1 Tedy přeplavili se přes moře do krajiny Gadarenských.

2 A jakž vyšel z lodí, hned se s ním potkal člověk z hrobů, maje ducha nečistého.

3 Kterýž bydlil v hrobích, a aniž ho kdo již mohl řetězy svázati,

4 Nebo často jsa pouty a řetězy okován, polámal řetězy a pouta roztrhal, a žádný nemohl ho zkrotiti.

5 A vždycky ve dne i v noci na horách a v hrobích byl, křiče a tepa se kamením.

6 Uzřev pak Ježíše zdaleka, běžel a poklonil se jemu,

7 A křiče hlasem velikým, řekl: Co jest tobě do mne, Ježíši, Synu Boha nejvyššího? Zaklínám tě skrze Boha, abys mne netrápil.

8 (Nebo pravil jemu: Vyjdiž, duchu nečistý, z člověka tohoto.)

9 I otázal se ho: Jakť říkají? A on odpovídaje, řekl: Množství jméno mé jest, neb jest nás mnoho.

10 I prosil ho velmi, aby jich nevyháněl z té krajiny.

11 Bylo pak tu při horách stádo vepřů veliké pasoucích se.

12 I prosili ho všickni ti ďáblové, řkouce: Pusť nás do vepřů, ať do nich vejdeme.

13 I povolil jim hned Ježíš. A vyšedše duchové nečistí, vešli do vepřů. I běželo to stádo s vrchu dolů do moře, (a bylo jich ke dvěma tisícům,) i ztonuli v moři.

14 Ti pak, kteříž ty vepře pásli, utekli a oznámili to v městě i ve vsech. I vyšli lidé, aby viděli, co je se to stalo.

15 I přišli k Ježíšovi, a uzřeli toho, kterýž byl trápen od ďábelství, an sedí, odín jsa a maje zdravý rozum, toho totiž, kterýž měl tmu ďáblů. I báli se.

16 A kteříž to viděli, vypravovali jim, kterak se stalo tomu, kterýž měl ďábelství, i o vepřích.

17 Tedy počali ho prositi, aby odšel z krajin jejich.

18 A když vstoupil na lodí, prosil ho ten, kterýž trápen byl od ďábelství, aby byl s ním.

19 Ježíš pak nedopustil mu, ale řekl jemu: Jdi k svým do domu svého, a zvěstuj jim, kterak jest veliké věci učinil tobě Hospodin, a slitoval se nad tebou.

20 I odšel, a počal ohlašovati v krajině Desíti měst, kterak veliké věci učinil mu Ježíš. I divili se všickni.

21 A když se přeplavil Ježíš na lodí zase na druhou stranu, sšel se k němu zástup mnohý. A on byl u moře.

22 A aj, přišel jeden z knížat školy Židovské, jménem Jairus, a uzřev jej, padl k nohám jeho,

23 A velmi ho prosil, řka: Dcerka má skonává. Prosím, pojď, vlož na ni ruce, aby uzdravena byla, a budeť živa.

24 I šel s ním, a zástup mnohý šel za ním, i tiskli jej.

25 (Tedy žena jedna, kteráž tok krve měla dvanácte let,

26 A mnoho byla trápena od mnohých lékařů, a vynaložila všecken statek svůj, a nic jí bylo neprospělo, ale vždy se hůře měla,

27 Uslyšavši o Ježíšovi, přišla v zástupu pozadu, a dotkla se roucha jeho.

28 Neb řekla byla: Dotknu-li se jen roucha jeho, uzdravena budu.

29 A hned přestal jest krvotok její, a pocítila na těle, že by uzdravena byla od neduhu svého.

30 A hned Ježíš poznav sám v sobě, že jest moc vyšla z něho k uzdravení, obrátiv se v zástupu, řekl: Kdo se dotekl roucha mého?

31 I řekli mu učedlníci jeho: Vidíš, že tě zástup tiskne, a pravíš: Kdo se mne dotekl?

32 I hleděl vůkol, aby ji uzřel, která jest to učinila.

33 Ta pak žena s bázní a s třesením, věduci, co se stalo při ní, přistoupila a padla před ním, a pověděla mu všecku pravdu.

34 On pak řekl jí: Dcero, víra tvá tě uzdravila, jdiž u pokoji, a buď zproštěna od trápení svého.)

35 A když on ještě mluvil, přišli někteří z domu knížete školy, řkouce: Dcera tvá umřela, proč již zaměstknáváš Mistra?

36 Ježíš pak, hned jakž uslyšel to, což oni mluvili, řekl knížeti školy: Neboj se, toliko věř.

37 I nedal žádnému za sebou jíti, jediné Petrovi, Jakubovi a Janovi, bratru Jakubovu.

38 I přišel do domu knížete školy, a viděl tam hluk, ano plačí a kvílí velmi.

39 I všed tam, řekl jim: Co se bouříte a plačete? Neumřelať jest děvečka, ale spí.

40 I posmívali se jemu. On pak vyhnav všecky, pojal toliko otce a matku děvečky, a ty, kteříž s ním byli, i všel tam, kdež děvečka ležela.

41 A vzav ruku děvečky, řekl jí: Talitha kumi, jenž se vykládá: Děvečko, (toběť pravím,) vstaň.

42 A hned vstala děvečka, a chodila; nebo byla ve dvanácti letech. I zděsili se divením převelikým.

43 A přikázal jim pilně, aby žádný o tom nezvěděl. I rozkázal jí dáti jísti.

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, Jairus 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.
