Marcos 5

Jesus cura o endemoninhado geraseno

Mateus 8:28-34; Lucas 8:26-39

1 E chegaram ao outro lado do mar, à província dos gadarenos. 2 E, saindo ele do barco, lhe saiu logo ao seu encontro, dos sepulcros, um homem com espírito imundo; 3 O qual tinha a sua morada nos sepulcros, e nem ainda com cadeias o podia alguém prender; 4 Porque, tendo sido muitas vezes preso com grilhões e cadeias, as cadeias foram por ele feitas em pedaços, e os grilhões em migalhas, e ninguém o podia amansar. 5 E andava sempre, de dia e de noite, clamando pelos montes, e pelos sepulcros, e ferindo-se com pedras. 6 E, quando viu Jesus ao longe, correu e adorou-o. 7 E, clamando com grande voz, disse: Que tenho eu contigo, Jesus, Filho do Deus Altíssimo? Conjuro-te por Deus que não me atormentes.

8 (Porque lhe dizia: Sai deste homem, espírito imundo.)

9 E perguntou-lhe: Qual é o teu nome? E lhe respondeu, dizendo: Legião é o meu nome, porque somos muitos.

10 E rogava-lhe muito que os não enviasse para fora daquela província.

11 E andava ali pastando no monte uma grande manada de porcos. 12 E todos aqueles demônios lhe rogaram, dizendo: Manda-nos para aqueles porcos, para que entremos neles.

13 E Jesus logo lho permitiu. E, saindo aqueles espíritos imundos, entraram nos porcos; e a manada se precipitou por um despenhadeiro no mar (eram quase dois mil), e afogaram-se no mar. 14 E os que apascentavam os porcos fugiram, e o anunciaram na cidade e nos campos; e saíram a ver o que era aquilo que tinha acontecido.

15 E foram ter com Jesus, e viram o endemoninhado, o que tivera a legião, assentado, vestido e em perfeito juízo, e temeram. 16 E os que aquilo tinham visto contaram-lhes o que acontecera ao endemoninhado, e acerca dos porcos. 17 E começaram a rogar-lhe que saísse dos seus termos.

18 E, entrando ele no barco, rogava-lhe o que fora endemoninhado que o deixasse estar com ele. 19 Jesus, porém, não lho permitiu, mas disse-lhe: Vai para tua casa, para os teus, e anuncia-lhes quão grandes coisas o Senhor te fez, e como teve misericórdia de ti.

20 E ele foi, e começou a anunciar em Decápolis quão grandes coisas Jesus lhe fizera; e todos se maravilharam.

A súplica de Jairo

Mateus 9:18,19; Lucas 8:40-42

21 E, passando Jesus outra vez num barco para o outro lado, ajuntou-se a ele uma grande multidão; e ele estava junto do mar. 22 E eis que chegou um dos principais da sinagoga, por nome Jairo, e, vendo-o, prostrou-se aos seus pés, 23 E rogava-lhe muito, dizendo: Minha filha está à morte; rogo-te que venhas e lhe imponhas as mãos, para que sare, e viva.

24 E foi com ele, e seguia-o uma grande multidão, que o apertava.

Jesus cura uma mulher enferma

Mateus 9:20-22; Lucas 8:42-48

25 E certa mulher que, havia doze anos, tinha um fluxo de sangue, 26 E que havia padecido muito com muitos médicos, e despendido tudo quanto tinha, nada lhe aproveitando isso, antes indo a pior; 27 Ouvindo falar de Jesus, veio por detrás, entre a multidão, e tocou na sua veste. 28 Porque dizia: Se tão somente tocar nas suas vestes, sararei. 29 E logo se lhe secou a fonte do seu sangue; e sentiu no seu corpo estar já curada daquele mal. 30 E logo Jesus, conhecendo que poder de si mesmo saíra, voltou-se para a multidão, e disse: Quem tocou nas minhas vestes?

31 E disseram-lhe os seus discípulos: Vês que a multidão te aperta, e dizes: Quem me tocou?

32 E ele olhava em redor, para ver a que isto fizera. 33 Então a mulher, que sabia o que lhe tinha acontecido, temendo e tremendo, aproximou-se, e prostrou-se diante dele, e disse-lhe toda a verdade. 34 E ele lhe disse: Filha, a tua fé te salvou; vai em paz, e sê curada deste teu mal.

A filha de Jairo torna a viver

Mateus 9:23-26; Lucas 8:49-56

35 Estando ele ainda falando, chegaram alguns do principal da sinagoga, a quem disseram: A tua filha está morta; para que enfadas mais o Mestre?

36 E Jesus, tendo ouvido estas palavras, disse ao principal da sinagoga: Não temas, crê somente.

37 E não permitiu que alguém o seguisse, a não ser Pedro, Tiago, e João, irmão de Tiago. 38 E, tendo chegado à casa do principal da sinagoga, viu o alvoroço, e os que choravam muito e pranteavam. 39 E, entrando, disse-lhes: Por que vos alvoroçais e chorais? A menina não está morta, mas dorme.

40 E riam-se dele; porém ele, tendo-os feito sair, tomou consigo o pai e a mãe da menina, e os que com ele estavam, e entrou onde a menina estava deitada. 41 E, tomando a mão da menina, disse-lhe: Talita cumi; que, traduzido, é: Menina, a ti te digo, levanta-te.

42 E logo a menina se levantou, e andava, pois já tinha doze anos; e assombraram-se com grande espanto. 43 E mandou-lhes expressamente que ninguém o soubesse; e disse que lhe dessem de comer.

1 And they came to the other side of the sea, into the country of the Gerasenes. 2 And when he was come out of the boat, straightway there met him out of the tombs a man with an unclean spirit, 3 who had his dwelling in the tombs: and no man could any more bind him, no, not with a chain; 4 because 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. 5 And always, night and day, in the tombs and in the mountains, he was crying out, and cutting himself with stones. 6 And when he saw Jesus from afar, he ran and worshipped him; 7 and 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. 8 For he said unto him, Come forth, thou unclean spirit, out of the man. 9 And he asked him, What is thy name? And he saith unto him, My name is Legion; for we are many. 10 And he besought him much that he would not send them away out of the country. 11 Now there was there on the mountain side a great herd of swine feeding. 12 And they besought him, saying, Send us into the swine, that we may enter into them. 13 And 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. 14 And 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. 15 And 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. 16 And they that saw it declared unto them how it befell him that was possessed with demons, and concerning the swine. 17 And they began to beseech him to depart from their borders. 18 And as he was entering into the boat, he that had been possessed with demons besought him that he might be with him. 19 And 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. 20 And he went his way, and began to publish in Decapolis how great things Jesus had done for him: and all men marvelled.

21 And 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. 22 And there cometh one of the rulers of the synagogue, Jaïrus by name; and seeing him, he falleth at his feet, 23 and 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. 24 And he went with him; and a great multitude followed him, and they thronged him.

25 And a woman, who had an issue of blood twelve years, 26 and had suffered many things of many physicians, and had spent all that she had, and was nothing bettered, but rather grew worse, 27 having heard the things concerning Jesus, came in the crowd behind, and touched his garment. 28 For she said, If I touch but his garments, I shall be made whole. 29 And straightway the fountain of her blood was dried up; and she felt in her body that she was healed of her plague. 30 And 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? 31 And his disciples said unto him, Thou seest the multitude thronging thee, and sayest thou, Who touched me? 32 And he looked round about to see her that had done this thing. 33 But the woman fearing and trembling, knowing what had been done to her, came and fell down before him, and told him all the truth. 34 And he said unto her, Daughter, thy faith hath made thee whole; go in peace, and be whole of thy plague.

35 While 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? 36 But Jesus, not heeding the word spoken, saith unto the ruler of the synagogue, Fear not, only believe. 37 And he suffered no man to follow with him, save Peter, and James, and John the brother of James. 38 And they come to the house of the ruler of the synagogue; and he beholdeth a tumult, and many weeping and wailing greatly. 39 And when he was entered in, he saith unto them, Why make ye a tumult, and weep? the child is not dead, but sleepeth. 40 And 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. 41 And taking the child by the hand, he saith unto her, Talitha cumi; which is, being interpreted, Damsel, I say unto thee, Arise. 42 And straightway the damsel rose up, and walked; for she was twelve years old. And they were amazed straightway with a great amazement. 43 And he charged them much that no man should know this: and he commanded that something should be given her to eat.
