Lucas 8
Ang Salita ng Dios (Tagalog Contemporary Bible)
Mga Babaeng Tumutulong kay Jesus
8 Pagkatapos, nilibot ni Jesus ang mga bayan at mga nayon ng Galilea. Nangaral siya ng Magandang Balita tungkol sa paghahari ng Dios. Kasama niya ang 12 apostol 2 at ilang babaeng pinagaling niya sa sakit o pinalaya sa masasamang espiritu. Kabilang dito si Maria na taga-Magdala[a] na pinalaya niya mula sa pitong masasamang espiritu, 3 si Juana na asawa ni Cuza na katiwala ni Herodes, si Susana, at marami pang iba. Ang mga babaeng ito ay tumutulong sa mga pangangailangan nina Jesus mula sa mga ari-arian nila.
Ang Talinghaga tungkol sa Manghahasik(A)
4 Isang araw, nagdatingan ang maraming tao mula sa ibaʼt ibang bayan at lumapit kay Jesus. Ikinuwento niya sa kanila ang talinghaga na ito:
5 “May isang magsasakang naghasik ng binhi. Sa kanyang paghahasik, may mga binhing nahulog sa tabi ng daan, natapakan ito ng mga dumadaan at tinuka ng mga ibon. 6 May mga binhi namang nahulog sa mabatong lugar. Tumubo ang mga ito, pero madaling nalanta dahil sa kawalan ng tubig. 7 May mga binhi namang nahulog sa lupang may matitinik na damo. Sabay na tumubo ang mga binhi at mga damo, pero sa bandang huli ay natakpan ng mga damo ang mga tumubong binhi. 8 Ang iba namaʼy nahulog sa mabuting lupa. Tumubo ang mga ito at namunga nang napakarami.”[b] Pagkatapos, sinabi ni Jesus, “Kayong mga nakikinig, dapat nʼyo itong pag-isipan!”[c]
Ang Layunin ng mga Talinghaga(B)
9 Tinanong si Jesus ng mga tagasunod niya kung ano ang kahulugan ng talinghaga na iyon. 10 Sumagot si Jesus, “Ipinagkaloob sa inyo na malaman ang mga lihim tungkol sa paghahari ng Dios, ngunit sa ibaʼy ipinapahayag ito sa pamamagitan ng talinghaga, upang ‘tumingin man silaʼy hindi makakita, at makinig man silaʼy hindi makaunawa.’ ”[d]
Ang Kahulugan ng Talinghaga tungkol sa Manghahasik(C)
11 Isinalaysay ni Jesus kung ano ang kahulugan ng talinghaga na iyon: “Ang binhi ay ang salita ng Dios. 12 Ang tabi ng daan, kung saan nahulog ang ilang binhi ay ang mga taong nakinig ng salita ng Dios, ngunit dumating ang diyablo at kinuha iyon sa mga puso nila upang hindi sila sumampalataya at maligtas. 13 Ang mabatong lugar, kung saan nahulog ang ibang binhi ay ang mga taong nakinig ng salita ng Dios at masaya itong tinanggap. Ngunit hindi taimtim sa puso nila ang pagtanggap, kaya hindi tumagal ang kanilang pananampalataya. Pagdating ng mga pagsubok ay agad silang tumatalikod sa kanilang pananampalataya. 14 Ang lupang may matitinik na damo, kung saan nahulog ang iba pang binhi ay ang mga taong nakinig ng salita ng Dios. Ngunit sa katagalan, nadaig sila ng mga alalahanin sa buhay, kayamanan at kalayawan sa mundong ito. Kaya hindi sila lumago at hindi namunga. 15 Ngunit ang mabuting lupang hinasikan ng binhi ay ang mga taong nakikinig sa salita ng Dios, at iniingatan ito sa kanilang malinis at tapat na puso, at pinagsisikapang sundin hanggang sa silaʼy mamunga.”
Ang Aral Mula sa Ilaw(D)
16 Sinabi pa ni Jesus, “Walang taong nagsisindi ng ilaw at pagkatapos ay tatakpan ng palayok o ilalagay sa ilalim ng higaan. Sa halip, inilalagay ang ilaw sa patungan para magbigay-liwanag sa lahat ng pumapasok sa bahay. 17 Ganoon din naman, walang natatagong hindi mahahayag at walang lihim na hindi malalaman at mabubunyag.[e]
18 “Kaya makinig kayong mabuti sa sinasabi ko, dahil ang taong sumusunod sa narinig niyang katotohanan ay bibigyan pa ng pang-unawa. Ngunit ang taong hindi sumusunod sa katotohanan, kahit ang inaakala niyang nauunawaan niya ay kukunin pa sa kanya.”
Ang Ina at mga Kapatid ni Jesus(E)
19 Ngayon, pinuntahan si Jesus ng kanyang ina at mga kapatid, pero hindi sila makalapit sa kanya dahil sa dami ng tao. 20 Kaya may nagsabi kay Jesus, “Nasa labas po ang inyong ina at mga kapatid, at gusto kayong makita.” 21 Sumagot si Jesus, “Ang mga nakikinig at sumusunod sa salita ng Dios ang siya kong ina at mga kapatid.”
Pinatigil ni Jesus ang Malakas na Hangin at Alon(F)
22 Isang araw, sumakay ng bangka si Jesus kasama ang mga tagasunod niya. Sinabi niya sa kanila, “Tumawid tayo sa kabila ng lawa.” At ganoon nga ang ginawa nila. 23 Nang naglalayag na sila, nakatulog si Jesus. Maya-mayaʼy lumakas ang hangin at pinasok ng maraming tubig ang bangka nila, kaya nalagay sila sa panganib. 24 Nilapitan si Jesus ng mga tagasunod niya at ginising, “Guro![f] Guro! Lulubog na tayo!” Bumangon si Jesus at pinatigil ang malakas na hangin at ang malalaking alon. Tumigil ang mga ito at biglang kumalma ang panahon. 25 Pagkatapos, tinanong ni Jesus ang mga tagasunod niya, “Nasaan ang pananampalataya ninyo?” Namangha sila at natakot, at nag-usap-usap, “Sino kaya ito? Kahit ang hangin at ang alon ay inuutusan niya, at sinusunod siya!”
Pinagaling ni Jesus ang Taong Sinaniban ng Masamang Espiritu(G)
26 Nagpatuloy sila sa paglalayag hanggang sa makarating sila sa lupain ng mga Geraseno[g] na katapat ng Galilea. 27 Pagkababa ni Jesus sa bangka, sinalubong siya ng isang lalaking taga-roon na sinasaniban ng masasamang espiritu. Matagal na itong walang suot na damit at ayaw tumira sa bahay kundi sa mga kwebang libingan. 28 Nang makita niya si Jesus, sumigaw siya at lumuhod sa harapan ni Jesus. At sinabi niya nang malakas, “Ano ang pakialam mo sa akin, Jesus na Anak ng Kataas-taasang Dios? Nakikiusap ako sa iyo, huwag mo akong pahirapan!” 29 Sinabi niya ito dahil inutusan ni Jesus na lumabas ang masamang espiritu sa kanya. Matagal na siyang sinasaniban nito. At kahit tinatalian siya ng kadena sa kamay at paa at binabantayan, nilalagot niya ang kadena, at pinapapunta siya ng demonyo sa ilang. 30 Tinanong siya ni Jesus, “Ano ang pangalan mo?” Sagot niya, “Kawan,” dahil maraming masamang espiritu ang pumasok sa kanya. 31 Nagmakaawa ang masasamang espiritu kay Jesus na huwag silang papuntahin sa kailaliman at parusahan doon. 32 Sa di-kalayuan ay may malaking kawan ng mga baboy na nanginginain sa gilid ng burol. Nagmakaawa ang masasamang espiritu kay Jesus na payagan silang pumasok sa mga baboy, at pinayagan naman sila ni Jesus. 33 Kaya lumabas ang masasamang espiritu sa lalaki at pumasok sa mga baboy. Nagtakbuhan ang mga baboy pababa ng burol, nagtuloy-tuloy sa lawa at nalunod.
34 Nang makita iyon ng mga tagapag-alaga ng mga baboy, tumakbo sila patungo sa bayan at sa mga karatig nayon at ipinamalita ang nangyari. 35 Kaya pumunta roon ang mga tao para tingnan ang nangyari. Pagdating nila kay Jesus, nakita nila ang taong sinaniban dati ng masasamang espiritu na nakaupo sa paanan ni Jesus, nakadamit at matino na ang pag-iisip. At natakot ang mga tao. 36 Ikinuwento sa kanila ng mga nakakita kung paano gumaling ang lalaking sinaniban ng masasamang espiritu. 37 Nakiusap ang lahat ng Geraseno[h] kay Jesus na umalis sa kanilang bayan dahil takot na takot sila. Kaya muling sumakay si Jesus sa bangka upang bumalik sa pinanggalingan niya. 38 Nakiusap sa kanya ang lalaking gumaling na isama siya. Pero hindi pumayag si Jesus. Sinabi niya, 39 “Umuwi ka na sa inyo at sabihin mo sa kanila ang ginawa sa iyo ng Dios.” Umuwi nga ang lalaki at ipinamalita sa buong bayan ang ginawa sa kanya ni Jesus.
Ang Anak ni Jairus at ang Babaeng Dinudugo(H)
40 Pagdating ni Jesus sa kabila ng lawa, masaya siyang tinanggap ng mga tao dahil hinihintay siya ng lahat. 41 Dumating naman ang isang lalaking namumuno sa sambahan ng mga Judio, na ang pangalan ay Jairus. Lumuhod siya sa harap ni Jesus at nakiusap na kung maaari ay pumunta siya sa bahay niya, 42 dahil naghihingalo ang kaisa-isa niyang anak na babae na 12 taong gulang.
Habang papunta si Jesus sa bahay ni Jairus, nagsisiksikan sa kanya ang mga tao. 43 May isang babae roon na 12 taon nang dinudugo at hindi mapagaling ng kahit sino. [Naubos na lahat ang mga ari-arian niya sa pagpapagamot.] 44 Nang makalapit siya sa likuran ni Jesus, hinipo niya ang laylayan[i] ng damit ni Jesus, at biglang tumigil ang kanyang pagdurugo. 45 Nagtanong si Jesus, “Sino ang humipo sa akin?” Nang walang umamin, sinabi ni Pedro, “Guro, alam nʼyo naman po na napapaligiran kayo ng maraming taong nagsisiksikan papalapit sa inyo.” 46 Pero sinabi ni Jesus, “May humipo sa akin, dahil naramdaman kong may kapangyarihang lumabas sa akin.” 47 Nang malaman ng babae na hindi pala lihim kay Jesus ang ginawa niya, lumapit siyang nanginginig sa takot at lumuhod sa harap ni Jesus. Pagkatapos, sinabi niya sa harapan ng lahat kung bakit niya hinipo si Jesus, at kung paanong gumaling siya kaagad. 48 Sinabi sa kanya ni Jesus, “Anak, pinagaling[j] ka ng iyong pananampalataya. Umuwi kang mapayapa.”
49 Habang kausap pa ni Jesus ang babae, dumating ang isang lalaki galing sa bahay ni Jairus. Sinabi niya kay Jairus, “Patay na po ang anak ninyo. Huwag nʼyo nang abalahin ang guro.” 50 Nang marinig iyon ni Jesus, sinabi niya kay Jairus, “Huwag kang matakot. Manampalataya ka lang at mabubuhay siyang muli.” 51 Pagdating nila sa bahay, wala siyang pinayagang sumama sa loob, maliban kina Pedro, Santiago at Juan, at ang mga magulang ng bata. 52 Nag-iiyakan ang mga taong naroroon, kaya sinabi ni Jesus sa kanila, “Huwag kayong umiyak. Hindi patay ang bata kundi natutulog lang.” 53 Pinagtawanan nila si Jesus dahil alam nilang patay na ang bata. 54 Pero hinawakan ni Jesus ang kamay ng bata at sinabi sa kanya, “Nene, bumangon ka.” 55 At noon din ay bumalik ang kanyang espiritu at bumangon siya agad. At iniutos ni Jesus na pakainin ang bata. 56 Labis na namangha ang mga magulang ng bata. Pero pinagbilinan sila ni Jesus na huwag sabihin kaninuman ang nangyari.

Luke 8
King James Version
8 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 certain women, which had been healed of evil spirits and infirmities, Mary called Magdalene, out of whom went seven devils,
3 And Joanna the wife of Chuza Herod's steward, and Susanna, and many others, which ministered unto him of their substance.
4 And 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; that seeing they might not see, and hearing they might not understand.
11 Now 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 fall 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 an honest and good heart, having heard the word, keep it, and bring forth fruit with patience.
16 No man, when he hath lighted a candle, covereth it with a vessel, or putteth it under a bed; but setteth it on a candlestick, that they which enter in may see the light.
17 For nothing is secret, that shall not be made manifest; neither any thing hid, that shall not be known and come abroad.
18 Take heed therefore how ye hear: for whosoever hath, to him shall be given; and whosoever hath not, from him shall be taken even that which he seemeth to have.
19 Then 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 which hear the word of God, and do it.
22 Now 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.
23 But 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.
24 And 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.
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.
26 And they arrived at the country of the Gadarenes, which is over against Galilee.
27 And 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.
28 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 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.)
30 And Jesus asked him, saying, What is thy name? And he said, Legion: because many devils were entered into him.
31 And they besought him that he would not command them to go out into the deep.
32 And 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.
33 Then 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.
34 When they that fed them saw what was done, they fled, and went and told it in the city and in the country.
35 Then 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.
37 Then 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.
38 Now the man out of whom the devils were departed besought him that he might be with him: but Jesus sent him away, saying,
39 Return 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.
40 And it came to pass, that, when Jesus was returned, the people gladly received 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 that he would come into his house:
42 For he had one only daughter, about twelve years of age, and she lay a dying. But as he went the people thronged him.
43 And a woman having an issue of blood twelve years, which had spent all her living upon physicians, neither could be healed of any,
44 Came behind him, and touched the border of his garment: and immediately her issue of blood stanched.
45 And 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?
46 And Jesus said, Somebody hath touched me: for I perceive that virtue is gone out of me.
47 And 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.
48 And he said unto her, Daughter, be of good comfort: 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 to him, Thy daughter is dead; trouble not the Master.
50 But when Jesus heard it, he answered him, saying, Fear not: believe only, and she shall be made whole.
51 And 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.
52 And all wept, and bewailed her: but he said, Weep not; she is not dead, but sleepeth.
53 And they laughed him to scorn, knowing that she was dead.
54 And he put them all out, and took her by the hand, and called, saying, Maid, arise.
55 And her spirit came again, and she arose straightway: and he commanded to give her meat.
56 And her parents were astonished: but he charged them that they should tell no man what was done.
Luke 8
Christian Standard Bible
Many Women Support Christ’s Work
8 Afterward he was traveling from one town and village to another,(A) preaching and telling the good news of the kingdom of God.(B) The Twelve were with him, 2 and also some women who had been healed of evil spirits and sicknesses:(C) Mary, called Magdalene (seven demons had come out(D) of her); 3 Joanna the wife of Chuza, Herod’s steward; Susanna; and many others who were supporting them from their possessions.
The Parable of the Sower
4 As a large crowd was gathering, and people were coming to Jesus from every town, he said in a parable,(E) 5 “A sower went out to sow his seed. As he sowed, some seed fell along the path; it was trampled on, and the birds of the sky devoured it. 6 Other seed fell on the rock; when it grew up, it withered away, since it lacked moisture. 7 Other seed fell among thorns; the thorns grew up with it and choked it. 8 Still other seed fell on good ground; when it grew up, it produced fruit: a hundred times what was sown.”(F) As he said this, he called out, “Let anyone who has ears to hear listen.”(G)
Why Jesus Used Parables
9 Then his disciples asked him, “What does this parable mean?” (H) 10 So he said, “The secrets of the kingdom of God have been given for you(I) to know, but to the rest it is in parables, so that
The Parable of the Sower Explained
11 “This is the meaning of the parable:(K) The seed is the word of God.(L) 12 The seed along the path are those who have heard and then the devil comes and takes away the word from their hearts, so that they may not believe and be saved. 13 And the seed on the rock are those who, when they hear, receive the word with joy. Having no root, these believe for a while and fall away in a time of testing.(M) 14 As for the seed that fell among thorns, these are the ones who, when they have heard, go on their way and are choked with worries, riches, and pleasures of life,(N) and produce no mature fruit. 15 But the seed in the good ground—these are the ones who, having heard the word with an honest and good heart, hold on to it and by enduring,(O) produce fruit.
Using Your Light
16 “No one, after lighting a lamp,(P) covers it with a basket or puts it under a bed, but puts it on a lampstand so that those who come in may see its light.(Q) 17 For nothing is concealed that won’t be revealed, and nothing hidden that won’t be made known and brought to light.(R) 18 Therefore take care how you listen. For whoever has, more will be given to him; (S) and whoever does not have, even what he thinks he has will be taken away from him.”
True Relationships
19 Then his mother and brothers(T) came to him,(U) but they could not meet with him because of the crowd. 20 He was told, “Your mother and your brothers are standing outside, wanting to see you.”
21 But he replied to them, “My mother and my brothers are those who hear and do the word of God.”(V)
Wind and Waves Obey Jesus
22 One day he and his disciples got into a boat,(W) and he told them, “Let’s cross over to the other side of the lake.”(X) So they set out, 23 and as they were sailing he fell asleep. Then a fierce windstorm came down on the lake; they were being swamped and were in danger. 24 They came and woke him up, saying, “Master, Master, we’re going to die!”
Then he got up and rebuked the wind and the raging waves. So they ceased, and there was a calm.(Y) 25 He said to them, “Where is your faith?”
They were fearful and amazed, asking one another, “Who then is this?(Z) He commands even the winds and the waves, and they obey him!”
Demons Driven Out by Jesus
26 Then they sailed to the region of the Gerasenes,[b](AA) which is opposite Galilee. 27 When he got out on land, a demon-possessed man from the town met him. For a long time he had worn no clothes and did not stay in a house but in the tombs. 28 When he saw Jesus, he cried out,(AB) fell down before him, and said in a loud voice, “What do you have to do with me,(AC) Jesus, Son of the Most High God?(AD) I beg you, don’t torment me!” 29 For he had commanded the unclean spirit to come out of the man. Many times it had seized him, and though he was guarded, bound by chains and shackles, he would snap the restraints and be driven by the demon into deserted places.
30 “What is your name?” Jesus asked him.
“Legion,”(AE) he said, because many demons had entered him. 31 And they begged him not to banish them to the abyss.(AF)
32 A large herd of pigs was there, feeding on the hillside. The demons begged him to permit them to enter the pigs, and he gave them permission. 33 The demons came out of the man and entered the pigs, and the herd rushed down the steep bank into the lake and drowned.
34 When the men who tended them saw what had happened, they ran off and reported it in the town and in the countryside. 35 Then people went out to see what had happened. They came to Jesus and found the man the demons had departed from, sitting at Jesus’s feet,(AG) dressed and in his right mind. And they were afraid. 36 Meanwhile, the eyewitnesses reported to them how the demon-possessed man was delivered.(AH) 37 Then all the people of the Gerasene region[c] asked him to leave them,(AI) because they were gripped by great fear. So getting into the boat, he returned.
38 The man from whom the demons had departed begged him earnestly to be with him. But he sent him away and said, 39 “Go back to your home, and tell all that God has done for you.” And off he went, proclaiming throughout the town how much Jesus had done for him.
A Girl Restored and a Woman Healed
40 When Jesus returned, the crowd welcomed him,(AJ) for they were all expecting him.(AK) 41 Just then, a man named Jairus came. He was a leader of the synagogue.(AL) He fell down at Jesus’s feet and pleaded with him to come to his house, 42 because he had an only daughter(AM) about twelve years old, and she was dying.
While he was going, the crowds were nearly crushing him.(AN) 43 A woman suffering from bleeding(AO) for twelve years,(AP) who had spent all she had on doctors[d] and yet could not be healed by any, 44 approached from behind and touched the end of his robe.(AQ) Instantly her bleeding stopped.
45 “Who touched me?” Jesus asked.
When they all denied it, Peter[e] said, “Master,(AR) the crowds are hemming you in and pressing against you.”[f]
46 “Someone did touch me,” said Jesus. “I know that power has gone out from me.”(AS) 47 When the woman saw that she was discovered, she came trembling and fell down before him. In the presence of all the people, she declared the reason she had touched him and how she was instantly healed. 48 “Daughter,” he said to her, “your faith has saved you.[g] Go in peace.”(AT)
49 While he was still speaking,(AU) someone came from the synagogue leader’s house and said, “Your daughter is dead. Don’t bother(AV) the teacher(AW) anymore.”
50 When Jesus heard it, he answered him, “Don’t be afraid. Only believe, and she will be saved.”[h] 51 After he came to the house, he let no one enter with him except Peter, John, James,(AX) and the child’s father and mother. 52 Everyone was crying(AY) and mourning for her.(AZ) But he said, “Stop crying, because she is not dead but asleep.”(BA)
53 They laughed at him, because they knew she was dead. 54 So he[i] took her by the hand(BB) and called out, “Child, get up!”(BC) 55 Her spirit returned,(BD) and she got up at once. Then he gave orders that she be given something to eat. 56 Her parents were astounded, but he instructed them to tell no one what had happened.(BE)
