Young's Literal Translation
Soon
afterward
, Jesus
traveled
from
one
town
and village to
another
, preaching and proclaiming the
good news of the kingdom
of God .
The Twelve were
with Him,
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,
as
well
as
some
women who had
been
healed of evil spirits and infirmities :
Mary called Magdalene, from whom seven demons had gone out
,
and
certain
women ,
who were
healed of evil spirits and infirmities ,
Mary who
is
called Magdalene, from whom seven demons had gone forth
,
Joanna the
wife of Herod’s
household
manager
Chuza, Susanna, and many others .
These
women
were ministering to them
out
of
their own
means
.
and
Joanna wife of Chuza, steward
of
Herod,
and
Susanna, and many others ,
who
were ministering to him
from
their substance
.
While
a large
crowd
was
gathering
and people
were coming to
Jesus
from
town
after
town
, He told
them
this
parable
:
And
a great
multitude
having
gathered,
and those
who
from
city
and
city
were coming unto
him
, he spake
by
a
simile
:
“A
farmer
went out
to sow his seed .
And as
he
was
sowing ,
some seed
fell along
the path
, where
it was trampled
, and the birds
of the air
devoured
it.
`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.
Some
fell on
rocky
ground
, and when
it
came
up, the
seedlings
withered
because
they
had
no
moisture.
`And
other
fell upon
the
rock
, and having
sprung
up, it
did
wither,
through
not
having
moisture.
Other seed
fell among
thorns, which
grew
up with it and
choked
the
seedlings
.
`And
other fell amidst
the
thorns, and
the
thorns
having
sprung
up with it ,
did
choke
it
.
Still
other seed
fell on
good soil
, where
it
sprang
up
and produced
a
crop—a
hundredfold
. ”
As
Jesus
said
this
, He called
out
, “
He who
has
ears to hear ,
let him hear. ”
`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. '
Then
His disciples asked
Him what this parable
meant.
And
his disciples were
questioning
him ,
saying,
`
What may
this simile
be?'
He replied
, “The
knowledge
of
the mysteries
of the kingdom
of God has
been
given
to
you
, but
to others
I
speak
in parables,
so
that ,
‘though
seeing ,
they may not see ;
though
hearing
, they may not understand. ’
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.
Now
this is the meaning
of
the
parable
: The seed is the word of God .
`And
this is the simile
: The seed is the word of God ,
The
seeds
along
the path
are those who
hear
, but
the devil comes
and takes
away
the word from their hearts
, so
that
they may not
believe
and
be saved.
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.
The
seeds
on
rocky
ground
are
those who hear the
word
and
receive
it
with joy, but
they
have no root .
They
believe
for a season
, but
in the
time of testing,
they
fall away.
`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.
The
seeds
that fell among
the thorns are those
who hear
, but
as
they
go
on
their
way
, they
are
choked
by
the
worries
, riches, and pleasures of this
life, and their
fruit
does
not mature
.
`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
.
But
the seeds
on
good soil
are those
with
a
noble
and good heart, who
hear
the word, cling
to
it, and by
persevering
produce
a
crop
.
`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
.
No one lights
a lamp and
covers
it with a jar
or puts
it
under a bed.
Instead,
he
sets
it on
a stand, so
those who
enter
can
see the light .
`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 ,
For there
is
nothing hidden
that will
not be
disclosed
, and
nothing
concealed
that will
not be made
known and brought
to
light
.
for nothing is
secret,
that shall
not become
manifest
, nor
hid,
that shall
not be known ,
and become
manifest
.
Pay
attention
, therefore, to
how you
listen.
Whoever has
will
be given more
, but
whoever does
not have, even
what he thinks
he
has
will
be taken away
from him. ”
`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. '
Then
Jesus’
mother
and brothers
came to
see
Him, but
they were unable
to reach
Him because of the crowd.
And there
came unto
him his
mother
and
brethren
, and
they were not
able
to get
to
him because of the multitude,
He
was told, “Your
mother and brothers
are
standing
outside
, wanting
to see You.”
and
it
was told him
, saying,
`Thy
mother and thy
brethren
do
stand
without
, wishing
to see thee;'
But
He replied
, “
My mother and brothers
are those who hear
the word of God and carry
it
out
. ”
and
he answering
said
unto
them
, `
My mother and my
brethren!
they
are those who the word of God are
hearing,
and doing
. '
One
day
Jesus
said
to His disciples, “Let
us
cross
to the other side of the lake .”
So
He
got
into
a
boat
with
them
and set out.
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,
As they sailed,
He fell asleep, and a
windstorm
came down on
the lake, so
that
the
boat
was
being
swamped,
and they were in great
danger
.
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
.
The
disciples
went
and woke
Him, saying, “
Master, Master, we are
perishing!”
Then
Jesus
got
up
and rebuked the wind and the raging waters
, and they subsided
, and all
was
calm .
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 ,
“
Where is your faith? ”
He
asked.
Frightened
and amazed,
they asked
one another, “
Who is this ?
He
commands
even the winds and the water, and they obey Him !”
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 ?'
Then
they sailed to the region of the Gerasenes
, across
the
lake
from
Galilee .
And
they sailed down
to the region of the Gadarenes
, that
is
over-against
Galilee ,
When
Jesus
stepped
ashore,
He was
met by
a demon-possessed
man from
the town.
For a long time this
man
had
not worn
clothing
or
lived
in a house, but he
stayed
in the tombs .
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 ,
When
the
man
saw
Jesus, he
cried out and
fell down
before Him, shouting
in
a loud voice, “
What do
You
want
with
me, Jesus, Son of the
Most High God
? I beg
You
not to
torture
me! ”
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! '
For Jesus
had
commanded the unclean spirit to come out
of
the man .
Many times it had seized
him, and though
he was bound with chains and shackles
, he
had
broken
the
chains
and been
driven by the demon
into
solitary
places
.
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
.
“
What is your
name? ”
Jesus
asked.
“Legion,”
he replied
, because many demons had
gone
into him .
And
Jesus
questioned
him,
saying,
`
What is thy
name? '
and
he said
, `Legion,'
(
because many demons were
entered
into him ,)
And the
demons
kept
begging
Jesus
not to
order
them to go into
the Abyss .
and he
was
calling
on
him,
that
he
may
not command
them to go away
to
the abyss ,
There on
the
hillside
a large
herd of pigs
was
feeding .
So
the demons
begged
Jesus
to
let
them enter the
pigs
, and He gave
them permission.
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 ,
Then
the demons came
out
of
the man and
went
into the pigs
, and the herd rushed down the steep bank
into
the lake and was
drowned
.
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
.
When
those tending
the
pigs
saw
what had
happened
, they
ran
off
and reported
this
in
the town
and countryside.
And
those feeding
`them',
having
seen
what was
come
to
pass
, fled,
and having
gone,
told
`it'
to
the city,
and to
the
fields;
So
the
people
went
out
to see what had
happened.
They came to
Jesus and found the man whom the demons had left,
sitting
at
Jesus’
feet
, clothed and in
his
right mind;
and they were afraid .
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 ;
Meanwhile,
those who
had
seen it reported
how the demon-possessed
man
had
been
healed
.
and
those also
having
seen `
it ',
told
them
how the demoniac
was
saved
.
Then
all
the people
of the region of the Gerasenes
asked Jesus
to depart
from them, because great fear had
taken
hold
of
them.
So
He got
into the boat and
started
back.
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.
The man whom the demons had left
begged
to go
with Jesus .
But
He
sent him away, saying,
And
the man from
whom the demons had gone
forth
was
beseeching
of
him
to be
with him,
and
Jesus sent him away, saying,
“Return
home
and describe
how much
God has
done
for
you.”
So
the
man
went away and
proclaimed
all over
the town
how much
Jesus had
done
for
him.
`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.
When
Jesus returned
, the crowd
welcomed
Him, for they had
all been
waiting
for Him .
And
it
came
to
pass,
in
the
turning
back
of
Jesus, the multitude
received
him, for they were
all looking
for him ,
Just
then
a synagogue
leader
named
Jairus came
and fell
at Jesus’
feet .
He
begged
Him to come to his house ,
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 ;
because his
only daughter ,
who
was
about twelve, was dying. As
Jesus
went
with
him
, the crowds
pressed
around
Him,
because he
had
an
only daughter about twelve years
`old'
, and
she
was dying. And
in
his
going
away
, the multitudes
were
thronging
him,
including
a woman who
had
suffered
from
bleeding
for twelve years .
She
had
spent all
her
money
on physicians, but
no
one
was able to heal
her.
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,
She
came
up
behind Jesus
and
touched the fringe of His cloak
, and immediately
her bleeding
stopped
.
having
come
near
behind ,
touched the fringe of his garment
, and presently
the
issue
of
her blood
stood
.
“
Who touched Me? ”
Jesus
asked.
But
they
all denied
it.
“Master
, ”
said
Peter, “
the people
are
crowding
and pressing
against
You.”
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!'
But
Jesus declared
, “Someone
touched
Me, for I know
that
power has
gone out
from Me. ”
And
Jesus said
, `Some
one
did
touch
me, for I knew
power having
gone forth
from me. '
Then
the woman, seeing
that she could
not escape
notice
, came
trembling and fell
down
before Him .
In
the
presence
of
all
the
people
, she
explained
why
she had
touched Him and how she had
immediately
been
healed .
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;
“Daughter,”
said Jesus
, “your
faith has
healed
you.
Go
in
peace. ”
and
he
said to
her
, `Take
courage,
daughter,
thy
faith hath
saved
thee,
be
going
on
to
peace. '
While He was
still
speaking, someone
arrived
from the house
of the synagogue
leader.
“Your
daughter is
dead
, ”
he
told
Jairus.
“Do
not bother
the Teacher anymore.”
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 ;'
But
Jesus
overheard
them
and said
to
Jairus
, “Do
not
be afraid ;
just
believe, and she will
be healed
. ”
and Jesus
having
heard
, answered
him,
saying,
`
Be not
afraid ,
only
believe, and she shall
be saved
. '
When
He
entered
the house, He did
not
allow
anyone
to go in with
Him
except Peter, John,
James, and the child’s
father and mother .
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 ;
Meanwhile,
everyone
was
weeping and mourning
for her .
But
Jesus
said, “Stop
weeping;
she is
not dead
but asleep.”
and
they
were
all
weeping ,
and beating
themselves
for her ,
and
he
said, `Weep
not,
she did
not die,
but doth
sleep;
And they laughed
at
Him, knowing that she was
dead.
and they were
deriding
him, knowing that she did
die;
But
Jesus
took
her by
the
hand and
called out
, “
Child, get
up!”
and
he
having
put
all
forth
without,
and
having
taken
hold
of
her hand ,
called, saying,
`
Child, arise;'
Her spirit returned
, and at
once
she got
up.
And He directed that she
be given something
to eat .
and
her spirit came
back
, and she arose
presently,
and he directed that there
be given to her
to
eat ;
Her parents were astounded
, but Jesus
ordered
them not
to tell
anyone
what had
happened
.
and
her parents were amazed
, but he
charged
them to say
to
no
one
what was
come
to
pass
.
