Luke 8
1 Shortly after this He visited town after town, and village after village, proclaiming His Message and telling the Good News of the Kingdom of God. The Twelve were with Him,
et factum est deinceps et ipse iter faciebat per civitatem et castellum praedicans et evangelizans regnum Dei et duodecim cum illo
2 and certain women whom He had delivered from evil spirits and various diseases--Mary of Magdala, out of whom seven demons had come,
et mulieres aliquae quae erant curatae ab spiritibus malignis et infirmitatibus Maria quae vocatur Magdalene de qua daemonia septem exierant
3 and Joanna the wife of Chuza, Herod's steward, and Susanna, and many other women, all of whom contributed to the support of Jesus and His Apostles.
et Iohanna uxor Chuza procuratoris Herodis et Susanna et aliae multae quae ministrabant eis de facultatibus suis
4 And when a great crowd was assembling, and was receiving additions from one town after another, He spoke a parable to them.
cum autem turba plurima conveniret et de civitatibus properarent ad eum dixit per similitudinem
5 "The sower," He said, "goes out to sow his seed; and as he sows, some of the seed falls by the way-side, and is trodden upon, or the birds of the air come and peck it up.
exiit qui seminat seminare semen suum et dum seminat aliud cecidit secus viam et conculcatum est et volucres caeli comederunt illud
6 Another part drops upon the rock, and after growing up it withers away for want of moisture.
et aliud cecidit supra petram et natum aruit quia non habebat humorem
7 Another part falls among the thorns, and the thorns grow up with it and stifle it.
et aliud cecidit inter spinas et simul exortae spinae suffocaverunt illud
8 But some of the seed falls into good ground, and grows up and yields a return of a hundred for one." While thus speaking, He cried aloud and said, "Listen, every one who has ears to listen with!"
et aliud cecidit in terram bonam et ortum fecit fructum centuplum haec dicens clamabat qui habet aures audiendi audiat
9 The disciples proceeded to ask Him what this parable meant.
interrogabant autem eum discipuli eius quae esset haec parabola
10 "To you," He replied, "it is granted to know the secrets of the Kingdom of God; but all others are taught by parables, in order that they may see and yet not see, and may hear and yet not understand.
quibus ipse dixit vobis datum est nosse mysterium regni Dei ceteris autem in parabolis ut videntes non videant et audientes non intellegant
11 The meaning of the parable is as follows. The seed is God's Message.
est autem haec parabola semen est verbum Dei
12 Those by the way-side are those who have heard, and then the Devil comes and carries away the Message from their hearts, lest they should believe and be saved.
qui autem secus viam sunt qui audiunt deinde venit diabolus et tollit verbum de corde eorum ne credentes salvi fiant
13 Those on the rock are the people who on hearing the Message receive it joyfully; but they have no root: for a time they believe, but when trial comes they fall away.
nam qui supra petram qui cum audierint cum gaudio suscipiunt verbum et hii radices non habent qui ad tempus credunt et in tempore temptationis recedunt
14 That which fell among the thorns means those who have heard, but as they go on their way, the Message is stifled by the anxieties, wealth and gaieties of time, and they yield nothing in perfection.
quod autem in spinis cecidit hii sunt qui audierunt et a sollicitudinibus et divitiis et voluptatibus vitae euntes suffocantur et non referunt fructum
15 But as for that in the good ground, it means those who, having listened to the Message with open minds and in a right spirit, hold it fast, and patiently yield a return.
quod autem in bonam terram hii sunt qui in corde bono et optimo audientes verbum retinent et fructum adferunt in patientia
16 "When any one lights a lamp, he does not cover it with a vessel or hide it under a couch; he puts it on a lampstand, that people who enter the room may see the light.
nemo autem lucernam accendens operit eam vaso aut subtus lectum ponit sed supra candelabrum ponit ut intrantes videant lumen
17 There is nothing hidden, which shall not be openly seen; nor anything secret, which shall not be known and come into the light of day.
non enim est occultum quod non manifestetur nec absconditum quod non cognoscatur et in palam veniat
18 Be careful, therefore, how you hear; for whoever has anything, to him more shall be given, and whoever has nothing, even that which he thinks he has shall be taken away from him."
videte ergo quomodo auditis qui enim habet dabitur illi et quicumque non habet etiam quod putat se habere auferetur ab illo
19 Then came to Him His mother and His brothers, but could not get near Him for the crowd.
venerunt autem ad illum mater et fratres eius et non poterant adire ad eum prae turba
20 But He was told, "Your mother and brothers are standing on the edge of the crowd, and want to see you."
et nuntiatum est illi mater tua et fratres tui stant foris volentes te videre
21 "My mother and my brothers," He replied, "are these who hear God's Message and obey it."
qui respondens dixit ad eos mater mea et fratres mei hii sunt qui verbum Dei audiunt et faciunt
22 One day He went on board a boat--both He and his disciples; and He said to them, "Let us cross over to the other side of the Lake." So they set sail.
factum est autem in una dierum et ipse ascendit in naviculam et discipuli eius et ait ad illos transfretemus trans stagnum et ascenderunt
23 During the passage He fell asleep, and there came down a squall of wind on the Lake, so that the boat began to fill and they were in deadly peril.
navigantibus autem illis obdormiit et descendit procella venti in stagnum et conplebantur et periclitabantur
24 So they came and woke Him, crying, "Rabbi, Rabbi, we are drowning." Then He roused Himself and rebuked the wind and the surging of the water, and they ceased and there was a calm.
accedentes autem suscitaverunt eum dicentes praeceptor perimus at ille surgens increpavit ventum et tempestatem aquae et cessavit et facta est tranquillitas
25 "Where is your faith?" He asked them. But they were filled with terror and amazement, and said to one another, "Who then is this? for He gives orders both to wind and waves, and they obey Him."
dixit autem illis ubi est fides vestra qui timentes mirati sunt dicentes ad invicem quis putas hic est quia et ventis imperat et mari et oboediunt ei
26 Then they put in to shore in the country of the Gerasenes, which lies opposite to Galilee.
enavigaverunt autem ad regionem Gerasenorum quae est contra Galilaeam
27 Here, on landing, He was met by one of the townsmen who was possessed by demons--for a long time he had not put on any garment, nor did he live in a house, but in the tombs.
et cum egressus esset ad terram occurrit illi vir quidam qui habebat daemonium iam temporibus multis et vestimento non induebatur neque in domo manebat sed in monumentis
28 When he saw Jesus, he cried out and fell down before Him, and said in a loud voice, "What have you to do with me, Jesus, Son of God Most High? Do not torture me, I beseech you."
is ut vidit Iesum procidit ante illum et exclamans voce magna dixit quid mihi et tibi est Iesu Fili Dei altissimi obsecro te ne me torqueas
29 For already He had been commanding the foul spirit to come out of the man. For many a time it had seized and held him, and they had repeatedly put him in chains and fetters and kept guard over him, but he used to break the chains to pieces, and, impelled by the demon, to escape into the Desert.
praecipiebat enim spiritui inmundo ut exiret ab homine multis enim temporibus arripiebat illum et vinciebatur catenis et conpedibus custoditus et ruptis vinculis agebatur a daemonio in deserta
30 "What is your name?" Jesus asked him. "Legion," he replied--because a great number of demons had entered into him;
interrogavit autem illum Iesus dicens quod tibi nomen est at ille dixit Legio quia intraverunt daemonia multa in eum
et rogabant illum ne imperaret illis ut in abyssum irent (Abyssos g12)
32 Now there was a great herd of swine there feeding on the hill-side; and the demons begged Him to give them leave to go into them, and He gave them leave.
erat autem ibi grex porcorum multorum pascentium in monte et rogabant eum ut permitteret eos in illos ingredi et permisit illos
33 The demons came out of the man and left him, and entered into the swine; and the herd rushed violently over the cliff into the Lake and were drowned.
exierunt ergo daemonia ab homine et intraverunt in porcos et impetu abiit grex per praeceps in stagnum et suffocatus est
34 The swineherds, seeing what had happened, fled and reported it both in town and country;
quod ut viderunt factum qui pascebant fugerunt et nuntiaverunt in civitatem et in villas
35 whereupon the people came out to see what had happened. They came to Jesus, and they found the man from whom the demons had gone out sitting at the feet of Jesus, clothed and in his right mind; and they were terrified.
exierunt autem videre quod factum est et venerunt ad Iesum et invenerunt hominem sedentem a quo daemonia exierant vestitum ac sana mente ad pedes eius et timuerunt
36 And those who had seen it told them how the demoniac was cured.
nuntiaverunt autem illis et qui viderant quomodo sanus factus esset a Legione
37 Then the whole population of the Gerasenes and of the adjacent districts begged Him to depart from them; for their terror was great. So He went on board and returned.
et rogaverunt illum omnis multitudo regionis Gerasenorum ut discederet ab ipsis quia timore magno tenebantur ipse autem ascendens navem reversus est
38 But the man from whom the demons had gone out earnestly asked permission to go with Him; but He sent him away.
et rogabat illum vir a quo daemonia exierant ut cum eo esset dimisit autem eum Iesus dicens
39 "Return home," He said, "and tell there all that God has done for you." So he went and published through the whole town all that Jesus had done for him.
redi domum tuam et narra quanta tibi fecit Deus et abiit per universam civitatem praedicans quanta illi fecisset Iesus
40 Now when Jesus was returning, the people gave Him a warm welcome; for they had all been looking out for Him.
factum est autem cum redisset Iesus excepit illum turba erant enim omnes expectantes eum
41 Just then there came a man named Jair, a Warden of the Synagogue, who threw himself at the feet of Jesus, and entreated Him to come to his house;
et ecce venit vir cui nomen Iairus et ipse princeps synagogae erat et cecidit ad pedes Iesu rogans eum ut intraret in domum eius
42 for he had an only daughter, about twelve years old, and she was dying. And as He went, the dense throng crowded on Him.
quia filia unica erat illi fere annorum duodecim et haec moriebatur et contigit dum iret a turbis conprimebatur
43 And a woman who for twelve years had been afflicted with haemorrhage--and had spent on doctors all she had, but none of them had been able to cure her--
et mulier quaedam erat in fluxu sanguinis ab annis duodecim quae in medicos erogaverat omnem substantiam suam nec ab ullo potuit curari
44 came close behind Him and touched the tassel of His robe; and instantly her flow of blood stopped.
accessit retro et tetigit fimbriam vestimenti eius et confestim stetit fluxus sanguinis eius
45 "Who is it touched me?" Jesus asked. And when all denied having done so, Peter and the rest said, "Rabbi, the crowds are hemming you in and pressing on you."
et ait Iesus quis est qui me tetigit negantibus autem omnibus dixit Petrus et qui cum illo erant praeceptor turbae te conprimunt et adfligunt et dicis quis me tetigit
46 "Some one has touched me," Jesus replied, "for I feel that power has gone out from me."
et dixit Iesus tetigit me aliquis nam ego novi virtutem de me exisse
47 Then the woman, perceiving that she had not escaped notice, came trembling, and throwing herself down at His feet she stated before all the people the reason why she had touched Him and how she was instantly cured.
videns autem mulier quia non latuit tremens venit et procidit ante pedes illius et ob quam causam tetigerit eum indicavit coram omni populo et quemadmodum confestim sanata sit
48 "Daughter," said He, "your faith has cured you; go, and be at peace."
at ipse dixit illi filia fides tua te salvam fecit vade in pace
49 While He was still speaking, some one came to the Warden of the Synagogue from his house and said, "Your daughter is dead; trouble the Rabbi no further."
adhuc illo loquente venit a principe synagogae dicens ei quia mortua est filia tua noli vexare illum
50 Jesus heard the words and said to him, "Have no fear. Only believe, and she shall be restored to life."
Iesus autem audito hoc verbo respondit patri puellae noli timere crede tantum et salva erit
51 So He came to the house, but allowed no one to go in with Him but Peter and John and James and the girl's father and mother.
et cum venisset domum non permisit intrare secum quemquam nisi Petrum et Iohannem et Iacobum et patrem et matrem puellae
52 The people were all weeping aloud and beating their breasts for her; but He said, "Leave off wailing; for she is not dead, but asleep."
flebant autem omnes et plangebant illam at ille dixit nolite flere non est mortua sed dormit
53 And they jeered at Him, knowing that she was dead.
et deridebant eum scientes quia mortua esset
54 He, however, took her by the hand and called aloud, "Child, awake!"
ipse autem tenens manum eius clamavit dicens puella surge
55 And her spirit returned, and instantly she stood up; and He directed them to give her some food.
et reversus est spiritus eius et surrexit continuo et iussit illi dari manducare
56 Her parents were astounded; but He forbad them to mention the matter to any one.
et stupuerunt parentes eius quibus praecepit ne alicui dicerent quod factum erat
