out, and fell down before him, ant
with a loud voice said, What have
to do with thee, Jesus, thou Sol
of God most high? beseech thee
torment me not.

unclean spirit to come out of the
man. For oftimes 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.
81 And they besought him that
he would not command them to &C

80 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.

the man, and entered into the
swine: and the herd ran violently
and were choked.

what was done, they fled, and
went and told 1t in the city and in
the country.

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.

them by what means he that was
possessed of the devils was healed.

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.

the devils were departed besought
him that he might be with him !:

Al And, behold, there came man
named Jairus, and he was a ruler
Of the synagogue: and he fell down
at Jesus feet, and besDught him
that he would come into his house !:
AZ For he had one only daughter,
about twelve years of age, and she
lay dying. But as he went the
people thronged him.

Of blood twelve years, which had
spent all her living upon physicians,

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 / perceive
that virtue is gone out of me.
Al 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 touch

hath made thee whole; go in peace.

cometh one from the ruler of the
synagogue's house, saying to him,
Thy daughter is dead; trouble not

And it came to pass afterward,
that he went throughout every city

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 trod-
den down, and the fowls of thei 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.
And some fell among thorns;
and the thorns sprang up with 1t,

saying, What might this parable be?
10 And he said, Unto you it is
given to know mysteries Of the
kingdom of God: but to others in
parallels; that seeing they might
not see, and hearing they might not
understand.
IL Now the parable is this: The
seed is the word of God.
II Those by the way side are
they that hear; then cQmeth 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 while believe, and
in time of temptation fall away.
IA 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.
10 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.
