1 A nd they came to the other side of the sea, into the country of the Gerasenes.

And they came to the other side of the sea, to the region of the Gadarenes,

2 A nd when he was come out of the boat, straightway there met him out of the tombs a man with an unclean spirit,

and he having come forth out of the boat, immediately there met him out of the tombs a man with an unclean spirit,

3 w ho had his dwelling in the tombs: and no man could any more bind him, no, not with a chain;

who had his dwelling in the tombs, and not even with chains was any one able to bind him,

4 b ecause that he had been often bound with fetters and chains, and the chains had been rent asunder by him, and the fetters broken in pieces: and no man had strength to tame him.

because that he many times with fetters and chains had been bound, and pulled in pieces by him had been the chains, and the fetters broken in pieces, and none was able to tame him,

5 A nd always, night and day, in the tombs and in the mountains, he was crying out, and cutting himself with stones.

and always, night and day, in the mountains, and in the tombs he was, crying and cutting himself with stones.

6 A nd when he saw Jesus from afar, he ran and worshipped him;

And, having seen Jesus from afar, he ran and bowed before him,

7 a nd crying out with a loud voice, he saith, What have I to do with thee, Jesus, thou Son of the Most High God? I adjure thee by God, torment me not.

and having called with a loud voice, he said, `What -- to me and to thee, Jesus, Son of God the Most High? I adjure thee by God, mayest thou not afflict me!'

8 F or he said unto him, Come forth, thou unclean spirit, out of the man.

(for he said to him, `Come forth, spirit unclean, out of the man,')

9 A nd he asked him, What is thy name? And he saith unto him, My name is Legion; for we are many.

and he was questioning him, `What thy name?' and he answered, saying, `Legion my name, because we are many;'

10 A nd he besought him much that he would not send them away out of the country.

and he was calling on him much, that he may not send them out of the region.

11 N ow there was there on the mountain side a great herd of swine feeding.

And there was there, near the mountains, a great herd of swine feeding,

12 A nd they besought him, saying, Send us into the swine, that we may enter into them.

and all the demons did call upon him, saying, `Send us to the swine, that into them we may enter;'

13 A nd he gave them leave. And the unclean spirits came out, and entered into the swine: and the herd rushed down the steep into the sea, in number about two thousand; and they were drowned in the sea.

and immediately Jesus gave them leave, and having come forth, the unclean spirits did enter into the swine, and the herd did rush down the steep place to the sea -- and they were about two thousand -- and they were choked in the sea.

14 A nd they that fed them fled, and told it in the city, and in the country. And they came to see what it was that had come to pass.

And those feeding the swine did flee, and told in the city, and in the fields, and they came forth to see what it is that hath been done;

15 A nd they come to Jesus, and behold him that was possessed with demons sitting, clothed and in his right mind, even him that had the legion: and they were afraid.

and they come unto Jesus, and see the demoniac, sitting, and clothed, and right-minded -- him having had the legion -- and they were afraid;

16 A nd they that saw it declared unto them how it befell him that was possessed with demons, and concerning the swine.

and those having seen, declared to them how it had come to pass to the demoniac, and about the swine;

17 A nd they began to beseech him to depart from their borders.

and they began to call upon him to go away from their borders.

18 A nd as he was entering into the boat, he that had been possessed with demons besought him that he might be with him.

And he having gone into the boat, the demoniac was calling on him that he may be with him,

19 A nd he suffered him not, but saith unto him, Go to thy house unto thy friends, and tell them how great things the Lord hath done for thee, and how he had mercy on thee.

and Jesus did not suffer him, but saith to him, `Go away to thy house, unto thine own, and tell them how great things the Lord did to thee, and dealt kindly with thee;

20 A nd he went his way, and began to publish in Decapolis how great things Jesus had done for him: and all men marvelled.

and he went away, and began to proclaim in the Decapolis how great things Jesus did to him, and all were wondering.

21 A nd when Jesus had crossed over again in the boat unto the other side, a great multitude was gathered unto him; and he was by the sea.

And Jesus having passed over in the boat again to the other side, there was gathered a great multitude to him, and he was near the sea,

22 A nd there cometh one of the rulers of the synagogue, Jairus by name; and seeing him, he falleth at his feet,

and lo, there doth come one of the chiefs of the synagogue, by name Jairus, and having seen him, he doth fall at his feet,

23 a nd beseecheth him much, saying, My little daughter is at the point of death: I pray thee, that thou come and lay thy hands on her, that she may be made whole, and live.

and he was calling upon him much, saying -- `My little daughter is at the last extremity -- that having come, thou mayest lay on her hands, so that she may be saved, and she shall live;'

24 A nd he went with him; and a great multitude followed him, and they thronged him.

and he went away with him. And there was following him a great multitude, and they were thronging him,

25 A nd a woman, who had an issue of blood twelve years,

and a certain woman, having an issue of blood twelve years,

26 a nd had suffered many things of many physicians, and had spent all that she had, and was nothing bettered, but rather grew worse,

and many things having suffered under many physicians, and having spent all that she had, and having profited nothing, but rather having come to the worse,

27 h aving heard the things concerning Jesus, came in the crowd behind, and touched his garment.

having heard about Jesus, having come in the multitude behind, she touched his garment,

28 F or she said, If I touch but his garments, I shall be made whole.

for she said -- `If even his garments I may touch, I shall be saved;'

29 A nd straightway the fountain of her blood was dried up; and she felt in her body that she was healed of her plague.

and immediately was the fountain of her blood dried up, and she knew in the body that she hath been healed of the plague.

30 A nd straightway Jesus, perceiving in himself that the power proceeding from him had gone forth, turned him about in the crowd, and said, Who touched my garments?

And immediately Jesus having known in himself that out of him power had gone forth, having turned about in the multitude, said, `Who did touch my garments?'

31 A nd his disciples said unto him, Thou seest the multitude thronging thee, and sayest thou, Who touched me?

and his disciples said to him, `Thou seest the multitude thronging thee, and thou sayest, `Who did touch me!'

32 A nd he looked round about to see her that had done this thing.

And he was looking round to see her who did this,

33 B ut the woman fearing and trembling, knowing what had been done to her, came and fell down before him, and told him all the truth.

and the woman, having been afraid, and trembling, knowing what was done on her, came, and fell down before him, and told him all the truth,

34 A nd he said unto her, Daughter, thy faith hath made thee whole; go in peace, and be whole of thy plague.

and he said to her, `Daughter, thy faith hath saved thee; go away in peace, and be whole from thy plague.'

35 W hile he yet spake, they come from the ruler of the synagogue's house saying, Thy daughter is dead: why troublest thou the Teacher any further?

As he is yet speaking, there come from the chief of the synagogue's, saying -- `Thy daughter did die, why still dost thou harass the Teacher?'

36 B ut Jesus, not heeding the word spoken, saith unto the ruler of the synagogue, Fear not, only believe.

And Jesus immediately, having heard the word that is spoken, saith to the chief of the synagogue, `Be not afraid, only believe.'

37 A nd he suffered no man to follow with him, save Peter, and James, and John the brother of James.

And he did not suffer any one to follow with him, except Peter, and James, and John the brother of James;

38 A nd they come to the house of the ruler of the synagogue; and he beholdeth a tumult, and many weeping and wailing greatly.

and he cometh to the house of the chief of the synagogue, and seeth a tumult, much weeping and wailing;

39 A nd when he was entered in, he saith unto them, Why make ye a tumult, and weep? the child is not dead, but sleepeth.

and having gone in he saith to them, `Why do ye make a tumult, and weep? the child did not die, but doth sleep;

40 A nd they laughed him to scorn. But he, having put them all forth, taketh the father of the child and her mother and them that were with him, and goeth in where the child was.

and they were laughing at him. And he, having put all forth, doth take the father of the child, and the mother, and those with him, and goeth in where the child is lying,

41 A nd taking the child by the hand, he saith unto her, Talitha cumi; which is, being interpreted, Damsel, I say unto thee, Arise.

and, having taken the hand of the child, he saith to her, `Talitha cumi;' which is, being interpreted, `Damsel (I say to thee), arise.'

42 A nd straightway the damsel rose up, and walked; for she was twelve years old. And they were amazed straightway with a great amazement.

And immediately the damsel arose, and was walking, for she was twelve years; and they were amazed with a great amazement,

43 A nd he charged them much that no man should know this: and he commanded that something should be given her to eat.

and he charged them much, that no one may know this thing, and he said that there be given to her to eat.
