Mark 5

The Demon-possessed Man Cured

11They cameG2064 to the otherG4008 sideG4008 of the seaG2281, into the regionG5561 of the GerasenesG1086. 2When He gotG1831 outG1831 of 2the boatG4143, immediatelyG2117 a manG444 from the tombsG3419 3with an uncleanG169 spiritG4151 metG5221 Him. 3He livedG2192G2731 amongG1722 the tombsG3418; and noG3762 oneG3762 was ableG1410 to bindG1210 him anymoreG3765, not evenG3761 with a chainG254, 4becauseG1223 he had oftenG4178 been boundG1210 with shacklesG3976 and chainsG254, and the chainsG254 had been tornG1288 apartG1288 by him and the shacklesG3976 brokenG4937 inG4937 piecesG4937; and noG3762 oneG3762 wasG2480 strongG2480 enoughG2480 to subdueG1150 him. 5ConstantlyG1223, nightG3571 and dayG2250, he was screamingG2896 amongG1722 the tombsG3418 and in the mountainsG3735, and cuttingG2629 himselfG1438 with stonesG3037. 6SeeingG3708 JesusG2424 from a distanceG3113, he ranG5143 up and bowedG4352 downG4352 beforeG4352 Him; 7and shoutingG2896 with a loudG3173 voiceG5456, he saidG3004, “45WhatG5101 business do You have with me, JesusG2424, 6SonG5207 of 7the MostG5310 HighG5310 GodG2316? I imploreG3726 You by GodG2316, do not tormentG928 me!” 8For He had already been sayingG3004 to him, “ComeG1831 outG1831 of the manG444, you uncleanG169 spiritG4151!” 9And He was askingG1905 him, “WhatG5101 is your nameG3686?” And he saidG3004 to Him, “My nameG3686 is 8LegionG3003, for we are manyG4183.” 10And he beggedG3870 Him earnestlyG4183 not to sendG649 them outG649 of the regionG5561. 11NowG1161 there was a largeG3173 herdG34 of pigsG5519 feedingG1006 9nearbyG1563 on the mountainG3735. 12And the demons beggedG3870 Him, sayingG3004, “SendG3992 us into the pigsG5519 soG2443 thatG2443 we may enterG1525 them.” 13Jesus gaveG2010 them permissionG2010. And comingG1831 outG1831, the uncleanG169 spiritsG4151 enteredG1525 the pigsG5519; and the herdG34 rushedG3729 downG2596 the steepG2911 bankG2911 into the seaG2281, aboutG5613 twoG1367 thousandG1367 of them; and they were drownedG4155 in the seaG2281.

14Their herdsmenG1006 ranG5343 awayG5343 and reportedG518 it in the cityG4172 and in the countrysideG68. And the people cameG2064 to seeG3708 whatG5101 it was that had happenedG1096. 15And then they cameG2064 to JesusG2424 and sawG2334 the man who had been 10demon-possessedG1139 sittingG2521 downG2521, 11clothedG2439 and 12in his rightG4993 mindG4993, the very man who had previously hadG2192 the “13legionG3003”; and they becameG5399 frightenedG5399. 16ThoseG3588 who had seenG3708 it describedG1334 to them howG4459 it had happenedG1096 to the 14demon-possessedG1139 man, and all aboutG4012 the pigsG5519. 17And they beganG757 to 15begG3870 Him to leaveG565 their regionG3725. 1816And as He was gettingG1684 into the boatG4143, the man who had been 17demon-possessedG1139 was beggingG3870 Him that he might 18accompanyG3326G1510 Him. 19And He did not letG863 him, but He saidG3004 to him, “19GoG5217 homeG3624 to your peopleG4674 and reportG518 to them 20whatG3745 greatG3745 thingsG3745 the LordG2962 has doneG4160 for you, and how He hadG1653 mercyG1653 on you.” 20And he wentG565 awayG565 and beganG757 to 21proclaimG2784 in 22DecapolisG1179 23whatG3745 greatG3745 thingsG3745 JesusG2424 had doneG4160 for him; and everyoneG3956 wasG2296 amazedG2296.

Miracles and Healing

2124When JesusG2424 had crossedG1276 overG1276 againG3825 in 25the boatG4143 to the otherG4008 sideG4008, a largeG4183 crowdG3793 gatheredG4863 aroundG1909 Him; and He 26stayedG1510 27by the seashoreG2281. 2228And oneG1520 of 29the synagogueG752 30officialsG752, namedG3686 JairusG2383, cameG2064, and upon seeingG3708 Him, fellG4098 at His feetG4228 23and pleadedG3870 with Him earnestlyG4183, sayingG3004, “My littleG2365 daughterG2365 is atG2079 theG2079 pointG2079 ofG2079 deathG2079; please comeG2064 and 31layG2007 Your handsG5495 onG2007 her, soG2443 thatG2443 she will 32getG4982 wellG4982 and liveG2198.” 24And He wentG565 offG565 with him; and a largeG4183 crowdG3793 was followingG190 Him and pressingG4918 in on Him.

25A womanG1135 who had hadG1510 a hemorrhageG4511G129 for twelveG1427 yearsG2094, 26and had enduredG3958 muchG4183 atG5259 the handsG5259 of manyG4183 physiciansG2395, and had spentG1159 allG3956 that she hadG3844 and was not helpedG5623 atG3367 allG3367, but insteadG3123 had becomeG2064 worseG5501-- 27after hearingG191 aboutG4012 JesusG2424, she cameG2064 upG2064 in the crowdG3793 behindG3693 Him and touchedG681 His 33cloakG2440. 28For she had been sayingG3004 to herself, “IfG1437 I justG2579 touchG681 His garmentsG2440, I will 34getG4982 wellG4982.” 29And immediatelyG2117 the flowG4077 of her bloodG129 was driedG3583 up; and she feltG1097 in her bodyG4983 that she was healedG2390 of her 35diseaseG3148. 30And immediatelyG2117 JesusG2424, perceivingG1921 in HimselfG1438 that 36powerG1411 from Him had goneG1831 outG1831, turnedG1994 aroundG1994 in the crowdG3793 and saidG3004, “WhoG5101 touchedG681 My garmentsG2440?” 31And His disciplesG3101 saidG3004 to Him, “You seeG991 the crowdG3793 pressingG4918 in on You, and You sayG3004, ‘WhoG5101 touchedG681 Me?’” 32And He lookedG4017 aroundG4017 to seeG3708 the woman who had doneG4160 thisG3778. 33But the womanG1135, fearingG5399 and tremblingG5141, awareG3609 of whatG3739 had happenedG1096 to her, cameG2064 and fellG4363 downG4363 beforeG4363 Him and toldG3004 Him the wholeG3956 truthG225. 34And He saidG3004 to her, “DaughterG2364, 37your faithG4102 has 38madeG4982 you wellG4982; 39goG5217 in peaceG1515 and be curedG5199 of your 40diseaseG3148.”

35While He was stillG2089 speakingG2980, people cameG2064 from the house of the 41synagogueG752 officialG752, sayingG3004, “Your daughterG2364 has diedG599; whyG5101 botherG4660 the TeacherG1320 furtherG2089?” 36But JesusG2424, overhearingG3878 whatG3588G3056 was being spokenG2980, saidG3004 to the 42synagogueG752 officialG752, “43Do not beG5399 afraidG5399, onlyG3440 44believeG4100.” 37And He allowedG863 noG3756G3762 oneG3762 to accompanyG4870 Him exceptG1508 45PeterG4074, 46JamesG2385, and JohnG2491 the brotherG80 of 47JamesG2385. 38They cameG2064 to the houseG3624 of the 48synagogueG752 officialG752, and He sawG2334 a commotionG2351, and people loudlyG4183 weepingG2799 and wailingG214. 39And after enteringG1525, He saidG3004 to them, “WhyG5101 are you makingG2350 aG2350 commotionG2350 and weepingG2799? The childG3813 has not diedG599, but isG2518 asleepG2518.” 40And they began laughingG2606 atG2606 Him. But puttingG1544 them allG3956 outsideG1544, He tookG3880 alongG3880 the child’sG3813 fatherG3962 and motherG3384 and His own companionsG3588G3326, and enteredG1531 the room whereG3699 the childG3813 was in bed. 41And takingG2902 the childG3813 by the handG5495, He saidG3004 to her, “TalithaG5008, kumG2891!” (whichG3739 translatedG3177 meansG1510, “LittleG2877 girlG2877, 49I sayG3004 to you, getG1453 upG1453!”). 42And immediatelyG2117 the girlG2877 gotG450 upG450 and began to walkG4043, for she was twelveG1427 yearsG2094 old. And immediatelyG2117 they were completelyG1611G3173 astonishedG1839. 43And He 50gaveG1291 them strictG4183 ordersG1291 that noG3367 oneG3367 was to knowG1097 about thisG3778, and He toldG3004 them to have something givenG1325 her to eatG2068.
