Mark 5:9-30

⁹And He was asking him, “What is your name?” And he answered, saying, “My name is Legion; for we are many.”

¹⁰And he was imploring Him many times that He would not send them out of the region.

¹¹Now there was a large herd of swine feeding there near the mountain.

¹²So all the demons implored Him, saying, “Send us into the swine, that we may enter them.”

¹³And immediately Jesus gave them permission. And when the unclean spirits came out, they entered into the swine, and the herd rushed down the steep bank into the sea, (there were about two thousand) and drowned in the sea.

¹⁴But those feeding the swine fled, and they reported it in the city and in the country. And they came out to see what it was that had happened.

¹⁵Then they came to Jesus, and observed him who had been demon-possessed and had the legion, sitting and having been clothed and being of sound mind, and they were afraid.

¹⁶And those who saw it related to them how it happened to him who had been demon-possessed, and about the swine.

¹⁷Then they began to implore Him to go away from their region.

¹⁸And when He got into the boat, he who had been demon-possessed implored Him that he might be with Him.

¹⁹But Jesus did not permit him, but said to him, “Go home to your own family, and report to them all the things that the Lord has done for you, and how He had compassion on you.”

²⁰And he departed and began to proclaim in Decapolis all the things Jesus did for him; and all were marveling.

²¹Now when Jesus had crossed over again in the boat to the other side, a large crowd was gathered to Him; and He was beside the sea.

²²And behold, there came one of the rulers of the synagogue, named Jairus. And seeing Him, he fell at His feet,

²³and was imploring Him many times, saying, “My little daughter is near death, please come and lay Your hands on her, so that she may be healed, and live.”

²⁴And He went away with him. And a large crowd was following Him, and they were pressing against Him.

²⁵Now a certain woman, suffering from a flow of blood for twelve years,

²⁶and who had suffered many things under many physicians, and who had spent everything at her disposal, and was no better, but rather having become worse,

²⁷when she heard about Jesus, she came from behind Him in the crowd and touched His clothing.

²⁸For she was saying, “If only I may touch His clothes, I will be healed.”

²⁹And immediately the flow of her blood was dried up, and she knew in her body that she had been healed from her affliction.

³⁰And Jesus, immediately knowing in Himself that power had gone out of Him, He turned in the crowd and said, “Who touched My clothes?”
