2 And when he was come out of the boat, straightway there met him out of the tombs a man with an unclean spirit,
And as he was going out of the vessel, immediately there met him a man with an unclean spirit,
3 who had his dwelling in the tombs: and no man could any more bind him, no, not with a chain;
coming out of the tombs; who had his abode among the tombs; and no man could secure him, not even with chains;
4 because that he had been often bound with fetters and chains, and the chains had been rent asunder by him, and the fetters broken in pieces: and no man had strength to tame him.
for he had been often bound with fetters and chains, and the chains were burst asunder by him, and the fetters broken in pieces, and no man was able to master him:
5 And always, night and day, in the tombs and in the mountains, he was crying out, and cutting himself with stones.

and crying with a loud voice, said, What have I to do with thee, Jesus thou Son of God most high? I adjure thee by God, that thou dost not send me to torment.
8 For he said unto him, Come forth, thou unclean spirit, out of the man.
(For he had said unto him, Come out, unclean spirit, from the man.)
9 And he asked him, What is thy name? And he saith unto him, My name is Legion; for we are many.
And he interrogated him, What is thy name? and he replied, saying, Legion is my name; for we are many.
10 And he besought him much that he would not send them away out of the country.

11 Now there was there on the mountain side a great herd of swine feeding.

12 And they besought him, saying, Send us into the swine, that we may enter into them.
and all the devils besought him, saying, Send us into the swine, that we may enter into them.
13 And he gave them leave. And the unclean spirits came out, and entered into the swine: and the herd rushed down the steep into the sea, [in number] about two thousand; and they were choked in the sea.
And immediately Jesus permitted them. And the unclean spirits going forth, entered into the swine; and the herd rushed violently down a precipice into the sea (they were about two thousand), and were suffocated in the sea.
14 And they that fed them fled, and told it in the city, and in the country. And they came to see what it was that had come to pass.
Then the swineherds fled, and carried the tidings into the city and into the country. And they went out to see what was done.

And when he embarked on board the vessel, the demoniac besought him, that he might go with him.
19 And he suffered him not, but saith unto him, Go to thy house unto thy friends, and tell them how great things the Lord hath done for thee, and [how] he had mercy on thee.
But Jesus did not permit him, but said to him, Go to thine house, and to thy friends, and tell them how great things the Lord hath done for thee, and hath had compassion on thee.
20 And he went his way, and began to publish in Decapolis how great things Jesus had done for him: and all men did marvel.

23 and beseecheth him much, saying, My little daughter is at the point of death: [I pray thee], that thou come and lay thy hands on her, that she may be made whole, and live.
and entreated him importunately, saying, My little daughter is at the last gasp; wilt thou come, and lay thy hands upon her, that she may recover, and she shall live.
24 And he went with him; and a great multitude followed him, and they thronged him.

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

26 and had suffered many things of many physicians, and had spent all that she had, and was nothing bettered, but rather grew worse,
and had suffered much from many physicians; and had expended all she had, and was nothing better, but rather growing worse and worse;
27 having heard the things concerning Jesus, came in the crowd behind, and touched his garment.
when she heard of Jesus, came in the crowd behind him, and touched his garment:
28 For she said, If I touch but his garments, I shall be made whole.
for she said, If I but touch his clothes, I shall recover.
29 And straightway the fountain of her blood was dried up; and she felt in her body that she was healed of her plague.
And instantly the fountain of her blood was dried up, and she felt in her body that she was cured of her afflictive disease.

35 While he yet spake, they come from the ruler of the synagogue’s [house], saying, Thy daughter is dead: why troublest thou the Master any further?
And while he was yet speaking, they came from the ruler of the synagogue’s house, saying, Thy daughter is dead; why dost thou trouble the master any further?
36 But Jesus, not heeding the word spoken, saith unto the ruler of the synagogue, Fear not, only believe.
But Jesus, instantly hearing the account given, said to the ruler of the synagogue, Fear not, only believe.
37 And he suffered no man to follow with him, save Peter, and James, and John the brother of James.

38 And they come to the house of the ruler of the synagogue; and he beholdeth a tumult, and [many] weeping and wailing greatly.
And he cometh to the house of the ruler of the synagogue, and seeth the confusion, as they were greatly lamenting and making loud moanings.
39 And when he was entered in, he saith unto them, Why make ye a tumult, and weep? the child is not dead, but sleepeth.
And entering in he saith, Why make ye this uproar, and weep? the damsel is not dead, but sleepeth.
40 And they laughed him to scorn. But he, having put them all forth, taketh the father of the child and her mother and them that were with him, and goeth in where the child was.
And they derided him; but he thrusting them all out, took the father and the mother of the maiden, and those who were with him, and went in where the damsel was laid out.
41 And taking the child by the hand, he saith unto her, Talitha cumi; which is, being interpreted, Damsel, I say unto thee, Arise.
And taking the hand of the damsel, he saith unto her, Talitha cumi! which is, being interpreted, Damsel, I say unto thee, arise!
