1And they came to the other side of the sea , into the country of the Gerasenes . 2And when he was come out of the boat , straightway there met him out of the tombs a man with an unclean spirit , 3who had his dwelling in the tombs : and no man could any more bind him , no , not with a chain; 4because 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 . 5And always , night and day , in the tombs and in the mountains , he was crying out , and cutting himself with stones . 6And when he saw Jesus from afar , he ran and worshipped him ; 7and 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 . 8For he said unto him , Come forth , thou unclean spirit , out of the man. 9And he asked him , What is thy name ? And he saith unto him , My name is Legion ; for we are many . 10And he besought him much that he would not send them away out of the country . 11Now there was there on the mountain side a great herd of swine feeding . 12And they besought him , saying , Send us into the swine , that we may enter into them . 13And 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 . 14And 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 . 15And 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 . 16And they that saw it declared unto them how it befell him that was possessed with demons, and concerning the swine . 17And they began to beseech him to depart from their borders . 18And as he was entering into the boat , he that had been possessed with demons besought him that he might be with him . 19And 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. 20And he went his way , and began to publish in Decapolis how great things Jesus had done for him : and all men marvelled .
The Healing of a Woman and the Raising of Jairus' Daughter
21And 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 . 22And there cometh one of the rulers of the synagogue, Jaïrus by name ; and seeing him , he falleth at his feet , 23and 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 . 24And he went with him ; and a great multitude followed him , and they thronged him . 25And a woman , who had an issue of blood twelve years , 26and had suffered many things of many physicians , and had spent all that she had , and was nothing bettered , but rather grew worse , 27having heard the things concerning Jesus , came in the crowd behind , and touched his garment . 28For she said , If I touch but his garments , I shall be made whole . 29And straightway the fountain of her blood was dried up ; and she felt in her body that she was healed of her plague . 30And 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 ? 31And his disciples said unto him , Thou seest the multitude thronging thee, and sayest thou , Who touched me ? 32And he looked round about to see her that had done this thing . 33But the woman fearing and trembling , knowing what had been done to her , came and fell down before him , and told him all the truth. 34And he said unto her , Daughter , thy faith hath made thee whole ; go in peace , and be whole of thy plague . 35While 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 ? 36But Jesus , not heeding the word spoken , saith unto the ruler of the synagogue, Fear not , only believe . 37And he suffered no man to follow with him , save Peter , and James , and John the brother of James . 38And they come to the house of the ruler of the synagogue; and he beholdeth a tumult , and many weeping and wailing greatly . 39And when he was entered in , he saith unto them , Why make ye a tumult, and weep ? the child is not dead, but sleepeth . 40And 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 . 41And taking the child by the hand , he saith unto her , Talitha cumi ; which is , being interpreted , Damsel , I say unto thee, Arise . 42And straightway the damsel rose up , and walked ; for she was twelve years old . And they were amazed straightway with a great amazement . 43And he charged them much that no man should know this : and he commanded that something should be given her to eat .
