1 And it came G1096 to pass ἐγένετο egeneto G1096 soon afterwards, that he went about through cities πόλιν polin G4172 and villages κώμην kōmēn G2968 , preaching κηρύσσων kērussōn G2784 and bringing the good tidings of the kingdom βασιλείαν basileian G932 of God θεοῦ theou G2316 , and with him the twelve δώδεκα dōdeka G1427 , 3 and Joanna Ἰωάννα Iōanna G2489 the wife γυνὴ gunē G1135 of Chuzas Herod’s steward , and Susanna , and many πολλαὶ pollai G4183 others ἕτεραι heterai G2087 , who ministered διηκόνουν diēkonoun G1247 unto them of their substance. 4 And when a great πολλοῦ pollou G4183 multitude G3793 came together , and they of every city G4172 resorted unto him , he spake by a parable παραβολῆς· parabolēs G3850 : 6 And other ἕτερον heteron G2087 fell on the rock πέτραν, petran G4073 ; and as soon as it grew , it withered ἐξηράνθη exēranthē G3583 away G3583 , because it had no moisture . 7 And other ἕτερον heteron G2087 fell G4098 amidst the thorns ἀκανθῶν, akanthōn G173 ; and the thorns ἄκανθαι akanthai G173 grew with it , and choked it . 8 And other ἕτερον heteron G2087 fell G4098 into the good ἀγαθήν, agathēn G18 ground G1093 , and grew , and brought forth fruit καρπὸν karpon G2590 a hundredfold. As he said λέγων legōn G3004 these things ταῦτα tauta G3778 , he cried , He that hath ears ὦτα ōta G3775 to hear ἀκούειν akouein G191 , let him hear ἀκουέτω.¶ akouetō G191 . 10 And he said G3004 , Unto you it is given G1325 to know γνῶναι gnōnai G1097 the mysteries μυστήρια mustēria G3466 of the kingdom βασιλείας basileias G932 of God θεοῦ, theou G2316 : but to the rest λοιποῖς loipois G3062 in parables G3850 ; that seeing βλέποντες blepontes G991 they may not see βλέπωσιν blepōsin G991 , and hearing ἀκούοντες akouontes G191 they may not understand συνιῶσιν. suniōsin G4920 . 13 And those on the rock πέτρας, petras G4073 are they who , when ὅταν hotan G3752 they have heard ἀκούσωσιν akousōsin G191 , receive δέχονται dechontai G1209 the word λόγον· logon G3056 with joy χαρᾶς charas G5479 ; and these have no root ῥίζαν rhizan G4491 , who for a while believe πιστεύουσιν pisteuousin G4100 , and in time G2540 of temptation G3986 fall away ἀφίστανται. aphistantai G868 . 14 And that which fell G4098 among the thorns ἀκάνθας akanthas G173 , these are G1510 they that have heard G191 , and as they go G4198 on their way they are G1510 choked G4846 with cares G3308 and riches πλούτου ploutou G4149 and pleasures of this life βίου biou G979 , and bring no fruit to perfection. 16 And no man , when he hath lighted a lamp λύχνον luchnon G3088 , covereth it with a vessel σκεύει skeuei G4632 , or putteth it under a bed κλίνης klinēs G2825 ; but putteth it on a stand, that they that enter εἰσπορευόμενοι eisporeuomenoi G1531 in may see βλέπωσιν blepōsin G991 the light φῶς. phōs G5457 . 18 Take G142 heed Βλέπετε Blepete G991 therefore οὖν oun G3767 how πῶς pōs G4459 ye hear ἀκούετε· akouete G191 : for whosoever hath, to him shall be given G1325 ; and whosoever hath not , from him shall be taken G142 away ἀρθήσεται arthēsetai G142 even G2532 that which he thinketh he hath. 19 And there came G3854 to him his mother μήτηρ mētēr G3384 and brethren , and they could not come G3854 at him for the crowd ὄχλον. ochlon G3793 . 21 But he answered ἀποκριθεὶς apokritheis G611 and said G3004 unto them , My mother μήτηρ mētēr G3384 and my brethren are G1510 these that hear ἀκούοντες akouontes G191 the word λόγον logon G3056 of God θεοῦ theou G2316 , and do it . 23 But as they sailed πλεόντων pleontōn G4126 he fell asleep: and there came G2597 down a storm λαῖλαψ lailaps G2978 of wind ἀνέμου anemou G417 on the lake λίμνην, limnēn G3041 ; and they were filling with water, and were in jeopardy. 24 And they came προσελθόντες proselthontes G4334 to him , and awoke him , saying λέγοντες· legontes G3004 , Master ἐπιστάτα epistata G1988 , master ἐπιστάτα, epistata G1988 , we perish ἀπολλύμεθα. apollumetha G622 . And he awoke, and rebuked G2008 the wind ἀνέμῳ anemō G417 and the raging of the water ὕδατος. hudatos G5204 : and they ceased G3973 , and there was a calm γαλήνη.¶ galēnē G1055 . 25 And he said λέγοντες legontes G3004 unto them , Where ποῦ pou G4226 is G1510 your faith πίστις pistis G4102 ? And being G1510 afraid φοβηθέντες phobēthentes G5399 they marvelled, saying G3004 one ἀλλήλους· allēlous G240 to another , Who then is G1510 this , that he commandeth even G2532 the winds ἀνέμοις anemois G417 and the water ὕδατι, hudati G5204 , and they obey ὑπακούουσιν hupakouousin G5219 him ? 26 And they arrived at the country G5561 of the Gerasenes Γερασηνῶν Gerasēnōn G1086 , which is G1510 over against Galilee Γαλιλαίας.¶ Galilaias G1056 . 27 And when he was come G1831 forth Ἐξελθόντι Exelthonti G1831 upon the land γῆν gēn G1093 , there met him a certain τις tis G5100 man ἀνήρ anēr G435 out of the city πόλεως poleōs G4172 , who had demons δαιμόνια. daimonia G1140 ; and for a long time χρόνῳ chronō G5550 he had worn no clothes ἱμάτιον himation G2440 , and abode not in any house οἰκίᾳ oikia G3614 , but in the tombs μνήμασιν. mnēmasin G3418 . 28 And when he saw G3708 Jesus Ἰησοῦν Iēsoun G2424 , he cried out , and fell down προσέπεσεν prosepesen G4363 before him , and with a loud μεγάλῃ megalē G3173 voice φωνῇ phōnēa G5456 said G3004 , What have I to do with thee, Jesus Ἰησοῦ, Iēsou G2424 , thou Son υἱὲ huie G5207 of the Most ὑψίστου; hupsistou G5310 High G5310 God θεοῦ theou G2316 ? I beseech thee, torment βασανίσῃς. basanisēs G928 me not . 29 For he was commanding παρήγγειλεν parēngeilen G3853 the unclean ἀκαθάρτῳ akathartō G169 spirit πνεύματι pneumati G4151 to come ἐξελθεῖν exelthein G1831 out from the man ἀνθρώπου· anthrōpou G444 . For oftentimes it had seized him : and he was kept G5442 under guard G5442 , and bound with chains ἁλύσεσιν halusesin G254 and fetters; and breaking the bands asunder, he was driven of the demon δαιμονίου daimoniou G1140 into the deserts . 31 And they entreated him that he would not command ἐπιτάξῃ epitaxē G2004 them to depart G565 into the abyss ἄβυσσον abusson G12 . 32 Now δὲ de G1161 there was G1510 there a herd ἀγέλη agelē G34 of many ἱκανῶν hikanōn G2425 swine feeding βοσκομένη boskomenē G1006 on the mountain ὄρει, orei G3735 : and they entreated him that he would give them leave to enter εἰσελθεῖν. eiselthein G1525 into them . And he gave them leave. 33 And the demons δαιμόνια daimonia G1140 came G1831 out from the man ἀνθρώπου anthrōpou G444 , and entered εἰσῆλθον eisēlthon G1525 into the swine : and the herd ἀγέλη agelē G34 rushed ὥρμησεν hōrmēsen G3729 down the steep κρημνοῦ krēmnou G2911 into the lake λίμνην limnēn G3041 , and were drowned . 36 And they that saw G3708 it told G518 them how πῶς pōs G4459 he that was possessed with demons was made whole. 37 And all the people of the country of the Gerasenes Γερασηνῶν Gerasēnōn G1086 round about asked ἠρώτησεν ērōtēsen G2065 him to depart ἀπελθεῖν apelthein G565 from them ; for they were holden with great μεγάλῳ megalō G3173 fear φόβῳ phobō G5401 : and he entered into a boat πλοῖον ploion G4143 , and returned G5290 . 39 Return ὑπόστρεφε hupostrephe G5290 to thy house οἶκόν oikon G3624 , and declare how ὅσα hosa G3745 great things God θεός. theos G2316 hath done for thee. And he went G565 his way , publishing throughout the whole G3650 city πόλιν polin G4172 how ὅσα hosa G3745 great things Jesus Ἰησοῦς.¶ Iēsous G2424 had done for him . 40 And as Jesus Ἰησοῦν Iēsoun G2424 returned ὑποστρέφειν hupostrephein G5290 , the multitude G3793 welcomed him ; for they were G1510 all waiting for him . 42 for he had an only μονογενὴς monogenēs G3439 daughter θυγάτηρ thugatēr G2364 , about twelve δώδεκα dōdeka G1427 years ἐτῶν etōn G2094 of age , and she was G1510 dying G599 . But as he went ὑπάγειν hupagein G5217 the multitudes G3793 thronged him . 43 And a woman γυνὴ gunē G1135 having an issue of blood αἵματος aimatos G129 twelve δώδεκα, dōdeka G1427 years ἐτῶν etōn G2094 , who had spent all her living upon physicians ἰατροῖς iatrois G2395 , and could not be G1510 healed θεραπευθῆναι, therapeuthēnai G2323 of any , 44 came προσελθοῦσα proselthousa G4334 behind him , and touched ἥψατο hēpsato G681 the border of his garment G2440 : and immediately παραχρῆμα parachrēma G3916 the issue of her blood αἵματος aimatos G129 stanched. 45 And Jesus Ἰησοῦς· Iēsous G2424 said G3004 , Who is it that touched ἁψάμενός hapsamenos G681 me ? And when all denied ἀρνουμένων arnoumenōn G720 , Peter Πέτρος Petros G4074 said G3004 , and they that were with him , Master ἐπιστάτα, epistata G1988 , the multitudes G3793 press thee and crush thee. 47 And when G5613 the woman γυνὴ gunē G1135 saw G3708 that she was not hid, she came G2064 trembling , and falling down προσπεσοῦσα prospesousa G4363 before him declared G518 in the presence G1799 of all the people λαοῦ laou G2992 for what cause αἰτίαν aitian G156 she touched ἥψατο hēpsato G681 him , and how ὡς hōs G5613 she was healed ἰάθη iathē G2390 immediately παραχρῆμα. parachrēma G3916 . 48 And he said G3004 unto her , Daughter θυγάτηρ, thugatēr G2364 , thy faith πίστις pistis G4102 hath made thee whole; go πορεύου poreuou G4198 in peace εἰρήνην.¶ eirēnēn G1515 . 49 While he yet G2089 spake, there cometh one τις tis G5100 from the ruler of the synagogue’s house , saying λέγων legōn G3004 , Thy daughter θυγάτηρ thugatēr G2364 is dead ; trouble σκύλλε skulle G4660 not the Teacher διδάσκαλον. didaskalon G1320 . 50 But Jesus Ἰησοῦς Iēsous G2424 hearing G191 it , answered ἀπεκρίθη apekrithē G611 him , Fear φοβοῦ· phobou G5399 not : only G3440 believe πίστευσον, pisteuson G4100 , and she shall be made whole. 51 And when he came G2064 to the house οἰκίαν oikian G3614 , he suffered not any man to enter G1525 in with him , save Peter Πέτρον Petron G4074 , and John Ἰωάννην Iōannēn G2491 , and James Ἰάκωβον, Iakōbon G2385 , and the father πατέρα patera G3962 of the maiden and her mother μητέρα. mētera G3384 . 52 And all were weeping ἔκλαιον eklaion G2799 , and bewailing her : but he said G3004 , Weep κλαίετε· klaiete G2799 not ; for she is not dead ἀπέθανεν apethanen G599 , but sleepeth. 53 And they laughed him to scorn, knowing that she was dead ἀπέθανεν. apethanen G599 . 54 But he , taking G2902 her by the hand χειρὸς cheiros G5495 , called , saying λέγων· legōn G3004 , Maiden, arise ἔγειρε. egeire G1453 . 56 And her parents γονεῖς goneis G1118 were amazed : but he charged them to tell G3004 no man what had been done . ← Luke 7 Luke 9 → American Standard Version — 1901 — Public Domain
