1 不久， 耶稣周游各城各村讲道， 宣扬 神的国的福音， 和他在一起的有十二个门徒，
2 还有几个蒙了医治、脱离污鬼与疾病的妇女， 其中有称为抹大拉的马利亚， 曾有七个鬼从她身上赶出来；
3 有希律的管家古撒的妻子约亚拿， 又有苏珊娜， 和许多别的妇女， 她们都用自己的财物供给耶稣和门徒。
4 当时有许多人聚在一起， 还有人从各城来到耶稣那里， 他就用比喻说：
5 "有一个撒种的出去撒种， 撒的时候， 有的落在路旁， 被人践踏， 或给空中的小鸟吃掉。
6 有的落在石头地上， 一长出来就枯萎了， 因为得不着滋润。
7 有的落在荆棘丛中， 荆棘也一齐生长， 把它挤住了。
8 有的落在好土里， 就生长起来， 结出百倍的果实。"他说了这些话， 就大声说： "有耳可听的， 就应当听！ "
9 门徒问他这比喻是什么意思。
10 他说： " 神的国的奥秘， 只给你们知道， 对别人就用比喻， 叫他们看却看不见， 听却听不明白。
11 "这比喻是说， 种子是 神的道，
12 那落在路旁的， 就是人听了， 魔鬼随即来到， 从他们心里把道夺去， 恐怕他们相信就得救了。
13 那落在石头地上的， 就是人听了， 欢欢喜喜地接受， 但是没有根， 不过是暂时相信， 一旦遭遇试炼， 就倒退了。
14 那落在荆棘里的， 就是人听了， 走开以后， 被今世的忧虑、财富和宴乐挤住了， 结不出成熟的子粒来。
15 但那落在好土里的， 就是人用诚实良善的心来听， 把道持守住， 忍耐着结出果实。
16 "没有人点灯用器皿盖上， 或放在床底下， 而是放在灯台上， 叫进来的人都看得见光。
17 因为没有什么隐藏的事不被显明， 也没有什么掩盖的事不被人知道而暴露出来。
18 所以你们应当留心怎样听， 因为凡是有的， 还要给他； 凡是没有的， 连他自以为有的， 也要拿去。"
19 耶稣的母亲和弟弟来到他那里， 因为人多， 不能到他跟前。
20 有人转告耶稣： "你母亲和弟弟站在外面要见你。"
21 他回答他们： "听了 神的道而遵行的人， 才是我的母亲， 我的弟兄。"
22 有一天， 耶稣和门徒上了船， 他对他们说： "我们渡到海那边去吧。"他们就开了船。
23 船行的时候， 他睡着了。海上忽然起了狂风， 他们全身湿透， 非常危险。
24 门徒来叫醒耶稣， 说： "主啊！ 主啊！ 我们没命了！ "他醒过来， 斥责风浪， 风浪就止息、平静了。
25 耶稣对他们说： "你们的信心在哪里？"他们又惧怕、又希奇， 彼此说： "这到底是谁？他吩咐风浪， 连风浪也听从他。"
26 船到了格拉森人的地区， 正在加利利对面，
27 耶稣一上岸， 就有城里一个被鬼附着的人， 迎面而来。这人已经很久不穿衣服， 不住在家里， 只住在坟墓里。
28 他一见耶稣， 就俯伏喊叫， 大声说： "至高 神的儿子耶稣， 我跟你有什么关系呢？求你不要使我受苦。"
29 因为耶稣已经吩咐这污灵从那人身上出来。原来这污灵屡次抓住那人； 那人被铁链和脚链捆锁， 而且有人看管， 他竟挣断锁链， 被鬼赶入旷野。
30 耶稣问他： "你叫什么名字？"他说： "群。"因为进到那人里面的鬼很多。
31 他们求耶稣， 不要赶他们进入无底坑。
32 那里有一大群猪正在山上吃东西。他们求耶稣准他们进入猪群。耶稣准许了，
33 鬼就从那人身上出来， 进入猪群， 猪群闯下山崖， 掉在海里淹死了。
34 放猪的看见所发生的事就逃跑， 到城里和各乡村把这事传开。
35 众人就出来看发生了什么事。来到耶稣那里， 看见鬼已经离开的那人， 穿着衣服， 神志清醒， 坐在耶稣脚前， 他们就害怕。
36 当时看见的人， 把被鬼附过的人怎样得到医治， 说给他们听。
37 格拉森一带的人， 都要求耶稣离开他们， 因为他们大大惧怕。他就上船回去了。
38 鬼已经离开的那人求耶稣， 要跟他在一起； 但耶稣打发他回去， 说：
39 "你回家去， 述说 神为你作了怎样的事。"他就走遍全城， 传讲耶稣为他作了怎样的事。
40 耶稣回来的时候， 众人欢迎他， 因为大家都在等着他。
41 那时， 有一个人来了， 名叫叶鲁， 他是一位会堂主管。他俯伏在耶稣脚前， 求他往他家里去，
42 因为他的独生女， 约十二岁， 快要死了。耶稣去的时候， 群众拥挤着他。
43 有一个女人， 患了十二年的血漏病， 在医生手里花尽了全部养生的（有些抄本无"在医生手里花尽了全部养生的"一句）， 没有一个能医好她。
44 她从后面挤来， 一摸耶稣的衣裳繸子， 血就立刻止住。
45 耶稣说： "摸我的是谁？"众人都不承认。彼得说： "主啊， 众人都拥挤着你。"
46 耶稣说： "必定有人摸我， 因为我觉得有能力从我身上出去。"
47 那女人见不能隐瞒， 就战战兢兢地过来， 向他俯伏， 把摸他的缘故， 和怎样立刻得到医治， 在众人面前说出来。
48 耶稣对她说： "女儿， 你的信使你痊愈了， 平安地去吧！ "
49 耶稣还在说话的时候， 有人从会堂主管家里来， 说： "你的女儿死了， 不必再劳动老师了。"
50 耶稣听见就对他说： "不要怕， 只要信， 她必得痊愈。"
51 到了那家， 除了彼得、约翰、雅各和女孩的父母以外， 他不准任何人同他进屋里去。
52 众人都在痛哭哀号， 他说： "不要哭！ 她不是死了， 而是睡着了。"
53 他们明知女孩已经死了， 就嘲笑他。
54 他进去拉着女孩的手， 叫她说： "孩子， 起来！ "
55 她的灵魂回来了， 她就立刻起来。耶稣吩咐给她东西吃。
56 她父母非常惊奇。耶稣嘱咐他们不要把他所作的事告诉人。
1 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, 2 and certain women who had been healed of evil spirits and infirmities: Mary that was called Magdalene, from whom seven demons had gone out, 3 and Joanna the wife of Chuzas Herod’s steward, and Susanna, and many others, who ministered unto them of their substance.
4 And when a great multitude came together, and they of every city resorted unto him, he spake by a parable: 5 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. 6 And other fell on the rock; and as soon as it grew, it withered away, because it had no moisture. 7 And other fell amidst the thorns; and the thorns grew with it, and choked it. 8 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.
9 And his disciples asked him what this parable might be. 10 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. 11 Now the parable is this: The seed is the word of God. 12 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. 13 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. 14 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. 15 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.
16 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. 17 For nothing is hid, that shall not be made manifest; nor anything secret, that shall not be known and come to light. 18 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.
19 And there came to him his mother and brethren, and they could not come at him for the crowd. 20 And it was told him, Thy mother and thy brethren stand without, desiring to see thee. 21 But he answered and said unto them, My mother and my brethren are these that hear the word of God, and do it.
22 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. 23 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. 24 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. 25 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?
26 And they arrived at the country of the Gerasenes, which is over against Galilee. 27 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. 28 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. 29 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. 30 And Jesus asked him, What is thy name? And he said, Legion; for many demons were entered into him. 31 And they entreated him that he would not command them to depart into the abyss. 32 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. 33 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. 34 And when they that fed them saw what had come to pass, they fled, and told it in the city and in the country. 35 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. 36 And they that saw it told them how he that was possessed with demons was made whole. 37 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. 38 But the man from whom the demons were gone out prayed him that he might be with him: but he sent him away, saying, 39 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.
40 And as Jesus returned, the multitude welcomed him; for they were all waiting for him. 41 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; 42 for he had an only daughter, about twelve years of age, and she was dying. But as he went the multitudes thronged him.
43 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, 44 came behind him, and touched the border of his garment: and immediately the issue of her blood stanched. 45 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. 46 But Jesus said, Some one did touch me; for I perceived that power had gone forth from me. 47 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. 48 And he said unto her, Daughter, thy faith hath made thee whole; go in peace.
49 While he yet spake, there cometh one from the ruler of the synagogue’s house, saying, Thy daughter is dead; trouble not the Teacher. 50 But Jesus hearing it, answered him, Fear not: only believe, and she shall be made whole. 51 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. 52 And all were weeping, and bewailing her: but he said, Weep not; for she is not dead, but sleepeth. 53 And they laughed him to scorn, knowing that she was dead. 54 But he, taking her by the hand, called, saying, Maiden, arise. 55 And her spirit returned, and she rose up immediately: and he commanded that something be given her to eat. 56 And her parents were amazed: but he charged them to tell no man what had been done.
