And they came over unto the other side of the sea, into the country of the Gadarenes.

On the other side of the sea, they arrived in the region of the Gerasenes.

And when he was come out of the ship, immediately there met him out of the tombs a man with an unclean spirit,

As soon as Jesus got out of the boat, He was met by a man with an unclean spirit, who was coming from the tombs.

Who had his dwelling among the tombs; and no man could bind him, no, not with chains:

This man had been living in the tombs and could no longer be restrained, even with chains.

Because that he had been often bound with fetters and chains, and the chains had been plucked asunder by him, and the fetters broken in pieces: neither could any man tame him.

Though he was often bound with chains and shackles, he had broken the chains and shattered the shackles. Now there was no one with the strength to subdue him.

And always, night and day, he was in the mountains, and in the tombs, crying, and cutting himself with stones.

Night and day in the tombs and in the mountains he kept crying out and cutting himself with stones.

But when he saw Jesus afar off, he ran and worshipped him,

When the man saw Jesus from a distance, he ran and fell on his knees before Him.

And cried with a loud voice, and said, What have I to do with thee, Jesus, thou Son of the most high God? I adjure thee by God, that thou torment me not.

And he shouted in a loud voice, “What do You want with me, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I beg You before God not to torture me!”

For he said unto him, Come out of the man, thou unclean spirit.

For Jesus had already declared, “Come out of this man, you unclean spirit!”

And he asked him, What is thy name? And he answered, saying, My name is Legion: for we are many.

“What is your name?” Jesus asked. “My name is Legion,” he replied, “for we are many.”

And he besought him much that he would not send them away out of the country.

And he begged Jesus repeatedly not to send them out of that region.

Now there was there nigh unto the mountains a great herd of swine feeding.

There on the nearby hillside a large herd of pigs was feeding.

And all the devils besought him, saying, Send us into the swine, that we may enter into them.

So the demons begged Jesus, “Send us to the pigs, so that we may enter them.”

And forthwith Jesus gave them leave. And the unclean spirits went out, and entered into the swine: and the herd ran violently down a steep place into the sea, (they were about two thousand;) and were choked in the sea.

He gave them permission, and the unclean spirits came out and went into the pigs, and the herd of about two thousand rushed down the steep bank into the sea and drowned in the water.

And they that fed the swine fled, and told it in the city, and in the country. And they went out to see what it was that was done.

Those tending the pigs ran off and reported this in the town and countryside, and the people went out to see what had happened.

And they come to Jesus, and see him that was possessed with the devil, and had the legion, sitting, and clothed, and in his right mind: and they were afraid.

When they came to Jesus, they saw the man who had been possessed by the legion of demons sitting there, clothed and in his right mind; and they were afraid.

And they that saw it told them how it befell to him that was possessed with the devil, and also concerning the swine.

Those who had seen it described what had happened to the demon-possessed man and also to the pigs.

And they began to pray him to depart out of their coasts.

And the people began to beg Jesus to leave their region.

And when he was come into the ship, he that had been possessed with the devil prayed him that he might be with him.

As He was getting into the boat, the man who had been possessed by the demons begged to go with Him.

Howbeit Jesus suffered him not, but saith unto him, Go home to thy friends, and tell them how great things the Lord hath done for thee, and hath had compassion on thee.

But Jesus would not allow him. “Go home to your own people,” He said, “and tell them how much the Lord has done for you, and what mercy He has shown you.”

And he departed, and began to publish in Decapolis how great things Jesus had done for him: and all men did marvel.

So the man went away and began to proclaim throughout the Decapolis how much Jesus had done for him. And everyone was amazed.

And when Jesus was passed over again by ship unto the other side, much people gathered unto him: and he was nigh unto the sea.

When Jesus had again crossed by boat to the other side, a large crowd gathered around Him beside the sea.

And, behold, there cometh one of the rulers of the synagogue, Jairus by name; and when he saw him, he fell at his feet,

A synagogue leader named Jairus arrived, and seeing Jesus, he fell at His feet

And besought him greatly, saying, My little daughter lieth at the point of death: I pray thee, come and lay thy hands on her, that she may be healed; and she shall live.

and pleaded with Him urgently, “My little daughter is near death. Please come and place Your hands on her, so that she will be healed and live.”

And Jesus went with him; and much people followed him, and thronged him.

So Jesus went with him, and a large crowd followed and pressed around Him.

And a certain woman, which had an issue of blood twelve years,

And a woman was there who had suffered from bleeding for twelve years.

And had suffered many things of many physicians, and had spent all that she had, and was nothing bettered, but rather grew worse,

She had borne much agony under the care of many physicians and had spent all she had, but to no avail. Instead, her condition had only grown worse.

When she had heard of Jesus, came in the press behind, and touched his garment.

When the woman heard about Jesus, she came up through the crowd behind Him and touched His cloak.

For she said, If I may touch but his clothes, I shall be whole.

For she kept saying, “If only I touch His garments, I will be healed.”

And straightway the fountain of her blood was dried up; and she felt in her body that she was healed of that plague.

Immediately her bleeding stopped, and she sensed in her body that she was healed of her affliction.

And Jesus, immediately knowing in himself that virtue had gone out of him, turned him about in the press, and said, Who touched my clothes?

At once Jesus was aware that power had gone out from Him. Turning to the crowd, He asked, “Who touched My garments?”

And his disciples said unto him, Thou seest the multitude thronging thee, and sayest thou, Who touched me?

His disciples answered, “You can see the crowd pressing in on You, and yet You ask, ‘Who touched Me?’”

And he looked round about to see her that had done this thing.

But He kept looking around to see who had done this.

But the woman fearing and trembling, knowing what was done in her, came and fell down before him, and told him all the truth.

Then the woman, knowing what had happened to her, came and fell down before Him trembling in fear, and she told Him the whole truth.

And he said unto her, Daughter, thy faith hath made thee whole; go in peace, and be whole of thy plague.

“Daughter,” said Jesus, “your faith has healed you. Go in peace and be free of your affliction.”

While he yet spake, there came from the ruler of the synagogue’s house certain which said, Thy daughter is dead: why troublest thou the Master any further?

While He was still speaking, messengers from the house of Jairus arrived and said, “Your daughter is dead; why bother the Teacher anymore?”

As soon as Jesus heard the word that was spoken, he saith unto the ruler of the synagogue, Be not afraid, only believe.

But Jesus overheard their conversation and said to Jairus, “Do not be afraid; just believe.”

And he suffered no man to follow him, save Peter, and James, and John the brother of James.

And He did not allow anyone to accompany Him except Peter, James, and John the brother of James.

And he cometh to the house of the ruler of the synagogue, and seeth the tumult, and them that wept and wailed greatly.

When they arrived at the house of the synagogue leader, Jesus saw the commotion and the people weeping and wailing loudly.

And when he was come in, he saith unto them, Why make ye this ado, and weep? the damsel is not dead, but sleepeth.

He went inside and asked, “Why all this commotion and weeping? The child is not dead, but asleep.”

And they laughed him to scorn. But when he had put them all out, he taketh the father and the mother of the damsel, and them that were with him, and entereth in where the damsel was lying.

And they laughed at Him. After He had put them all outside, He took the child’s father and mother and His own companions, and went in to see the child.

And he took the damsel by the hand, and said unto her, Talitha cumi; which is, being interpreted, Damsel, I say unto thee, arise.

Taking her by the hand, Jesus said, “Talitha koum!” which means, “Little girl, I say to you, get up!”

And straightway the damsel arose, and walked; for she was of the age of twelve years. And they were astonished with a great astonishment.

Immediately the girl got up and began to walk around. She was twelve years old, and at once they were utterly astounded.

And he charged them straitly that no man should know it; and commanded that something should be given her to eat.

Then Jesus gave strict orders that no one should know about this, and He told them to give her something to eat.
