Κατα Μαρκον 5
1 και ηλθον εις το περαν της θαλασσης εις την χωραν των γαδαρηνων
On the other side of the sea, they arrived in the region of the Gerasenes.
2 και εξελθοντι αυτω εκ του πλοιου ευθεως απηντησεν αυτω εκ των μνημειων ανθρωπος εν πνευματι ακαθαρτω
As soon as Jesus got out of the boat, He was met by a man with an unclean spirit, who was coming from the tombs.
3 ος την κατοικησιν ειχεν εν τοις μνημειοις και ουτε αλυσεσιν ουδεις ηδυνατο αυτον δησαι
This man had been living in the tombs and could no longer be restrained, 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
Though he was often bound with chains and shackles, he had broken the chains and shattered the shackles. Now there was no one with the strength to subdue him.
5 και διαπαντος νυκτος και ημερας εν τοις ορεσιν και εν τοις μνημασιν ην κραζων και κατακοπτων εαυτον λιθοις
Night and day in the tombs and in the mountains he kept crying out and cutting himself with stones.
6 ιδων δε τον ιησουν απο μακροθεν εδραμεν και προσεκυνησεν αυτω
When the man saw Jesus from a distance, he ran and fell on his knees before 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 he shouted in a loud voice, “What do You want with me, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I beg You before God not to torture me!”
8 ελεγεν γαρ αυτω εξελθε το πνευμα το ακαθαρτον εκ του ανθρωπου
For Jesus had already declared, “Come out of this man, you unclean spirit!”
9 και επηρωτα αυτον τι σοι ονομα και απεκριθη λεγων λεγεων ονομα μοι οτι πολλοι εσμεν
“What is your name?” Jesus asked. “My name is Legion,” he replied, “for we are many.”
10 και παρεκαλει αυτον πολλα ινα μη αυτους αποστειλη εξω της χωρας
And he begged Jesus repeatedly not to send them out of that region.
11 ην δε εκει προς τα ορη αγελη χοιρων μεγαλη βοσκομενη
There on the nearby hillside a large herd of pigs was feeding.
12 και παρεκαλεσαν αυτον παντες οι δαιμονες λεγοντες πεμψον ημας εις τους χοιρους ινα εις αυτους εισελθωμεν
So the demons begged Jesus, “Send us to the pigs, so that we may enter 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
He gave them permission, and the unclean spirits came out and went into the pigs, and the herd of about two thousand rushed down the steep bank into the sea and drowned in the water.
14 οι δε βοσκοντες τους χοιρους εφυγον και ανηγγειλαν εις την πολιν και εις τους αγρους και εξηλθον ιδειν τι εστιν το γεγονος
Those tending the pigs ran off and reported this in the town and countryside, and the people went out to see what had happened.
15 και ερχονται προς τον ιησουν και θεωρουσιν τον δαιμονιζομενον καθημενον και ιματισμενον και σωφρονουντα τον εσχηκοτα τον λεγεωνα και εφοβηθησαν
When they came to Jesus, they saw the man who had been possessed by the legion of demons sitting there, clothed and in his right mind; and they were afraid.
16 και διηγησαντο αυτοις οι ιδοντες πως εγενετο τω δαιμονιζομενω και περι των χοιρων
Those who had seen it described what had happened to the demon-possessed man and also to the pigs.
17 και ηρξαντο παρακαλειν αυτον απελθειν απο των οριων αυτων
And the people began to beg Jesus to leave their region.
18 και εμβαντος αυτου εις το πλοιον παρεκαλει αυτον ο δαιμονισθεις ινα η μετ αυτου
As He was getting into the boat, the man who had been possessed by the demons begged to go 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 εποιησεν και ηλεησεν σε
But Jesus would not allow him. “Go home to your own people,” He said, “and tell them how much the Lord has done for you, and what mercy He has shown you.”
20 και απηλθεν και ηρξατο κηρυσσειν εν τη δεκαπολει οσα εποιησεν αυτω ο ιησους και παντες εθαυμαζον
So the man went away and began to proclaim throughout the Decapolis how much Jesus had done for him. And everyone was amazed.
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 again crossed by boat to the other side, a large crowd gathered around Him beside the sea.
22 και ιδου ερχεται εις των αρχισυναγωγων ονοματι ιαειρος και ιδων αυτον πιπτει προς τους ποδας αυτου
A synagogue leader named Jairus arrived, and seeing Jesus, 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 pleaded with Him urgently, “My little daughter is near death. Please come and place Your hands on her, so that she will be healed and live.”
24 και απηλθεν μετ αυτου και ηκολουθει αυτω οχλος πολυς και συνεθλιβον αυτον
So Jesus went with him, and a large crowd followed and pressed around Him.
25 και γυνη τις ουσα εν ρυσει αιματος ετη δωδεκα
And a woman was there who had suffered from bleeding for twelve years.
26 και πολλα παθουσα υπο πολλων ιατρων και δαπανησασα τα παρ εαυτης παντα και μηδεν ωφεληθεισα αλλα μαλλον εις το χειρον ελθουσα
She had borne much agony under the care of many physicians and had spent all she had, but to no avail. Instead, her condition had only grown worse.
27 ακουσασα περι του ιησου ελθουσα εν τω οχλω οπισθεν ηψατο του ιματιου αυτου
When the woman heard about Jesus, she came up through the crowd behind Him and touched His cloak.
28 ελεγεν γαρ οτι καν των ιματιων αυτου αψωμαι σωθησομαι
For she kept saying, “If only I touch His garments, I will be healed.”
29 και ευθεως εξηρανθη η πηγη του αιματος αυτης και εγνω τω σωματι οτι ιαται απο της μαστιγος
Immediately her bleeding stopped, and she sensed 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
At once Jesus was aware that power had gone out from Him. Turning to the crowd, He asked, “Who touched My garments?”
31 και ελεγον αυτω οι μαθηται αυτου βλεπεις τον οχλον συνθλιβοντα σε και λεγεις τις μου ηψατο
His disciples answered, “You can see the crowd pressing in on You, and yet You ask, ‘Who touched Me?’”
32 και περιεβλεπετο ιδειν την τουτο ποιησασαν
But He kept looking around to see who had done this.
33 η δε γυνη φοβηθεισα και τρεμουσα ειδυια ο γεγονεν επ αυτη ηλθεν και προσεπεσεν αυτω και ειπεν αυτω πασαν την αληθειαν
Then the woman, knowing what had happened to her, came and fell down before Him trembling in fear, and she told Him the whole truth.
34 ο δε ειπεν αυτη θυγατερ η πιστις σου σεσωκεν σε υπαγε εις ειρηνην και ισθι υγιης απο της μαστιγος σου
“Daughter,” said Jesus, “your faith has healed you. Go in peace and be free of your affliction.”
35 ετι αυτου λαλουντος ερχονται απο του αρχισυναγωγου λεγοντες οτι η θυγατηρ σου απεθανεν τι ετι σκυλλεις τον διδασκαλον
While He was still speaking, messengers from the house of Jairus arrived and said, “Your daughter is dead; why bother the Teacher anymore?”
36 ο δε ιησους ευθεως ακουσας τον λογον λαλουμενον λεγει τω αρχισυναγωγω μη φοβου μονον πιστευε
But Jesus overheard their conversation and said to Jairus, “Do not be afraid; just believe.”
37 και ουκ αφηκεν ουδενα αυτω συνακολουθησαι ει μη πετρον και ιακωβον και ιωαννην τον αδελφον ιακωβου
And He did not allow anyone to accompany 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
When they arrived at the house of the synagogue leader, Jesus saw the commotion and the people weeping and wailing loudly.
39 και εισελθων λεγει αυτοις τι θορυβεισθε και κλαιετε το παιδιον ουκ απεθανεν αλλα καθευδει
He went inside and asked, “Why all this commotion and weeping? The child is not dead, but asleep.”
40 και κατεγελων αυτου ο δε εκβαλων απαντας παραλαμβανει τον πατερα του παιδιου και την μητερα και τους μετ αυτου και εισπορευεται οπου ην το παιδιον ανακειμενον
And they laughed at Him. After He had put them all outside, He took the child’s father and mother and His own companions, and went in to see the child.
41 και κρατησας της χειρος του παιδιου λεγει αυτη ταλιθα κουμι ο εστιν μεθερμηνευομενον το κορασιον σοι λεγω εγειραι
Taking her by the hand, Jesus said, “Talitha koum!” which means, “Little girl, I say to you, get up!”
42 και ευθεως ανεστη το κορασιον και περιεπατει ην γαρ ετων δωδεκα και εξεστησαν εκστασει μεγαλη
Immediately the girl got up and began to walk around. She was twelve years old, and at once they were utterly astounded.
43 και διεστειλατο αυτοις πολλα ινα μηδεις γνω τουτο και ειπεν δοθηναι αυτη φαγειν
Then Jesus gave strict orders that no one should know about this, and He told them to give her something to eat.
