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

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

2 A nd immediately on his going out of the ship there met him out of the tombs a man possessed by 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 one was able to bind him, not even with chains;

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

4 b ecause he had been often bound with fetters and chains, and the chains had been torn asunder by him, and the fetters were shattered; and no one was able to subdue 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 continually night and day, in the tombs and in the mountains, he was crying 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 B ut seeing Jesus from afar off, he ran and did him homage,

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

7 a nd crying with a loud voice he says, What have I to do with thee, Jesus, 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 to him, Come forth, 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 says to him, Legion is my name, because 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 just at the mountain 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 Jesus allowed them. And the unclean spirits going out entered into the swine, and the herd rushed down the steep slope, into the sea (about two thousand), and were choked 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 those that were feeding them fled and reported it in the city and in the country. And they went out to see what it was that had taken place.

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 they see the possessed of demons sitting clothed and sensible, that had 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 had seen related to them how it had happened to the possessed by 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 beg him to depart from their coasts.

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

18 A nd as he went on board ship, the man that had been possessed by 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 says to him, Go to thine home to thine own people, and tell them how great things the Lord has done for thee, and has 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 away and began to proclaim in the Decapolis how great things Jesus had done for him; and all wondered.

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 Jesus having passed over in the ship again to the other side, a great crowd gathered to 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 comes one of the rulers of the synagogue, by name Jairus, and seeing him, falls down 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 he besought him much, saying, My little daughter is at extremity; that thou shouldest come and lay thy hands upon her so that she may be healed, and may 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 large crowd followed him and pressed on him.

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

25 A nd a certain woman who had had a flux of blood twelve years,

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

26 a nd had suffered much under many physicians, and had spent everything she had and had found no advantage from it, but had rather got 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 concerning Jesus, came in the crowd behind and touched his clothes;

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

28 f or she said, If I shall touch but his clothes I shall be healed.

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

29 A nd immediately her fountain of blood was dried up, and she knew in her body that she was cured from the scourge.

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 immediately Jesus, knowing in himself the power that had gone out of him, turning round in the crowd said, Who has touched my clothes?

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 to him, Thou seest the crowd pressing on 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 who had done this.

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

33 B ut the woman, frightened and trembling, knowing what had taken place in 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 to her, Daughter, thy faith has healed thee; go in peace, and be well of thy scourge.

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 was yet speaking, they come from the ruler of the synagogue's, saying, Thy daughter has died, 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, having heard the word spoken, says to 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 one to accompany 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 he comes to the house of the ruler of the synagogue, and sees the tumult, and people 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 entering in he says to them, Why do ye make a tumult and weep? the child has not died, but sleeps.

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 derided him. But he, having put all out, takes with the father of the child, and the mother, and those that were with him, and enters in where the child was lying.

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 having laid hold of the hand of the child, he says to her, Talitha koumi, which is, interpreted, Damsel, I say to 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 immediately the damsel arose and walked, for she was twelve years old. And they were astonished with great astonishment.

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 one should know this; and he desired that 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.
