1 J esus and His followers came to the other side of the sea to the country of the Gerasenes.

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

2 H e got out of the boat. At once a man came to Him from among the graves. This man had a demon.

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

3 H e lived among the graves. No man could tie him, even with chains.

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

4 M any times he had been tied with chains on his feet. He had broken the chains as well as the irons from his hands and legs. No man was strong enough to keep him tied.

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 N ight and day he was among the graves and in the mountains. He would cry out and cut himself with stones.

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

6 W hen the man with the demon saw Jesus a long way off, he ran and worshiped Him.

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

7 T he man spoke with a loud voice and said, “What do You want with me, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I ask You, in the name of God, do not hurt me!”

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 A t the same time, Jesus was saying, “Come out of the man, you demon!”

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

9 J esus asked the demon, “What is your name?” He said, “My name is Many, for there are many of us.”

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

10 T he demons asked Jesus not to send them out of the country.

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

11 T here were many pigs feeding on the mountain side.

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

12 T he demons asked Him saying, “Send us to the pigs that we may go into them.”

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

13 T hen Jesus let them do what they wanted to do. So they went into the pigs. The pigs ran fast down the side of the mountain and into the sea and died. There were about 2, 000.

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 T he men who cared for the pigs ran fast to the town and out to the country telling what had been done. People came to see what had happened.

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 T hey came to Jesus and saw the man who had had the demons. He was sitting with clothes on and in his right mind. The men 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 T hose who had seen it told what had happened to the man who had had the demons. They told what had happened to the pigs.

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

17 T hen they asked Jesus to leave their country.

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

18 J esus got into the boat. The man who had had the demons asked to go with Him.

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

19 J esus would not let him go but said to him, “Go home to your own people. Tell them what great things the Lord has done for you. Tell them how He had pity on you.”

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 T he man went his way and told everyone in the land of Decapolis what great things Jesus had done for him. All the people were surprised and wondered. Two Were Healed through Faith

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

21 T hen Jesus went by boat over to the other side of the sea. Many people gathered around Him. He stayed by the sea-shore.

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 J airus was one of the leaders of the Jewish place of worship. As Jairus came to Jesus, he got 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 H e cried out to Jesus and said, “My little daughter is almost dead. Come and put Your hand on her that she may be healed 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 J esus went with him. Many people followed and pushed around Jesus.

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

25 A woman had been sick for twelve years with a flow of blood.

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

26 S he had suffered much because of having many doctors. She had spent all the money she had. She had received no help, but became 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 S he heard about Jesus and went among the people who were following Him. She touched His coat.

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

28 F or she said to herself, “If I can only touch His coat, I will be healed.”

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

29 A t once the flow of blood stopped. She felt in her body that she was healed of her sickness.

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 t the same time Jesus knew that power had gone from Him. He turned and said to the people following Him, “Who touched My coat?”

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 H is followers said to Him, “You see the many people pushing on every side. Why do You ask, ‘Who touched My coat?’”

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

32 H e looked around to see who had done it.

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

33 T he woman was filled with fear when she knew what had happened to her. She came and got down before Jesus and told Him 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 H e said to her, “Daughter, your faith has healed you. Go in peace and be free from your sickness.”

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

35 W hile Jesus spoke, men came from the house of the leader of the place of worship. They said, “Your daughter is dead. Why trouble the Teacher anymore?”

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 J esus heard this. He said to the leader of the Jewish place of worship, “Do not be afraid, just believe.”

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

37 H e allowed no one to go with Him but 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 T hey came to the house where the leader of the place of worship lived. Jesus found many people making much noise and crying.

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

39 H e went in and asked them, “Why is there so much noise and crying? The girl is not dead. She is sleeping.”

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 T hey laughed at Jesus. But He sent them all out of the room. Then He took the girl’s father and mother and those who were with Him. They went into the room where the girl 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 H e took the girl by the hand and said, “Little girl, I say to you, get up!”

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 t once the girl got up and walked. She was twelve years old. They were very much surprised and wondered about it.

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

43 H e spoke sharp words to them that they should not tell anyone. He told them to give her something 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.
