Luke 8:16-28

¹⁶Now no man lighting a candle covereth it with a vessel, or putteth it under a bed; but setteth it upon a candlestick, that they who come in may see the light.

¹⁷For there is not any thing secret that shall not be made manifest, nor hidden, that shall not be known and come abroad.

¹⁸Take heed therefore how you hear. For whosoever hath, to him shall be given: and whosoever hath not, that also which he thinketh he hath, shall be taken away from him.

¹⁹And his mother and brethren came unto him; and they could not come at him for the crowd.

²⁰And it was told him: Thy mother and thy brethren stand without, desiring to see thee.

²¹Who answering, said to them: My mother and my brethren are they who hear the word of God, and do it.

²²And it came to pass on a certain day that he went into a little ship with his disciples, and he said to them: Let us go over to the other side of the lake. And they launched forth.

²³And when they were sailing, he slept; and there came down a storm of wind upon the lake, and they were filled, and were in danger.

²⁴And they came and awaked him, saying: Master, we perish. But he arising, rebuked the wind and the rage of the water; and it ceased, and there was a calm.

²⁵And he said to them: Where is your faith? Who being afraid, wondered, saying one to another: Who is this, (think you), that he commandeth both the winds and the sea, and they obey him?

²⁶And they sailed to the country of the Gerasens, which is over against Galilee.

²⁷And when he was come forth to the land, there met him a certain man who had a devil now a very long time, and he wore no clothes, neither did he abide in a house, but in the sepulchres.

²⁸And when he saw Jesus, he fell down before him; and crying out with a loud voice, he said: What have I to do with thee, Jesus, Son of the most high God? I beseech thee, do not torment me.
