< Luke 8 >

1 Soon afterwards, he went about through cities and villages, preaching and bringing the good news of God’s Kingdom. With him were the twelve,
Et factum est deinceps, et ipse iter faciebat per civitates, et castella prædicans, et evangelizans regnum Dei: et duodecim cum illo,
2 and certain women who had been healed of evil spirits and infirmities: Mary who was called Magdalene, from whom seven demons had gone out;
et mulieres aliquæ, quæ erant curatæ a spiritibus malignis et infirmatibus: Maria, quæ vocatur Magdalene, de qua septem dæmonia exierant,
3 and Joanna, the wife of Chuzas, Herod’s steward; Susanna; and many others who served them from their possessions.
et Joanna uxor Chusæ procuratoris Herodis, et Susanna, et aliæ multæ, quæ ministrabant ei de facultatibus suis.
4 When a great multitude came together and people from every city were coming to him, he spoke by a parable:
Cum autem turba plurima convenirent, et de civitatibus properarent ad eum, dixit per similitudinem:
5 “The farmer went out to sow his seed. As he sowed, some fell along the road, and it was trampled under foot, and the birds of the sky devoured it.
Exiit qui seminat, seminare semen suum. Et dum seminat, aliud cecidit secus viam, et conculcatum est, et volucres cæli comederunt illud.
6 Other seed fell on the rock, and as soon as it grew, it withered away, because it had no moisture.
Et aliud cecidit supra petram: et natum aruit, quia non habebat humorem.
7 Other fell amid the thorns, and the thorns grew with it and choked it.
Et aliud cecidit inter spinas, et simul exortæ spinæ suffocaverunt illud.
8 Other fell into the good ground and grew and produced one hundred times as much fruit.” As he said these things, he called out, “He who has ears to hear, let him hear!”
Et aliud cecidit in terram bonam: et ortum fecit fructum centuplum. Hæc dicens clamabat: Qui habet aures audiendi, audiat.
9 Then his disciples asked him, “What does this parable mean?”
Interrogabant autem eum discipuli ejus, quæ esset hæc parabola.
10 He said, “To you it is given to know the mysteries of God’s Kingdom, but to the rest it is given in parables, that ‘seeing they may not see, and hearing they may not understand.’
Quibus ipse dixit: Vobis datum est nosse mysterium regni Dei, ceteris autem in parabolis: ut videntes non videant, et audientes non intelligant.
11 “Now the parable is this: The seed is the word of God.
Est autem hæc parabola: Semen est verbum Dei.
12 Those along the road are those who hear; then the devil comes and takes away the word from their heart, that they may not believe and be saved.
Qui autem secus viam, hi sunt qui audiunt: deinde venit diabolus, et tollit verbum de corde eorum, ne credentes salvi fiant.
13 Those on the rock are they who, when they hear, receive the word with joy; but these have no root. They believe for a while, then fall away in time of temptation.
Nam qui supra petram, qui cum audierint, cum gaudio suscipiunt verbum: et hi radices non habent: qui ad tempus credunt, et in tempore tentationis recedunt.
14 What fell among the thorns, these are those who have heard, and as they go on their way they are choked with cares, riches, and pleasures of life; and they bring no fruit to maturity.
Quod autem in spinas cecidit: hi sunt qui audierunt, et a sollicitudinibus, et divitiis, et voluptatibus vitæ euntes, suffocantur, et non referunt fructum.
15 Those in the good ground, these are those who with an honest and good heart, having heard the word, hold it tightly, and produce fruit with perseverance.
Quod autem in bonam terram: hi sunt qui in corde bono et optimo audientes verbum retinent, et fructum afferunt in patientia.
16 “No one, when he has lit a lamp, covers it with a container or puts it under a bed; but puts it on a stand, that those who enter in may see the light.
Nemo autem lucernam accendens, operit eam vase, aut subtus lectum ponit: sed supra candelabrum ponit, ut intrantes videant lumen.
17 For nothing is hidden that will not be revealed, nor anything secret that will not be known and come to light.
Non est enim occultum, quod non manifestetur: nec absconditum, quod non cognoscatur, et in palam veniat.
18 Be careful therefore how you hear. For whoever has, to him will be given; and whoever doesn’t have, from him will be taken away even that which he thinks he has.”
Videte ergo quomodo audiatis? Qui enim habet, dabitur illi: et quicumque non habet, etiam quod putat se habere, auferetur ab illo.
19 His mother and brothers came to him, and they could not come near him for the crowd.
Venerunt autem ad illum mater et fratres ejus, et non poterant adire eum præ turba.
20 Some people told him, “Your mother and your brothers stand outside, desiring to see you.”
Et nuntiatum est illi: Mater tua et fratres tui stant foris, volentes te videre.
21 But he answered them, “My mother and my brothers are these who hear the word of God and do it.”
Qui respondens, dixit ad eos: Mater mea et fratres mei hi sunt, qui verbum Dei audiunt et faciunt.
22 Now on one of those days, he entered into a boat, himself and his disciples, and he said to them, “Let’s go over to the other side of the lake.” So they launched out.
Factum est autem in una dierum: et ipse ascendit in naviculam, et discipuli ejus, et ait ad illos: Transfretemus trans stagnum. Et ascenderunt.
23 But as they sailed, he fell asleep. A wind storm came down on the lake, and they were taking on dangerous amounts of water.
Et navigantibus illis, obdormivit, et descendit procella venti in stagnum, et complebantur, et periclitabantur.
24 They came to him and awoke him, saying, “Master, Master, we are dying!” He awoke and rebuked the wind and the raging of the water; then they ceased, and it was calm.
Accedentes autem suscitaverunt eum, dicentes: Præceptor, perimus. At ille surgens, increpavit ventum, et tempestatem aquæ, et cessavit: et facta est tranquillitas.
25 He said to them, “Where is your faith?” Being afraid, they marveled, saying to one another, “Who is this then, that he commands even the winds and the water, and they obey him?”
Dixit autem illis: Ubi est fides vestra? Qui timentes, mirati sunt ad invicem, dicentes: Quis putas hic est, quia et ventis, et mari imperat, et obediunt ei?
26 Then they arrived at the country of the Gadarenes, which is opposite Galilee.
Et navigaverunt ad regionem Gerasenorum, quæ est contra Galilæam.
27 When Jesus stepped ashore, a certain man out of the city who had demons for a long time met him. He wore no clothes, and didn’t live in a house, but in the tombs.
Et cum egressus esset ad terram, occurrit illi vir quidam, qui habebat dæmonium jam temporibus multis, et vestimento non induebatur, neque in domo manebat, sed in monumentis.
28 When he saw Jesus, he cried out and fell down before him, and with a loud voice said, “What do I have to do with you, Jesus, you Son of the Most High God? I beg you, don’t torment me!”
Is, ut vidit Jesum, procidit ante illum: et exclamans voce magna, dixit: Quid mihi et tibi est, Jesu Fili Dei Altissimi? obsecro te, ne me torqueas.
29 For Jesus was commanding the unclean spirit to come out of the man. For the unclean spirit had often seized the man. He was kept under guard and bound with chains and fetters. Breaking the bonds apart, he was driven by the demon into the desert.
Præcipiebat enim spiritui immundo ut exiret ab homine. Multis enim temporibus arripiebat illum, et vinciebatur catenis, et compedibus custoditus. Et ruptis vinculis agebatur a dæmonio in deserta.
30 Jesus asked him, “What is your name?” He said, “Legion,” for many demons had entered into him.
Interrogavit autem illum Jesus, dicens: Quod tibi nomen est? At ille dixit: Legio: quia intraverant dæmonia multa in eum.
31 They begged him that he would not command them to go into the abyss. (Abyssos g12)
Et rogabant illum ne imperaret illis ut in abyssum irent. (Abyssos g12)
32 Now there was there a herd of many pigs feeding on the mountain, and they begged him that he would allow them to enter into those. Then he allowed them.
Erat autem ibi grex porcorum multorum pascentium in monte: et rogabant eum, ut permitteret eis in illos ingredi. Et permisit illis.
33 The demons came out of the man and entered into the pigs, and the herd rushed down the steep bank into the lake and were drowned.
Exierunt ergo dæmonia ab homine, et intraverunt in porcos: et impetu abiit grex per præceps in stagnum, et suffocatus est.
34 When those who fed them saw what had happened, they fled and told it in the city and in the country.
Quod ut viderunt factum qui pascebant, fugerunt, et nuntiaverunt in civitatem et in villas.
35 People went out to see what had happened. They came to Jesus and found the man from whom the demons had gone out, sitting at Jesus’ feet, clothed and in his right mind; and they were afraid.
Exierunt autem videre quod factum est, et venerunt ad Jesum, et invenerunt hominem sedentem, a quo dæmonia exierant, vestitum ac sana mente, ad pedes ejus, et timuerunt.
36 Those who saw it told them how he who had been possessed by demons was healed.
Nuntiaverunt autem illis et qui viderant, quomodo sanus factus esset a legione:
37 All the people of the surrounding country of the Gadarenes asked him to depart from them, for they were very much afraid. Then he entered into the boat and returned.
et rogaverunt illum omnis multitudo regionis Gerasenorum ut discederet ab ipsis: quia magno timore tenebantur. Ipse autem ascendens navim, reversus est.
38 But the man from whom the demons had gone out begged him that he might go with him, but Jesus sent him away, saying,
Et rogabat illum vir, a quo dæmonia exierant, ut cum eo esset. Dimisit autem eum Jesus, dicens:
39 “Return to your house, and declare what great things God has done for you.” He went his way, proclaiming throughout the whole city what great things Jesus had done for him.
Redi in domum tuam, et narra quanta tibi fecit Deus. Et abiit per universam civitatem, prædicans quanta illi fecisset Jesus.
40 When Jesus returned, the multitude welcomed him, for they were all waiting for him.
Factum est autem cum rediisset Jesus, excepit illum turba: erunt enim omnes exspectantes eum.
41 Behold, a man named Jairus came. He was a ruler of the synagogue. He fell down at Jesus’ feet and begged him to come into his house,
Et ecce venit vir, cui nomen Jairus, et ipse princeps synagogæ erat: et cecidit ad pedes Jesu, rogans eum ut intraret in domum ejus,
42 for he had an only born daughter, about twelve years of age, and she was dying. But as he went, the multitudes pressed against him.
quia unica filia erat ei fere annorum duodecim, et hæc moriebatur. Et contigit, dum iret, a turba comprimebatur.
43 A woman who had a flow of blood for twelve years, who had spent all her living on physicians and could not be healed by any,
Et mulier quædam erat in fluxu sanguinis ab annis duodecim, quæ in medicos erogaverat omnem substantiam suam, nec ab ullo potuit curari:
44 came behind him and touched the fringe of his cloak. Immediately the flow of her blood stopped.
accessit retro, et tetigit fimbriam vestimenti ejus: et confestim stetit fluxus sanguinis ejus.
45 Jesus said, “Who touched me?” When all denied it, Peter and those with him said, “Master, the multitudes press and jostle you, and you say, ‘Who touched me?’”
Et ait Jesus: Quis est, qui me tetigit? Negantibus autem omnibus, dixit Petrus, et qui cum illo erant: Præceptor, turbæ te comprimunt, et affligunt, et dicis: Quis me tetigit?
46 But Jesus said, “Someone did touch me, for I perceived that power has gone out of me.”
Et dicit Jesus: Tetigit me aliquis: nam ego novi virtutem de me exiisse.
47 When the woman saw that she was not hidden, she came trembling; and falling down before him declared to him in the presence of all the people the reason why she had touched him, and how she was healed immediately.
Videns autem mulier, quia non latuit, tremens venit, et procidit ante pedes ejus: et ob quam causam tetigerit eum, indicavit coram omni populo: et quemadmodum confestim sanata sit.
48 He said to her, “Daughter, cheer up. Your faith has made you well. Go in peace.”
At ipse dixit ei: Filia, fides tua salvam te fecit: vade in pace.
49 While he still spoke, one from the ruler of the synagogue’s house came, saying to him, “Your daughter is dead. Don’t trouble the Teacher.”
Adhuc illo loquente, venit quidam ad principem synagogæ, dicens ei: Quia mortua est filia tua, noli vexare illum.
50 But Jesus hearing it, answered him, “Don’t be afraid. Only believe, and she will be healed.”
Jesus autem, audito hoc verbo, respondit patri puellæ: Noli timere, crede tantum, et salva erit.
51 When he came to the house, he didn’t allow anyone to enter in, except Peter, John, James, the father of the child, and her mother.
Et cum venisset domum, non permisit intrare secum quemquam, nisi Petrum, et Jacobum, et Joannem, et patrem, et matrem puellæ.
52 All were weeping and mourning her, but he said, “Don’t weep. She isn’t dead, but sleeping.”
Flebant autem omnes, et plangebant illam. At ille dixit: Nolite flere: non est mortua puella, sed dormit.
53 They were ridiculing him, knowing that she was dead.
Et deridebant eum, scientes quod mortua esset.
54 But he put them all outside, and taking her by the hand, he called, saying, “Child, arise!”
Ipse autem tenens manum ejus clamavit, dicens: Puella, surge.
55 Her spirit returned, and she rose up immediately. He commanded that something be given to her to eat.
Et reversus est spiritus ejus, et surrexit continuo. Et jussit illi dari manducare.
56 Her parents were amazed, but he commanded them to tell no one what had been done.
Et stupuerunt parentes ejus, quibus præcepit ne alicui dicerent quod factum erat.
