Luke 8:1
|
|
And it came to pass soon afterwards, that he
went about through cities and villages, preaching and bringing the good tidings
of the kingdom of God, and with him the twelve, |
|
|
|
|
|
Luke 8:2
|
|
and certain women who had been healed of evil
spirits and infirmities: Mary that was called Magdalene, from whom seven demons
had gone out, |
| |
|
|
|
Luke 8:3
|
|
and Joanna the wife of Chuzas Herod's steward,
and Susanna, and many others, who ministered unto them of their substance. |
| |
|
|
|
Luke 8:4
|
|
And
when a great multitude came together, and they of every city resorted unto him,
he spake by a parable: |
| |
|
|
|
Luke 8:5
|
|
The sower went forth to sow his seed: and as
he sowed, some fell by the way side; and it was trodden under foot, and the birds
of the heaven devoured it. |
| |
|
|
|
Luke 8:6
|
|
And other fell on the rock; and as soon as it
grew, it withered away, because it had no moisture. |
| |
|
|
|
Luke 8:7
|
|
And other fell amidst the thorns; and the thorns
grew with it, and choked it. |
|
|
|
|
Luke 8:8
|
|
And other fell into the good ground, and grew,
and brought forth fruit a hundredfold. As he said these things, he cried, He that
hath ears to hear, let him hear. |
|
|
|
|
Luke 8:9
|
|
And his disciples asked him what this parable
might be. |
|
|
|
|
Luke 8:10
|
|
And he said, Unto you it is given to know the
mysteries of the kingdom of God: but to the rest in parables; that seeing they
may not see, and hearing they may not understand. |
|
|
|
|
Luke 8:11
|
|
Now the parable is this: The seed is the word
of God. |
|
|
|
|
Luke 8:12
|
|
And those by the way side are they that have
heard; then cometh the devil, and taketh away the word from their heart, that
they may not believe and be saved. |
|
|
|
|
Luke 8:13
|
|
And those on the rock are they who, when they
have heard, receive the word with joy; and these have no root, who for a while
believe, and in time of temptation fall away. |
|
|
|
|
Luke 8:14
|
|
And that which fell among the thorns, these
are they that have heard, and as they go on their way they are choked with cares
and riches and pleasures of this life, and bring no fruit to perfection. |
|
|
|
|
Luke 8:15
|
|
And that in the good ground, these are such
as in an honest and good heart, having heard the word, hold it fast, and bring
forth fruit with patience. |
|
|
|
|
Luke 8:16
|
|
And no man, when he hath lighted a lamp, covereth
it with a vessel, or putteth it under a bed; but putteth it on a stand, that they
that enter in may see the light. |
|
|
|
|
Luke 8:17
|
|
For nothing is hid, that shall not be made manifest;
nor anything secret, that shall not be known and come to light. |
|
|
|
|
Luke 8:18
|
|
Take heed therefore how ye hear: for whosoever
hath, to him shall be given; and whosoever hath not, from him shall be taken away
even that which he thinketh he hath. |
|
|
|
|
Luke 8:19
|
|
And there came to him his mother and brethren,
and they could not come at him for the crowd. |
| |
|
|
|
Luke 8:20
|
|
And it was told him, Thy mother and thy brethren
stand without, desiring to see thee. |
| |
|
|
|
Luke 8:21
|
|
But he answered and said unto them, My mother
and my brethren are these that hear the word of God, and do it. |
|
|
|
|
|
Luke 8:22
|
|
Now it came to pass on one of those days, that
he entered into a boat, himself and his disciples; and he said unto them, Let
us go over unto the other side of the lake: and they launched forth. |
|
|
|
|
|
Luke 8:23
|
|
But as they sailed he fell asleep: and there
came down a storm of wind on the lake; and they were filling with water, and were
in jeopardy. |
|
|
|
|
|
Luke 8:24
|
|
And they came to him, and awoke him, saying,
Master, master, we perish. And he awoke, and rebuked the wind and the raging of
the water: and they ceased, and there was a calm. |
|
|
|
|
|
Luke 8:25
|
|
And he said unto them, Where is your faith?
And being afraid they marvelled, saying one to another, Who then is this, that
he commandeth even the winds and the water, and they obey him? |
|
|
|
|
|
Luke 8:26
|
|
And they arrived at the country of the Gerasenes,
which is over against Galilee. |
|
|
|
|
|
Luke 8:27
|
|
And when he was come forth upon the land, there
met him a certain man out of the city, who had demons; and for a long time he
had worn no clothes, and abode not in any house, but in the tombs. |
|
|
|
|
|
Luke 8:28
|
|
And when he saw Jesus, he cried out, and fell
down before him, and with a loud voice said, What have I to do with thee, Jesus,
thou Son of the Most High God? I beseech thee, torment me not. |
|
|
|
|
|
Luke 8:29
|
|
For he was commanding the unclean spirit to
come out from the man. For oftentimes it had seized him: and he was kept under
guard, and bound with chains and fetters; and breaking the bands asunder, he was
driven of the demon into the deserts. |
|
|
|
|
|
Luke 8:30
|
|
And Jesus asked him, What is thy name? And
he said, Legion; for many demons were entered into him. |
|
|
|
|
|
Luke 8:31
|
|
And they entreated him that he would not command
them to depart into the abyss. |
|
|
|
|
|
Luke 8:32
|
|
Now there was there a herd of many swine feeding
on the mountain: and they entreated him that he would give them leave to enter
into them. And he gave them leave. |
|
|
|
|
|
Luke 8:33
|
|
And the demons came out from the man, and entered
into the swine: and the herd rushed down the steep into the lake, and were drowned.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Luke 8:34
|
|
And when they that fed them saw what had come
to pass, they fled, and told it in the city and in the country. |
|
|
|
|
|
Luke 8:35
|
|
And they went out to see what had come to pass;
and they came to Jesus, and found the man, from whom the demons were gone out,
sitting, clothed and in his right mind, at the feet of Jesus: and they were afraid.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Luke 8:36
|
|
And they that saw it told them how he that was
possessed with demons was made whole. |
|
|
|
|
|
Luke 8:37
|
|
And all the people of the country of the Gerasenes
round about asked him to depart from them, for they were holden with great fear:
and he entered into a boat, and returned. |
|
|
|
|
|
Luke 8:38
|
|
But the man from whom the demons were gone out
prayed him that he might be with him: but he sent him away, saying, |
|
|
|
|
|
Luke 8:39
|
|
Return to thy house, and declare how great things
God hath done for thee. And he went his way, publishing throughout the whole city
how great things Jesus had done for him. |
|
|
|
|
|
Luke 8:40
|
|
And as Jesus returned, the multitude welcomed
him; for they were all waiting for him. |
|
|
|
|
|
Luke 8:41
|
|
And behold, there came a man named Jairus, and
he was a ruler of the synagogue: and he fell down at Jesus' feet, and besought
him to come into his house; |
|
|
|
|
|
Luke 8:42
|
|
for he had an only daughter, about twelve years
of age, and she was dying. But as he went the multitudes thronged him. |
|
|
|
|
|
Luke 8:43
|
|
And a woman having an issue of blood twelve
years, who had spent all her living upon physicians, and could not be healed of
any, |
|
|
|
|
|
Luke 8:44
|
|
came behind him, and touched the border of his
garment: and immediately the issue of her blood stanched. |
|
|
|
|
|
Luke 8:45
|
|
And Jesus said, Who is it that touched me? And
when all denied, Peter said, and they that were with him, Master, the multitudes
press thee and crush thee. |
|
|
|
|
|
Luke 8:46
|
|
But Jesus said, Some one did touch me; for I
perceived that power had gone forth from me. |
|
|
|
|
|
Luke 8:47
|
|
And when the woman saw that she was not hid,
she came trembling, and falling down before him declared in the presence of all
the people for what cause she touched him, and how she was healed immediately.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Luke 8:48
|
|
And he said unto her, Daughter, thy faith hath
made thee whole; go in peace. |
|
|
|
|
|
Luke 8:49
|
|
While he yet spake, there cometh one from the
ruler of the synagogue's house, saying, Thy daughter is dead; trouble not the
Teacher. |
|
|
|
|
|
Luke 8:50
|
|
But Jesus hearing it, answered him, Fear not:
only believe, and she shall be made whole. |
|
|
|
|
|
Luke 8:51
|
|
And when he came to the house, he suffered not
any man to enter in with him, save Peter, and John, and James, and the father
of the maiden and her mother. |
|
|
|
|
|
Luke 8:52
|
|
And all were weeping, and bewailing her: but
he said, Weep not; for she is not dead, but sleepeth. |
|
|
|
|
|
Luke 8:53
|
|
And they laughed him to scorn, knowing that
she was dead. |
|
|
|
|
|
Luke 8:54
|
|
But he, taking her by the hand, called, saying,
Maiden, arise. |
|
|
|
|
|
Luke 8:55
|
|
And her spirit returned, and she rose up immediately:
and he commanded that something be given her to eat. |
|
|
|
|
|
Luke 8:56
|
|
And her parents were amazed: but he charged
them to tell no man what had been done. |
