1 They came to the other side of the sea, into the country of the Gadarenes. 2 When he had come out of the boat, immediately a man with an unclean spirit met him out of the tombs. 3 He lived in the tombs. Nobody could bind him any more, not even with chains, 4 because he had been often bound with fetters and chains, and the chains had been torn apart by him, and the fetters broken in pieces. Nobody had the strength to tame him. 5 Always, night and day, in the tombs and in the mountains, he was crying out, and cutting himself with stones. 6 When he saw Yeshua from afar, he ran and bowed down to him, 7 and crying out with a loud voice, he said, "What have I to do with you, Yeshua, you Son of the Most High God? I adjure you by God, don’t torment me." 8 For he said to him, "Come out of the man, you unclean spirit!"

9 He asked him, "What is your name?"

He said to him, "My name is Legion, for we are many." 10 He begged him much that he would not send them away out of the country. 11 Now on the mountainside there was a great herd of pigs feeding. 12 All the demons begged him, saying, "Send us into the pigs, that we may enter into them."

13 At once Yeshua gave them permission. The unclean spirits came out and entered into the pigs. The herd of about two thousand rushed down the steep bank into the sea, and they were drowned in the sea. 14 Those who fed the pigs fled, and told it in the city and in the country.

The people came to see what it was that had happened. 15 They came to Yeshua, and saw him who had been possessed by demons sitting, clothed, and in his right mind, even him who had the legion; and they were afraid. 16 Those who saw it declared to them what happened to him who was possessed by demons, and about the pigs. 17 They began to beg him to depart from their region.

18 As he was entering into the boat, he who had been possessed by demons begged him that he might be with him. 19 He didn’t allow him, but said to him, "Go to your house, to your friends, and tell them what great things the Lord has done for you, and how he had mercy on you."

20 He went his way, and began to proclaim in Decapolis how Yeshua had done great things for him, and everyone marveled.

21 When Yeshua had crossed back over in the boat to the other side, a great multitude was gathered to him; and he was by the sea. 22 Behold, one of the rulers of the synagogue, Jairus by name, came; and seeing him, he fell at his feet, 23 and begged him much, saying, "My little daughter is at the point of death. Please come and lay your hands on her, that she may be made healthy, and live."

24 He went with him, and a great multitude followed him, and they pressed upon him on all sides. 25 A certain woman, who had a discharge of blood for twelve years, 26 and had suffered many things by many physicians, and had spent all that she had, and was no better, but rather grew worse, 27 having heard the things concerning Yeshua, came up behind him in the crowd, and touched his clothes. 28 For she said, "If I just touch his clothes, I will be made well." 29 Immediately the flow of her blood was dried up, and she felt in her body that she was healed of her affliction.

30 Immediately Yeshua, perceiving in himself that the power had gone out from him, turned around in the crowd, and asked, "Who touched my clothes?"

31 His disciples said to him, "You see the multitude pressing against you, and you say, ‘Who touched me?’"

32 He looked around to see her who 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 He said to her, "Daughter, your faith has made you well. Go in peace, and be cured of your disease."

35 While he was still speaking, people came from the synagogue ruler’s house saying, "Your daughter is dead. Why bother the Rabbi any more?"

36 But Yeshua, when he heard the message spoken, immediately said to the ruler of the synagogue, "Don’t be afraid, only believe." 37 He allowed no one to follow him, except Peter, Jacob, and Yochanan the brother of Jacob. 38 He came to the synagogue ruler’s house, and he saw an uproar, weeping, and great wailing. 39 When he had entered in, he said to them, "Why do you make an uproar and weep? The child is not dead, but is asleep."

40 They ridiculed him. But he, having put them all out, took the father of the child, her mother, and those who were with him, and went in where the child was lying. 41 Taking the child by the hand, he said to her, "Talitha cumi!" which means, being interpreted, "Girl, I tell you, get up!" 42 Immediately the girl rose up and walked, for she was twelve years old. They were amazed with great amazement. 43 He strictly ordered them that no one should know this, and commanded that something should be given to her to eat.

1 Then they crossed the sea, and came into the country of the Gadarenes.2 He was no sooner gone ashore, than there met him a man coming from the monuments, possessed of an unclean spirit,3 who made his abode in the tombs; and no man could confine him, not even with chains,4 and broken the fetters, so that no person was able to tame him.5 He was continually, night and day, in the mountains, and in the tombs, howling, and cutting himself with flints.6 But when he saw Jesus afar off, he ran, and prostrating himself before him,7 cried out, What hast thou to do with me, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I conjure thee by God not to torment me.8 (For Jesus had said to him, Come out of the man, you unclean spirit.)9 Jesus asked him, What is your name? He answered, My name is Legion, for we are many.10 And he earnestly entreated him not to drive them out of the country.11 Now there was a great herd of swine feeding on the mountain.12 And the fiends besought him, saying, Suffer us to go to the swine, that we may enter into them.13 Jesus immediately permitted them. Then the unclean spirits being gone out, entered into the swine; and the herd, in number about two thousand, rushed down a precipice into the sea, and were choked.14 And the swineherds fled, and told it in the city and villages. And the people flocked out to see what had happened.15 When they came to Jesus, and saw him who had been possessed by the legion, sitting, and clothed, and in his right mind, they were afraid.16 And those who had seen the whole, having related to them what had happened to the demoniac, and to the swine,17 they entreated him to leave their territories.18 As he entered the bark, the man who had been possessed, begged permission to attend him.19 Jesus however did not permit him, but said, Go home to your relations, and tell them what great things the Lord, in pity, has done for you.20 Accordingly he departed, publishing in Decapolis, what great things Jesus had done for him. And they were all amazed.21 Jesus having repassed in the bark, a great crowd gathered round him, while he was on the shore.22 Then came one of the directors of the synagogue, named Jairus, who seeing him threw himself at his feet,23 and entreated him earnestly, saying, My little daughter is in extreme danger; I pray you come and lay your hands upon her and to heal her, and she will be well.24 And Jesus went with him, followed by a great multitude who thronged him.25 And a woman, who had been twelve years distressed with an issue of blood,26 who had suffered much from several physicians, and spent her all without receiving any relief, but rather growing worse,27 having heard of Jesus, came in the crowd, behind, and touched his mantle;28 for she had said, If I but touch his cloths, I shall recover.29 Instantly the source of her distemper was dried up, and she felt in her body, that she was delivered from that scourge.30 Jesus immediately, conscious of the virtue which had issued from him, turned toward the crowd, saying, Who touched my clothes?31 His disciples answered, You see how the multitude throng you; yet you say, Who touched me?32 But he looked round him, to see her who had done it.33 Then the woman, knowing the change wrought upon her, came trembling with fear, threw herself prostrate before him, and confessed the whole truth.34 But he said to her, Daughter, your faith has cured you; go in peace, released from this scourge.35 Before he had done speaking, messengers came from the house of the director of the synagogue, who said, Your daughter is dead, why should you trouble the teacher any further?36 Jesus hearing this message delivered, said immediately to the director, Fear not; only believe.37 And he allowed no person to follow him except Peter and James, and John, the brother of James.38 Being arrived at the director's house, and seeing the tumult, and the people weeping and wailing immoderately,39 he said to them, as he entered, Why do you weep and make a bustle? The child is not dead, but asleep.40 And they derided him. But having made them all go out, he took with him the child's father and mother, and those who came with him; and he entered the chamber where she was;41 and, taking her by the hand, said to her, Talitha cumi, (which signified, Young woman, arise,) I command you.42 Immediately the maid arose and walked, for she was twelve years old; and they were confounded with astonishment.43 But he strictly enjoined them not to mention it to any person, and ordered that something should be given her to eat.
