσκοι κατελεήσαντές με ἐβάστασάν με μετὰ τῆς κλίνης καὶ ἀπήγαγόν με πρὸς αὐτόν. καὶ ἰδών με ὁ Ἰησοῦς ἐσπλαγχνίσθη καὶ λόγον εἶπέν μοι· ἆρόν σου τὸν κράββατον καὶ περιπάτει. καὶ ἦρα τὸν κράββατόν μου καὶ περιεπάτησα. λέγουσιν οἱ Ἰουδαῖοι τῷ Πιλάτῳ· ἐρωτήσομεν αὐτὸν ποία ἡμέρα ἦν ὅτε ἐθεραπεύθη. λέγει ὁ θεραπευθείς· ἐν σαββάτῳ. λέγουσιν οἱ Ἰουδαῖοι· μὴ οὐχ οὕτως ἐδιδάξαμεν ὅτι ἐν σαββάτῳ θεραπεύει καὶ δαίμονας ἐκβάλλει; (52094)

2And another Jew came forward and said: I was born blind: I heard words but I saw no man’s face: and as Jesus passed by I cried with a loud voice: Have mercy on me, O son of David. And he took pity on me and put his hands upon mine eyes and I received sight immediately. And another Jew came forward and said: I was bowed and he made me straight with a word. And another said: I was a leper, and he healed me with a word.

Καὶ ἄλλος Ἰουδαῖος παραπηδήσας λέγει· ἐγὼ τυφλὸς ἐγεννήθην, φωνὴν ἤκουον καὶ πρόσωπον οὐκ ἔβλεπον· καὶ παράγοντος τοῦ Ἰησοῦ ἔκραξα φωνῇ μεγάλῃ· ἐλέησόν με, υἱὲ Δαυίδ. καὶ ἠλέησέν με καὶ ἐπέθηκεν τὰς χεῖρας αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ τοὺς ὀφθαλμούς μου, καὶ ἀνέβλεψα παραχρῆμα. καὶ ἄλλος Ἰουδαῖος παραπηδήσας εἶπεν· κυρτὸς ἤμην, καὶ ὤρθωσέ με λόγῳ. καὶ ἄλλος εἶπεν· λεπρὸς ἐγενόμην, καὶ ἐθεράπευσέν με λόγῳ.
