1Dan terjadilah sesudah itu, bahwaa Yesus pergi melalui setiap kota dan kampung, mengkhutbahkan dan menunjukkan berita baik akan kerajaan Allah: dan dua belas orang itu berada bersamanya,
2Dan para perempuan tertentu, yang telah disembuhkan daripada roh-roh jahat dan kedaifan, Maria yang dipanggil Magdalena, iaitu daripadanya diusir tujuh setan,
3Dan Yohana isteri kepada Khuza, bendahara Herodes, dan Susana, dan banyak yang lain, yang melayani kepadanya kekayaan mereka.
4Dan ketika banyak orang telah berkumpul bersama, dan telah datang kepadanya dari setiap kota, dia berbicara melalui perumpamaan:
5Seorang penabur keluar untuk menabur benihnya: dan sementara dia menabur, sesetengah daripadanya jatuh di pinggir jalan; dan ia diinjak-injak, lalu burung di udara memakannya.
6Dan sesetengah daripadanya jatuh ke atas batu; dan sebaik sahaja ia bertumbuh, ia menjadi layu, kerana ia kekurangan kelembapan.
7Dan sesetengah daripadanya jatuh di antara semak duri; dan semak duri itu bertumbuh bersama-samanya, lalu menghimpitnya.
8Dan yang lain jatuh pada tanah yang baik, dan bertumbuh, dan menghasilkan buah seratus kali ganda. Dan sesudah dia mengatakan itu, dia berseru, dia yang ada telinga untuk mendengar, biar dia dengar.
9Dan murid-muridnya bertanya kepadanya, dengan berkata, Apakah mungkin perumpamaan ini?
10Dan dia berkata, Kepada kalian ia dikurniakan untuk mengenal misteri-misteri kerajaan Allah: tetapi kepada yang lain perumpamaan; supaya biarpun melihat mereka tidak dapat melihat, dan biarpun mendengar mereka tidak dapat faham.
11Sekarang perumpamaan itu adalah sedemikian: Benih itu firman Allah.
12Yang berada di pinggir jalan ialah mereka yang mendengar; lalu datanglah iblis, dan mengambil firman keluar daripada hati mereka, supaya jangan mereka percaya dan diselamatkan.
13Yang berada di atas batu ialah mereka yang, setelah mendengar, menerima firman dengan sukacita; dan mereka tidak berakar, yang percaya untuk seketika, lalu pada masa pencubaan murtad.
14Dan yang jatuh di antara semak duri ialah mereka yang, setelah mendengar, pergi dan dihimpit oleh kekhuatiran dan kekayaan dan kenikmatan kehidupan ini, dan tidak membawa apa pun buah kepada kesempurnaan.
15Tetapi yang berada di tanah yang baik ialah mereka yang, dengan hati yang jujur dan yang baik, setelah mendengar firman, memegangnya, dan menghasilkan buah dengan kesabaran.
16Tidak sesiapa pun, apabila telah menyalakan lilin, menutupinya dengan bejana, atau meletakkannya di bawah katil; tetapi meletakkannya pada kaki dian, supaya mereka yang masuk dapat nampak cahaya itu.
17Sebab tiada apa yang rahsia yang tidak akan dinyatakan; dan juga tiada apa yang disembunyikan yang tidak akan diketahui dan disebarkan.
18Maka, ambil pedulilah bagaimana kalian mendengar: sebab sesiapa yang mempunyai, kepadanya akan diberi; dan sesiapa yang tidak mempunyai, daripadanya akan diambil apa pun yang dianggap ada padanya.
19Kemudian datanglah kepada Yesus ibunya dan saudara-saudaranya, dan tidak dapat mendekatinya kerana kesesakan orang.
20Dan itu diberitahu kepadanya oleh salah seorang yang berkata, Ibumu dan saudara-saudaramu berdiri di luar, dan harap untuk bertemu denganmu.
21Dan Yesus berjawab dan berkata kepada mereka, Ibuku dan saudara-saudaraku ialah mereka ini yang mendengar firman Allah, dan melakukannya.
22Now it came to pass on a certain day, that he went into a ship with his disciples: and he said unto them, Let us go over unto the other side of the lake. And they launched forth.
23But as they sailed he fell asleep: and there came down a storm of wind on the lake; and they were filled with water, and were in jeopardy.
24And they came to him, and awoke him, saying, Master, master, we perish. Then he arose, and rebuked the wind and the raging of the water: and they ceased, and there was a calm.
25And he said unto them, Where is your faith? And they being afraid wondered, saying one to another, What manner of man is this! for he commandeth even the winds and water, and they obey him.
26And they arrived at the country of the Gadarenes, which is over against Galilee.
27And when he went forth to land, there met him out of the city a certain man, which had devils long time, and ware no clothes, neither abode in any house, but in the tombs.
28When 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 God most high? I beseech thee, torment me not.
29(For he had commanded the unclean spirit to come out of the man. For oftentimes it had caught him: and he was kept bound with chains and in fetters; and he brake the bands, and was driven of the devil into the wilderness.)
30And Jesus asked him, saying, What is thy name? And he said, Legion: because many devils were entered into him.
31And they besought him that he would not command them to go out into the deep.
32And there was there an herd of many swine feeding on the mountain: and they besought him that he would suffer them to enter into them. And he suffered them.
33Then went the devils out of the man, and entered into the swine: and the herd ran violently down a steep place into the lake, and were choked.
34When they that fed them saw what was done, they fled, and went and told it in the city and in the country.
35Then they went out to see what was done; and came to Jesus, and found the man, out of whom the devils were departed, sitting at the feet of Jesus, clothed, and in his right mind: and they were afraid.
36 They also which saw it told them by what means he that was possessed of the devils was healed.
37Then the whole multitude of the country of the Gadarenes round about besought him to depart from them; for they were taken with great fear: and he went up into the ship, and returned back again.
38Now the man out of whom the devils were departed besought him that he might be with him: but Jesus sent him away, saying,
39Return to thine own house, and shew how great things God hath done unto thee. And he went his way, and published throughout the whole city how great things Jesus had done unto him.
40And it came to pass, that, when Jesus was returned, the people gladly received him: for they were all waiting for him.
41And, 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 that he would come into his house:
42For he had one only daughter, about twelve years of age, and she lay a dying. But as he went the people thronged him.
43And a woman having an issue of blood twelve years, which had spent all her living upon physicians, neither could be healed of any,
44Came behind him, and touched the border of his garment: and immediately her issue of blood stanched.
45And Jesus said, Who touched me? When all denied, Peter and they that were with him said, Master, the multitude throng thee and press thee, and sayest thou, Who touched me?
46And Jesus said, Somebody hath touched me: for I perceive that virtue is gone out of me.
47And when the woman saw that she was not hid, she came trembling, and falling down before him, she declared unto him before all the people for what cause she had touched him, and how she was healed immediately.
48And he said unto her, Daughter, be of good comfort: thy faith hath made thee whole; go in peace.
49While he yet spake, there cometh one from the ruler of the synagogue's house, saying to him, Thy daughter is dead; trouble not the Master.
50But when Jesus heard it, he answered him, saying, Fear not: believe only, and she shall be made whole.
51And when he came into the house, he suffered no man to go in, save Peter, and James, and John, and the father and the mother of the maiden.
52And all wept, and bewailed her: but he said, Weep not; she is not dead, but sleepeth.
53And they laughed him to scorn, knowing that she was dead.
54And he put them all out, and took her by the hand, and called, saying, Maid, arise.
55And her spirit came again, and she arose straightway: and he commanded to give her meat.
56And her parents were astonished: but he charged them that they should tell no man what was done.
