8:1

Και εγενετο εν τω καθεξης και αυτος διωδευεν κατα πολιν και κωμην κηρυσσων και ευαγγελιζομενος την βασιλειαν του Θεου και οι δωδεκα συν αυτω

And it came to pass soon afterwards, that he went about through cities and villages, preaching and bringing the good tidings of the kingdom of God, and with him the twelve,

8:2

και γυναικες τινες αι ησαν τεθεραπευμεναι απο πνευματων πονηρων και ασθενειων Μαρια η καλουμενη Μαγδαληνη αφ ης δαιμονια επτα εξεληλυθει

and certain women who had been healed of evil spirits and infirmities: Mary that was called Magdalene, from whom seven demons had gone out,

8:3

και Ιωαννα γυνη Χουζα επιτροπου Ηρωδου και Σουσαννα και ετεραι πολλαι αιτινες διηκονουν αυτοις εκ των υπαρχοντων αυταις

and Joanna the wife of Chuzas Herod’s steward, and Susanna, and many others, who ministered unto them of their substance.

8:4

Συνιοντος δε οχλου πολλου και των κατα πολιν επιπορευομενων προς αυτον ειπεν δια παραβολης

And when a great multitude came together, and they of every city resorted unto him, he spake by a parable:

8:5

Εξηλθεν ο σπειρων του σπειραι τον σπορον αυτου και εν τω σπειρειν αυτον ο μεν επεσεν παρα την οδον και κατεπατηθη και τα πετεινα του ουρανου κατεφαγεν αυτο

The sower went forth to sow his seed: and as he sowed, some fell by the way side; and it was trodden under foot, and the birds of the heaven devoured it.

8:6

Και ετερον κατεπεσεν επι την πετραν και φυεν εξηρανθη δια το μη εχειν ικμαδα

And other fell on the rock; and as soon as it grew, it withered away, because it had no moisture.

8:7

Και ετερον επεσεν εν μεσω των ακανθων και συμφυεισαι αι ακανθαι απεπνιξαν αυτο

And other fell amidst the thorns; and the thorns grew with it, and choked it.

8:8

Και ετερον επεσεν εις την γην την αγαθην και φυεν εποιησεν καρπον εκατονταπλασιονα Ταυτα λεγων εφωνει Ο εχων ωτα ακουειν ακουετω

And other fell into the good ground, and grew, and brought forth fruit a hundredfold. As he said these things, he cried, He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.

8:9

Επηρωτων δε αυτον οι μαθηται αυτου Τις αυτη ειη η παραβολη

And his disciples asked him what this parable might be.

8:10

Ο δε ειπεν Υμιν δεδοται γνωναι τα μυστηρια της βασιλειας του Θεου τοις δε λοιποις εν παραβολαις ινα Βλεποντες μη βλεπωσιν Και ακουοντες μη συνιωσιν

And he said, Unto you it is given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of God: but to the rest in parables; that seeing they may not see, and hearing they may not understand.

8:11

Εστιν δε αυτη η παραβολη ο σπορος εστιν ο λογος του Θεου

Now the parable is this: The seed is the word of God.

8:12

οι δε παρα την οδον εισιν οι ακουσαντες ειτα ερχεται ο διαβολος και αιρει τον λογον απο της καρδιας αυτων ινα μη πιστευσαντες σωθωσιν

And those by the way side are they that have heard; then cometh the devil, and taketh away the word from their heart, that they may not believe and be saved.

8:13

Οι δε επι της πετρας οι οταν ακουσωσιν μετα χαρας δεχονται τον λογον και ουτοι ριζαν ουκ εχουσιν οι προς καιρον πιστευουσιν και εν καιρω πειρασμου αφιστανται

And those on the rock are they who, when they have heard, receive the word with joy; and these have no root, who for a while believe, and in time of temptation fall away.

8:14

Το δε εις τας ακανθας πεσον ουτοι εισιν οι ακουσαντες και υπο μεριμνων και πλουτου και ηδονων του βιου πορευομενοι συμπνιγονται και ου τελεσφορουσιν

And that which fell among the thorns, these are they that have heard, and as they go on their way they are choked with cares and riches and pleasures of this life, and bring no fruit to perfection.

8:15

Το δε εν τη καλη γη ουτοι εισιν οιτινες εν καρδια καλη και αγαθη ακουσαντες τον λογον κατεχουσιν και καρποφορουσιν εν υπομονη

And that in the good ground, these are such as in an honest and good heart, having heard the word, hold it fast, and bring forth fruit with patience.

8:16

Ουδεις δε λυχνον αψας καλυπτει αυτον σκευει η υποκατω κλινης τιθησιν αλλ επι λυχνιας τιθησιν ινα οι εισπορευομενοι βλεπωσιν το φως

And no man, when he hath lighted a lamp, covereth it with a vessel, or putteth it under a bed; but putteth it on a stand, that they that enter in may see the light.

8:17

ου γαρ εστιν κρυπτον ο ου φανερον γενησεται ουδε αποκρυφον ο ου μη γνωσθη και εις φανερον ελθη

For nothing is hid, that shall not be made manifest; nor anything secret, that shall not be known and come to light.

8:18

Βλεπετε ουν πως ακουετε ος αν γαρ εχη δοθησεται αυτω και ος αν μη εχη και ο δοκει εχειν αρθησεται απ αυτου

Take heed therefore how ye hear: for whosoever hath, to him shall be given; and whosoever hath not, from him shall be taken away even that which he thinketh he hath.

8:19

Παρεγενετο δε προς αυτον η μητηρ και οι αδελφοι αυτου και ουκ ηδυναντο συντυχειν αυτω δια τον οχλον

And there came to him his mother and brethren, and they could not come at him for the crowd.

8:20

απηγγελη δε αυτω Η μητηρ σου και οι αδελφοι σου εστηκασιν εξω ιδειν θελοντες σε

And it was told him, Thy mother and thy brethren stand without, desiring to see thee.

8:21

Ο δε αποκριθεις ειπεν προς αυτους Μητηρ μου και αδελφοι μου ουτοι εισιν οι τον λογον του Θεου ακουοντες και ποιουντες

But he answered and said unto them, My mother and my brethren are these that hear the word of God, and do it.

8:22

Εγενετο δε εν μια των ημερων και αυτος ενεβη εις πλοιον και οι μαθηται αυτου και ειπεν προς αυτους Διελθωμεν εις το περαν της λιμνης και ανηχθησαν

Now it came to pass on one of those days, that he entered into a boat, himself and his disciples; and he said unto them, Let us go over unto the other side of the lake: and they launched forth.

8:23

πλεοντων δε αυτων αφυπνωσεν και κατεβη λαιλαψ ανεμου εις την λιμνην και συνεπληρουντο και εκινδυνευον

But as they sailed he fell asleep: and there came down a storm of wind on the lake; and they were filling with water, and were in jeopardy.

8:24

Προσελθοντες δε διηγειραν αυτον λεγοντες Επιστατα επιστατα απολλυμεθα Ο δε διεγερθεις επετιμησεν τω ανεμω και τω κλυδωνι του υδατος και επαυσαντο και εγενετο γαληνη

And they came to him, and awoke him, saying, Master, master, we perish. And he awoke, and rebuked the wind and the raging of the water: and they ceased, and there was a calm.

8:25

Ειπεν δε αυτοις Που η πιστις υμων Φοβηθεντες δε εθαυμασαν λεγοντες προς αλληλους Τις αρα ουτος εστιν οτι και τοις ανεμοις επιτασσει και τω υδατι και υπακουουσιν αυτω

And he said unto them, Where is your faith? And being afraid they marvelled, saying one to another, Who then is this, that he commandeth even the winds and the water, and they obey him?

8:26

Και κατεπλευσαν εις την χωραν των Γερασηνων ητις εστιν αντιπερα της Γαλιλαιας

And they arrived at the country of the Gerasenes, which is over against Galilee.

8:27

εξελθοντι δε αυτω επι την γην υπηντησεν ανηρ τις εκ της πολεως εχων δαιμονια και χρονω ικανω ουκ ενεδυσατο ιματιον και εν οικια ουκ εμενεν αλλ εν τοις μνημασιν

And when he was come forth upon the land, there met him a certain man out of the city, who had demons; and for a long time he had worn no clothes, and abode not in any house, but in the tombs.

8:28

Ιδων δε τον Ιησουν ανακραξας προσεπεσεν αυτω και φωνη μεγαλη ειπεν Τι εμοι και σοι Ιησου Υιε του Θεου του Υψιστου δεομαι σου μη με βασανισης

And when he saw Jesus, he cried out, and fell down before him, and with a loud voice said, What have I to do with thee, Jesus, thou Son of the Most High God? I beseech thee, torment me not.

8:29

παρηγγειλεν γαρ τω πνευματι τω ακαθαρτω εξελθειν απο του ανθρωπου πολλοις γαρ χρονοις συνηρπακει αυτον και εδεσμευετο αλυσεσιν και πεδαις φυλασσομενος και διαρρησσων τα δεσμα ηλαυνετο υπο του δαιμονιου εις τας ερημους

For he was commanding the unclean spirit to come out from the man. For oftentimes it had seized him: and he was kept under guard, and bound with chains and fetters; and breaking the bands asunder, he was driven of the demon into the deserts.

8:30

Επηρωτησεν δε αυτον ο Ιησους Τι σοι ονομα εστιν ο Δε ειπεν Λεγιων οτι εισηλθεν δαιμονια πολλα εις αυτον

And Jesus asked him, What is thy name? And he said, Legion; for many demons were entered into him.

8:31

και παρεκαλουν αυτον ινα μη επιταξη αυτοις εις την αβυσσον απελθειν

And they entreated him that he would not command them to depart into the abyss.

8:32

Ην δε εκει αγελη χοιρων ικανων βοσκομενη εν τω ορει και παρεκαλεσαν αυτον ινα επιτρεψη αυτοις εις εκεινους εισελθειν και επετρεψεν αυτοις

Now there was there a herd of many swine feeding on the mountain: and they entreated him that he would give them leave to enter into them. And he gave them leave.

8:33

Εξελθοντα δε τα δαιμονια απο του ανθρωπου εισηλθον εις τους χοιρους και ωρμησεν η αγελη κατα του κρημνου εις την λιμνην και απεπνιγη

And the demons came out from the man, and entered into the swine: and the herd rushed down the steep into the lake, and were drowned.

8:34

Ιδοντες δε οι βοσκοντες το γεγονος εφυγον και απηγγειλαν εις την πολιν και εις τους αγρους

And when they that fed them saw what had come to pass, they fled, and told it in the city and in the country.

8:35

εξηλθον δε ιδειν το γεγονος και ηλθον προς τον Ιησουν και ευρον καθημενον τον ανθρωπον αφ ου τα δαιμονια εξηλθεν ιματισμενον και σωφρονουντα παρα τους ποδας του Ιησου και εφοβηθησαν

And they went out to see what had come to pass; and they came to Jesus, and found the man, from whom the demons were gone out, sitting, clothed and in his right mind, at the feet of Jesus: and they were afraid.

8:36

απηγγειλαν δε αυτοις οι ιδοντες πως εσωθη ο δαιμονισθεις

And they that saw it told them how he that was possessed with demons was made whole.

8:37

Και ηρωτησεν αυτον απαν το πληθος της περιχωρου των Γερασηνων απελθειν απ αυτων οτι φοβω μεγαλω συνειχοντο αυτος δε εμβας εις πλοιον υπεστρεψεν

And all the people of the country of the Gerasenes round about asked him to depart from them; for they were holden with great fear: and he entered into a boat, and returned.

8:38

Εδειτο δε αυτου ο ανηρ αφ ου εξεληλυθει τα δαιμονια ειναι συν αυτω απελυσεν δε αυτον λεγων

But the man from whom the demons were gone out prayed him that he might be with him: but he sent him away, saying,

8:39

Υποστρεφε εις τον οικον σου και διηγου οσα σοι εποιησεν ο Θεος και απηλθεν καθ ολην την πολιν κηρυσσων οσα εποιησεν αυτω ο Ιησους

Return to thy house, and declare how great things God hath done for thee. And he went his way, publishing throughout the whole city how great things Jesus had done for him.

8:40

Εν δε τω υποστρεφειν τον Ιησουν απεδεξατο αυτον ο οχλος ησαν γαρ παντες προσδοκωντες αυτον

And as Jesus returned, the multitude welcomed him; for they were all waiting for him.

8:41

και ιδου ηλθεν ανηρ ω ονομα Ιαιρος και ουτος αρχων της συναγωγης υπηρχεν και πεσων παρα τους ποδας του Ιησου παρεκαλει αυτον εισελθειν εις τον οικον αυτου

And behold, there came a man named Jairus, and he was a ruler of the synagogue: and he fell down at Jesus’ feet, and besought him to come into his house;

8:42

οτι θυγατηρ μονογενης ην αυτω ως ετων δωδεκα και αυτη απεθνησκεν Εν δε τω υπαγειν αυτον οι οχλοι συνεπνιγον αυτον

for he had an only daughter, about twelve years of age, and she was dying. But as he went the multitudes thronged him.

8:43

και γυνη ουσα εν ρυσει αιματος απο ετων δωδεκα ητις ιατροις προσαναλωσασα ολον τον βιον ουκ ισχυσεν απ ουδενος θεραπευθηναι

And a woman having an issue of blood twelve years, who had spent all her living upon physicians, and could not be healed of any,

8:44

προσελθουσα οπισθεν ηψατο του κρασπεδου του ιματιου αυτου και παραχρημα εστη η ρυσις του αιματος αυτης

came behind him, and touched the border of his garment: and immediately the issue of her blood stanched.

¹

8:45

Και ειπεν ο Ιησους Τις ο αψαμενος μου Αρνουμενων δε παντων ειπεν ο Πετρος Επιστατα οι οχλοι συνεχουσιν σε και αποθλιβουσιν

And Jesus said, Who is it that touched me? And when all denied, Peter said, and they that were with him, Master, the multitudes press thee and crush thee.

8:46

Ο δε Ιησους ειπεν Ηψατο μου τις εγω γαρ εγνων δυναμιν εξεληλυθυιαν απ εμου

But Jesus said, Some one did touch me; for I perceived that power had gone forth from me.

8:47

Ιδουσα δε η γυνη οτι ουκ ελαθεν τρεμουσα ηλθεν και προσπεσουσα αυτω δι ην αιτιαν ηψατο αυτου απηγγειλεν ενωπιον παντος του λαου και ως ιαθη παραχρημα

And when the woman saw that she was not hid, she came trembling, and falling down before him declared in the presence of all the people for what cause she touched him, and how she was healed immediately.

8:48

Ο δε ειπεν αυτη Θυγατηρ η πιστις σου σεσωκεν σε πορευου εις ειρηνην

And he said unto her, Daughter, thy faith hath made thee whole; go in peace.

8:49

Ετι αυτου λαλουντος ερχεται τις παρα του αρχισυναγωγου λεγων οτι Τεθνηκεν η θυγατηρ σου μηκετι σκυλλε τον Διδασκαλον

While he yet spake, there cometh one from the ruler of the synagogue’s house, saying, Thy daughter is dead; trouble not the Teacher.

8:50

Ο δε Ιησους ακουσας απεκριθη αυτω Μη φοβου μονον πιστευσον και σωθησεται

But Jesus hearing it, answered him, Fear not: only believe, and she shall be made whole.

8:51

Ελθων δε εις την οικιαν ουκ αφηκεν εισελθειν τινα συν αυτω ει μη Πετρον και Ιωαννην και Ιακωβον και τον πατερα της παιδος και την μητερα

And when he came to the house, he suffered not any man to enter in with him, save Peter, and John, and James, and the father of the maiden and her mother.

8:52

εκλαιον δε παντες και εκοπτοντο αυτην ο δε ειπεν Μη κλαιετε ου γαρ απεθανεν αλλα καθευδει

And all were weeping, and bewailing her: but he said, Weep not; for she is not dead, but sleepeth.

8:53

Και κατεγελων αυτου ειδοτες οτι απεθανεν

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

8:54

Αυτος δε κρατησας της χειρος αυτης εφωνησεν λεγων Η Παις εγειρε

But he, taking her by the hand, called, saying, Maiden, arise.

8:55

και επεστρεψεν το πνευμα αυτης και ανεστη παραχρημα και διεταξεν αυτη δοθηναι φαγειν

And her spirit returned, and she rose up immediately: and he commanded that something be given her to eat.

8:56

και εξεστησαν οι γονεις αυτης ο δε παρηγγειλεν αυτοις μηδενι ειπειν το γεγονος

And her parents were amazed: but he charged them to tell no man what had been done.
