| Y ACONTECIO después, que él caminaba por todas las ciudades y aldeas, predicando y anunciando el evangelio del reino de Dios, y los doce con él, | And it came about, after a short time, that he went through town and country giving the good news of the kingdom of God, and with him were the twelve, |
| Y algunas mujeres que habían sido curadas de malos espíritus y de enfermedades: María, que se llamaba Magdalena, de la cual habían salido siete demonios, | And certain women who had been made free from evil spirits and diseases, Mary named Magdalene, from whom seven evil spirits had gone out, |
| Y Juana, mujer de Chuza, procurador de Herodes, y Susana, y otras muchas que le servían de sus haciendas. | And Joanna, the wife of Chuza, Herod's chief house-servant, and Susanna and a number of others, who gave him of their wealth for his needs. |
| Ycomo se juntó una grande compañía, y los que estaban en cada ciudad vinieron á él, dijo por una parábola: | And when a great number of people came together, and men from every town went out to him, he gave them teaching in the form of a story: |
| Uno que sembraba, salió á sembrar su simiente; y sembrando, una parte cayó junto al camino, y fué hollada; y las aves del cielo la comieron. | A man went out to put in seed, and while he was doing it, some was dropped by the wayside and it was crushed under foot, and was taken by the birds of heaven. |
| Y otra parte cayó sobre la piedra; y nacida, se secó, porque no tenía humedad. | And some went on the rock, and when it came up it became dry and dead because it had no water. |
| Y otra parte cayó entre las espinas; y naciendo las espinas juntamente, la ahogaron. | And some went among thorns, and the thorns came up with it and it had no room for growth. |
| Y otra parte cayó en buena tierra, y cuando fué nacida, llevó fruto á ciento por uno. Diciendo estas cosas clamaba: El que tiene oídos para oir, oiga. | And some falling on good earth, came up and gave fruit a hundred times as much. And with these words he said in a loud voice, He who has ears, let him give ear. |
| Y sus discípulos le preguntaron, diciendo, qué era está parábola. | And his disciples put questions to him about the point of the story. |
| Y él dijo: A vosotros es dado conocer los misterios del reino de Dios; mas á los otros por parábolas, para que viendo no vean, y oyendo no entiendan. | And he said, To you is given knowledge of the secrets of the kingdom of God; but to the others, they are given in stories, so that seeing, they may not see, and though they give hearing, the sense will not be clear to them. |
| Es pues ésta la parábola: La simiente es la palabra de Dios. | Now this is the point of the story: The seed is the word of God. |
| Y los de junto al camino, éstos son los que oyen; y luego viene el diablo, y quita la palabra de su corazón, porque no crean y se salven. | Those by the side of the road are those who have given hearing; then the Evil One comes and takes away the word from their hearts, so that they may not have faith and get salvation. |
| Y los de sobre la piedra, son los que habiendo oído, reciben la palabra con gozo; mas éstos no tienen raíces; que á tiempo creen, y en el tiempo de la tentación se apartan. | And those on the rock are those who with joy give hearing to the word; but having no root, they have faith for a time, and when the test comes they give up. |
| Y la que cayó entre las espinas, éstos son los que oyeron; mas yéndose, son ahogados de los cuidados y de las riquezas y de los pasatiempos de la vida, y no llevan fruto. | And those which went among thorns are those who have given hearing, and go on their way, but they are overcome by cares and wealth and the pleasures of life, and they give no fruit. |
| Mas la que en buena tierra, éstos son los que con corazón bueno y recto retienen la palabra oída, y llevan fruto en paciencia. | And those in the good earth are those who, having given ear to the word, keep it with a good and true heart, and in quiet strength give fruit. |
| Ninguno que enciende la antorcha la cubre con vasija, ó la pone debajo de la cama; mas la pone en un candelero, para que los que entran vean la luz. | No man, when the light is lighted, puts a cover over it, or puts it under a bed, but he puts it on its table, so that those who come in may see the light. |
| Porque no hay cosa oculta, que no haya de ser manifestada; ni cosa escondida, que no haya de ser entendida, y de venir á luz. | For nothing is put out of view which will not be made clear, and nothing is secret of which the knowledge will not come to light. |
| Mirad pues cómo oís; porque á cualquiera que tuviere, le será dado; y á cualquiera que no tuviere, aun lo que parece tener le será quitado. | So take care how you give hearing, for to him who has will be given, and from him who has not will be taken even what he seems to have. |
| Y vinieron á él su madre y hermanos; y no podían llegar á el por causa de la multitud. | And his mother and his brothers came to him, and they were not able to get near him because of the great number of people. |
| Y le fué dado aviso, diciendo: Tu madre y tus hermanos están fuera, que quieren verte. | And someone said to him, Your mother and your brothers are outside desiring to see you. |
| El entonces respondiendo, les dijo: Mi madre y mis hermanos son los que oyen la palabra de Dios, y la ejecutan. | But he said to them in answer, My mother and my brothers are those who have knowledge of the word of God and do it. |
| Y aconteció un día que él entró en un barco con sus discípulos, y les dijo: Pasemos á la otra parte del lago. Y partieron. | Now it came about on one of those days that he got into a boat with his disciples; and he said to them, Let us go over to the other side of the water: and they put out the boat. |
| Pero mientras ellos navegaban, él se durmió. Y sobrevino una tempestad de viento en el lago; y henchían de agua, y peligraban. | But while they were sailing he went to sleep: and a storm of wind came down on the sea, and the boat became full of water and they were in danger. |
| Y llegándose á él, le despertaron, diciendo: ¡Maestro, Maestro, que perecemos! Y despertado él increpó al viento y á la tempestad del agua; y cesaron, y fué hecha bonanza. | Then they came to him and, awaking him out of his sleep, said, Master, Master, destruction is near. And he, when he was awake, gave orders to the wind and the rolling waves, and the storm came to an end, and all was calm. |
| Y les dijo: ¿Qué es de vuestra fe? Y atemorizados, se maravillaban, diciendo los unos á los otros: ¿Quién es éste, que aun á los vientos y al agua manda, y le obedecen? | And he said to them, Where is your faith? And fear and wonder overcame them, and they said to one another, Who then is this, who gives orders even to the winds and the water and they do what he says? |
| Y navegaron á la tierra de los Gadarenos, que está delante de Galilea. | And they came to the country of the Gerasenes, which is opposite Galilee. |
| Y saliendo él á tierra, le vino al encuentro de la ciudad un hombre que tenía demonios ya de mucho tiempo; y no vestía vestido, ni estaba en casa, sino por los sepulcros. | And when he had come to the land, there came to him a certain man from the town who had evil spirits; and for a long time he had had no clothing on, and was not living in a house but in the place of the dead. |
| El cual, como vió á Jesús, exclamó y se postró delante de él, y dijo á gran voz: ¿Qué tengo yo contigo, Jesús, Hijo del Dios Altísimo? Ruégote que no me atormentes. | And when he saw Jesus, he gave a loud cry and went down on the earth before him and in a loud voice said, What have I to do with you, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? Do not be cruel to me. |
| (Porque mandaba al espíritu inmundo que saliese del hombre: porque ya de mucho tiempo le arrebataba; y le guardaban preso con cadenas y grillos; mas rompiendo las prisiones, era agitado del demonio por los desiertos.) | For he gave an order to the evil spirit to come out of the man. For frequently it would take a grip of him: and he was kept under control, and prisoned with chains; but parting the chains in two, he would be sent by the driving of the evil spirit into waste places. |
| Y le preguntó Jesús, diciendo: ¿Qué nombre tienes? Y él dijo: Legión. Porque muchos demonios habían entrado en él. | And Jesus said to him, What is your name? And he said, Legion; for a number of spirits had gone into him. |
| Y le rogaban que no les mandase ir al abismo. | And they made a request to him that he would not give them an order to go away into the deep. |
| Y había allí un hato de muchos puercos que pacían en el monte; y le rogaron que los dejase entrar en ellos; y los dejó. | Now there was a great herd of pigs in that place, getting food on the mountain: and the evil spirits made a request to him that he would let them go into the pigs, and he let them. |
| Y salidos los demonios del hombre, entraron en los puercos; y el hato se arrojó de un despeñadero en el lago, y ahogóse. | And the evil spirits came out of the man and went into the pigs: and the herd went rushing down a sharp slope into the water and came to destruction. |
| Y los pastores, como vieron lo que había acontecido, huyeron, y yendo dieron aviso en la ciudad y por las heredades. | And when the men who took care of them saw what had come about, they went quickly and gave news of it in the town and the country. |
| Y salieron á ver lo que había acontecido; y vinieron á Jesús, y hallaron sentado al hombre de quien habían salido los demonios, vestido, y en su juicio, á los pies de Jesús; y tuvieron miedo. | And they went out to see what had taken place, and they came to Jesus and saw the man out of whom the evil spirits had gone, seated, clothed and with full use of his senses, at the feet of Jesus; and fear came on them. |
| Y les contaron los que lo habían visto, cómo había sido salvado aquel endemoniado. | And those who had seen it gave them an account of how the man who had the evil spirits was made well. |
| Entonces toda la multitud de la tierra de los Gadarenos alrededor, le rogaron que se fuese de ellos; porque tenían gran temor. Y él, subiendo en el barco, volvióse. | And all the people of the country of the Gerasenes made a request to him to go away from them; for they were in great fear: and he got into a boat and went back. |
| Y aquel hombre, de quien habían salido los demonios, le rogó para estar con él; mas Jesús le despidió, diciendo: | But the man from whom the evil spirits had gone out had a great desire to be with him, but he sent him away, saying, |
| Vuélvete á tu casa, y cuenta cuán grandes cosas ha hecho Dios contigo. Y él se fué, publicando por toda la ciudad cuán grandes cosas habiá hecho Jesús con él. | Go back to your house and let them have news of all the great things which God has done for you. And he went away, giving word through all the town of the great things which Jesus had done for him. |
| Y aconteció que volviendo Jesús, recibióle la gente; porque todos le esperaban. | And when Jesus went back, the people were glad to see him, for they were all waiting for him. |
| Y he aquí un varón, llamado Jairo, y que era príncipe de la sinagoga, vino, y cayendo á los pies de Jesús, le rogaba que entrase en su casa; | Then there came a man named Jairus, who was a ruler in the Synagogue: and he went down at the feet of Jesus, desiring him to come to his house; |
| Porque tenía una hija única, como de doce años, y ella se estaba muriendo. Y yendo, le apretaba la compañía. | For he had an only daughter, about twelve years old, and she was near to death. But while he was on his way, the people were pushing to be near him. |
| Y una mujer, que tenía flujo de sangre hacía ya doce años, la cual había gastado en médicos toda su hacienda, y por ninguno había podido ser curada, | And a woman, who had had a flow of blood for twelve years, and had given all her money to medical men, and not one of them was able to make her well, |
| Llegándose por las espaldas, tocó el borde de su vestido; y luego se estancó el flujo de su sangre. | Came after him and put her hand on the edge of his robe, and straight away the flowing of her blood was stopped. |
| Entonces Jesús dijo: ¿Quién es el que me ha tocado? Y negando todos, dijo Pedro y los que estaban con él: Maestro, la compañía te aprieta y oprime, y dices: ¿Quién es el que me ha tocado? | And Jesus said, Who was touching me? And when they all said, It is not I, Peter and those who were with him said, Master, the people are pushing round you on every side. |
| Y Jesús dijo: Me ha tocado alguien; porque yo he conocido que ha salido virtud de mí. | But Jesus said, Someone was touching me, for I had the feeling that power had gone out from me. |
| Entonces, como la mujer vió que no se había ocultado, vino temblando, y postrándose delante de él declaróle delante de todo el pueblo la causa por qué le había tocado, y cómo luego había sido sana. | And when the woman saw that she was not able to keep it secret, she came, shaking with fear, and falling down before him she made clear before all the people the reason for her touching him, and how she was made well straight away. |
| Y él dijo: Hija, tu fe te ha salvado: ve en paz. | And he said to her, Daughter, your faith has made you well; go in peace. |
| Estando aún él hablando, vino uno del príncipe de la sinagoga á decirle: Tu hija es muerta, no des trabajo al Maestro. | While he was still talking, someone came from the house of the ruler of the Synagogue, saying, Your daughter is dead; do not go on troubling the Master. |
| Y oyéndolo Jesús, le respondió: No temas: cree solamente, y será salva. | But Jesus at these words said to him, Have no fear, only have faith, and she will be made well. |
| Y entrado en casa, no dejó entrar á nadie consigo, sino á Pedro, y á Jacobo, y á Juan, y al padre y á la madre de la moza. | And when he came to the house he did not let any man go in with him, but only Peter and John and James, and the father of the girl and her mother. |
| Y lloraban todos, y la plañían. Y él dijo: No lloréis; no es muerta, sino que duerme. | And all the people were weeping and crying for her; but he said, Do not be sad, for she is not dead, but sleeping. |
| Y hacían burla de él, sabiendo que estaba muerta. | And they were laughing at him, being certain that she was dead. |
| Mas él, tomándola de la mano, clamó, diciendo: Muchacha, levántate. | But he, taking her hand, said to her, My child, get up. |
| Entonces su espíritu volvió, y se levantó luego: y él mando que le diesen de comer. | And her spirit came back to her and she got up straight away: and he gave orders that food was to be given to her. |
| Y sus padres estaban atónitos; á los cuales él mandó, que á nadie dijesen lo que había sido hecho. | And her father and mother were full of wonder, but he gave orders to them to say nothing about it to anyone. |
