Marcos 5
1 Dumating sila sa kabilang dako ng dagat, sa rehiyon ng Geraseno.
Jesus and his disciples arrived on the [east] side of Lake [Galilee. They landed near] where the Gerasene [people lived].
2 At nang bumababa si Jesus sa bangka, agad may isang lalaking may maruming espiritu ang pumunta sa kaniya mula sa mga libingan.
There was a man in that region whom evil spirits controlled.
3 Ang lalaki ay nakatira sa mga libingan. Wala nang makapagpigil sa kaniya, kahit pa kadena.
[Because that man was violent and people were afraid of him], they had tied him up many times. [As he grew more violent], no one was able to tie him up any longer, not even with chains,
4 Ilang ulit na siyang ginapos gamit ang mga tanikala at kadena. Sinisira niya ang mga kadena at winawasak niya ang kaniyang mga tanikala. Walang sinuman ang may lakas na supilin siya.
because the chains would be broken by him {he would break the chains} whenever he was bound {they bound him} with them. The iron shackles would also be smashed by him {He would also smash the iron shackles} whenever they were fastened {they fastened them} [on his feet].
5 Bawat gabi at araw sa mga libingan at sa mga bundok, sumisigaw siya at sinusugatan niya ang kaniyang sarili ng mga matatalas na bato.
He lived in one of the caves [where they bury dead people]. During both night and day he would scream among the caves and in the hills. He would also cut himself with [sharp] stones. [That day] he came out of the caves.
6 Nang nakita niya si Jesus sa malayo, tumakbo siya sa kaniya at yumuko sa kaniyang harapan.
As Jesus [and his disciples got] out of the boat, that man saw Jesus from a distance. He immediately ran to Jesus, and then he knelt before him.
7 Sumigaw siya nang may malakas na boses, “Ano ang kinalaman ko sa iyo, Jesus, Anak ng Kataas-taasang Diyos? Nakikiusap ako sa iyo sa Diyos mismo, huwag mo akong pahirapan.”
Jesus said to the evil spirit, “You evil spirit, come out of this man!” [But the demon did not leave quickly]. It shouted very loudly, “Jesus, I [know that you are the] (Son of/man who is also) God, so (we have nothing in common./what do we have in common?) [IDM, RHQ] [So leave me alone] I ask you to promise, knowing God is listening, that you will not torture me [now]!”
8 Sapagkat sinasabi niya sa kaniya, “Lumabas ka sa lalaking ito, ikaw na maruming espiritu.”
9 At tinanong niya ito, “Ano ang pangalan mo?” At sumagot siya, “Ang pangalan ko ay Pulutong, sapagkat marami kami.”
[So, in order to expel the demon more easily], Jesus asked him, “What is your name?” He replied, “My name is Crowd/Mob because there are many of us [evil spirits in this man].”
10 Paulit-ulit siyang nakiusap sa kaniya na huwag silang papuntahin sa labas ng rehiyon.
Then the evil spirits fervently kept begging Jesus that he not send them out of the region.
11 Ngayon may malaking kawan ng baboy ang naroon na kumakain sa burol,
[At the same time], a large herd of pigs was (grazing/rooting for food) nearby on the hillside.
12 at nagmakaawa sila sa kaniya, na sinasabi, “Papuntahin mo kami sa mga baboy, hayaan mo kaming pumasok sa kanila.”
So the evil spirits pleaded with Jesus, “Allow us to go to the pigs in order that we might enter them!”
13 Kaya pinayagan niya ang mga ito, lumabas ang mga masamang espiritu at pumasok sa mga baboy, at nagtakbuhan sila patungo sa matarik na burol papunta sa dagat, halos dalawang libong baboy ang nalunod sa dagat.
He permitted them [to do that]. So the evil spirits left the man and entered the pigs. The herd, [which numbered] about 2,000, rushed down the cliff into the lake, and drowned in the lake.
14 At tumakbo ang mga nagpapakain sa mga baboy at ipinamalita sa lungsod at sa mga karatig-pook kung ano ang nangyari. At maraming tao ang pumunta upang makita kung ano ang nangyari.
The men who had been tending the pigs ran and reported in the town and the countryside [what had happened. Many people] went to see what had happened.
15 Pagkatapos ay pumunta sila kay Jesus at nakita nila ang lalaking sinapian ng demonyo— na may Pulutong—na nakaupo, nakabihis, at nasa kaniyang tamang kaisipan, at sila ay natakot.
They came to [the place where] Jesus [was]. Then they saw the man whom evil spirits had [previously] controlled. He was sitting there with clothes on and mentally sound. [As a result], they became afraid [because they thought that Jesus might destroy more of their property]. (OR, [they realized that Jesus must be very powerful].)
16 Sinabi sa kanila ng mga nakakita ng nangyari sa lalaking sinapian ng demonyo kung ano ang nangyari sa kaniya at gayon din ang tungkol sa mga baboy.
The people who had seen what had happened described what had happened to the man whom the evil spirits [previously] controlled. They also described [what had happened to] the pigs.
17 At nagsimula silang nagmakaawa sa kaniya na umalis sa kanilang rehiyon.
Then the people pleaded with Jesus to leave their region.
18 At nang sumasakay na siya sa bangka, nakiusap sa kaniya ang lalaking sinaniban ng demonyo kung maaari siyang sumama sa kaniya.
As Jesus got in the boat [in order to leave], the man whom the evil spirits [previously] controlled begged Jesus, “[Please let me] go with you!”
19 Ngunit hindi siya pumayag dito, subalit sinabi niya sa kaniya, “Umuwi ka sa iyong bahay at sa mga kasama mo, at sabihin mo sa kanila kung ano ang ginawa ng Panginoon para sa iyo at kung paano ka niya kinahabagan.”
But Jesus did not let him [go with him]. On the contrary, he said to him, “Go home to your family and tell them how much the Lord [God] has done for you, and tell them how [God] was kind to you.”
20 Kaya siya ay umalis at nagsimulang ihayag ang mga dakilang bagay na ginawa ni Jesus para sa kaniya sa Decapolis at ang lahat ay namangha.
So the man left [and traveled around] the Ten Towns [district]. He told people how much Jesus had done for him. All the people [who heard what the man said] were amazed.
21 At nang si Jesus ay muling tumawid sa kabilang dako, maraming mga tao ang pumalibot sa kaniya sa bangka, sapagkat siya ay nasa tabing dagat.
Jesus [and his disciples] went in a boat back around Lake [Galilee] to where they were before. When they arrived at the shore of the lake, a large crowd gathered around Jesus.
22 At isa sa mga pinuno ng sinagoga na nagngangalang Jairo ang dumating, at nang makita niya si Jesus, nagpatirapa siya sa kaniyang paanan.
One of the men who presided over a (synagogue/Jewish meeting place), whose name was Jairus, came there. When he saw Jesus, he prostrated himself at his feet.
23 Nagmakaawa siya nang paulit-ulit na nagsasabi, “Ang aking anak na babae ay malapit nang mamatay. Nakikiusap ako sa iyo, halika ka at ipatong ang iyong mga kamay sa kaniya upang siya ay gumaling at mabuhay.”
Then he pleaded with Jesus earnestly, “My twelve-year old daughter is [sick and] nearly dead! [Please] come [to my house] and place your hands on her in order that she will be healed {to heal her}, so that she will not die!”
24 Kaya sumama siya sa kaniya at sumunod sa kaniya ang napakaraming tao at sila ay nag-uumpukan sa palibot niya.
So Jesus [and the disciples] went with him. A large crowd followed [Jesus] and [many] pushed close to him.
25 Ngayon, mayroong isang babae na walang tigil na dinudugo sa loob ng labing dalawang taon.
There was a woman [in the crowd] who had vaginal bleeding [EUP] [every day] for twelve years.
26 Dumanas siya ng maraming hirap sa ilalim ng mga manggagamot at naubos na niya ang lahat ng mayroon siya. Ngunit walang nakatulong sa kaniya, sa halip ay lalo pang lumala.
She had suffered much while many doctors [treated her]. But although she had spent all [her money] to pay the doctors, she had not been helped {they had not helped her}. Instead, she had become worse [EUP].
27 Narinig niya ang mga balita tungkol kay Jesus. Kaya pumunta siya sa kaniyang likuran habang siya ay naglalakad sa gitna ng maraming tao, at hinawakan niya ang kaniyang balabal.
After she heard that Jesus [healed people], she came [to where he was and pushed] in the crowd [close] behind Jesus.
28 Sapagkat iniisip niya, “Kung mahawakan ko man lang kahit ang kaniyang damit, ako ay gagaling.”
She did that because she was thinking, “If I [touch him or] even if I touch his clothes, I will be healed {his power will heal me}.” So she touched Jesus’ clothes.
29 Nang mahawakan niya siya, tumigil ang pagdurugo, at naramdaman niya sa kaniyang katawan na siya ay gumaling na sa kaniyang paghihirap.
At once her bleeding stopped. At the same time, she sensed that she had been cured of {that [he] had cured} her illness.
30 At agad napansin ni Jesus na may lumabas na kapangyarihan mula sa kaniya. At lumingon siya sa mga tao at nagtanong, “Sino ang humawak sa aking damit?”
Jesus [also] immediately sensed that his power had healed someone. So he turned around in the crowd and asked, “Who touched my clothes?”
31 Sinabi sa kaniya ng mga alagad, “Nakita mo ang napakaraming taong nag-uumpukan sa paligid mo, at sasabihin mong 'Sino ang humawak sa akin?”
[One of] his disciples replied, “You can see that many people are crowding close to you! [Probably many people touched you]! So (why do you ask ‘Who touched me?’[/We are surprised] that you ask ‘Who touched me?’ [RHQ])”
32 Ngunit si Jesus ay tumingin sa paligid upang malaman kung sino ang may gawa nito.
But Jesus kept looking around in order to see the one who had done it.
33 Nang nalaman ng babae ang nangyari sa kaniya, natakot siya at nanginig. Lumapit siya at nagpatirapa sa kaniyang harapan at sinabi ang buong katotohanan.
The woman was very afraid and trembling. [She thought that Jesus might be angry because she had violated the law that women who had such a] sickness [should not touch other people. But] she knew [that Jesus had healed her]. So she prostrated herself before him. Then she told him truthfully [about what she had done].
34 Sinabi niya sa kaniya, “Anak, ang iyong pananampalataya ang nagpagaling sa iyo. Umuwi ka nang may kapayapaan at gumaling ka sa iyong karamdaman.”
He said to her, “(Ma’am/Young lady), because you have believed [that I could heal you], I have healed you. You may go home with peace [in your heart/inner being], [because I promise that] you will not be sick [this way any more].”
35 Habang siya ay nagsasalita, ilang tao mula sa pinuno ng sinagoga ang dumating at nagsabi, “Patay na ang iyong anak. Bakit mo pa aabalahin ang Guro?”
While Jesus was still speaking [to that woman], some people arrived who had come from Jairus’ house. They said [to Jairus], “Your daughter has [now] died. So (it is useless that you bother the teacher any longer [by urging him to go to your house]!/why do you bother the teacher any longer [by urging him to go to your house]?) [RHQ]”
36 Ngunit nang marinig ni Jesus ang kanilang sinabi, sinabi niya sa pinuno ng sinagoga, “Huwag kang matakot, maniwala ka lang.”
But when Jesus heard what these men said, he said to Jairus, “Do not think that the situation is hopeless! Just keep believing [that she will live]!”
37 Hindi niya pinayagan ang kahit sino na sumama sa kaniya maliban kay Pedro, Santiago, at Juan na kapatid ni Santiago.
Then he allowed only [his three closest disciples], Peter, James, and John, to go with him [to Jairus’ house]. He did not allow any other people to go with him. After they arrived near the house, Jesus saw that the people there were in turmoil. They were weeping and wailing [DOU] loudly.
38 Nakarating sila sa bahay ng pinuno nang sinagoga at nakita niya ang kaguluhan, napakaraming iyakan at pagtangis.
39 Nang pumasok siya sa bahay, sinabi niya sa kanila, “Bakit kayo nababalisa at bakit kayo umiiyak? Ang bata ay hindi patay kundi natutulog.”
He entered the house and then he said to them, knowing that [he was going to cause her to live again], “(Do not make such a disturbance!/Why are you making such a disturbance?) [RHQ] Stop crying, for the child is not dead! On the contrary, she is [only] sleeping [HYP, EUP]!”
40 Siya ay pinagtawanan nila, ngunit pinalabas niya silang lahat, isinama niya ang ama at ina ng bata at maging ang mga kasama niya, at pumunta sila kung saan naroroon ang bata.
The people laughed at him, [because they knew that she was dead]. But he sent all the other people outside the house. Then he took the child’s father and mother and the [three disciples] who were with him. He went into [the room] where the child was [lying].
41 Kinuha niya ang kamay ng bata at sinabi sa kaniya, “Talitha koum,” na ang ibig sabihin ay “Batang babae, sinasabi ko sa iyo, bumangon ka.”
He took hold of the child’s hand and said to her [in her own language], “Talitha, Koum!” That means, “Little girl, get up!”
42 Agad na tumayo ang bata at naglakad (sapagkat siya ay labindalawang taon). At kaagad labis silang namangha.
At once the girl got up and walked around. ([It was not surprising that she could walk], because she was twelve years old.) [When this happened, all who were present] were very astonished.
43 Mahigpit niya silang pinagbilinan na walang dapat makaalam ng tungkol dito. At inutusan niya sila na bigyan ang bata ng makakain.
Jesus ordered them strictly, “Do not tell anyone about [what I have done]!” Afterwards he told them that something to eat should be brought to the girl {that they should bring the girl something to eat}.
