Luke 8
1 And it came to passe afterwarde, that hee himselfe went through euery citie and towne, preaching and publishing the kingdome of God, and the twelue were with him,
And it came to pass consecutively, that He was going through city and village, proclaiming and preaching the gospel of God, and the twelve along with Him.
2 And certaine women, which were healed of euill spirites, and infirmities, as Mary which was called Magdalene, out of whom went seuen deuils,
And certain women who had been healed of evil spirits and infirmities, Mary called Magdalene, from whom seven demons had gone out,
3 And Ioanna the wife of Chuza Herods steward, and Susanna, and many other which ministred vnto him of their substance.
and Joanna the wife of Chuzas the steward of Herod, and Susanna, and many other women, who were accustomed to minister unto Him from those things belonging to them.
4 Nowe when much people were gathered together, and were come vnto him out of all cities, he spake by a parable.
A great multitude being with Him, and coming to Him throughout every city, He spoke in a parable:
5 A sower went out to sowe his seede, and as he sowed, some fell by the wayes side, and it was troden vnder feete, and the foules of heauen deuoured it vp.
A sower went out to sow his seed. And while he was sowing, some fell by the way, and was trodden under foot, and the birds of the air devoured it.
6 And some fell on the stones, and when it was sprong vp, it withered away, because it lacked moystnesse.
And other fell on the rock; and springing up, withered away, because it had no moisture.
7 And some fell among thornes, and the thornes sprang vp with it, and choked it.
And other fell in the midst of thorns, and the thorns growing together, choked it out.
8 And some fell on good ground, and sprang vp, and bare fruite, an hundreth folde. And as hee sayd these things, he cryed, He that hath eares to heare, let him heare.
And other fell into good ground, and springing up, produced fruit, a hundredfold. Speaking these things, He cried out, Let the one having ears to hear, hear.
9 Then his disciples asked him, demaunding what parable that was.
And His disciples asked Him saying, What might this parable be?
10 And he sayd, Vnto you it is giuen to know the secrets of ye kingdome of God, but to other in parables, that when they see, they shoulde not see, and when they heare, they should not vnderstand.
And He said; To you it has been given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of God: but to the rest in parables; in order that seeing they may not see, and hearing they may not understand.
11 The parable is this, The seede is the worde of God.
And this is the parable: The seed is the word of God.
12 And they that are beside the way, are they that heare: afterward commeth the deuill, and taketh away the worde out of their hearts, least they should beleeue, and be saued.
And there are those who hear by the wayside; then the devil comes, and takes away the word from their heart, lest they believing may be saved.
13 But they that are on the stones, are they which when they haue heard, receiue ye word with ioy: but they haue no rootes: which for a while beleeue, but in the time of tentation goe away.
And those on the stones are they who, when they may hear, receive the word with joy; and they have no root in them, who believe for a time, and in time of temptation they fall away.
14 And that which fell among thornes, are they which haue heard, and after their departure are choked with cares and with riches, and voluptuous liuing, and bring forth no fruite.
And that which falleth among thorns, there are those who hear, and going forward, by the cares and riches and pleasures are choked out, and bring forth no fruit to perfection.
15 But that which fell in good ground, are they which with an honest and good heart heare the worde, and keepe it, and bring forth fruite with patience.
And that which is in the good ground, are those whosoever hearing the word in a beautiful and good heart, retain it, and bring forth fruit with patience.
16 No man when he hath lighted a candle, couereth it vnder a vessell, neither putteth it vnder the bed, but setteth it on a candlesticke, that they that enter in, may see the light.
But no one having lighted a candle covers it with a vessel, or puts it under a bed; but he places it on a candlestick, in order that those coming in may see the light.
17 For nothing is secret, that shall not be euident: neither any thing hid, that shall not be knowen, and come to light.
For there is nothing hidden which shall not be made manifest; neither is there any thing concealed, which may not be made known and come into the light.
18 Take heede therefore how ye heare: for whosoeuer hath, to him shall be giuen: and whosoeuer hath not, from him shalbe taken euen that which it seemeth that he hath.
Therefore see how you hear: for whosoever may have, it shall be given unto him; and whosoever may not have, it shall be taken from him, even that which he seems to have.
19 Then came to him his mother and his brethren, and could not come neere to him for the preasse.
And His mother and His brothers came to Him, and were not able to reach Him on account of the crowd.
20 And it was tolde him by certaine which said, Thy mother and thy brethren stand without, and would see thee.
And it was told Him, Thy mother and thy brothers stand without, wishing to see thee.
21 But he answered, and sayd vnto them, My mother and my brethren are these which heare the worde of God, and doe it.
And He responding said to them, My mother and my brothers are the ones hearing the word of God, and doing it.
22 And it came to passe on a certaine day, that he went into a ship with his disciples, and he sayd vnto them, Let vs goe ouer vnto the other side of the lake. And they lanched forth.
And it came to pass on one of the days, He and His disciples went into a ship. And He said to them, Let us go to the other side of the lake. And they were embarked.
23 And as they sayled, he fell a sleepe, and there came downe a storme of winde on the lake, and they were filled with water, and were in ieopardie.
And they sailing, He was asleep: and a storm of wind came down into the lake; and they were being filled, and imperiled.
24 Then they went to him, and awoke him, saying, Master, Master, we perish. And he arose, and rebuked the winde, and the waues of water: and they ceased, and it was calme.
And they having come to Him, awakened Him, saying, Master, Master, we perish. And He having arisen, rebuked the wind and the wave of the water: and they ceased, and there was a calm.
25 Then he sayde vnto them, Where is your fayth? and they feared, and wondered among them selues, saying, Who is this that commandeth both the windes and water, and they obey him!
And He said to them, Where is your faith? And they being afraid were astonished, saying to one another, Who then is this, because He commands the winds and the water, and they obey Him?
26 So they sailed vnto the region of the Gadarenes, which is ouer against Galile.
And they sailed into the country of the Gergesenes, which is over against Galilee.
27 And as he went out to land, there met him a certaine man out of the citie, which had deuils long time, and he ware no garment, neither abode in house, but in the graues.
And a certain man from the city, who a long time had demons, and did not wear clothing, and did not remain in the house, but in the tombs; met Him having come to the land.
28 And when he sawe Iesus, he cryed out and fell downe before him, and with a loude voyce sayd, What haue I to doe with thee, Iesus the Sonne of God the most High? I beseech thee torment me not.
And seeing Jesus, and crying out, he worshiped Him, and said with a loud voice; What is there to me and to thee, O Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I pray thee torment me not.
29 For he commanded ye foule spirit to come out of the man: (for oft times he had caught him: therefore he was bound with chaines, and kept in fetters: but he brake the bands, and was caried of the deuill into wildernesses.)
For He commanded the unclean spirit to come out from the man; for since a long time he had possessed him, and he was frequently bound, secured with chains and fetters, and smashing his bonds, was driven by the demons into the desert.
30 Then Iesus asked him, saying, What is thy name? and he sayd, Legion, because many deuils were entred into him.
And Jesus asked him saying, What is thy name? And he said Legion; because many demons entered into him.
And he continued to intreat Him that He should not command them to depart into the abyss. (Abyssos g12)
32 And there was there by, an hearde of many swine, feeding on an hill: and the deuils besought him, that he would suffer them to enter into them. So he suffered them.
And there was a herd of many swine feeding in the mountain: and they continued to intreat Him that He should permit them to go into them. And He permitted them.
33 Then went the deuils out of the man, and entred into the swine: and the hearde was caried with violence from a steepe downe place into the lake, and was choked.
And the demons having come out from the man, came into the swine: and the herd rushed down a precipice into the sea, and were strangled.
34 When the heardmen sawe what was done, they fled: and when they were departed, they tolde it in the citie and in the countrey.
And the herders seeing that which took place, fled, and proclaimed it in the city and in the country.
35 Then they came out to see what was done, and came to Iesus, and found the man, out of whom the deuils were departed, sitting at the feete of Iesus, clothed, and in his right minde: and they were afrayd.
And they came out to see that which had happened; and came to Jesus, and found the man, out of whom the demons had gone, clothed and in his right mind, at the feet of Jesus: and they were afraid.
36 They also which saw it, tolde them by what meanes he that was possessed with the deuill, was healed.
And those seeing reported to them how the demonized man was saved.
37 Then the whole multitude of the countrey about the Gadarenes, besought him that he would depart from them: for they were taken with a great feare: and he went into the ship, and returned.
And all the multitudes of the surrounding country of the Gergesenes, asked Him to depart from them; because they were seized with great fear. And He having come Into the ship, returned.
38 Then the man, out of whome the deuils were departed, besought him that hee might be with him: but Iesus sent him away, saying,
And the man out of whom the demons had gone prayed to be with Him. And Jesus sent him away, saying,
39 Returne into thine owne house, and shewe what great things God hath done to thee. So hee went his way, and preached throughout all the citie, what great things Iesus had done vnto him.
Return to thy own house, and relate, how many things God has done unto thee. And he departed throughout the whole city, preaching how many things Jesus did unto him.
40 And it came to passe, when Iesus was come againe, that the people receiued him: for they all waited for him.
And it came to pass when Jesus returned, the multitude received Him; for they were all looking for Him.
41 And beholde, there came a man named Iairus, and he was the ruler of the Synagogue, who fell downe at Iesus feete, and besought him that he would come into his house.
Behold, a man to whom was the name Jairus, and he was a ruler of the synagogue: and falling at the feet of Jesus, he continued to intreat Him to come into his house;
42 For he had but a daughter onely, about twelue yeeres of age, and she lay a dying (and as he went, the people thronged him.
for there was an only daughter to him, of twelve years, and she was dying. And while He was going the multitudes were thronging Him.
43 And a woman hauing an yssue of blood, twelue yeeres long, which had spent all her substance vpon physicians, and could not be healed of any:
And a woman being in an issue of blood twelve years, who having expended all her living with physicians, was not able to be healed by any of them,
44 When she came behind him, she touched the hemme of his garment, and immediatly her yssue of blood stanched.
and having come to Him behind, she touched the hem of His garment: and immediately the issue of blood ceased.
45 Then Iesus sayd, Who is it that hath touched me? When euery man denied, Peter sayd and they that were with him, Master, the multitude thrust thee, and tread on thee, and sayest thou, Who hath touched me?
And Jesus said, Who is the one having touched me? And all denying, Peter and the disciples with Him said, The multitudes crowd thee and press upon thee, and dost thou say, Who is the one having touched me?
46 And Iesus sayde, Some one hath touched me: for I perceiue that vertue is gone out of me.
And Jesus said, Some one touched me: for I know the power went out from me.
47 When the woman sawe that she was not hid, she came trembling, and fell downe before him, and tolde him before all the people, for what cause she had touched him, and how she was healed immediatly.
And the woman seeing that she was not concealed, came trembling, and falling down before Him, proclaimed on account of what cause she touched Him, in the presence of all the people, and how she was healed immediately.
48 And he said vnto her, Daughter, be of good comfort: thy faith hath saued thee: go in peace.)
And He said to her, Be of good cheer, daughter; thy faith hath saved thee; go in peace.
49 While he yet spake, there came one from the ruler of the Synagogues house, which sayde to him, Thy daughter is dead: disease not the Master.
And He yet speaking, a certain one comes from the house of the chief ruler of the synagogue, saying to him, Thy daughter is dead; trouble not the Teacher:
50 When Iesus heard it, he answered him, saying, Feare not: beleeue onely, and she shall be saued.
and Jesus hearing, responded to him, saying, Fear not: only believe, and she shall be saved.
51 And when he went into the house, he suffered no man to goe in with him, saue Peter, and Iames, and Iohn, and the father and mother of the maide.
And having come to the house, He did not suffer any to enter except Peter, John, and James, and the father and mother of the child.
52 And all wept, and sorowed for her: but he sayd, Weepe not: for she is not dead, but sleepeth.
And they were all weeping, and wailing over her: and He said, Weep not; she is not dead, but sleepeth.
53 And they laught him to scorne, knowing that she was dead.
And they hooted at Him, knowing that she was dead.
54 So he thrust them all out, and tooke her by the hand, and cryed, saying, Maide, arise.
And having put all out, taking her by the hand, He spoke, saying, Child, arise.
55 And her spirite came againe, and she rose straightway: and he comanded to giue her meate.
And her spirit returned, and she stood up immediately. And He commanded that something should be given to her to eat.
56 Then her parents were astonied: but hee commanded them that they should tell no man what was done.
And her parents were delighted: and He commanded them to tell no one that which had taken place.
