English Standard Version Help
8Soon afterward he went on through cities and villages, proclaiming and bringing the good news of the kingdom of God. And the twelve were with him,G2532G1096G1722G2517G2532G846G1353G2596G4172G2532G2968G2784G2532G2097G932G2316G2532G1427G4862G846 2and also some women who had been healed of evil spirits and infirmities: Mary, called Magdalene, from whom seven demons had gone out,G2532G5100G1135G3739G2258G2323G575G4190G4151G2532G769G3137G2564G3094G575G3739G1831G2033G1140 3and Joanna, the wife of Chuza, Herod's household manager, and Susanna, and many others, who provided for them out of their means.G2532G2489G1135G5529G2264G2012G2532G4677G2532G4183G2087G3748G1247G846G575G846G5224 4And when a great crowd was gathering and people from town after town came to him, he said in a parable:G1161G4183G3793G4896G2532G1975G4314G846G2596G4172G2036G1223G3850 5"A sower went out to sow his seed. And as he sowed, some fell along the path and was trampled underfoot, and the birds of the air devoured it.G4687G1831G4687G846G4703G2532G1722G846G4687G3739G3303G4098G3844G3598G2532G2662G2532G4071G3772G2719G846 6And some fell on the rock, and as it grew up, it withered away, because it had no moisture.G2532G2087G4098G1909G4073G2532G5453G3583G1223G3361G2192G2429 7And some fell among thorns, and the thorns grew up with it and choked it.G2532G2087G4098G1722G3319G173G2532G173G4855G638G1970G846 8And some fell into good soil and grew and yielded a hundredfold." As he said these things, he called out, "He who has ears to hear, let him hear."G2532G2087G4098G1909G18G1093G2532G5453G4160G2590G1542G3004G5023G5455G2192G3775G191G191 9And when his disciples asked him what this parable meant,G1161G846G3101G1905G846G3004G5101G1498G3778G3850G1498 10he said, "To you it has been given to know the secrets of the kingdom of God, but for others they are in parables, so that 'seeing they may not see, and hearing they may not understand.'G1161G2036G5213G1325G1097G3466G932G2316G1161G3062G1722G3850G2443G991G991G3361G991G2532G191G4920G3361G4920 11Now the parable is this: The seed is the word of God.G1161G3850G2076G3778G4703G2076G3056G2316 12The ones along the path are those who have heard; then the devil comes and takes away the word from their hearts, so that they may not believe and be saved.G1161G3844G3598G1526G191G1534G2064G1228G2532G142G3056G575G846G2588G3363G4100G4982 13And the ones on the rock are those who, when they hear the word, receive it with joy. But these have no root; they believe for a while, and in time of testing fall away.G1161G1909G4073G3739G3752G191G1209G3056G3326G5479G2532G3778G2192G3756G4491G3739G4314G2540G4100G2532G1722G2540G3986G868 14And as for what fell among the thorns, they are those who hear, but as they go on their way they are choked by the cares and riches and pleasures of life, and their fruit does not mature.G1161G4098G1519G173G1526G3778G191G4198G2532G4846G5259G3308G2532G4149G2532G2237G979G2532G5052G3756G5052 15As for that in the good soil, they are those who, hearing the word, hold it fast in an honest and good heart, and bear fruit with patience.G1161G1722G2570G1093G1526G3778G3748G1722G2570G2532G18G2588G191G3056G2722G2532G2592G1722G5281 16"No one after lighting a lamp covers it with a jar or puts it under a bed, but puts it on a stand, so that those who enter may see the light.G1161G3762G681G3088G2572G846G4632G2228G5087G5270G2825G235G2007G1909G3087G2443G1531G991G5457 17For nothing is hidden that will not be made manifest, nor is anything secret that will not be known and come to light.G1063G3756G2076G2927G3739G1096G3756G1096G5318G3761G614G3739G1097G3756G1097G2532G2064G1519G5318 18Take care then how you hear, for to the one who has, more will be given, and from the one who has not, even what he thinks that he has will be taken away."G991G3767G4459G191G1063G3739G302G2192G846G1325G2532G3739G302G2192G3361G575G846G142G2532G3739G1380G2192 19Then his mother and his brothers came to him, but they could not reach him because of the crowd.G1161G3854G4314G846G3384G2532G846G80G2532G1410G3756G4940G846G1223G3793 20And he was told, "Your mother and your brothers are standing outside, desiring to see you."G2532G518G846G3004G4675G3384G2532G4675G80G2476G1854G2309G1492G4571 21But he answered them, "My mother and my brothers are those who hear the word of God and do it."G1161G611G2036G4314G846G3450G3384G2532G3450G80G1526G3778G3588G191G3056G2316G2532G4160G846 22One day he got into a boat with his disciples, and he said to them, "Let us go across to the other side of the lake." So they set out,G2532G1096G1722G3391G2250G2532G846G1684G1519G4143G2532G846G3101G2532G2036G4314G846G1330G1519G4008G3041G2532G321 23and as they sailed he fell asleep. And a windstorm came down on the lake, and they were filling with water and were in danger.G1161G846G4126G879G2532G2597G2978G417G1519G3041G2532G4845G2532G2793 24And they went and woke him, saying, "Master, Master, we are perishing!" And he awoke and rebuked the wind and the raging waves, and they ceased, and there was a calm.G1161G4334G1326G846G3004G1988G1988G622G1161G1453G2008G417G2532G2830G5204G2532G3973G2532G1096G1055 25He said to them, "Where is your faith?" And they were afraid, and they marveled, saying to one another, "Who then is this, that he commands even winds and water, and they obey him?"G1161G2036G846G4226G2076G5216G4102G1161G5399G2296G3004G4314G240G5101G686G2076G3778G3754G2004G2532G417G2532G5204G2532G5219G846 26Then they sailed to the country of the Gerasenes, which is opposite Galilee.G2532G2668G1519G5561G1046G3748G2076G495G1056 27When Jesus had stepped out on land, there met him a man from the city who had demons. For a long time he had worn no clothes, and he had not lived in a house but among the tombs.G1161G846G1831G1909G1093G5221G846G1537G4172G5100G435G3739G2192G1140G1537G2425G5550G2532G1737G3756G2440G2532G3756G3306G1722G3614G235G1722G3418 28When he saw Jesus, he cried out and fell down before him and said with a loud voice, "What have you to do with me, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I beg you, do not torment me."G1161G1492G2424G349G2532G4363G846G2532G3173G5456G2036G5101G1698G2532G4671G2424G5207G2316G5310G1189G4675G928G3165G3361 29For he had commanded the unclean spirit to come out of the man. (For many a time it had seized him. He was kept under guard and bound with chains and shackles, but he would break the bonds and be driven by the demon into the desert.)G1063G3853G3853G169G4151G1831G575G444G1063G4183G5550G4884G846G2532G5442G1196G254G2532G3976G2532G1284G1199G1643G5259G1142G1519G2048 30Jesus then asked him, "What is your name?" And he said, "Legion," for many demons had entered him.G1161G2424G1905G846G3004G5101G2076G4671G3686G1161G2036G3003G3754G4183G1140G1525G1519G846 31And they begged him not to command them to depart into the abyss.G2532G3870G3870G846G3363G2004G3363G2004G846G565G1519G12 32Now a large herd of pigs was feeding there on the hillside, and they begged him to let them enter these. So he gave them permission.G1161G2258G1563G34G2425G5519G1006G1722G3735G2532G3870G846G2443G2010G846G1525G1519G1565G2532G2010G846 33Then the demons came out of the man and entered the pigs, and the herd rushed down the steep bank into the lake and were drowned.G1161G1831G1140G575G444G1525G1519G5519G2532G34G3729G2596G2911G1519G3041G2532G638 34When the herdsmen saw what had happened, they fled and told it in the city and in the country.G1161G1006G1492G1096G5343G2532G565G518G1519G4172G2532G1519G68 35Then people went out to see what had happened, and they came to Jesus and found the man from whom the demons had gone, sitting at the feet of Jesus, clothed and in his right mind, and they were afraid.G1161G1831G1492G1096G2532G2064G4314G2424G2532G2147G444G575G3739G1140G1831G2521G3844G4228G2424G2439G2532G4993G2532G5399 36And those who had seen it told them how the demon-possessed man had been healed.G1161G2532G1492G518G846G4459G1139G4982 37Then all the people of the surrounding country of the Gerasenes asked him to depart from them, for they were seized with great fear. So he got into the boat and returned.G2532G537G4128G4066G1046G4066G2065G846G565G575G846G3754G4912G3173G5401G1161G846G1684G1519G4143G5290 38The man from whom the demons had gone begged that he might be with him, but Jesus sent him away, saying,G1161G435G575G3739G1140G1831G1189G846G1511G4862G846G1161G2424G630G846G630G3004 39"Return to your home, and declare how much God has done for you." And he went away, proclaiming throughout the whole city how much Jesus had done for him.G5290G1519G4675G3624G2532G1334G3745G2316G4160G4671G2532G565G2784G2596G3650G4172G3745G2424G4160G846 40Now when Jesus returned, the crowd welcomed him, for they were all waiting for him.G1161G1096G1722G2424G5290G3793G588G846G1063G2258G3956G4328G846 41And there came a man named Jairus, who was a ruler of the synagogue. And falling at Jesus' feet, he implored him to come to his house,G2532G2400G2064G435G3739G3686G2383G2532G846G5225G758G4864G2532G4098G3844G2424G4228G3870G846G1525G1519G846G3624 42for he had an only daughter, about twelve years of age, and she was dying. As Jesus went, the people pressed around him.G3754G846G2258G3439G2364G5613G1427G2094G2532G3778G846G599G1161G1722G846G5217G3793G4846G846 43And there was a woman who had had a discharge of blood for twelve years, and though she had spent all her living on physicians, she could not be healed by anyone.G2532G1135G5607G1722G4511G129G1427G575G2094G3748G4321G3650G979G1519G2395G3756G2480G2323G5259G3762 44She came up behind him and touched the fringe of his garment, and immediately her discharge of blood ceased.G4334G3693G680G2899G846G2440G2532G3916G846G4511G129G2476 45And Jesus said, "Who was it that touched me?" When all denied it, Peter said, "Master, the crowds surround you and are pressing in on you!"G2532G2424G2036G5101G680G3450G1161G3956G720G4074G2532G3326G846G2036G1988G3793G4912G4571G2532G598G2532G3004G5101G680G3450 46But Jesus said, "Someone touched me, for I perceive that power has gone out from me."G1161G2424G2036G5100G680G3450G1063G1473G1097G1411G1831G575G1700 47And when the woman saw that she was not hidden, she came trembling, and falling down before him declared in the presence of all the people why she had touched him, and how she had been immediately healed.G1161G1135G1492G3754G2990G3756G2990G2064G5141G2532G4363G846G518G846G1799G3956G2992G1223G3739G156G680G846G2532G5613G2390G3916 48And he said to her, "Daughter, your faith has made you well; go in peace."G1161G2036G846G2364G2293G4675G4102G4982G4571G4982G4198G1519G1515 49While he was still speaking, someone from the ruler's house came and said, "Your daughter is dead; do not trouble the Teacher any more."G846G2089G2980G2064G5100G3844G752G3004G846G3754G4675G2364G2348G4660G3361G1320 50But Jesus on hearing this answered him, "Do not fear; only believe, and she will be well."G1161G2424G191G611G846G3004G5399G3361G4100G3440G2532G4982 51And when he came to the house, he allowed no one to enter with him, except Peter and John and James, and the father and mother of the child.G1161G1525G1519G3614G863G3756G3762G1525G1508G4074G2532G2385G2532G2491G2532G3962G2532G3384G3816 52And all were weeping and mourning for her, but he said, "Do not weep, for she is not dead but sleeping."G1161G3956G2799G2532G2875G846G1161G2036G2799G3361G599G3756G599G235G2518 53And they laughed at him, knowing that she was dead.G2532G2606G846G2606G1492G3754G599 54But taking her by the hand he called, saying, "Child, arise."G1161G846G1544G3956G1854G2532G2902G846G5495G5455G3004G3816G1453 55And her spirit returned, and she got up at once. And he directed that something should be given her to eat.G2532G846G4151G1994G2532G450G3916G2532G1299G1325G846G5315 56And her parents were amazed, but he charged them to tell no one what had happened.G2532G846G1118G1839G1161G3853G846G2036G3367G1096
