Lucam 8
1 Et factum est deinceps, et ipse iter faciebat per civitates, et castella praedicans, et evangelizans regnum Dei: et duodecim cum illo,
It happened soon afterward that Jesus began traveling around to different cities and villages, preaching and proclaiming the good news about the kingdom of God. The twelve were with him,
2 et mulieres aliquae, quae erant curatae a spiritibus malignis, et infirmatibus: Maria, quae vocatur Magdalene, de qua septem daemonia exierant,
as well as certain women who had been healed of evil spirits and diseases: Mary who was called Magdalene, from whom seven demons had been driven out;
3 et Ioanna uxor Chusae procuratoris Herodis, et Susanna, et aliae multae, quae ministrabant ei de facultatibus suis.
Joanna, the wife of Chuza, Herod's manager; Susanna; and many others, who, out of their possessions, provided for their needs.
4 Cum autem turba plurima convenirent, et de civitatibus properarent ad eum, dixit per similitudinem:
While a large crowd of people was gathering, and people were coming to him from town after town, he told a parable:
5 Exiit qui seminat, seminare semen suum: et dum seminat, aliud cecidit secus viam, et conculcatum est, et volucres caeli comederunt illud.
“A farmer went out to sow his seed. As he sowed, some fell beside the road and it was trampled underfoot, and the birds of the sky devoured it.
6 Et aliud cecidit supra petram: et natum aruit, quia non habebat humorem.
Some fell on the rock, and as soon as it grew up, it withered away, because it had no moisture.
7 Et aliud cecidit inter spinas, et simul exortae spinae suffocaverunt illud.
Some fell among thorns, and the thorns grew up together with the seed and choked it.
8 Et aliud cecidit in terram bonam: et ortum fecit fructum centuplum. Haec dicens clamabat: Qui habet aures audiendi, audiat.
But some fell on good soil and produced a crop that was a hundred times greater.” After Jesus had said these things, he called out, “Whoever has ears to hear, let him hear.”
9 Interrogabant autem eum discipuli eius, quae esset haec parabola.
His disciples asked him what this parable meant.
10 Quibus ipse dixit: Vobis datum est nosse mysterium regni Dei, ceteris autem in parabolis: ut videntes non videant, et audientes non intelligant.
He said, “The knowledge of the secrets of the kingdom of God has been given to you, but for others I speak in parables, so that 'seeing they may not see, and hearing they may not understand.'
11 Est autem haec parabola: Semen est verbum Dei.
Now this is the meaning of the parable: The seed is the word of God.
12 Qui autem secus viam, hi sunt qui audiunt: deinde venit diabolus, et tollit verbum de corde eorum, ne credentes salvi fiant.
The ones along the path are those who have heard, but then the devil comes and takes away the word from their hearts, so they may not believe and be saved.
13 Nam qui supra petram: qui cum audierint, cum gaudio suscipiunt verbum: et hi radices non habent: quia ad tempus credunt, et in tempore tentationis recedunt.
The ones on the rock are those who, when they hear the word, receive it with joy. But they have no root; they believe for a while, and in a time of testing they fall away.
14 Quod autem in spinas cecidit: hi sunt, qui audierunt, et a solicitudinibus, et divitiis, et voluptatibus vitae euntes, suffocantur, et non referunt fructum.
The seeds that fell among the thorns are people who hear the word, but as they go on their way, they are choked by the cares and riches and pleasures of this life, and their fruit does not mature.
15 Quod autem in bonam terram: hi sunt, qui in corde bono et optimo audientes verbum retinent, et fructum afferunt in patientia.
But the seed that fell on the good soil, these are the ones who, hearing the word with an honest and good heart, hold it securely and bear fruit with patient endurance.
16 Nemo autem lucernam accendens, operit eam vase, aut subtus lectum ponit: sed supra candelabrum ponit, ut intrantes videant lumen.
No one lights a lamp and covers it with a bowl or puts it under a bed. Rather, he puts it on a lampstand so that everyone who enters may see the light.
17 Non est enim occultum, quod non manifestetur: nec absconditum, quod non cognoscatur, et in palam veniat.
For nothing is hidden that will not be made known, nor is anything secret that will not be known and come into the light.
18 Videte ergo quomodo audiatis? Qui enim habet, dabitur illi: et quicumque non habet, etiam quod putat se habere, auferetur ab illo.
So listen carefully, for to the one who has, more will be given to him, but the one who does not have, even what he thinks he has will be taken away from him.”
19 Venerunt autem ad illum mater, et fratres eius, et non poterant adire eum prae turba.
Then his mother and brothers came to him, but they could not get near him because of the crowd.
20 Et nunciatum est illi: Mater tua, et fratres tui stant foris, volentes te videre.
He was told, “Your mother and your brothers are standing outside, wanting to see you.”
21 Qui respondens, dixit ad eos: Mater mea, et fratres mei hi sunt, qui verbum Dei audiunt, et faciunt.
But Jesus answered and said to them, “My mother and my brothers are those who hear the word of God and do it.”
22 Factum est autem in una dierum: et ipse ascendit in naviculam, et discipuli eius, et ait ad illos: Transfretemus trans stagnum. Et ascenderunt.
Now one day he got into a boat with his disciples, and he said to them, “Let us go over to the other side of the lake.” They set sail.
23 Et navigantibus illis, obdormivit, et descendit procella venti in stagnum, et compellebantur, et periclitabantur.
But as they sailed he fell asleep. A terrible windstorm came down on the lake, and their boat was filling with water, and they were in danger.
24 Accedentes autem suscitaverunt eum, dicentes: Praeceptor, perimus. At ille surgens, increpavit ventum, et tempestatem aquae, et cessavit: et facta est tranquillitas.
Then Jesus' disciples came over to him and woke him up, saying, “Master! Master! We are about to die!” He awoke and rebuked the wind and the raging of the water, and they ceased, and there was a calm.
25 Dixit autem illis: Ubi est fides vestra? Qui timentes, mirati sunt ad invicem, dicentes: Quis putas hic est, quia ventis, et mari imperat, et obediunt ei?
Then he said to them, “Where is your faith?” and they were afraid. While they were afraid they were also amazed, and they asked one another, “Who then is this, that he commands even the winds and the water, and they obey him?”
26 Et navigaverunt ad regionem Gerasenorum, quae est contra Galilaeam.
They sailed to the region of the Gerasenes, which is across the lake from Galilee.
27 Et cum de navi egressus esset ad terram, occurrit illi vir quidam, qui habebat daemonium iam temporibus multis, et vestimento non induebatur, neque in domo manebat, sed in monumentis.
When Jesus stepped on the land, he was met by a certain man from the city who had demons. For a long time he had worn no clothes, and he did not live in a house but among the tombs.
28 Is, ut vidit Iesum, procidit ante illum: et exclamans voce magna, dixit: Quid mihi, et tibi est Iesu Fili Dei Altissimi? obsecro te, ne me torqueas.
When he saw Jesus, he cried out and fell down before him and he said with a loud voice, “What have you to do with me, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I beg you, do not torment me.”
29 Praecipiebat enim spiritui immundo ut exiret ab homine. Multis enim temporibus arripiebat illum, et vinciebatur catenis, et compedibus custoditus. et ruptis vinculis agebatur a daemonio in deserta.
For Jesus had commanded the unclean spirit to come out of the man. For many times it had seized him, and though he was bound with chains and shackles and kept under guard, he had broken his chains and he would be driven by the demon into the wilderness.
30 Interrogavit autem illum Iesus, dicens: Quod tibi nomen est? At ille dixit: Legio: quia intraverant daemonia multa in eum.
Then Jesus asked him, “What is your name?” and he said, “Legion,” for many demons had entered into him.
They kept begging him not to send them into the abyss. (Abyssos g12)
32 Erat autem ibi grex porcorum multorum pascentium in monte: et rogabant eum, ut permitteret eis in illos ingredi. Et permisit illis.
Now a large herd of pigs was there feeding on the hillside. The demons begged him to let them go into them, and he gave them permission.
33 Exierunt ergo daemonia ab homine, et intraverunt in porcos: et impetu abiit grex per praeceps in stagnum, et suffocatus est.
So the demons came out of the man and went into the pigs, and the herd rushed down the steep slope into the lake and was drowned.
34 Quod ut viderunt factum qui pascebant, fugerunt, et nunciaverunt in civitatem, et in villas.
When those tending the pigs saw what had happened, they ran off and told about it in the city and countryside.
35 Exierunt autem videre quod factum est, et venerunt ad Iesum: et invenerunt hominem sedentem, a quo daemonia exierant, vestitum ac sana mente ad pedes eius, et timuerunt.
So the people went out to see what had happened, and they came to Jesus and found the man from whom the demons had gone out. He was sitting at the feet of Jesus, clothed and in his right mind; and they were afraid.
36 Nunciaverunt autem illis et qui viderant, quomodo sanus factus esset a legione:
Then those who had seen it told them how the man who had been possessed by demons had been healed.
37 et rogaverunt illum omnis multitudo regionis Gerasenorum ut discederet ab ipsis: quia magno timore tenebantur. Ipse autem ascendens navim, reversus est.
Then all the people of the region of the Gerasenes asked Jesus to depart from them, for they were overwhelmed with great fear. So he got into the boat so they could start back.
38 Et rogabat illum vir, a quo daemonia exierant, ut cum eo esset. Dimisit autem eum Iesus, dicens:
The man from whom the demons had gone out begged him to let him go with him, but Jesus sent him away, saying,
39 Redi in domum tuam, et narra quanta tibi fecit Deus. Et abiit per universam civitatem, praedicans quanta illi fecisset Iesus.
“Return to your home and give a full account of what God has done for you.” The man went on his way, proclaiming throughout the whole city what Jesus had done for him.
40 Factum est autem cum rediisset Iesus, excepit illum turba. erunt enim omnes expectantes eum.
Now when Jesus returned, the crowd welcomed him, for they were all expecting him.
41 Et ecce venit vir, cui nomen Iairus, et ipse princeps synagogae erat: et cecidit ad pedes Iesu, rogans eum ut intraret in domum eius,
Behold, a man named Jairus, who was one of the leaders of the synagogue, came and fell down at Jesus' feet, and he begged him to come to his house,
42 quia unica filia erat ei fere annorum duodecim, et haec moriebatur. Et contigit, dum iret, a turba comprimebatur.
because his only daughter, a girl of about twelve years of age, was dying. As Jesus was on his way, the crowds of people pressed together around him.
43 Et mulier quaedam erat in fluxu sanguinis ab annis duodecim, quae in medicos erogaverat omnem substantiam suam, nec ab ullo potuit curari:
Now a woman was there who had been bleeding for twelve years and had spent all her money, and could not be healed by anyone.
44 accessit retro, et tetigit fimbriam vestimenti eius: et confestim stetit fluxus sanguinis eius.
She came behind Jesus and touched the edge of his coat, and immediately her bleeding stopped.
45 Et ait Iesus: Quis est, qui me tetigit? Negantibus autem omnibus, dixit Petrus, et qui cum illo erant: Praeceptor, turbae te comprimunt, et affligunt, et dicis: Quis me tetigit?
Jesus said, “Who was it who touched me?” When all denied it, Peter said, “Master, the crowds of people are all around you and they are pressing in against you.”
46 Et dicit Iesus: Tetigit me aliquis. nam et ego novi virtutem de me exiisse.
But Jesus said, “Someone did touch me, for I know that power has gone out from me.”
47 Videns autem mulier, quia non latuit, tremens venit, et procidit ante pedes eius: et ob quam causam tetigerit eum, indicavit coram omni populo: et quemadmodum confestim sanata sit.
When the woman saw that she could not escape notice, she came trembling and fell down before him. In the presence of all the people she declared why she had touched him and how she had been immediately healed.
48 At ipse dixit ei: Filia, fides tua salvam te fecit: vade in pace.
Then he said to her, “Daughter, your faith has made you well. Go in peace.”
49 Adhuc illo loquente, venit quidam ad principem synagogae, dicens ei: Quia mortua est filia tua, noli vexare illum.
While he was still speaking, someone came from the synagogue leader's house, saying, “Your daughter is dead. Do not trouble the teacher any longer.”
50 Iesus autem, audito hoc verbo, respondit patri puellae: Noli timere, crede tantum, et salva erit.
But when Jesus heard this, he answered Jairus, “Do not be afraid; only believe, and she will be healed.”
51 Et cum venisset domum, non permisit intrare secum quemquam, nisi Petrum, et Iacobum, et Ioannem, et patrem, et matrem puellae.
When he came to the house, he allowed no one to enter with him, except Peter and John and James, and the father of the child and her mother.
52 Flebant autem omnes, et plangebant illam. At ille dixit: Nolite flere, non est mortua puella, sed dormit.
Now all were mourning and wailing for her, but he said, “Do not weep; she is not dead but asleep.”
53 Et deridebant eum, scientes quod mortua esset.
But they laughed at him, knowing that she was dead.
54 Ipse autem tenens manum eius clamavit, dicens: Puella, surge.
But he took her by the hand and called out, saying, “Child, get up!”
55 Et reversus est spiritus eius, et surrexit continuo. Et iussit illi dari manducare.
Her spirit returned, and she rose up immediately. He ordered them to get her something to eat.
56 Et stupuerunt parentes eius, quibus praecepit ne alicui dicerent quod factum erat.
Her parents were astonished, but he ordered them to tell no one what had happened.
