And forthwith Jesus gave them leave. And the unclean spirits went out, and entered into the swine: and the herd ran violently down a steep place into the sea, (they were about two thousand;) and were choked in the sea.

14 T heir herdsmen ran away and reported it in the city and in the country. And the people came to see what it was that had happened.

19 A nd He did not let him, but He said to him, “ Go home to your people and report to them what great things the Lord has done for you, and how He had mercy on you.”

Howbeit Jesus suffered him not, but saith unto him, Go home to thy friends, and tell them how great things the Lord hath done for thee, and hath had compassion on thee.

20 A nd he went away and began to proclaim in Decapolis what great things Jesus had done for him; and everyone was amazed. Miracles and Healing

28 F or she thought, “If I just touch His garments, I will get well.”

For she said, If I may touch but his clothes, I shall be whole.

29 I mmediately the flow of her blood was dried up; and she felt in her body that she was healed of her affliction.

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

30 I mmediately Jesus, perceiving in Himself that the power proceeding from Him had gone forth, turned around in the crowd and said, “Who touched My garments?”

36 B ut Jesus, overhearing what was being spoken, said to the synagogue official, “ Do not be afraid any longer, only believe.”

As soon as Jesus heard the word that was spoken, he saith unto the ruler of the synagogue, Be not afraid, only believe.
