Luke 8
1 And it came to pass afterward, that he journeyed through cities and villages, preaching and publishing the glad tidings of the kingdom of God; and the twelve were with him,

4 And a great multitude collecting together, and people from the cities going out to him, he spoke by a parable:

5 A sower went forth to sow his seed; and as he sowed, some seeds fell by the way-side; and they were trodden down, and the birds of the air devoured them.

6 And others fell upon rocky ground; and when they had sprung up they withered away, because they had no moisture.

7 And others fell among thorns; and the thorns sprung up with them, and choked them.

8 And others fell upon good ground, and sprung up, and bore fruit, a hundred-fold. While saying these things, he cried aloud, He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.

9 And his disciples asked him what this parable meant.

10 And he said, To you it hath been given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of God; but to others [[these things are spoken]] in parables; that while seeing they may not see, and while hearing they may not understand.

11 Now the meaning of the parable is this. The seed is the word of God.

12 Those by the way-side are they that hear; then cometh the Devil and taketh away the word from their heart, that they may not believe and be saved.

13 Those on the rocky ground are they who, when they hear, receive the word with joy; and these have no root; and for a while they believe, and in time of temptation fall away.

14 And those seeds which fell among the thorns, these are they who, when they have heard, go away and are choked with the cares and riches and pleasures of life, and bring no fruit to perfection.

15 But the seeds on the good ground, these are they who in an honest and good heart, when they have heard the word, hold it fast, and bear fruit with constancy.

16 And no one having lighted a lamp, covereth it with a vessel, or putteth it under a bed; but setteth it on a lampstand, that those who come in may see the light.

22 Now it came to pass on a certain day, that he went into a boat with his disciples, and said to them, Let us go over to the other side of the lake; and they put off.

24 And they came and awoke him, saying, Master, master, we are perishing! And he rose, and rebuked the wind, and the surging of the water; and they ceased, and there was a calm.

29 For he was about to command the unclean spirit to come out of the man; for it had possessed him for a long time, and he had been kept bound and secured with chains and fetters; and bursting the bands, he had been driven by the demon into the wilderness.

47 And the woman, seeing that she was discovered, came trembling, and falling down before him declared before all the people for what cause she had touched him, and how she was cured immediately.

48 And he said to her, Daughter, thy faith hath made thee well; go in peace.

49 While he was yet speaking, there cometh one from the house of the ruler of the synagogue, saying, Thy daughter is dead; trouble not the Teacher any further.

50 But Jesus hearing this, answered him, Fear not; only believe, and she will be made well.

51 And going into the house, he suffered no one to go in with him but Peter and John and James, and the father of the maiden, and the mother.

52 And all were weeping, and lamenting for her. But he said, Weep not; she is not dead, but sleeping.

53 And they laughed him to scorn, knowing that she was dead.

54 But he took hold of her hand, and called aloud, saying, Maiden, arise!

55 And her spirit returned, and she immediately arose. And he ordered food to be given to her.

56 And her parents were amazed. But he charged them to tell no one what had been done.
