Mark 5

The Complete Jewish Bible CJB

1 Yeshua and his talmidim arrived at the other side of the lake, in the Gerasenes' territory.

2 As soon as he disembarked, a man with an unclean spirit came out of the burial caves to meet him.

3 He lived in the burial caves; and no one could keep him tied up, not even with a chain.

4 He had often been chained hand and foot, but he would snap the chains and break the irons off his feet, and no one was strong enough to control him.

5 Night and day he wandered among the graves and through the hills, howling and gashing himself with stones.

6 Seeing Yeshua from a distance, he ran and fell on his knees in front of him

7 and screamed at the top of his voice, "What do you want with me, Yeshua, Son of God Ha`Elyon? I implore you in God's name! Don't torture me!"

8 For Yeshua had already begun saying to him, "Unclean spirit, come out of this man!"

9 Yeshua asked him, "What's your name?" "My name is Legion," he answered, "there are so many of us";

10 and he kept begging Yeshua not to send them out of that region.

11 Now there was a large herd of pigs feeding near the hill,

12 and the unclean spirits begged him, "Send us to the pigs, so we can go into them."

13 Yeshua gave them permission. They came out and entered the pigs; and the herd, numbering around two thousand, rushed down the hillside into the lake and were drowned.

14 The swineherds fled and told it in the town and in the surrounding country, and the people went to see what had happened.

15 They came to Yeshua and saw the man who had had the legion of demons, sitting there, dressed and in his right mind; and they were frightened.

16 Those who had seen it told what had happened to the man con trolled by demons and to the pigs;

17 and the people began begging Yeshua to leave their district.

18 As he was getting into the boat, the man who had been demonized begged him to be allowed to go with him.

19 But Yeshua would not permit it. Instead, he said to him, "Go home to your people, and tell them how much ADONAI in his mercy has done for you."

20 He went off and began proclaiming in the Ten Towns how much Yeshua had done for him, and everyone was amazed.

21 Yeshua crossed in the boat to the other side of the lake, and a great crowd gathered around him.

22 There came to him a synagogue official, Ya'ir by name, who fell at his feet

23 and pleaded desperately with him, "My little daughter is at the point of death. Please! Come and lay your hands on her, so that she will get well and live!"

24 He went with him; and a large crowd followed, pressing all around him.

25 Among them was a woman who had had a hemorrhage for twelve years

26 and had suffered a great deal under many physicians. She had spent her life savings; yet instead of improving, she had grown worse.

27 She had heard about Yeshua, so she came up behind him in the crowd and touched his robe;

28 for she said, "If I touch even his clothes, I will be healed."

29 Instantly the hemorrhaging stopped, and she felt in her body that she had been healed from the disease.

30 At the same time, Yeshua, aware that power had gone out from him, turned around in the crowd and asked, "Who touched my clothes?"

31 His talmidim responded, "You see the people pressing in on you; and still you ask, `Who touched me?'"

32 But he kept looking around to see who had done it.

33 The woman, frightened and trembling, because she knew what had happened to her, came and fell down in front of him and told him the whole truth.

34 "Daughter," he said to her, "your trust has healed you. Go in peace, and be healed of your disease."

35 While he was still speaking, people from the synagogue official's house came, saying, "Your daughter has died. Why bother the rabbi any longer?"

36 Ignoring what they had said, Yeshua told the synagogue official, "Don't be afraid, just keep trusting."

37 He let no one follow him except Kefa, Ya`akov and Yochanan, Ya`akov's brother.

38 When they came to the synagogue official's house, he found a great commotion, with people weeping and wailing loudly.

39 On entering, he said to them, "Why all this commotion and weeping? The child isn't dead, she's just asleep!"

40 And they jeered at him. But he put them all outside, took the child's father and mother and those with him, and went in where the child was.

41 Taking her by the hand, he said to her, "Talita, kumi!" (which means, "Little girl, I say to you, get up!").

42 At once the girl got up and began walking around; she was twelve years old. Everybody was utterly amazed.

43 He gave them strict orders to say nothing about this to anyone, and told them to give her something to eat.

New International Version NIV

1 They went across the lake to the region of the Gerasenes.

2 When Jesus got out of the boat, a man with an impure spirit came from the tombs to meet him.

3 This man lived in the tombs, and no one could bind him anymore, not even with a chain.

4 For he had often been chained hand and foot, but he tore the chains apart and broke the irons on his feet. No one was strong enough to subdue him.

5 Night and day among the tombs and in the hills he would cry out and cut himself with stones.

6 When he saw Jesus from a distance, he ran and fell on his knees in front of him.

7 He shouted at the top of his voice, “What do you want with me, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? In God’s name don’t torture me!”

8 For Jesus had said to him, “Come out of this man, you impure spirit!”

9 Then Jesus asked him, “What is your name?”“My name is Legion,” he replied, “for we are many.”

10 And he begged Jesus again and again not to send them out of the area.

11 A large herd of pigs was feeding on the nearby hillside.

12 The demons begged Jesus, “Send us among the pigs; allow us to go into them.”

13 He gave them permission, and the impure spirits came out and went into the pigs. The herd, about two thousand in number, rushed down the steep bank into the lake and were drowned.

14 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 When they came to Jesus, they saw the man who had been possessed by the legion of demons, sitting there, dressed and in his right mind; and they were afraid.

16 Those who had seen it told the people what had happened to the demon-possessed man—and told about the pigs as well.

17 Then the people began to plead with Jesus to leave their region.

18 As Jesus was getting into the boat, the man who had been demon-possessed begged to go with him.

19 Jesus did not let him, but said, “Go home to your own people and tell them how much the Lord has done for you, and how he has had mercy on you.”

20 So the man went away and began to tell in the Decapolis how much Jesus had done for him. And all the people were amazed.

21 When Jesus had again crossed over by boat to the other side of the lake, a large crowd gathered around him while he was by the lake.

22 Then one of the synagogue leaders, named Jairus, came, and when he saw Jesus, he fell at his feet.

23 He pleaded earnestly with him, “My little daughter is dying. Please come and put your hands on her so that she will be healed and live.”

24 So Jesus went with him. A large crowd followed and pressed around him.

25 And a woman was there who had been subject to bleeding for twelve years.

26 She had suffered a great deal under the care of many doctors and had spent all she had, yet instead of getting better she grew worse.

27 When she heard about Jesus, she came up behind him in the crowd and touched his cloak,

28 because she thought, “If I just touch his clothes, I will be healed.”

29 Immediately her bleeding stopped and she felt in her body that she was freed from her suffering.

30 At once Jesus realized that power had gone out from him. He turned around in the crowd and asked, “Who touched my clothes?”

31 “You see the people crowding against you,” his disciples answered, “and yet you can ask, ‘Who touched me?’ ”

32 But Jesus kept looking around to see who had done it.

33 Then the woman, knowing what had happened to her, came and fell at his feet and, trembling with fear, told him the whole truth.

34 He said to her, “Daughter, your faith has healed you. Go in peace and be freed from your suffering.”

35 While Jesus was still speaking, some people came from the house of Jairus, the synagogue leader. “Your daughter is dead,” they said. “Why bother the teacher anymore?”

36 Overhearing what they said, Jesus told him, “Don’t be afraid; just believe.”

37 He did not let anyone follow him except Peter, James and John the brother of James.

38 When they came to the home of the synagogue leader, Jesus saw a commotion, with people crying and wailing loudly.

39 He went in and said to them, “Why all this commotion and wailing? The child is not dead but asleep.”

40 But they laughed at him. After he put them all out, he took the child’s father and mother and the disciples who were with him, and went in where the child was.

41 He took her by the hand and said to her, “Talitha koum!” (which means “Little girl, I say to you, get up!”).

42 Immediately the girl stood up and began to walk around (she was twelve years old). At this they were completely astonished.

43 He gave strict orders not to let anyone know about this, and told them to give her something to eat.
