ylt @Luke:8:1 @And it came to pass thereafter , that he was going through every city and village , preaching and proclaiming good news of the reign of God , and the twelve [are ] with him , ylt @Luke:8:2 @and certain women , who were healed of evil spirits and infirmities , Mary who is called Magdalene , from whom seven demons had gone forth , ylt @Luke:8:3 @and Joanna wife of Chuza , steward of Herod , and Susanna , and many others , who were ministering to him from their substance . ylt @Luke:8:4 @And a great multitude having gathered , and those who from city and city were coming unto him , he spake by a simile : ylt @Luke:8:5 @'The sower went forth to sow his seed , and in his sowing some indeed fell beside the way , and it was trodden down , and the fowls of the heaven did devour it . ylt @Luke:8:6 @'And other fell upon the rock , and having sprung up , it did wither , through not having moisture . ylt @Luke:8:7 @'And other fell amidst the thorns , and the thorns having sprung up with it , did choke it . ylt @Luke:8:8 @'And other fell upon the good ground , and having sprung up , it made fruit an hundred fold .' These things saying , he was calling , 'He having ears to hear -- let him hear .' ylt @Luke:8:9 @And his disciples were questioning him , saying , 'What may this simile be ?' ylt @Luke:8:10 @And he said , 'To you it hath been given to know the secrets of the reign of God , and to the rest in similes ; that seeing they may not see , and hearing they may not understand . ylt @Luke:8:11 @'And this is the simile : The seed is the word of God , ylt @Luke:8:12 @and those beside the way are those hearing , then cometh the Devil , and taketh up the word from their heart , lest having believed , they may be saved . ylt @Luke:8:13 @'And those upon the rock : They who , when they may hear , with joy do receive the word , and these have no root , who for a time believe , and in time of temptation fall away . ylt @Luke:8:14 @'And that which fell to the thorns : These are they who have heard , and going forth , through anxieties , and riches , and pleasures of life , are choked , and bear not to completion . ylt @Luke:8:15 @'And that in the good ground : These are they , who in an upright and good heart , having heard the word , do retain [it ], and bear fruit in continuance . ylt @Luke:8:16 @'And no one having lighted a lamp doth cover it with a vessel , or under a couch doth put [it ]; but upon a lamp-stand he doth put [it ], that those coming in may see the light , ylt @Luke:8:17 @for nothing is secret , that shall not become manifest , nor hid , that shall not be known , and become manifest . ylt @Luke:8:18 @'See , therefore , how ye hear , for whoever may have , there shall be given to him , and whoever may not have , also what he seemeth to have , shall be taken from him .' ylt @Luke:8:19 @And there came unto him his mother and brethren , and they were not able to get to him because of the multitude , ylt @Luke:8:20 @and it was told him , saying , 'Thy mother and thy brethren do stand without , wishing to see thee ;' ylt @Luke:8:21 @and he answering said unto them , 'My mother and my brethren ! they are those who the word of God are hearing , and doing .' ylt @Luke:8:22 @And it came to pass , on one of the days , that he himself went into a boat with his disciples , and he said unto them , 'We may go over to the other side of the lake ;' and they set forth , ylt @Luke:8:23 @and as they are sailing he fell deeply asleep , and there came down a storm of wind to the lake , and they were filling , and were in peril . ylt @Luke:8:24 @And having come near , they awoke him , saying , 'Master , master , we perish ;' and he , having arisen , rebuked the wind and the raging of the water , and they ceased , and there came a calm , ylt @Luke:8:25 @and he said to them , 'Where is your faith ?' and they being afraid did wonder , saying unto one another , 'Who , then , is this , that even the winds he doth command , and the water , and they obey him ?' ylt @Luke:8:26 @And they sailed down to the region of the Gadarenes , that is over-against Galilee , ylt @Luke:8:27 @and he having gone forth upon the land , there met him a certain man , out of the city , who had demons for a long time , and with a garment was not clothed , and in a house was not abiding , but in the tombs , ylt @Luke:8:28 @and having seen Jesus , and having cried out , he fell before him , and with a loud voice , said , 'What -- to me and to thee , Jesus , Son of God Most High ? I beseech thee , mayest thou not afflict me !' ylt @Luke:8:29 @For he commanded the unclean spirit to come forth from the man , for many times it had caught him , and he was being bound with chains and fetters -- guarded , and breaking asunder the bonds he was driven by the demons to the deserts . ylt @Luke:8:30 @And Jesus questioned him , saying , 'What is thy name ?' and he said , 'Legion ,' (because many demons were entered into him ,) ylt @Luke:8:31 @and he was calling on him , that he may not command them to go away to the abyss , ylt @Luke:8:32 @and there was there a herd of many swine feeding in the mountain , and they were calling on him , that he might suffer them to enter into these , and he suffered them , ylt @Luke:8:33 @and the demons having gone forth from the man , did enter into the swine , and the herd rushed down the steep to the lake , and were choked . ylt @Luke:8:34 @And those feeding [them ], having seen what was come to pass , fled , and having gone , told [it ] to the city , and to the fields ; ylt @Luke:8:35 @and they came forth to see what was come to pass , and they came unto Jesus , and found the man sitting , out of whom the demons had gone forth , clothed , and right-minded , at the feet of Jesus , and they were afraid ; ylt @Luke:8:36 @and those also having seen [it ], told them how the demoniac was saved . ylt @Luke:8:37 @And the whole multitude of the region of the Gadarenes round about asked him to go away from them , because with great fear they were pressed , and he having entered into the boat , did turn back . ylt @Luke:8:38 @And the man from whom the demons had gone forth was beseeching of him to be with him , and Jesus sent him away , saying , ylt @Luke:8:39 @'Turn back to thy house , and tell how great things God did to thee ;' and he went away through all the city proclaiming how great things Jesus did to him . ylt @Luke:8:40 @And it came to pass , in the turning back of Jesus , the multitude received him , for they were all looking for him , ylt @Luke:8:41 @and lo , there came a man , whose name [is ] Jairus , and he was a chief of the synagogue , and having fallen at the feet of Jesus , was calling on him to come to his house ; ylt @Luke:8:42 @because he had an only daughter about twelve years [old ], and she was dying . And in his going away , the multitudes were thronging him , ylt @Luke:8:43 @and a woman , having an issue of blood for twelve years , who , having spent on physicians all her living , was not able to be healed by any , ylt @Luke:8:44 @having come near behind , touched the fringe of his garment , and presently the issue of her blood stood . ylt @Luke:8:45 @And Jesus said , 'Who [is ] it that touched me ?' and all denying , Peter and those with him said , 'Master , the multitudes press thee , and throng [thee ], and thou dost say , Who [is ] it that touched me !' ylt @Luke:8:46 @And Jesus said , 'Some one did touch me , for I knew power having gone forth from me .' ylt @Luke:8:47 @And the woman , having seen that she was not hid , trembling , came , and having fallen before him , for what cause she touched him declared to him before all the people , and how she was healed presently ; ylt @Luke:8:48 @and he said to her , 'Take courage , daughter , thy faith hath saved thee , be going on to peace .' ylt @Luke:8:49 @While he is yet speaking , there doth come a certain one from the chief of the synagogue 's [house ], saying to him -- 'Thy daughter hath died , harass not the Teacher ;' ylt @Luke:8:50 @and Jesus having heard , answered him , saying , 'Be not afraid , only believe , and she shall be saved .' ylt @Luke:8:51 @And having come to the house , he suffered no one to go in , except Peter , and James , and John , and the father of the child , and the mother ; ylt @Luke:8:52 @and they were all weeping , and beating themselves for her , and he said , 'Weep not , she did not die , but doth sleep ; ylt @Luke:8:53 @and they were deriding him , knowing that she did die ; ylt @Luke:8:54 @and he having put all forth without , and having taken hold of her hand , called , saying , 'Child , arise ;' ylt @Luke:8:55 @and her spirit came back , and she arose presently , and he directed that there be given to her to eat ; ylt @Luke:8:56 @and her parents were amazed , but he charged them to say to no one what was come to pass .
