Jesus

And when a very great multitude was gathered together and hastened out of the cities, unto him, he spoke by a similitude.

And other some fell upon good ground and, being sprung up, yielded fruit a hundredfold. Saying these things, he cried out: He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.

And his disciples asked him what this parable might be.

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

And his mother and brethren came unto him: and they could not come at him for the crowd.

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

Who answering, said to them: My mother and my brethren are they who hear the word of God and do it.

And it came to pass on a certain day that he went into a little ship with his disciples. And he said to them: Let us go over to the other side of the lake. And they launched forth.

And when they were sailing, he slept. And there came down a storm of wind upon the lake: and they were filled and were in danger.

And they came and awaked him, saying: Master, we perish. But he arising, rebuked the wind and the rage of the water. And it ceased: and there was a calm.

And he said to them: Where is your faith? Who being afraid, wondered, saying one to another: Who is this (think you), that he commandeth both the winds and the sea: and they obey him?

And when he was come forth to the land, there met him a certain man who had a devil now a very long time. And he wore no clothes: neither did he abide in a house, but in the sepulchres.

And when he saw Jesus, he fell down before him. And crying out with a loud voice, he said: What have I to do with thee, Jesus, Son of the most high God? I beseech thee, do not torment me.

For he commanded the unclean spirit to go out of the man. For many times it seized him: and he was bound with chains and kept in fetters: and breaking the bonds, he was driven by the devil into the deserts.

And Jesus asked him, saying: What is thy name? But he said: Legion. Because many devils were entered into him.

And they besought him that he would not command them to go into the abyss.

And there was there a 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.

And they went out to see what was done. And they came to Jesus and found the man out of whom the devils were departed, sitting at his feet, clothed and in his right mind. And they were afraid.

And all the multitude of the country of the Gerasens besought him to depart from them: for they were taken with great fear. And he, going up into the ship, returned back again.

Now the man out of whom the devils were departed besought him that he might be with him. But Jesus sent him away, saying:

Return to thy house and tell how great things God hath done to thee. And he went through the whole city, publishing how great things Jesus had done to him.

And it came to pass that when Jesus was returned, the multitude received him: for they were all waiting for him.

And behold there came a man whose name was Jairus: and he was a ruler of the synagogue. And he fell down at the feet of Jesus, beseeching him that he would come into his house:

For he had an only daughter, almost twelve years old, and she was dying. And it happened as he went that he was thronged by the multitudes.

She came behind him and touched the hem of his garment: and immediately the issue of her blood stopped.
