\subsection{Luke 8}
|
|
\subsubsection{Jesus's Ministry and the Help of Women}
|
|
\VS{1} And it came to pass afterwards he also was traveling through according to
|
|
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, Maria 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 village
|
|
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 grew, 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 grew 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 of God.
|
|
\VS{12} Now that by the road are those hearing, then comes the
|
|
devil and takes the word from their hearts, in order that not having
|
|
believed 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 ``seems to have will be taken . .
|
|
.''} from him.
|
|
|
|
\subsubsection{Jesus'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 faith? 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 [a] demon, and for a long time did not wear [a] garment, and stayed not in
|
|
[a] house but among the graves.
|
|
\VS{28} So seeing Jesus, having cried out he
|
|
fell before him and with [a] great voice said: What [is] to me and to
|
|
you\footnote{i.e. What do we have in common}, Jesus 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 is for a long time 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 Jesus 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.
|
|
\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 Jesus, and found sitting the man from whom the demons came out clothed
|
|
and of sound mind by Jesus 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 Jesus had done for
|
|
him.
|
|
|
|
\subsubsection{Restoration and Healing}
|
|
\VS{40} Now upon Jesus's return the crowd welcomed him, for they had been
|
|
expecting him.
|
|
\VS{41} And behold there came [a] man by name Jarius, and this
|
|
chief of the synagogue was being present, and falling by Jesus feet he
|
|
called upon him to enter into his house,
|
|
\VS{42} for his only-begotten\fnMonogenes{} daughter was
|
|
to him [about] twelve years 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'' \hesychian \koine W\sinaiticus{}; omit: \papyrus{75}B }, was not strong, being healed by
|
|
nothing,
|
|
\VS{44} having come from behind, grasped the hem of his robe, and
|
|
immediately the flow of her blood stopped.
|
|
\VS{45} And Jesus said: Who [is ]the
|
|
[one] having grasped me? But all denying it, Peter said: Master, the crowds come
|
|
together and press upon us.
|
|
\VS{46} But Jesus 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 faith 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 Jesus heard he answered to
|
|
him: Be not fearing, only believe, 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 Peter and
|
|
John and James, 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.
|
