They went
across the lake
to the region of the Gerasenes.
When Jesus got
out of the boat,
a man
with an evil spirit
came
from the tombs
to meet him.
<-
This man lived
in the tombs,
and no one could bind
him
any more,
not even with a chain.
For he had often been chained
hand and foot,
but he tore
the chains apart
and broke
the irons
on his feet.
No one was strong enough
to subdue
him.
Night and day
among the tombs
and in the hills
he would cry out
and cut
himself
with stones.
When he saw
Jesus
from a distance,
he ran
and fell
on his knees
in front of him.
He shouted
at the top of his voice,
"What do you want
with me,
Jesus,
Son of the Most High God?
Swear
to God
that you won't torture
me!"
For Jesus had said
to him,
"Come out
of this man,
you evil spirit!"
Then Jesus asked
him,
"What is your name?"
"My name is Legion,"
he replied,
"for we are many."
And he begged
Jesus
again and again
not to send them
out of the area.
A large herd of pigs
was feeding
on the nearby hillside.
The demons begged
Jesus,
"Send
us
among the pigs;
allow
us
to go
into them."
He gave
them permission,
and the evil spirits came out
and went
into the pigs.
The herd,
about two thousand in number,
rushed
down the steep bank
into the lake
and were drowned.
Those
tending the pigs
ran off and reported
this
in the town and countryside,
and the people went out
to see
what had happened.
When they came
to Jesus,
they saw
the man
who had been possessed
by the legion of demons,
sitting there,
dressed
and in his right mind;
and they were afraid.
Those
who had seen it
told
the people
what had happened
to the demon-possessed man--
and told
about the pigs
as well.
Then the people began
to plead
with Jesus
to leave their region.
<
As Jesus was getting
into the boat,
the man
who had been demon-possessed
begged
to go with him.
Jesus did not let
him,
but said,
"Go
home
to your family
and tell
them
how much the Lord has done
for you,
and how he has had
mercy
on you."
So the man went away
and began
to tell
in the Decapolishow
much
Jesus had done
for him.
And all the people were amazed.
When Jesus had again crossed over
by boat
to the other side of the lake,
a large crowd gathered
around him
while he was
by the lake.
Then one of the synagogue rulers,
named Jairus,
came
there.
Seeing Jesus,
he fell
at his feet
and pleaded
earnestly
with him,
"My little daughter is dying.
Please come and put
your hands
on her
so that she will be healed and live."
So Jesus went
with him.
A large crowd followed and pressed
around him.
And a woman was
there
who had been subject
to bleeding
for twelve years.
She had suffered
a great deal
under the care of many doctors
and had spent
all she had,
yet instead of getting better
she grew worse.
When she heard
about Jesus,
she came up
behind him in the crowd
and touched
his cloak,
because she thought,
"If I just touch
his clothes,
I will be healed."
Immediately her bleeding stopped
and she felt
in her body
that she was freed
from her suffering.
At once
Jesus realized
that power had gone out
from him.
He turned around
in the crowd
and asked,
"Who touched
my clothes?"
"You see
the people
crowding against you,"
his disciples answered,
"and yet you can ask,
'Who touched
me?' "
But Jesus kept looking around
to see
who had done it.
Then the woman,
knowing
what had happened to her,
came and fell
at his feet and,
trembling with fear,
told
him
the whole truth.
He said
to her,
"Daughter,
your faith has healed
you.
Go
in peace
and be freed
from your suffering."
While Jesus was still speaking,
some men came
from the house of Jairus,
the synagogue ruler.
"Your daughter is dead,"
they said.
"Why bother
the teacher
any more?"
Ignoring
what they said,
Jesus told
the synagogue ruler,
"Don't be afraid;
just believe."
He did not let
anyone follow
him
except Peter, James
and John the brother of James.
When they came
to the home of the synagogue ruler,
Jesus saw
a commotion,
with people
crying and wailing loudly.
He went in and said
to them,
"Why all this commotion and wailing?
The child is not dead
but asleep."
But they laughed
at him.
After he put
them all out,
he took
the child's father and mother and the disciples
who were with him,
and went in
where the child was.
He took
her
by the hand
and said
to her,
"Talitha koum!"
(which means,
"Little girl,
I say
to you,
get up!" ).
Immediately the girl stood up and walked around
(she was twelve years old).
At this
they were completely astonished.
He gave
strict orders
not to let anyone know
about this,
and told
them
to give
her something to eat.
