Lucam 8
1 Et factum est deinceps, et ipse iter faciebat per civitates, et castella praedicans, et evangelizans regnum Dei: et duodecim cum illo,
It happened shortly afterwards that he began to go from town to town and village to village, preaching and telling the good news of the kingdom of God.
2 et mulieres aliquae, quae erant curatae a spiritibus malignis, et infirmatibus: Maria, quae vocatur Magdalene, de qua septem daemonia exierant,
The twelve were with him, and certain women whom he had delivered from evil spirits and various diseases. Mary of Magdala, out of whom seven demons have been driven,
3 et Ioanna uxor Chusae procuratoris Herodis, et Susanna, et aliae multae, quae ministrabant ei de facultatibus suis.
and Joanna, the wife of Chuza, Herod’s steward, and Susanna, and many other women, who used to minister to him out of their substance.
4 Cum autem turba plurima convenirent, et de civitatibus properarent ad eum, dixit per similitudinem:
As a great crowd was gathering, and men of town after town kept restoring to him, he spoke a parable to them.
5 Exiit qui seminat, seminare semen suum: et dum seminat, aliud cecidit secus viam, et conculcatum est, et volucres caeli comederunt illud.
"A sower went out to sow his seed, and as he sowed some fell by the wayside, and was trodden under foot, and the wild birds ate it up.
6 Et aliud cecidit supra petram: et natum aruit, quia non habebat humorem.
"Some other seed dropped on the rock, as soon as it grew it withered away, because it had no moisture.
7 Et aliud cecidit inter spinas, et simul exortae spinae suffocaverunt illud.
"Another part fell among the thorns; and the thorns grew with it and choked it.
8 Et aliud cecidit in terram bonam: et ortum fecit fructum centuplum. Haec dicens clamabat: Qui habet aures audiendi, audiat.
"But some fell on good soil, and grew up, and brought forth fruit, a hundredfold." When he said this, he called out, "Whoever has ears to hear with, let him listen."
9 Interrogabant autem eum discipuli eius, quae esset haec parabola.
Then his disciples began to interrupt him, saying, "What does this parable mean?"
10 Quibus ipse dixit: Vobis datum est nosse mysterium regni Dei, ceteris autem in parabolis: ut videntes non videant, et audientes non intelligant.
He answered. "To you it is given to understand the mysteries of the kingdom of God; But all others are taught in parables so that seeing they shall not see, and hearing they shall not hear.
11 Est autem haec parabola: Semen est verbum Dei.
"This is the meaning of the parable. The seed is the word of God.
12 Qui autem secus viam, hi sunt qui audiunt: deinde venit diabolus, et tollit verbum de corde eorum, ne credentes salvi fiant.
"Those by the wayside are people who hear, but then comes the devil and carries off the word from their heart, so that they may not believe and not be saved.
13 Nam qui supra petram: qui cum audierint, cum gaudio suscipiunt verbum: et hi radices non habent: quia ad tempus credunt, et in tempore tentationis recedunt.
"Those on the rock are people who, upon hearing, receive the word with joy; but they have no root. For a time indeed they all believe, but in time of temptation they fall away.
14 Quod autem in spinas cecidit: hi sunt, qui audierunt, et a solicitudinibus, et divitiis, et voluptatibus vitae euntes, suffocantur, et non referunt fructum.
"And that which fell upon thorns is those who have heard, but as they go on their way of word is choked with the cares and riches and pleasures of life; so they bring no fruit of perfection.
15 Quod autem in bonam terram: hi sunt, qui in corde bono et optimo audientes verbum retinent, et fructum afferunt in patientia.
"And that in the good soil is those who have listened to the message and, in an honest and good heart, hold fast, and bring forth fruit with patience.
16 Nemo autem lucernam accendens, operit eam vase, aut subtus lectum ponit: sed supra candelabrum ponit, ut intrantes videant lumen.
"When he lights a lamp no one covers it with a vase or hides it under a bed; he puts it on a lamp-stand so whoever may behold the light.
17 Non est enim occultum, quod non manifestetur: nec absconditum, quod non cognoscatur, et in palam veniat.
"For is nothing hidden that shall not be disclosed; there is nothing secret which shall not be made known and come to the light.
18 Videte ergo quomodo audiatis? Qui enim habet, dabitur illi: et quicumque non habet, etiam quod putat se habere, auferetur ab illo.
"Take heed, then, how you listen. for he who has, to him shall it be given, but from him who has not, shall be taken away even what he has."
19 Venerunt autem ad illum mater, et fratres eius, et non poterant adire eum prae turba.
There came to him his mother and his brothers, and they could not reach him because of the crowd.
20 Et nunciatum est illi: Mater tua, et fratres tui stant foris, volentes te videre.
But some one told him, "Your mother and brothers are standing outside, desiring to see you."
21 Qui respondens, dixit ad eos: Mater mea, et fratres mei hi sunt, qui verbum Dei audiunt, et faciunt.
"My mother and brothers," he answered, "are those who listen to the word of God and obey it."
22 Factum est autem in una dierum: et ipse ascendit in naviculam, et discipuli eius, et ait ad illos: Transfretemus trans stagnum. Et ascenderunt.
Now it happened that one of these days he got into a boat, And him his disciples, and he said to them, "Let us cross to the other side of the lake."
23 Et navigantibus illis, obdormivit, et descendit procella venti in stagnum, et compellebantur, et periclitabantur.
So they set sail. While they were sailing he fell asleep. And there fell on the lake a squall of wind, so that the boat began to fill, and they to be in deadly peril.
24 Accedentes autem suscitaverunt eum, dicentes: Praeceptor, perimus. At ille surgens, increpavit ventum, et tempestatem aquae, et cessavit: et facta est tranquillitas.
Then they came to him and woke him, saying, "Master, Master, we are lost!" Then he awoke, and rebuked the winds and the raging of the sea. They ceased, and there was a calm.
25 Dixit autem illis: Ubi est fides vestra? Qui timentes, mirati sunt ad invicem, dicentes: Quis putas hic est, quia ventis, et mari imperat, et obediunt ei?
"Where is your faith?" he asked them, In their terror they were filled with amazement, and said to one another, "Who is this who commands even the winds and the sea, and they obey him?"
26 Et navigaverunt ad regionem Gerasenorum, quae est contra Galilaeam.
Then they put in at the country of Gadarenes, which is across from Galilee.
27 Et cum de navi 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.
When he landed here he was met by a certain townsman who was possessed by demons. For a long time he had worn no clothes and nor lived in any house, but in tombs.
28 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.
When he saw Jesus he cried out, and fell down before him, and in a loud voice exclaimed. "What have we to do with you, Jesus, you son of God Most High? I implore you to torment me not!"
29 Praecipiebat enim spiritui immundo ut exiret ab homine. Multis enim temporibus arripiebat illum, et vinciebatur catenis, et compedibus custoditus. et ruptis vinculis agebatur a daemonio in deserta.
For Jesus was already commanding the unclean spirit to come out of the man. For many times it had seized him and held him, and they again and again kept him under guard, and put him in chains and fetters. But he would break his bonds asunder, as he was driven by the demon in to the desert.
30 Interrogavit autem illum Iesus, dicens: Quod tibi nomen est? At ille dixit: Legio: quia intraverant daemonia multa in eum.
So Jesus asked him, "What is your name?" And he answered, "Legion" (for many demons had entered into him).
So they besought Jesus not to command them to go away into the abyss. (Abyssos g12)
32 Erat autem ibi grex porcorum multorum pascentium in monte: et rogabant eum, ut permitteret eis in illos ingredi. Et permisit illis.
Now there was a great herd of swine feeding on the hillside, and the demons begged him to give them leave to enter them. He gave them leave.
33 Exierunt ergo daemonia ab homine, et intraverunt in porcos: et impetu abiit grex per praeceps in stagnum, et suffocatus est.
The demons came out of the man, and entered into the swine; the herd rushed violently down over the cliff into the lake.
34 Quod ut viderunt factum qui pascebant, fugerunt, et nunciaverunt in civitatem, et in villas.
And those who saw what had happened fled and reported it in the town and the villages.
35 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.
Then the people came out to see what had happened, and came to Jesus, and found the man out of whom the demons had gone sitting clothed and in his right mind, at the feet of Jesus. And they were terrified.
36 Nunciaverunt autem illis et qui viderant, quomodo sanus factus esset a legione:
Then those who had seen it told them how the demon-possessed man had been saved.
37 et rogaverunt illum omnis multitudo regionis Gerasenorum ut discederet ab ipsis: quia magno timore tenebantur. Ipse autem ascendens navim, reversus est.
And the whole populace of Gadarenes and the surrounding territory besought Jesus to go away from them; for they were terror-stricken. So he entered a boat and returned.
38 Et rogabat illum vir, a quo daemonia exierant, ut cum eo esset. Dimisit autem eum Iesus, dicens:
But the man out of whom the demons had gone kept begging him that he might be with him. But Jesus sent him away saying,
39 Redi in domum tuam, et narra quanta tibi fecit Deus. Et abiit per universam civitatem, praedicans quanta illi fecisset Iesus.
"Return to your home, and tell them all that God has done for you." So he went away and throughout the whole city he published how much Jesus had done for him.
40 Factum est autem cum rediisset Iesus, excepit illum turba. erunt enim omnes expectantes eum.
And as Jesus returned the crowd welcomed him;
41 Et ecce venit vir, cui nomen Iairus, et ipse princeps synagogae erat: et cecidit ad pedes Iesu, rogans eum ut intraret in domum eius,
for they were all waiting for him. Just then there came a man named Jarius, and he was ruler in the synagogue. He fell down at Jesus’ feet and begged him to come into his house;
42 quia unica filia erat ei fere annorum duodecim, et haec moriebatur. Et contigit, dum iret, a turba comprimebatur.
for he had only one daughter, about twelve years of age, and she lay dying. But as he went the crowds continued to press in on him.
43 Et mulier quaedam erat in fluxu sanguinis ab annis duodecim, quae in medicos erogaverat omnem substantiam suam, nec ab ullo potuit curari:
And a woman who for twelve years had had a hemorrhage, and had spent on doctors all that she had, but none had cured her,
44 accessit retro, et tetigit fimbriam vestimenti eius: et confestim stetit fluxus sanguinis eius.
came close behind him, and touched the hem of his garment; and instantly the hemorrhage ceased.
45 Et ait Iesus: Quis est, qui me tetigit? Negantibus autem omnibus, dixit Petrus, et qui cum illo erant: Praeceptor, turbae te comprimunt, et affligunt, et dicis: Quis me tetigit?
"Who is that touched me?" said Jesus and when everybody denied it, Peter said, "Master, the crowds are hemming you in and pressing upon you."
46 Et dicit Iesus: Tetigit me aliquis. nam et ego novi virtutem de me exiisse.
But Jesus said. "Some one did touch me; for I perceived that the power was proceeding out of me."
47 Videns autem mulier, quia non latuit, tremens venit, et procidit ante pedes eius: et ob quam causam tetigerit eum, indicavit coram omni populo: et quemadmodum confestim sanata sit.
Then the woman, who saw that she had not escaped notice, came trembling, and falling down before him, stated before the people for what reason she had touched him, and how she had been instantly healed.
48 At ipse dixit ei: Filia, fides tua salvam te fecit: vade in pace.
"Daughter," he said "your faith has made you well, go on into peace."
49 Adhuc illo loquente, venit quidam ad principem synagogae, dicens ei: Quia mortua est filia tua, noli vexare illum.
As he was speaking some one came from the house of the synagogue, saying. "Your daughter is dead! Do not trouble the Master."
50 Iesus autem, audito hoc verbo, respondit patri puellae: Noli timere, crede tantum, et salva erit.
But Jesus heard and answered. "Have no fear. Only believe, and she shall be restored."
51 Et cum venisset domum, non permisit intrare secum quemquam, nisi Petrum, et Iacobum, et Ioannem, et patrem, et matrem puellae.
So he came to the house, and would not permit anyone to go in with him except Peter and Johnand James, and the father and Mother of the little girl.
52 Flebant autem omnes, et plangebant illam. At ille dixit: Nolite flere, non est mortua puella, sed dormit.
The people were weeping and bewailing her, but he said. "Stop your wailing; for she is not dead, but asleep."
53 Et deridebant eum, scientes quod mortua esset.
They began to laugh him to scorn, because they knew well that she was dead.
54 Ipse autem tenens manum eius clamavit, dicens: Puella, surge.
But he took her by the hand and called to her, "Little daughter, rise!"
55 Et reversus est spiritus eius, et surrexit continuo. Et iussit illi dari manducare.
And her spirit returned and instantly she stood up.
56 Et stupuerunt parentes eius, quibus praecepit ne alicui dicerent quod factum erat.
He bade them to get her some food. Her parents were amazed; but he forbade them to tell any one what had been done.
