1. And they arrived at the far side of the sea, in the region of the Gerasenes.
2. And when he came out of the boat, immediately a man with an unclean spirit met him from the tombs.
3. who had a dwelling in the tombs, and no one could bind him any longer, not even with a chain.
4. because he had often been bound with fetters and chains, and the chains had been wrenched apart by him and the fetters crushed to pieces, and no one could subdue him.
5. Night and day, in the tombs and mountains, he was crying out and cutting himself with stones.
6. And when he saw Jesus from afar, he ran and worshiped him.
7. And crying out with a loud voice, he said, "What do you have to do with me, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I adjure you by God not to torment me."
8. For he said to him, "Come out of the man, unclean spirit!"
9. And he asked him, “What is your name?” And he said to him, “My name is Legion, for we are many.”
10. And he begged him earnestly that he would not send them out of the region.
11. Now there was near the mountain a large herd of pigs feeding.
12. And they begged him, saying, "Send us into the pigs, so that we may enter them."
13. He permitted them, and the unclean spirits went out and entered the swine; the herd rushed down the cliff into the sea—about two thousand—and choked in the sea.
14. Those who were feeding them fled and reported it in the city and countryside. They came to see what had happened.
15. They came to Jesus and saw the demon-possessed man sitting clothed and in his right mind, the one who had the legion, and they were afraid.
16. And those who had seen it told them how it happened to the demon-possessed man, and about the pigs.
17. And they began pleading with him to depart from their borders.
18. As he was getting into the boat, the man who had been demonized begged him that he might be with him.
19. He did not allow him, but said to him, "Go home to your own people and tell them all that the Lord has done for you, and how he showed you mercy."
20. He departed and began proclaiming in the Decapolis how much Jesus had done for him, and everyone marveled.
21. And when Jesus had crossed over again in the boat to the other side, a great crowd gathered around him, and he was beside the sea.
22. And one of the synagogue rulers named Jairus came, and seeing him, he fell at his feet.
23. And he begged him earnestly, saying, "My little daughter is at the point of death—come and put your hands on her, so that she may be healed and live."
24. And he went with him, and a great crowd was following him, and they were pressing him.
25. And a woman who had a flow of blood for twelve years,
26. and had suffered many things from many physicians and spent everything she possessed, profiting nothing but rather growing worse,
27. When she heard about Jesus, she came up behind him in the crowd and touched his garment.
28. For she kept saying, "If I touch even his clothes, I will be healed."
29. And immediately the source of her blood dried up, and she realized in her body that she was healed from the scourge.
30. And immediately Jesus, perceiving in himself that the power had gone out from him, turned around in the crowd and said, "Who touched my clothes?"
31. And his disciples said to him, "You see the crowd pressing you, and you say, 'Who touched me?'"
32. And he looked around to see the one who had done this.
33. But the woman, gripped by fear and trembling, knowing what had happened to her, came and fell prostrate before him and told him the whole truth.
34. And he said to her, “Daughter, your faith has healed you; go in peace, and be whole from your plague.”
35. While he was still speaking, some from the ruler of the synagogue came saying, "Your daughter died—why do you still trouble the teacher?"
36. But Jesus, overhearing the message being spoken, said to the synagogue ruler, "Do not fear—only believe."
37. And he let no one follow along with him except Peter, James, and John the brother of James.
38. And they came to the house of the ruler of the synagogue, and he saw the uproar, many weeping and wailing.
39. And when he entered, he said to them, “Why are you making a commotion and weeping? The child is not dead, but sleeps.”
40. They laughed at him, but he put them all out, took the child's father and mother and those with him, and entered where the child was.
41. And grasping the child's hand, he said to her, "Talitha kum," which being interpreted is, "Girl, I say to you, arise."
42. Immediately the girl arose and began walking, for she was twelve years old, and they were immediately overcome with great amazement.
43. And he sternly charged them that no one learn of this, and directed that something be given her to eat.
