Luke 8:1–25
And it came to pass afterward, that he went throughout every city and village, preaching and shewing the glad tidings of the kingdom of God: and the twelve were with him, 2 And acertain women, which had been healed of evil spirits and infirmities, Mary called bMagdalene, cout of whom went seven devils, 3 And dJoanna the wife of Chuza eHerod’s fsteward, and Susanna, and many others, which aministered unto him of their substance.
4 gAnd when much people were gathered together, and were come to him out of every city, he spake by a parable: 5 A sower went out to sow his seed: and as he sowed, some fell by the way side; and it was trodden down, and the fowls of the air devoured it. 6 And some fell upon a rock; and as soon as it was sprung up, it withered away, because it lacked moisture. 7 And some fell among thorns; and the thorns sprang up with it, and choked it. 8 And other fell on good ground, and sprang up, and bare fruit an hundredfold. And when he had said these things, he cried, He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.
9 And his disciples asked him, saying, What might this parable be? 10 And he said, Unto you it is given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of God: but to others in parables; hthat seeing they might not see, and hearing they might not understand. 11 iNow the parable is this: The seed is the word of God. 12 Those by the way side are they that hear; then cometh the devil, and taketh away the word out of their hearts, lest they should believe and be saved. 13 They on the rock are they, which, when they hear, receive the word with joy; and these have no root, which for a while believe, and in time of temptation kfall away. 14 And that which fell among thorns are they, which, when they have heard, go forth, and are choked with cares and riches and pleasures of this life, and bring no fruit to perfection. 15 But that on the good ground are they, which in lan honest and good heart, having heard the word, keep it, and bring forth fruit mwith patience.
16 nNo man, when he hath lighted a candle, covereth it with a ovessel, or putteth it under a bed; but setteth it on a candlestick, that they which enter in may see the light. 17 pFor nothing is secret, that shall not be made manifest; neither any thing hid, that shall not be known and come abroad. 18 qTake heed therefore how ye hear: rfor whosoever hath, to him shall be given; and whosoever hath not, from him shall be taken even that which he ||seemeth to have.
19 sThen came to him his mother and his brethren, and could not come at him for the press. 20 And it was told him by certain which said, Thy mother and thy brethren stand without, desiring to see thee. 21 And he answered and said unto them, My mother and my brethren are these twhich hear the word of God, and do it.
22 uNow 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 wthe lake. And they launched forth. 23 But as they sailed he fell asleep: and there came down a storm of wind on wthe lake; and they were filled with water, and xwere in jeopardy. 24 And they came to him, and awoke him, saying, yMaster, master, we perish. Then he arose, and rebuked the wind and the zraging of the water: and they ceased, and there was a calm. 25 And 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.
