And as soon as He got out of the boat, there met Him out of the tombs a man of an unclean spirit.

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

This man continually lived among the tombs, and no one could subdue him any more, even with a chain;

4 b ecause 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,

For he had been bound often with shackles for the feet and handcuffs, but the handcuffs of chains he wrenched apart, and the shackles he rubbed and ground together and broke in pieces; and no one had strength enough to restrain or tame him.

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

Night and day among the tombs and on the mountains he was always shrieking and screaming and beating and bruising and cutting himself with stones.

6 A nd, having seen Jesus from afar, he ran and bowed before him,

7 a nd 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!'

And crying out with a loud voice, he said, What have You to do with me, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I solemnly implore you by God, do not begin to torment me!

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

For Jesus was commanding, Come out of the man, you unclean spirit!

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

And He asked him, What is your name? He replied, My name is Legion, for we are many.

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

And he kept begging Him urgently not to send them away out of that region.

11 A nd there was there, near the mountains, a great herd of swine feeding,

Now a great herd of hogs was grazing there on the hillside.

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

And the demons begged Him, saying, Send us to the hogs, that we may go into them!

13 a nd 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.

So He gave them permission. And the unclean spirits came out and entered into the hogs; and the herd, numbering about 2, 000, rushed headlong down the steep slope into the sea and were drowned in the sea.

14 A nd 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;

And they came to Jesus and looked intently and searchingly at the man who had been a demoniac, sitting there, clothed and in his right mind, who had had the legion; and they were seized with alarm and struck with fear.

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

And those who had seen it related in full what had happened to the man possessed by demons and to the hogs.

17 a nd they began to call upon him to go away from their borders.

And they began to beg to leave their neighborhood.

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

And when He had stepped into the boat, the man who had been controlled by the unclean spirits kept begging Him that he might be with Him.

19 a nd 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;

But Jesus refused to permit him, but said to him, Go home to your own and bring back word to them of how much the Lord has done for you, and had sympathy for you and mercy on you.

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

And he departed and began to publicly proclaim in Decapolis how much Jesus had done for him, and all the people were astonished and marveled.

21 A nd 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,

And when Jesus had recrossed in the boat to the other side, a great throng gathered about Him, and He was at the lakeshore.

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

Then one of the rulers of the synagogue came up, Jairus by name; and seeing Him, he prostrated himself at His feet

23 a nd 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;'

And begged Him earnestly, saying, My little daughter is at the point of death. Come and lay Your hands on her, so that she may be healed and live.

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

And Jesus went with him; and a great crowd kept following Him and pressed Him from all sides.

25 a nd a certain woman, having an issue of blood twelve years,

And there was a woman who had had a flow of blood for twelve years,

26 a nd 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,

And who had endured much suffering under many physicians and had spent all that she had, and was no better but instead grew worse.

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

She had heard the reports concerning Jesus, and she came up behind Him in the throng and touched His garment,

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

For she kept saying, If I only touch His garments, I shall be restored to health.

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

And immediately her flow of blood was dried up at the source, and '> suddenly] she felt in her body that she was healed of her '> distressing] ailment.

30 A nd 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?'

And Jesus, recognizing in Himself that the power proceeding from Him had gone forth, turned around immediately in the crowd and said, Who touched My clothes?

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

And the disciples kept saying to Him, You see the crowd pressing hard around You from all sides, and You ask, Who touched Me?

32 A nd he was looking round to see her who did this,

Still He kept looking around to see her who had done it.

33 a nd 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,

But the woman, knowing what had been done for her, though alarmed and frightened and trembling, fell down before Him and told Him the whole truth.

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

And He said to her, Daughter, your faith (your trust and confidence in Me, springing from faith in God) has restored you to health. Go in (into) peace and be continually healed and freed from your '> distressing bodily] disease.

35 A s 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?'

While He was still speaking, there came some from the ruler’s house, who said, Your daughter has died. Why bother and distress the Teacher any further?

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

Overhearing but ignoring what they said, Jesus said to the ruler of the synagogue, Do not be seized with alarm and struck with fear; only keep on believing.

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

And He permitted no one to accompany Him except Peter and James and John the brother of James.

When they arrived at the house of the ruler of the synagogue, He looked at tumult and the people weeping and wailing loudly.

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

And when He had gone in, He said to them, Why do you make an uproar and weep? The little girl is not dead but is sleeping.

And they laughed and jeered at Him. But He put them all out, and, taking the child’s father and mother and those who were with Him, He went in where the little girl was lying.

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

Gripping her by the hand, He said to her, Talitha cumi—which translated is, Little girl, I say to you, arise '> from the sleep of death]!

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