Luke 8

WEB·Luke 8
1Soon afterwards, he went about through cities and villages, preaching and bringing the good news of God’s Kingdom. With him were the twelve,
KJVAndG2532 it came to passG1096(G5633) afterwardG1722G2517, thatG2532 heG846 wentG1353(G5707) throughout everyG2596 cityG4172 andG2532 villageG2968, preachingG2784(G5723) andG2532 shewing the glad tidingsG2097(G5734) of the kingdomG932 of GodG2316: andG2532 the twelveG1427 were withG4862 himG846,
2 and certain women who had been healed of evil spirits and infirmities: Mary who was called Magdalene, from whom seven demons had gone out;
KJVAndG2532 certainG5100 womenG1135, whichG3739 had beenG2258(G5713) healedG2323(G5772) ofG575 evilG4190 spiritsG4151 andG2532 infirmitiesG769, MaryG3137 calledG2564(G5746) MagdaleneG3094, out ofG575 whomG3739 wentG1831(G5715) sevenG2033 devilsG1140,
3 and Joanna, the wife of Chuzas, Herod’s steward; Susanna; and many others who served them from their possessions.
KJVAndG2532 JoannaG2489 the wifeG1135 of ChuzaG5529 Herod'sG2264 stewardG2012, andG2532 SusannaG4677, andG2532 manyG4183 othersG2087, whichG3748 ministeredG1247(G5707) unto himG846 ofG575 theirG846 substanceG5224(G5723).
4 When a great multitude came together and people from every city were coming to him, he spoke by a parable:
KJVAndG1161 when muchG4183 peopleG3793 were gathered togetherG4896(G5752), andG2532 were comeG1975(G5740) toG4314 himG846 out of everyG2596 cityG4172, he spakeG2036(G5627) byG1223 a parableG3850:
5 “The farmer went out to sow his seed. As he sowed, some fell along the road, and it was trampled under foot, and the birds of the sky devoured it.
KJVA sowerG4687(G5723) went outG1831(G5627) to sowG4687(G5658) hisG846 seedG4703: andG2532 asG1722 heG846 sowedG4687(G5721), someG3739G3303 fellG4098(G5627) byG3844 the way sideG3598; andG2532 it was trodden downG2662(G5681), andG2532 the fowlsG4071 of the airG3772 devouredG2719(G5627) itG846.
6 Some seed fell on the rock, and as soon as it grew, it withered away, because it had no moisture.
KJVAndG2532 someG2087 fellG4098(G5627) uponG1909 a rockG4073; andG2532 as soon as it was sprung upG5453(G5651), it withered awayG3583(G5681), becauseG1223 it lackedG3361G2192(G5721) moistureG2429.
7 Some fell amid the thorns, and the thorns grew with it and choked it.
KJVAndG2532 someG2087 fellG4098(G5627) amongG1722G3319 thornsG173; andG2532 the thornsG173 sprang up with itG4855(G5651), and chokedG638(G5656)(G5625)G1970(G5656) itG846.
8 Some fell into the good ground and grew and produced one hundred times as much fruit.” As he said these things, he called out, “He who has ears to hear, let him hear!”
KJVAndG2532 otherG2087 fellG4098(G5627) onG1909 goodG18 groundG1093, andG2532 sprang upG5453(G5651), and bareG4160(G5656) fruitG2590 an hundredfoldG1542. And when he had saidG3004(G5723) these thingsG5023, he criedG5455(G5707), He that hathG2192(G5723) earsG3775 to hearG191(G5721), let him hearG191(G5720).
9 Then his disciples asked him, “What does this parable mean?”
KJVAndG1161 hisG846 disciplesG3101 askedG1905(G5707) himG846, sayingG3004(G5723), WhatG5101 mightG1498 thisG3778 parableG3850 beG1498(G5751)?
10 He said, “To you it is given to know the mysteries of God’s Kingdom, but to the rest it is given in parables, that ‘seeing they may not see, and hearing they may not understand.’
KJVAndG1161 he saidG2036(G5627), Unto youG5213 it is givenG1325(G5769) to knowG1097(G5629) the mysteriesG3466 of the kingdomG932 of GodG2316: butG1161 to othersG3062 inG1722 parablesG3850; thatG2443 seeingG991(G5723) they mightG991 notG3361 seeG991(G5725), andG2532 hearingG191(G5723) they mightG4920 notG3361 understandG4920(G5725).
11 “Now the parable is this: The seed is the word of God.
KJVNowG1161 the parableG3850 isG2076(G5748) thisG3778: The seedG4703 isG2076(G5748) the wordG3056 of GodG2316.
12 Those along the road are those who hear; then the devil comes and takes away the word from their heart, that they may not believe and be saved.
KJVThoseG1161 byG3844 the way sideG3598 areG1526(G5748) they that hearG191(G5723); thenG1534 comethG2064(G5736) the devilG1228, andG2532 taketh awayG142(G5719) the wordG3056 out ofG575 theirG846 heartsG2588, lestG3363 they should believeG4100(G5660) and be savedG4982(G5686).
13 Those on the rock are they who, when they hear, receive the word with joy; but these have no root. They believe for a while, then fall away in time of temptation.
KJVG1161 They onG1909 the rockG4073 are they, whichG3739, whenG3752 they hearG191(G5661), receiveG1209(G5736) the wordG3056 withG3326 joyG5479; andG2532 theseG3778 haveG2192(G5719) noG3756 rootG4491, whichG3739 forG4314 a whileG2540 believeG4100(G5719), andG2532 inG1722 timeG2540 of temptationG3986 fall awayG868(G5736).
14 What fell among the thorns, these are those who have heard, and as they go on their way they are choked with cares, riches, and pleasures of life; and they bring no fruit to maturity.
KJVAndG1161 that which fellG4098(G5631) amongG1519 thornsG173 areG1526(G5748) theyG3778, which, when they have heardG191(G5660), go forthG4198(G5740), andG2532 are chokedG4846(G5743) withG5259 caresG3308 andG2532 richesG4149 andG2532 pleasuresG2237 of this lifeG979, andG2532 bringG5052 noG3756 fruit to perfectionG5052(G5719).
15 Those in the good ground, these are those who with an honest and good heart, having heard the word, hold it tightly, and produce fruit with perseverance.
KJVButG1161 that onG1722 the goodG2570 groundG1093 areG1526(G5748) theyG3778, whichG3748 inG1722 an honestG2570 andG2532 goodG18 heartG2588, having heardG191(G5660) the wordG3056, keepG2722(G5719) it, andG2532 bring forth fruitG2592(G5719) withG1722 patienceG5281.
16 “No one, when he has lit a lamp, covers it with a container or puts it under a bed; but puts it on a stand, that those who enter in may see the light.
KJVG1161 No manG3762, when he hath lightedG681(G5660) a candleG3088, coverethG2572(G5719) itG846 with a vesselG4632, orG2228 puttethG5087(G5719) it underG5270 a bedG2825; butG235 settethG2007(G5719) it onG1909 a candlestickG3087, thatG2443 they which enter inG1531(G5740) may seeG991(G5725) the lightG5457.
17 For nothing is hidden that will not be revealed, nor anything secret that will not be known and come to light.
KJVForG1063 nothingG3756 isG2076(G5748) secretG2927, thatG3739 shallG1096 notG3756 be madeG1096(G5695) manifestG5318; neitherG3761 any thing hidG614, thatG3739 shallG1097 notG3756 be knownG1097(G5701) andG2532 comeG2064(G5632) abroadG1519G5318.
18 Be careful therefore how you hear. For whoever has, to him will be given; and whoever doesn’t have, from him will be taken away even that which he thinks he has.”
KJVTake heedG991(G5720) thereforeG3767 howG4459 ye hearG191(G5719): forG1063 whosoeverG3739G302 hathG2192(G5725), to himG846 shall be givenG1325(G5701); andG2532 whosoeverG3739G302 hathG2192(G5725) notG3361, fromG575 himG846 shall be takenG142(G5701) evenG2532 that whichG3739 he seemethG1380(G5719) to haveG2192(G5721).
19 His mother and brothers came to him, and they could not come near him for the crowd.
KJVThenG1161 cameG3854(G5633) toG4314 himG846 his motherG3384 andG2532 hisG846 brethrenG80, andG2532 couldG1410(G5711) notG3756 comeG4940(G5629) at himG846 forG1223 the pressG3793.
20 Some people told him, “Your mother and your brothers stand outside, desiring to see you.”
KJVAndG2532 it was toldG518(G5648) himG846 by certain which saidG3004(G5723), ThyG4675 motherG3384 andG2532 thyG4675 brethrenG80 standG2476(G5758) withoutG1854, desiringG2309(G5723) to seeG1492(G5629) theeG4571.
21 But he answered them, “My mother and my brothers are these who hear the word of God and do it.”
KJVAndG1161 he answeredG611(G5679) and saidG2036(G5627) untoG4314 themG846, MyG3450 motherG3384 andG2532 myG3450 brethrenG80 areG1526(G5748) theseG3778 whichG3588 hearG191(G5723) the wordG3056 of GodG2316, andG2532 doG4160(G5723) itG846.
22 Now on one of those days, he entered into a boat, himself and his disciples, and he said to them, “Let’s go over to the other side of the lake.” So they launched out.
KJVNowG2532 it came to passG1096(G5633) onG1722 a certainG3391 dayG2250, thatG2532 heG846 wentG1684(G5627) intoG1519 a shipG4143 withG2532 hisG846 disciplesG3101: andG2532 he saidG2036(G5627) untoG4314 themG846, Let us go overG1330(G5632) untoG1519 the other sideG4008 of the lakeG3041. AndG2532 they launched forthG321(G5681).
23 But as they sailed, he fell asleep. A wind storm came down on the lake, and they were taking on dangerous amounts of water.
KJVButG1161 as theyG846 sailedG4126(G5723) he fell asleepG879(G5656): andG2532 there came downG2597(G5627) a stormG2978 of windG417 onG1519 the lakeG3041; andG2532 they were filledG4845(G5712) with water, andG2532 were in jeopardyG2793(G5707).
24 They came to him and awoke him, saying, “Master, Master, we are dying!” He awoke and rebuked the wind and the raging of the water; then they ceased, and it was calm.
KJVAndG1161 they came to himG4334(G5631), and awokeG1326(G5656) himG846, sayingG3004(G5723), MasterG1988, masterG1988, we perishG622(G5731). ThenG1161 he aroseG1453(G5685), and rebukedG2008(G5656) the windG417 andG2532 the ragingG2830 of the waterG5204: andG2532 they ceasedG3973(G5668), andG2532 there wasG1096(G5633) a calmG1055.
25 He said to them, “Where is your faith?” Being afraid, they marveled, saying to one another, “Who is this then, that he commands even the winds and the water, and they obey him?”
KJVAndG1161 he saidG2036(G5627) unto themG846, WhereG4226 isG2076(G5748) yourG5216 faithG4102? AndG1161 they being afraidG5399(G5679) wonderedG2296(G5656), sayingG3004(G5723) one to anotherG4314G240, What manner of manG5101G686 isG2076(G5748) thisG3778! forG3754 he commandethG2004(G5719) evenG2532 the windsG417 andG2532 waterG5204, andG2532 they obeyG5219(G5719) himG846.
26 Then they arrived at the country of the Gadarenes, which is opposite Galilee.
KJVAndG2532 they arrivedG2668(G5656) atG1519 the countryG5561 of the GadarenesG1046, whichG3748 isG2076(G5748) over againstG495 GalileeG1056.
27 When Jesus stepped ashore, a certain man out of the city who had demons for a long time met him. He wore no clothes, and didn’t live in a house, but in the tombs.
KJVAndG1161 when heG846 went forthG1831(G5631) toG1909 landG1093, there metG5221(G5656) himG846 out ofG1537 the cityG4172 a certainG5100 manG435, whichG3739 hadG2192(G5707) devilsG1140 longG1537G2425 timeG5550, andG2532 wareG1737(G5710) noG3756 clothesG2440, neitherG2532G3756 abodeG3306(G5707) inG1722 any houseG3614, butG235 inG1722 the tombsG3418.
28 When he saw Jesus, he cried out and fell down before him, and with a loud voice said, “What do I have to do with you, Jesus, you Son of the Most High God? I beg you, don’t torment me!”
KJVWhenG1161 he sawG1492(G5631) JesusG2424, he cried outG349(G5660), andG2532 fell down beforeG4363(G5627) himG846, andG2532 with a loudG3173 voiceG5456 saidG2036(G5627), WhatG5101 have IG1698 to do withG2532 theeG4671, JesusG2424, thou SonG5207 of GodG2316 most highG5310? I beseechG1189(G5736) theeG4675, tormentG928(G5661) meG3165 notG3361.
29 For Jesus was commanding the unclean spirit to come out of the man. For the unclean spirit had often seized the man. He was kept under guard and bound with chains and fetters. Breaking the bonds apart, he was driven by the demon into the desert.
KJV(ForG1063 he had commandedG3853(G5707)(G5625)G3853(G5656) the uncleanG169 spiritG4151 to comeG1831(G5629) out ofG575 the manG444. ForG1063 oftentimesG4183G5550 it had caughtG4884(G5715) himG846: andG2532 he was keptG5442(G5746) boundG1196(G5712) with chainsG254 andG2532 in fettersG3976; andG2532 he brakeG1284(G5723) the bandsG1199, and was drivenG1643(G5712) ofG5259 the devilG1142 intoG1519 the wildernessG2048.)
30 Jesus asked him, “What is your name?” He said, “Legion,” for many demons had entered into him.
KJVAndG1161 JesusG2424 askedG1905(G5656) himG846, sayingG3004(G5723), WhatG5101 isG2076(G5748) thyG4671 nameG3686? AndG1161 he saidG2036(G5627), LegionG3003: becauseG3754 manyG4183 devilsG1140 were enteredG1525(G5627) intoG1519 himG846.
31 They begged him that he would not command them to go into the abyss.
KJVAndG2532 they besoughtG3870(G5707)(G5625)G3870(G5707) himG846 thatG3363 he wouldG2004 notG3363 commandG2004(G5661) themG846 to go outG565(G5629) intoG1519 the deepG12.
32 Now there was there a herd of many pigs feeding on the mountain, and they begged him that he would allow them to enter into those. Then he allowed them.
KJVAndG1161 there wasG2258(G5713) thereG1563 an herdG34 of manyG2425 swineG5519 feedingG1006(G5746) onG1722 the mountainG3735: andG2532 they besoughtG3870(G5707) himG846 thatG2443 he would sufferG2010(G5661) themG846 to enterG1525(G5629) intoG1519 themG1565. AndG2532 he sufferedG2010(G5656) themG846.
33 The demons came out of the man and entered into the pigs, and the herd rushed down the steep bank into the lake and were drowned.
KJVThenG1161 wentG1831(G5631) the devilsG1140 out ofG575 the manG444, and enteredG1525(G5627) intoG1519 the swineG5519: andG2532 the herdG34 ranG3729(G5656) violently downG2596 a steepG2911 place intoG1519 the lakeG3041, andG2532 were chokedG638(G5648).
34 When those who fed them saw what had happened, they fled and told it in the city and in the country.
KJVWhenG1161 they that fedG1006(G5723) them sawG1492(G5631) what was doneG1096(G5772), they fledG5343(G5627), andG2532 wentG565(G5631) and toldG518(G5656) it inG1519 the cityG4172 andG2532 inG1519 the countryG68.
35 People went out to see what had happened. They came to Jesus and found the man from whom the demons had gone out, sitting at Jesus’ feet, clothed and in his right mind; and they were afraid.
KJVThenG1161 they went outG1831(G5627) to seeG1492(G5629) what was doneG1096(G5756); andG2532 cameG2064(G5627) toG4314 JesusG2424, andG2532 foundG2147(G5627) the manG444, out ofG575 whomG3739 the devilsG1140 were departedG1831(G5715), sittingG2521(G5740) atG3844 the feetG4228 of JesusG2424, clothedG2439(G5772), andG2532 in his right mindG4993(G5723): andG2532 they were afraidG5399(G5675).
36 Those who saw it told them how he who had been possessed by demons was healed.
KJVG1161 They alsoG2532 which sawG1492(G5631) it toldG518(G5656) themG846 by what meansG4459 he that was possessed of the devilsG1139(G5679) was healedG4982(G5681).
37 All the people of the surrounding country of the Gadarenes asked him to depart from them, for they were very much afraid. Then he entered into the boat and returned.
KJVThenG2532 the wholeG537 multitudeG4128 of the countryG4066 of the GadarenesG1046 round aboutG4066 besoughtG2065(G5656) himG846 to departG565(G5629) fromG575 themG846; forG3754 they were takenG4912(G5712) with greatG3173 fearG5401: andG1161 heG846 went upG1684(G5631) intoG1519 the shipG4143, and returned back againG5290(G5656).
38 But the man from whom the demons had gone out begged him that he might go with him, but Jesus sent him away, saying,
KJVNowG1161 the manG435 out ofG575 whomG3739 the devilsG1140 were departedG1831(G5715) besoughtG1189(G5711) himG846 that he might beG1511(G5750) withG4862 himG846: butG1161 JesusG2424 sentG630 himG846 awayG630(G5656), sayingG3004(G5723),
39 “Return to your house, and declare what great things God has done for you.” He went his way, proclaiming throughout the whole city what great things Jesus had done for him.
KJVReturnG5290(G5720) toG1519 thine ownG4675 houseG3624, andG2532 shewG1334(G5737) how great thingsG3745 GodG2316 hath doneG4160(G5656) unto theeG4671. AndG2532 he went his wayG565(G5627), and publishedG2784(G5723) throughoutG2596 the wholeG3650 cityG4172 how great thingsG3745 JesusG2424 had doneG4160(G5656) unto himG846.
40 When Jesus returned, the multitude welcomed him, for they were all waiting for him.
KJVAndG1161 it came to passG1096(G5633), that, whenG1722 JesusG2424 was returnedG5290(G5658), the peopleG3793 gladly receivedG588(G5662) himG846: forG1063 they wereG2258(G5713) allG3956 waiting forG4328(G5723) himG846.
41 Behold, a man named Jairus came. He was a ruler of the synagogue. He fell down at Jesus’ feet and begged him to come into his house,
KJVAndG2532, beholdG2400(G5628), there cameG2064(G5627) a manG435 namedG3739G3686 JairusG2383, andG2532 heG846 wasG5225(G5707) a rulerG758 of the synagogueG4864: andG2532 he fell downG4098(G5631) atG3844 JesusG2424' feetG4228, and besoughtG3870(G5707) himG846 that he would comeG1525(G5629) intoG1519 hisG846 houseG3624:
42 for he had an only born daughter, about twelve years of age, and she was dying. But as he went, the multitudes pressed against him.
KJVForG3754 heG846 hadG2258(G5713) one onlyG3439 daughterG2364, aboutG5613 twelveG1427 years of ageG2094, andG2532 sheG3778(G5625)G846 lay a dyingG599(G5707). ButG1161 asG1722 heG846 wentG5217(G5721) the peopleG3793 throngedG4846(G5707) himG846.
43 A woman who had a flow of blood for twelve years, who had spent all her living on physicians and could not be healed by any,
KJVAndG2532 a womanG1135 havingG5607(G5752)G1722 an issueG4511 of bloodG129 twelveG1427 yearsG575G2094, whichG3748 had spentG4321(G5660) allG3650 her livingG979 uponG1519 physiciansG2395, neitherG3756 couldG2480(G5656) be healedG2323(G5683) ofG5259 anyG3762,

KJVCameG4334(G5631) behindG3693 him, and touchedG680(G5662) the borderG2899 of hisG846 garmentG2440: andG2532 immediatelyG3916 herG846 issueG4511 of bloodG129 stanchedG2476(G5627).
45 Jesus said, “Who touched me?” When all denied it, Peter and those with him said, “Master, the multitudes press and jostle you, and you say, ‘Who touched me?’”
KJVAndG2532 JesusG2424 saidG2036(G5627), WhoG5101 touchedG680(G5671) meG3450? WhenG1161 allG3956 deniedG720(G5740), PeterG4074 andG2532 they that were withG3326 himG846 saidG2036(G5627), MasterG1988, the multitudeG3793 throngG4912(G5719) theeG4571 andG2532 pressG598(G5719) thee, andG2532 sayestG3004(G5719) thou, WhoG5101 touchedG680(G5671) meG3450?
46 But Jesus said, “Someone did touch me, for I perceived that power has gone out of me.”
KJVAndG1161 JesusG2424 saidG2036(G5627), SomebodyG5100 hath touchedG680(G5662) meG3450: forG1063 IG1473 perceiveG1097(G5627) that virtueG1411 is goneG1831(G5631) out ofG575 meG1700.
47 When the woman saw that she was not hidden, she came trembling; and falling down before him declared to him in the presence of all the people the reason why she had touched him, and how she was healed immediately.
KJVAndG1161 when the womanG1135 sawG1492(G5631) thatG3754 she wasG2990 notG3756 hidG2990(G5627), she cameG2064(G5627) tremblingG5141(G5723), andG2532 falling down beforeG4363(G5631) himG846, she declaredG518(G5656) unto himG846 beforeG1799 allG3956 the peopleG2992 forG1223 whatG3739 causeG156 she had touchedG680(G5662) himG846, andG2532 howG5613 she was healedG2390(G5681) immediatelyG3916.
48 He said to her, “Daughter, cheer up. Your faith has made you well. Go in peace.”
KJVAndG1161 he saidG2036(G5627) unto herG846, DaughterG2364, be of good comfortG2293(G5720): thyG4675 faithG4102 hath madeG4982 theeG4571 wholeG4982(G5758); goG4198(G5737) inG1519 peaceG1515.
49 While he still spoke, one from the ruler of the synagogue’s house came, saying to him, “Your daughter is dead. Don’t trouble the Teacher.”
KJVWhile heG846 yetG2089 spakeG2980(G5723), there comethG2064(G5736) oneG5100 fromG3844 the ruler of the synagogue'sG752 house, sayingG3004(G5723) to himG846,G3754 ThyG4675 daughterG2364 is deadG2348(G5758); troubleG4660(G5720) notG3361 the MasterG1320.
50 But Jesus hearing it, answered him, “Don’t be afraid. Only believe, and she will be healed.”
KJVButG1161 when JesusG2424 heardG191(G5660) it, he answeredG611(G5662) himG846, sayingG3004(G5723), FearG5399(G5737) notG3361: believeG4100(G5720) onlyG3440, andG2532 she shall be made wholeG4982(G5701).
51 When he came to the house, he didn’t allow anyone to enter in, except Peter, John, James, the father of the child, and her mother.
KJVAndG1161 when he cameG1525(G5631) intoG1519 the houseG3614, he sufferedG863(G5656) noG3756 manG3762 to go inG1525(G5629), saveG1508 PeterG4074, andG2532 JamesG2385, andG2532 JohnG2491, andG2532 the fatherG3962 andG2532 the motherG3384 of the maidenG3816.
52 All were weeping and mourning her, but he said, “Don’t weep. She isn’t dead, but sleeping.”
KJVAndG1161 allG3956 weptG2799(G5707), andG2532 bewailedG2875(G5710) herG846: butG1161 he saidG2036(G5627), WeepG2799(G5720) notG3361; she isG599 notG3756 deadG599(G5627), butG235 sleepethG2518(G5719).
53 They were ridiculing him, knowing that she was dead.
KJVAndG2532 they laughedG2606 himG846 to scornG2606(G5707), knowingG1492(G5761) thatG3754 she was deadG599(G5627).
54 But he put them all outside, and taking her by the hand, he called, saying, “Child, arise!”
KJVAndG1161 heG846 putG1544(G5631) them allG3956 outG1854, andG2532 tookG2902(G5660) herG846 by the handG5495, and calledG5455(G5656), sayingG3004(G5723), MaidG3816, ariseG1453(G5728).
55 Her spirit returned, and she rose up immediately. He commanded that something be given to her to eat.
KJVAndG2532 herG846 spiritG4151 came againG1994(G5656), andG2532 she aroseG450(G5627) straightwayG3916: andG2532 he commandedG1299(G5656) to giveG1325(G5683) herG846 meatG5315(G5629).
56 Her parents were amazed, but he commanded them to tell no one what had been done.
KJVAndG2532 herG846 parentsG1118 were astonishedG1839(G5627): butG1161 he chargedG3853(G5656) themG846 that they should tellG2036(G5629) no manG3367 what was doneG1096(G5756).
