Mark 6:53-56

Jesus Heals the Sick in Gennesaret

53 ¹When they had crossed over, they came to land at ²Gennesaret and moored to the shore.

54 And when they got out of the boat, the people immediately ³recognized him

55 and ran about the whole region and began to bring ⁴the sick people ⁵on their beds to wherever they heard he was.

56 And wherever he came, in villages, cities, or countryside, ⁶they laid the sick in the marketplaces and implored him that they might touch even ⁷the fringe of his garment. And ⁸as many as touched it were made well.
