\subsection{Luke 8}
\subsubsection{\Iesous's Ministry and the Help of Women}
\VS{1} And it came to pass afterwards he also was traveling through
city and town preaching and proclaiming the Kingdom of God,
and the twelve with him,
\VS{2} and certain women who were healed from wicked\fnPoneros{} spirits and sicknesses,
Mary the [one] being called Magdalene, from whom seven demons had come out,
\VS{3} and Joanna [the] wife of Chouze steward of \Herod, and Sousanna,
and many others, who were serving them out of their possessions.
\subsubsection{The Parable of the Sower}
\VS{4} Now when [a] great crowd came together and those from every city journeyed to him,
he said by parable:
\VS{5} The sower went out to sow his seed,
and in sowing it some fell by the road and was trampled,
and the birds of heaven ate it.
\VS{6} And other fell on the rocks, and having grown, was withered because of not having moisture.
\VS{7} And other fell in the midst of thorn bushes,
and the thorn bushes growing with it choked it.
\VS{8} And other fell on the good soil, and having grown, produced fruit hundredfold.
Saying these [things] he said: The [one] having ears to be hearing let\fnImperative{} him be hearing.
\VS{9} Now his disciples were asking him what this parable might be.
\VS{10} But he said: To you it is given to know the mysteries of the Kingdom of God,
but to the rest in parables,
in order that looking they may not look and hearing they may not understand.
\VS{11} Now this is the parable.
The seed is the word\fnLogos{} of God.
\VS{12} Now that by the road are those hearing,
then comes the devil and takes the word\fnLogos{} from their hearts,
in order that not having trusted they [not] be saved.
\VS{13} And that on the rocks are they who when they hear receive the word with joy,
and these do not have root,
who for [a] time\fnKairos{} believe and in time\fnKairos{} of trial fall away,
\VS{14} so that falling in the thorn bushes, these are those hearing,
and proceeding under the cares and riches and pleasures of life
they are choked and do not bear\footnote{bear fruit to maturity} fruit.
\VS{15} But that in the good soil, these are those in [the] good and sound heart
who having heard the word hold fast and bear fruit in patience.
\subsubsection{Showing the Light}
\VS{16} But no one having lit [a] lamp hides it in [a] vessel or places it under [a] basket,
but places it on [a] lampstand,
that those coming in may see the light.
\VS{17} For nothing is hidden that will not become manifest,
nor hidden that will \negd{not} be made known and shall come into manifestation.
\VS{18} Be looking therefore how you hear; for whoever has,
it will be given to him; and whoever has not,
even what he supposes he has will be taken%
\footnote{or ``what he seems to have will be taken\ldots''}
from him.
\subsubsection{\Iesous's True Family}
\VS{19} Now his mother and brothers came to him,
and were unable to meet him because of the crowd.
\VS{20} So it was reported to him,
Your mother and your brothers stand outside wishing to see you.
\VS{21} But answering he said to them:
My mother and my brothers are those hearing and doing the word of God.
\subsubsection{Stilling a Storm}
\VS{22} Now it came to pass one day he and his disciples embarked in [a] boat.
And he said to them: Let us proceed through to the other side of the lake,
and they put out.
\VS{23} Now while they were sailing he fell asleep.
And there came down [a] storm of wind on the lake,
and they were being filled [with water] and were being in danger.
\VS{24} So coming to him they aroused him saying:
Master, master, we are perishing.
But having arisen he rebuked the wind and the rough water,
and they ceased, and it became calm.
\VS{25} But he said to them:
Where [is] your trust\fnPistis{}?
But having been made afraid, they were astonished,
saying to one another:
Who therefore is this, that he rebukes the winds and the water, and they obey him?
\VS{26} And they sailed down to the land of Gerasene, which is opposite of \Galilee.
\subsubsection{Healing of a Demoniac}
\VS{27} So when he came out on the land [a] certain man from the city met him having demons,
and for a long time did not wear [a] garment, and stayed not in [a] house but among the graves.
\VS{28} So seeing \Iesous, having cried out he fell before him and with [a] great voice said:
What [is] to me and to you\footnote{That is, ``What do we have in common?''},
\Iesous son of the most high God?
I beg you, do not torture me.
\VS{29} For he commanded the unclean spirit to come out from the man.
For he had for a long time been seized, and he was bound with chains and fetters,
being guarded, and breaking the bonds he was driven by the demon into the wilderness.
\VS{30} So \Iesous asked him,
What is your name?
So he said: Legion, for many demons entered into him.
\VS{31} And he was calling upon him that he not command them to depart into the abyss\footnote{or ``underworld''}.
\VS{32} Now there was there [a] sizable herd of pigs grazing on the mountain,
and he called upon him that he permit them to enter into them.
And he commanded them [thus].
\VS{33} So the demons having gone out from the man they entered into the pigs,
and the herd rushed headlong down the bank into the lake and drowned.
\VS{34} Now when those grazing [them] saw that which came to pass they fled
and reported in the city and in the country.
\VS{35} So they came out to see what came to pass,
and came to \Iesous, and found sitting the man from whom the demons came out clothed
and of sound mind by \Iesous' feet, and they were made afraid.
\VS{36} And those who saw reported to them how he had saved the demon possessed [one].
\VS{37} And all the multitude from the surrounding regions asked him to depart from them,
for they were taken with great fear, so having embarked into the boat he returned.
\VS{38} But the man from whom the demons were come out was begging of him to be with him,
but he sent him away saying:
\VS{39} Be returning to your house, and be relating how much God has done for you.
And he departed by every city preaching how much \Iesous had done for him.
\subsubsection{Restoration and Healing}
\VS{40} Now upon \Iesous's return the crowd welcomed him, for they had been expecting him.
\VS{41} And behold there came [a] man by name Iairos,
and this chief of the synagogue was being present,
and falling by \Iesous' feet he called upon him to enter into his house,
\VS{42} for [he had an] only-begotten\fnMonogenes{} daughter, [about] twelve years [old], and she was dying.
Now when he was withdrawing the crowd was pressing him.
\VS{43} And [a] woman being in flow of blood for twelve years,
and having spent all her living%
\footnote{``having spent all her living'' \koine W; omit: \hesychian{}\sinaiticus{} \papyrus{75}B },
on physicians, not strong, being healed by no one,
\VS{44} having come from behind, grasped the hem of his robe,
and immediately the flow of her blood stopped.
\VS{45} And \Iesous said: Who [is] the [one] having grasped me?
But all denying it, \Petros said: Master, the crowds come together and press upon us.
\VS{46} But \Iesous said: Who grasped me? For I know [that] power has gone out from me.
\VS{47} Now the woman having known that she did not escape notice,
trembling came and falling before him reported before all the people
for what cause she had grasped him, and how she was immediately healed.
\VS{48} But he said to her: Daughter, your trust\fnPistis{} has saved you. Be going in peace.
\VS{49} While he was yet speaking someone came by the chief of the synagogue saying that:
Your daughter has died. Be no longer troubling the teacher.
\VS{50} But when \Iesous heard he answered to him:
Be not fearing, only trust, and she will be saved.
\VS{51} So when he came into the house he did not permit any to go in with him
except \Petros and \John and \Jacob\fnJacob{}, and the father and mother of the child.
\VS{52} And all were weeping and mourning her.
So he said: Be not weeping, she has not died but sleeps.
\VS{53} And they were mocking him, knowing that she had died.
\VS{54} But having laid hold of her hand he spoke to her saying:
Child, be arising.
\VS{55} And her spirit returned, and immediately she stood up,
and he commanded she be given [something] to eat.
\VS{56} But he directed them to say nothing [concerning] what came to pass.
