1 И҆ бы́сть посе́мъ, и҆ то́й прохожда́ше сквозѣ̀ гра́ды и҆ вє́си, проповѣ́дꙋѧ и҆ бл҃говѣствꙋ́ѧ црⷭ҇твїе бж҃їе: и҆ ѻ҆бана́десѧте съ ни́мъ,
1 Soon afterwards, he went about through cities and villages, preaching and bringing the good news of God’s Kingdom. With him were the twelve,
2 и҆ жєны̀ нѣ̑кїѧ, ꙗ҆̀же бѧ́хꙋ и҆сцѣлє́ны ѿ дꙋхѡ́въ ѕлы́хъ и҆ недꙋ̑гъ: марі́а нарица́емаѧ магдали́на, и҆з̾ неѧ́же бѣсѡ́въ се́дмь и҆зы́де,
2 and certain women who had been healed of evil spirits and infirmities: Mary who was called Magdalene, from whom seven demons had gone out;
3 и҆ і҆ѡа́нна жена̀ хꙋза́нѧ, приста́вника и҆́рѡдова, и҆ сꙋса́нна, и҆ и҆́ны мнѡ́ги, ꙗ҆̀же слꙋжа́хꙋ є҆мꙋ̀ ѿ и҆мѣ́нїй свои́хъ.
3 and Joanna, the wife of Chuzas, Herod’s steward; Susanna; and many others who served them from their possessions.
4 Разꙋмѣва́ющꙋ же наро́дꙋ мно́гꙋ, и҆ ѿ всѣ́хъ градѡ́въ грѧдꙋ́щымъ къ немꙋ̀, речѐ при́тчꙋ:
4 When a great multitude came together and people from every city were coming to him, he spoke by a parable:
5 и҆зы́де сѣ́ѧй сѣ́ѧти сѣ́мене своегѡ̀: и҆ є҆гда̀ сѣ́ѧше, ѻ҆́во падѐ при пꙋтѝ, и҆ попра́но бы́сть, и҆ пти́цы небє́сныѧ позоба́ша є҆̀:
5 “The farmer went out to sow his seed. As he sowed, some fell along the road, and it was trampled under foot, and the birds of the sky devoured it.
6 а҆ дрꙋго́е падѐ на ка́мени, и҆ прозѧ́бъ ᲂу҆́сше, занѐ не и҆мѣ́ѧше вла́ги:
6 Some seed fell on the rock, and as soon as it grew, it withered away, because it had no moisture.
7 и҆ дрꙋго́е падѐ посредѣ̀ те́рнїѧ, и҆ возрастѐ те́рнїе, и҆ подавѝ є҆̀:
7 Some fell amid the thorns, and the thorns grew with it and choked it.
8 дрꙋго́е же падѐ на землѝ бла́зѣ, и҆ прозѧ́бъ сотворѝ пло́дъ стори́цею. Сїѧ̑ гл҃ѧ, возгласѝ: и҆мѣ́ѧй ᲂу҆́шы слы́шати да слы́шитъ.
8 Some fell into the good ground and grew and produced one hundred times as much fruit.” As he said these things, he called out, “He who has ears to hear, let him hear!”
9 Вопроша́хꙋ же є҆го̀ ᲂу҆чн҃цы̀ є҆гѡ̀, глаго́люще: что̀ є҆́сть при́тча сїѧ̀;
9 Then his disciples asked him, “What does this parable mean?”
10 Ѻ҆́нъ же речѐ: ва́мъ є҆́сть дано̀ вѣ́дати та́йны црⷭ҇твїѧ бж҃їѧ, про́чымъ же въ при́тчахъ, да ви́дѧще не ви́дѧтъ и҆ слы́шаще не разꙋмѣ́ютъ.
10 He said, “To you it is given to know the mysteries of God’s Kingdom, but to the rest it is given in parables, that ‘seeing they may not see, and hearing they may not understand.’
11 Є҆́сть же сїѧ̀ при́тча: сѣ́мѧ є҆́сть сло́во бж҃їе:
11 “Now the parable is this: The seed is the word of God.
12 а҆ и҆̀же при пꙋтѝ, сꙋ́ть слы́шащїи, пото́мъ (же) прихо́дитъ дїа́волъ и҆ взе́млетъ сло́во ѿ се́рдца и҆́хъ, да не вѣ́ровавше спасꙋ́тсѧ:
12 Those along the road are those who hear; then the devil comes and takes away the word from their heart, that they may not believe and be saved.
13 а҆ и҆̀же на ка́мени, и҆̀же є҆гда̀ ᲂу҆слы́шатъ, съ ра́достїю прїе́млютъ сло́во: и҆ сі́и ко́рене не и҆́мꙋтъ, и҆̀же во вре́мѧ вѣ́рꙋютъ, и҆ во вре́мѧ напа́сти ѿпа́даютъ:
13 Those on the rock are they who, when they hear, receive the word with joy; but these have no root. They believe for a while, then fall away in time of temptation.
14 а҆ є҆́же въ те́рнїи па́дшее, сі́и сꙋ́ть слы́шавшїи, и҆ ѿ печа́ли и҆ бога́тства и҆ сластьмѝ жите́йскими ходѧ́ще подавлѧ́ютсѧ, и҆ не соверша́ютъ плода̀:
14 What fell among the thorns, these are those who have heard, and as they go on their way they are choked with cares, riches, and pleasures of life; and they bring no fruit to maturity.
15 а҆ и҆̀же на до́брѣй землѝ, сі́и сꙋ́ть, и҆̀же до́брымъ се́рдцемъ и҆ бл҃ги́мъ слы́шавше сло́во, держа́тъ и҆ пло́дъ творѧ́тъ въ терпѣ́нїи. Сїѧ̑ гл҃ѧ, возгласѝ: и҆мѣ́ѧй ᲂу҆́шы слы́шати да слы́шитъ.
15 Those in the good ground, these are those who with an honest and good heart, having heard the word, hold it tightly, and produce fruit with perseverance.
16 Никто́же (ᲂу҆̀бо) свѣти́льника вже́гъ, покрыва́етъ є҆го̀ сосꙋ́домъ, и҆лѝ под̾ ѻ҆́дръ подлага́етъ: но на свѣ́щникъ возлага́етъ, да входѧ́щїи ви́дѧтъ свѣ́тъ.
16 “No one, when he has lit a lamp, covers it with a container or puts it under a bed; but puts it on a stand, that those who enter in may see the light.
17 Нѣ́сть бо та́йно, є҆́же не ꙗ҆вле́но бꙋ́детъ: нижѐ ᲂу҆тае́но, є҆́же не позна́етсѧ и҆ въ ꙗ҆вле́нїе прїи́детъ.
17 For nothing is hidden that will not be revealed, nor anything secret that will not be known and come to light.
18 Блюди́тесѧ ᲂу҆̀бо, ка́кѡ слы́шите: и҆́же бо и҆́мать, да́стсѧ є҆мꙋ̀: и҆ и҆́же а҆́ще не и҆́мать, и҆ є҆́же мни́тсѧ и҆мѣ́ѧ, во́зметсѧ ѿ негѡ̀.
18 Be careful therefore how you hear. For whoever has, to him will be given; and whoever doesn’t have, from him will be taken away even that which he thinks he has.”
19 Прїидо́ша же къ немꙋ̀ мт҃и и҆ бра́тїѧ є҆гѡ̀, и҆ не можа́хꙋ бесѣ́довати къ немꙋ̀ наро́да ра́ди.
19 His mother and brothers came to him, and they could not come near him for the crowd.
20 И҆ возвѣсти́ша є҆мꙋ̀, глаго́люще: мт҃и твоѧ̀ и҆ бра́тїѧ твоѧ̑ внѣ̀ стоѧ́тъ, ви́дѣти тѧ̀ хотѧ́ще.
20 Some people told him, “Your mother and your brothers stand outside, desiring to see you.”
21 Ѻ҆́нъ же ѿвѣща́въ речѐ къ ни̑мъ: ма́ти моѧ̀ и҆ бра́тїѧ моѧ̑ сі́и сꙋ́ть, слы́шащїи сло́во бж҃їе, и҆ творѧ́щїи є҆̀.
21 But he answered them, “My mother and my brothers are these who hear the word of God and do it.”
22 И҆ бы́сть во є҆ди́нъ ѿ дні́й, то́й влѣ́зе въ кора́бль и҆ ᲂу҆чн҃цы̀ є҆гѡ̀: и҆ речѐ къ ни̑мъ: пре́йдемъ на ѡ҆́нъ по́лъ є҆́зера. И҆ поидо́ша.
22 Now on one of those days, he entered into a boat, himself and his disciples, and he said to them, “Let’s go over to the other side of the lake.” So they launched out.
23 И҆дꙋ́щымъ же и҆̀мъ, ᲂу҆́спе. И҆ сни́де бꙋ́рѧ вѣ́тренаѧ въ є҆́зеро, и҆ скончава́хꙋсѧ и҆ въ бѣдѣ̀ бѣ́хꙋ.
23 But as they sailed, he fell asleep. A wind storm came down on the lake, and they were taking on dangerous amounts of water.
24 И҆ пристꙋ́пльше воздвиго́ша є҆го̀, глаго́люще: наста́вниче, наста́вниче, погиба́емъ. Ѻ҆́нъ же воста́въ запретѝ вѣ́трꙋ и҆ волне́нїю водно́мꙋ: и҆ ᲂу҆лего́ста, и҆ бы́сть тишина̀.
24 They came to him and awoke him, saying, “Master, Master, we are dying!” He awoke and rebuked the wind and the raging of the water; then they ceased, and it was calm.
25 Рече́ же и҆̀мъ: гдѣ̀ є҆́сть вѣ́ра ва́ша; Оу҆боѧ́вшесѧ же чꙋди́шасѧ, глаго́люще дрꙋ́гъ ко дрꙋ́гꙋ: кто̀ ᲂу҆̀бо се́й є҆́сть, ꙗ҆́кѡ и҆ вѣ́трѡмъ повелѣва́етъ и҆ водѣ̀, и҆ послꙋ́шаютъ є҆гѡ̀;
25 He said to them, “Where is your faith?” Being afraid, they marveled, saying to one another, “Who is this then, that he commands even the winds and the water, and they obey him?”
26 И҆ преидо́ша во странꙋ̀ гадари́нскꙋ, ꙗ҆́же є҆́сть ѡ҆б̾ ѡ҆́нъ по́лъ галїле́и.
26 Then they arrived at the country of the Gadarenes, which is opposite Galilee.
27 И҆зше́дшꙋ же є҆мꙋ̀ на зе́млю, срѣ́те є҆го̀ мꙋ́жъ нѣ́кїй ѿ гра́да, и҆́же и҆мѧ́ше бѣ́сы ѿ лѣ́тъ мно́гихъ, и҆ въ ри́зꙋ не ѡ҆блача́шесѧ, и҆ во хра́мѣ не живѧ́ше, но во гробѣ́хъ.
27 When Jesus stepped ashore, a certain man out of the city who had demons for a long time met him. He wore no clothes, and didn’t live in a house, but in the tombs.
28 Оу҆зрѣ́въ же і҆и҃са и҆ возопи́въ, припадѐ къ немꙋ̀, и҆ гла́сомъ ве́лїимъ речѐ: что̀ мнѣ̀ и҆ тебѣ̀, і҆и҃се сн҃е бг҃а вы́шнѧгѡ; молю́сѧ тѝ, не мꙋ́чи менѐ.
28 When he saw Jesus, he cried out and fell down before him, and with a loud voice said, “What do I have to do with you, Jesus, you Son of the Most High God? I beg you, don’t torment me!”
29 Повелѣ́ бо дꙋ́хови нечи́стомꙋ и҆зы́ти ѿ человѣ́ка: ѿ мно́гихъ бо лѣ́тъ восхища́ше є҆го̀: и҆ вѧза́хꙋ є҆го̀ ᲂу҆́зы (желѣ̑зны) и҆ пꙋ̑ты, стрегꙋ́ще є҆го̀: и҆ растерза́ѧ ᲂу҆́зы, гони́мь быва́ше бѣ́сомъ сквозѣ̀ пꙋсты̑ни.
29 For Jesus was commanding the unclean spirit to come out of the man. For the unclean spirit had often seized the man. He was kept under guard and bound with chains and fetters. Breaking the bonds apart, he was driven by the demon into the desert.
30 Вопроси́ же є҆го̀ і҆и҃съ, гл҃ѧ: что̀ тѝ є҆́сть и҆́мѧ; Ѻ҆́нъ же речѐ: легеѡ́нъ: ꙗ҆́кѡ бѣ́си мно́зи внидо́ша во́нь.
30 Jesus asked him, “What is your name?” He said, “Legion,” for many demons had entered into him.
31 И҆ молѧ́хꙋ є҆го̀, да не повели́тъ и҆̀мъ въ бе́зднꙋ и҆тѝ.
31 They begged him that he would not command them to go into the abyss.
32 Бѣ́ же тꙋ̀ ста́до свині́й мно́го пасо́мо въ горѣ̀: и҆ молѧ́хꙋ є҆го̀, да повели́тъ и҆̀мъ въ ты̑ вни́ти. И҆ повелѣ̀ и҆̀мъ.
32 Now there was there a herd of many pigs feeding on the mountain, and they begged him that he would allow them to enter into those. Then he allowed them.
33 И҆зше́дше же бѣ́си ѿ человѣ́ка, внидо́ша во свинїѧ̑: и҆ ᲂу҆стреми́сѧ ста́до по бре́гꙋ въ є҆́зеро, и҆ и҆стопѐ.
33 The demons came out of the man and entered into the pigs, and the herd rushed down the steep bank into the lake and were drowned.
34 Ви́дѣвше же пасꙋ́щїи бы́вшее, бѣжа́ша, и҆ возвѣсти́ша во гра́дѣ и҆ въ се́лѣхъ.
34 When those who fed them saw what had happened, they fled and told it in the city and in the country.
35 И҆зыдо́ша же ви́дѣти бы́вшее: и҆ прїидо́ша ко і҆и҃сови и҆ ѡ҆брѣто́ша человѣ́ка сѣдѧ́ща, и҆з̾ негѡ́же бѣ́си и҆зыдо́ша, ѡ҆болче́на и҆ смы́слѧща, при ногꙋ̀ і҆и҃сѡвꙋ: и҆ ᲂу҆боѧ́шасѧ.
35 People went out to see what had happened. They came to Jesus and found the man from whom the demons had gone out, sitting at Jesus’ feet, clothed and in his right mind; and they were afraid.
36 Возвѣсти́ша же и҆̀мъ ви́дѣвшїи, ка́кѡ спасе́сѧ бѣснова́выйсѧ.
36 Those who saw it told them how he who had been possessed by demons was healed.
37 И҆ молѝ є҆го̀ ве́сь наро́дъ страны̀ гадари́нскїѧ ѿитѝ ѿ ни́хъ, ꙗ҆́кѡ стра́хомъ ве́лїимъ ѡ҆держи́ми бѣ́хꙋ. Ѻ҆́нъ же влѣ́зъ въ кора́бль, возврати́сѧ.
37 All the people of the surrounding country of the Gadarenes asked him to depart from them, for they were very much afraid. Then he entered into the boat and returned.
38 Молѧ́шесѧ же є҆мꙋ̀ мꙋ́жъ, и҆з̾ негѡ́же и҆зыдо́ша бѣ́си, дабы̀ съ ни́мъ бы́лъ. Ѿпꙋсти́ же є҆го̀ і҆и҃съ, гл҃ѧ:
38 But the man from whom the demons had gone out begged him that he might go with him, but Jesus sent him away, saying,
39 возврати́сѧ въ до́мъ тво́й и҆ повѣ́дай, є҆ли̑ка тѝ сотворѝ бг҃ъ. И҆ и҆́де, по всемꙋ̀ гра́дꙋ проповѣ́даѧ, є҆ли̑ка сотворѝ є҆мꙋ̀ і҆и҃съ.
39 “Return to your house, and declare what great things God has done for you.” He went his way, proclaiming throughout the whole city what great things Jesus had done for him.
40 Бы́сть же є҆гда̀ возврати́сѧ і҆и҃съ, прїѧ́тъ є҆го̀ наро́дъ: бѣ́хꙋ бо всѝ ча́юще є҆гѡ̀.
40 When Jesus returned, the multitude welcomed him, for they were all waiting for him.
41 И҆ сѐ, прїи́де мꙋ́жъ, є҆мꙋ́же и҆́мѧ і҆аі́ръ, и҆ то́й кнѧ́зь со́нмищꙋ бѣ̀: и҆ па́дъ при ногꙋ̀ і҆и҃сѡвꙋ, молѧ́ше є҆го̀ вни́ти въ до́мъ сво́й:
41 Behold, a man named Jairus came. He was a ruler of the synagogue. He fell down at Jesus’ feet and begged him to come into his house,
42 ꙗ҆́кѡ дщѝ є҆диноро́дна бѣ̀ є҆мꙋ̀, ꙗ҆́кѡ лѣ́тъ двоюна́десѧте, и҆ та̀ ᲂу҆мира́ше. Є҆гда́ же и҆дѧ́ше, наро́ди ᲂу҆гнета́хꙋ є҆го̀.
42 for he had an only born daughter, about twelve years of age, and she was dying. But as he went, the multitudes pressed against him.
43 И҆ жена̀ сꙋ́щи въ точе́нїи кро́ве ѿ двоюна́десѧте лѣ̑тꙋ, ꙗ҆́же врачє́мъ и҆зда́вши всѐ и҆мѣ́нїе, (и҆) не возмо́же ни ѿ є҆ди́нагѡ и҆сцѣлѣ́ти:
43 A woman who had a flow of blood for twelve years, who had spent all her living on physicians and could not be healed by any,
44 (и҆) пристꙋ́пльши созадѝ, коснꙋ́сѧ кра́ѧ ри́зъ є҆гѡ̀: и҆ а҆́бїе ста̀ то́къ кро́ве є҆ѧ̀.
44 came behind him and touched the fringe of his cloak. Immediately the flow of her blood stopped.
45 И҆ речѐ і҆и҃съ: кто̀ є҆́сть коснꙋ́выйсѧ мнѣ̀; Ѿмета́ющымсѧ же всѣ̑мъ, речѐ пе́тръ и҆ и҆̀же съ ни́мъ: наста́вниче, наро́ди ѡ҆держа́тъ тѧ̀ и҆ гнетꙋ́тъ, и҆ гл҃еши: кто̀ є҆́сть коснꙋ́выйсѧ мнѣ̀;
45 Jesus said, “Who touched me?” When all denied it, Peter and those with him said, “Master, the multitudes press and jostle you, and you say, ‘Who touched me?’”
46 І҆и҃съ же речѐ: прикоснꙋ́сѧ мнѣ̀ нѣ́кто: а҆́зъ бо чꙋ́хъ си́лꙋ и҆зше́дшꙋю и҆з̾ менє̀.
46 But Jesus said, “Someone did touch me, for I perceived that power has gone out of me.”
47 Ви́дѣвши же жена̀, ꙗ҆́кѡ не ᲂу҆таи́сѧ, трепе́щꙋщи прїи́де, и҆ па́дши пред̾ ни́мъ, є҆ѧ́же ра́ди вины̀ прикоснꙋ́сѧ є҆мꙋ̀, повѣ́да є҆мꙋ̀ пред̾ всѣ́ми людьмѝ, и҆ ꙗ҆́кѡ и҆сцѣлѣ̀ а҆́бїе.
47 When the woman saw that she was not hidden, she came trembling; and falling down before him declared to him in the presence of all the people the reason why she had touched him, and how she was healed immediately.
48 Ѻ҆́нъ же речѐ є҆́й: дерза́й дщѝ, вѣ́ра твоѧ̀ сп҃се́ тѧ: и҆дѝ въ ми́рѣ.
48 He said to her, “Daughter, cheer up. Your faith has made you well. Go in peace.”
49 Є҆щѐ є҆мꙋ̀ гл҃ющꙋ, прїи́де нѣ́кїй ѿ а҆рхїсѷнагѡ́га, глаго́лѧ є҆мꙋ̀, ꙗ҆́кѡ ᲂу҆́мре дщѝ твоѧ̀: не дви́жи ᲂу҆чт҃лѧ.
49 While he still spoke, one from the ruler of the synagogue’s house came, saying to him, “Your daughter is dead. Don’t trouble the Teacher.”
50 І҆и҃съ же слы́шавъ ѿвѣща̀ є҆мꙋ̀, гл҃ѧ: не бо́йсѧ, то́кмѡ вѣ́рꙋй, и҆ сп҃се́на бꙋ́детъ.
50 But Jesus hearing it, answered him, “Don’t be afraid. Only believe, and she will be healed.”
51 Прише́дъ же въ до́мъ, не ѡ҆ста́ви ни є҆ди́нагѡ вни́ти, то́кмѡ петра̀ и҆ і҆ѡа́нна и҆ і҆а́кѡва, и҆ ѻ҆тца̀ ѻ҆трокови́цы, и҆ ма́тере.
51 When he came to the house, he didn’t allow anyone to enter in, except Peter, John, James, the father of the child, and her mother.
52 Пла́кахꙋсѧ же всѝ и҆ рыда́хꙋ є҆ѧ̀. Ѻ҆́нъ же речѐ: не пла́читесѧ: не ᲂу҆́мре (бо), но спи́тъ.
52 All were weeping and mourning her, but he said, “Don’t weep. She isn’t dead, but sleeping.”
53 И҆ рꙋга́хꙋсѧ є҆мꙋ̀, вѣ́дѧще, ꙗ҆́кѡ ᲂу҆́мре.
53 They were ridiculing him, knowing that she was dead.
54 Ѻ҆́нъ же и҆згна́въ во́нъ всѣ́хъ, и҆ є҆́мь за рꙋ́кꙋ є҆ѧ̀, возгласѝ гл҃ѧ: ѻ҆трокови́це, воста́ни.
54 But he put them all outside, and taking her by the hand, he called, saying, “Child, arise!”
55 И҆ возврати́сѧ дꙋ́хъ є҆ѧ̀, и҆ воскре́се а҆́бїе: и҆ повелѣ̀ да́ти є҆́й ꙗ҆́сти.
55 Her spirit returned, and she rose up immediately. He commanded that something be given to her to eat.
56 И҆ диви́стасѧ роди́тєлѧ є҆ѧ̀. Ѻ҆́нъ же повелѣ̀ и҆́ма никомꙋ́же повѣ́дати бы́вшагѡ.
56 Her parents were amazed, but he commanded them to tell no one what had been done.

What the Fathers said

Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).

“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse.

  4. Quotes verse 8:18 Cyril of Jerusalem, Catechetical Lectures (Lecture VI)

    For where there is wilful wickedness, there is also a withholding of grace: for to him that hath shall be given; but from him that hath not shall be taken even that which he seemeth to have.

  5. Quotes verse 8:28–33 Gregory of Nazianzus, Theological Orations (The Third Theological Oration)

    He is called a Samaritan and a demoniac; --but He saves him that came down from Jerusalem and fell among thieves; the demons acknowledge Him, and He drives out demons and sinks in the sea legions of foul spirits, and sees the Prince of the demons falling like lightning.
