< Κατα Μαρκον 5 >
1 και ηλθον εισ το περαν τησ θαλασσησ εισ την χωραν των γαδαρηνων
They came to the other side of the sea, into the country of the Gadarenes.
2 και εξελθοντι αυτω εκ του πλοιου ευθεωσ απηντησεν αυτω εκ των μνημειων ανθρωποσ εν πνευματι ακαθαρτω
When he had come out of the boat, immediately a man with an unclean spirit met him out of the tombs.
3 οσ την κατοικησιν ειχεν εν τοισ μνημασιν και ουτε αλυσεσιν ουδεισ εδυνατο αυτον δησαι
He lived in the tombs. Nobody could bind him any more, not even with chains,
4 δια το αυτον πολλακισ πεδαισ και αλυσεσιν δεδεσθαι και διεσπασθαι υπ αυτου τασ αλυσεισ και τασ πεδασ συντετριφθαι και ουδεισ αυτον ισχυεν δαμασαι
because he had been often bound with fetters and chains, and the chains had been torn apart by him, and the fetters broken in pieces. Nobody had the strength to tame him.
5 και δια παντοσ νυκτοσ και ημερασ εν τοισ ορεσιν και εν τοισ μνημασιν ην κραζων και κατακοπτων εαυτον λιθοισ
Always, night and day, in the tombs and in the mountains, he was crying out, and cutting himself with stones.
6 ιδων δε τον ιησουν απο μακροθεν εδραμεν και προσεκυνησεν αυτω
When he saw Jesus from afar, he ran and bowed down to him,
7 και κραξασ φωνη μεγαλη ειπεν τι εμοι και σοι ιησου υιε του θεου του υψιστου ορκιζω σε τον θεον μη με βασανισησ
and crying out with a loud voice, he said, “What have I to do with you, Jesus, you Son of the Most High God? I adjure you by God, don’t torment me.”
8 ελεγεν γαρ αυτω εξελθε το πνευμα το ακαθαρτον εκ του ανθρωπου
For he said to him, “Come out of the man, you unclean spirit!”
9 και επηρωτα αυτον τι σοι ονομα και απεκριθη λεγων λεγεων ονομα μοι οτι πολλοι εσμεν
He asked him, “What is your name?” He said to him, “My name is Legion, for we are many.”
10 και παρεκαλει αυτον πολλα ινα μη αυτουσ αποστειλη εξω τησ χωρασ
He begged him much that he would not send them away out of the country.
11 ην δε εκει προσ τω ορει αγελη χοιρων μεγαλη βοσκομενη
Now on the mountainside there was a great herd of pigs feeding.
12 και παρεκαλεσαν αυτον παντεσ οι δαιμονεσ λεγοντεσ πεμψον ημασ εισ τουσ χοιρουσ ινα εισ αυτουσ εισελθωμεν
All the demons begged him, saying, “Send us into the pigs, that we may enter into them.”
13 και επετρεψεν αυτοισ ευθεωσ ο ιησουσ και εξελθοντα τα πνευματα τα ακαθαρτα εισηλθον εισ τουσ χοιρουσ και ωρμησεν η αγελη κατα του κρημνου εισ την θαλασσαν ησαν δε ωσ δισχιλιοι και επνιγοντο εν τη θαλασση
At once Jesus gave them permission. The unclean spirits came out and entered into the pigs. The herd of about two thousand rushed down the steep bank into the sea, and they were drowned in the sea.
14 οι δε βοσκοντεσ τουσ χοιρουσ εφυγον και ανηγγειλαν εισ την πολιν και εισ τουσ αγρουσ και εξηλθον ιδειν τι εστιν το γεγονοσ
Those who fed the pigs fled, and told it in the city and in the country. The people came to see what it was that had happened.
15 και ερχονται προσ τον ιησουν και θεωρουσιν τον δαιμονιζομενον καθημενον και ιματισμενον και σωφρονουντα τον εσχηκοτα τον λεγεωνα και εφοβηθησαν
They came to Jesus, and saw him who had been possessed by demons sitting, clothed, and in his right mind, even him who had the legion; and they were afraid.
16 διηγησαντο δε αυτοισ οι ιδοντεσ πωσ εγενετο τω δαιμονιζομενω και περι των χοιρων
Those who saw it declared to them what happened to him who was possessed by demons, and about the pigs.
17 και ηρξαντο παρακαλειν αυτον απελθειν απο των οριων αυτων
They began to beg him to depart from their region.
18 και εμβαντοσ αυτου εισ το πλοιον παρεκαλει αυτον ο δαιμονισθεισ ινα η μετ αυτου
As he was entering into the boat, he who had been possessed by demons begged him that he might be with him.
19 ο δε ιησουσ ουκ αφηκεν αυτον αλλα λεγει αυτω υπαγε εισ τον οικον σου προσ τουσ σουσ και αναγγειλον αυτοισ οσα σοι ο κυριοσ πεποιηκεν και ηλεησεν σε
He didn’t allow him, but said to him, “Go to your house, to your friends, and tell them what great things the Lord has done for you and how he had mercy on you.”
20 και απηλθεν και ηρξατο κηρυσσειν εν τη δεκαπολει οσα εποιησεν αυτω ο ιησουσ και παντεσ εθαυμαζον
He went his way, and began to proclaim in Decapolis how Jesus had done great things for him, and everyone marveled.
21 και διαπερασαντοσ του ιησου εν τω πλοιω παλιν εισ το περαν συνηχθη οχλοσ πολυσ επ αυτον και ην παρα την θαλασσαν
When Jesus had crossed back over in the boat to the other side, a great multitude was gathered to him; and he was by the sea.
22 και ιδου ερχεται εισ των αρχισυναγωγων ονοματι ιαειροσ και ιδων αυτον πιπτει προσ τουσ ποδασ αυτου
Behold, one of the rulers of the synagogue, Jairus by name, came; and seeing him, he fell at his feet
23 και παρεκαλει αυτον πολλα λεγων οτι το θυγατριον μου εσχατωσ εχει ινα ελθων επιθησ αυτη τασ χειρασ οπωσ σωθη και ζησεται
and begged him much, saying, “My little daughter is at the point of death. Please come and lay your hands on her, that she may be made healthy, and live.”
24 και απηλθεν μετ αυτου και ηκολουθει αυτω οχλοσ πολυσ και συνεθλιβον αυτον
He went with him, and a great multitude followed him, and they pressed upon him on all sides.
25 και γυνη τισ ουσα εν ρυσει αιματοσ ετη δωδεκα
A certain woman who had a discharge of blood for twelve years,
26 και πολλα παθουσα υπο πολλων ιατρων και δαπανησασα τα παρ αυτησ παντα και μηδεν ωφεληθεισα αλλα μαλλον εισ το χειρον ελθουσα
and had suffered many things by many physicians, and had spent all that she had, and was no better, but rather grew worse,
27 ακουσασα περι του ιησου ελθουσα εν τω οχλω οπισθεν ηψατο του ιματιου αυτου
having heard the things concerning Jesus, came up behind him in the crowd and touched his clothes.
28 ελεγεν γαρ οτι καν των ιματιων αυτου αψωμαι σωθησομαι
For she said, “If I just touch his clothes, I will be made well.”
29 και ευθεωσ εξηρανθη η πηγη του αιματοσ αυτησ και εγνω τω σωματι οτι ιαται απο τησ μαστιγοσ
Immediately the flow of her blood was dried up, and she felt in her body that she was healed of her affliction.
30 και ευθεωσ ο ιησουσ επιγνουσ εν εαυτω την εξ αυτου δυναμιν εξελθουσαν επιστραφεισ εν τω οχλω ελεγεν τισ μου ηψατο των ιματιων
Immediately Jesus, perceiving in himself that the power had gone out from him, turned around in the crowd and asked, “Who touched my clothes?”
31 και ελεγον αυτω οι μαθηται αυτου βλεπεισ τον οχλον συνθλιβοντα σε και λεγεισ τισ μου ηψατο
His disciples said to him, “You see the multitude pressing against you, and you say, ‘Who touched me?’”
32 και περιεβλεπετο ιδειν την τουτο ποιησασαν
He looked around to see her who had done this thing.
33 η δε γυνη φοβηθεισα και τρεμουσα ειδυια ο γεγονεν επ αυτη ηλθεν και προσεπεσεν αυτω και ειπεν αυτω πασαν την αληθειαν
But the woman, fearing and trembling, knowing what had been done to her, came and fell down before him, and told him all the truth.
34 ο δε ειπεν αυτη θυγατερ η πιστισ σου σεσωκεν σε υπαγε εισ ειρηνην και ισθι υγιησ απο τησ μαστιγοσ σου
He said to her, “Daughter, your faith has made you well. Go in peace, and be cured of your disease.”
35 ετι αυτου λαλουντοσ ερχονται απο του αρχισυναγωγου λεγοντεσ οτι η θυγατηρ σου απεθανεν τι ετι σκυλλεισ τον διδασκαλον
While he was still speaking, people came from the synagogue ruler’s house, saying, “Your daughter is dead. Why bother the Teacher any more?”
36 ο δε ιησουσ ευθεωσ ακουσασ τον λογον λαλουμενον λεγει τω αρχισυναγωγω μη φοβου μονον πιστευε
But Jesus, when he heard the message spoken, immediately said to the ruler of the synagogue, “Don’t be afraid, only believe.”
37 και ουκ αφηκεν ουδενα αυτω συνακολουθησαι ει μη πετρον και ιακωβον και ιωαννην τον αδελφον ιακωβου
He allowed no one to follow him except Peter, James, and John the brother of James.
38 και ερχεται εισ τον οικον του αρχισυναγωγου και θεωρει θορυβον κλαιοντασ και αλαλαζοντασ πολλα
He came to the synagogue ruler’s house, and he saw an uproar, weeping, and great wailing.
39 και εισελθων λεγει αυτοισ τι θορυβεισθε και κλαιετε το παιδιον ουκ απεθανεν αλλα καθευδει
When he had entered in, he said to them, “Why do you make an uproar and weep? The child is not dead, but is asleep.”
40 και κατεγελων αυτου ο δε εκβαλων παντασ παραλαμβανει τον πατερα του παιδιου και την μητερα και τουσ μετ αυτου και εισπορευεται οπου ην το παιδιον ανακειμενον
They ridiculed him. But he, having put them all out, took the father of the child, her mother, and those who were with him, and went in where the child was lying.
41 και κρατησασ τησ χειροσ του παιδιου λεγει αυτη ταλιθα κουμι ο εστιν μεθερμηνευομενον το κορασιον σοι λεγω εγειραι
Taking the child by the hand, he said to her, “Talitha cumi!” which means, being interpreted, “Girl, I tell you, get up!”
42 και ευθεωσ ανεστη το κορασιον και περιεπατει ην γαρ ετων δωδεκα και εξεστησαν εκστασει μεγαλη
Immediately the girl rose up and walked, for she was twelve years old. They were amazed with great amazement.
43 και διεστειλατο αυτοισ πολλα ινα μηδεισ γνω τουτο και ειπεν δοθηναι αυτη φαγειν
He strictly ordered them that no one should know this, and commanded that something should be given to her to eat.
