Mark 5:12-37

¹²and they besought him, saying, Send us into the swine that we may enter into them.

¹³And Jesus immediately allowed them. And the unclean spirits going out entered into the swine, and the herd rushed down the steep slope, into the sea (about two thousand), and were choked in the sea.

¹⁴And those that were feeding them fled and reported it in the city and in the country. And they went out to see what it was that had taken place.

¹⁵And they come to Jesus, and they see the possessed of demons sitting and clothed and sensible, him that had had the legion: and they were afraid.

¹⁶And they that had seen it related to them how it had happened to the man possessed by demons, and concerning the swine.

¹⁷And they began to beg him to depart from their coasts.

¹⁸And as he went on board ship, the man that had been possessed by demons besought him that he might be with him.

¹⁹And he suffered him not, but says to him, Go to thine home to thine own people, and tell them how great things the Lord has done for thee, and has had mercy on thee.

²⁰And he went away and began to proclaim in the Decapolis how great things Jesus had done for him; and all wondered.

²¹And Jesus having passed over in the ship again to the other side, a great crowd gathered to him; and he was by the sea.

²²And behold there comes one of the rulers of the synagogue, by name Jairus, and seeing him, falls down at his feet;

²³and he besought him much, saying, My little daughter is at extremity; I pray that thou shouldest come and lay thy hands upon her so that she may be healed, and may live.

²⁴And he went with him, and a large crowd followed him and pressed on him.

²⁵And a certain woman who had had a flux of blood twelve years,

²⁶and had suffered much under many physicians, and had spent everything she had and had found no advantage from it, but had rather got worse,

²⁷having heard concerning Jesus, came in the crowd behind and touched his clothes;

²⁸for she said, If I shall touch but his clothes I shall be healed.

²⁹And immediately her fountain of blood was dried up, and she knew in her body that she was cured from the scourge.

³⁰And immediately Jesus, knowing in himself the power that had gone out of him, turning round in the crowd said, Who has touched my clothes?

³¹And his disciples said to him, Thou seest the crowd pressing on thee, and sayest thou, Who touched me?

³²And he looked round about to see her who had done this.

³³But the woman, frightened and trembling, knowing what had taken place in her, came and fell down before him, and told him all the truth.

³⁴And he said to her, Daughter, thy faith has healed thee; go in peace, and be well of thy scourge.

³⁵While he was yet speaking, they come from the ruler of the synagogue's house, saying, Thy daughter has died, why troublest thou the teacher any further?

³⁶But Jesus immediately, having heard the word spoken, says to the ruler of the synagogue, Fear not; only believe.

³⁷And he suffered no one to accompany him save Peter and James, and John the brother of James.
