Mark 5

The Darby Translation DBY

1 And they came to the other side of the sea, to the country of the Gadarenes.

2 And immediately on his going out of the ship there met him out of the tombs a man possessed by an unclean spirit,

3 who had his dwelling in the tombs; and no one was able to bind him, not even with chains;

4 because he had been often bound with fetters and chains, and the chains had been torn asunder by him, and the fetters were shattered; and no one was able to subdue him.

5 And continually night and day, in the tombs and in the mountains, he was crying and cutting himself with stones.

6 But seeing Jesus from afar off, he ran and did him homage,

7 and crying with a loud voice he says, What have I to do with thee, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I adjure thee by God, torment me not.

8 For he said to him, Come forth, unclean spirit, out of the man.

9 And he asked him, What is thy name? And he says to him, Legion is my name, because we are many.

10 And he besought him much that he would not send them away out of the country.

11 Now there was there just at the mountain a great herd of swine feeding;

12 and they besought him, saying, Send us into the swine that we may enter into them.

13 And Jesus [immediately] allowed them. And the unclean spirits going out entered into the swine, and the herd rushed down the steep slope, into the sea (about two thousand), and were choked in the sea.

14 And those that were feeding them fled and reported it in the city and in the country. And they went out to see what it was that had taken place.

15 And they come to Jesus, and they see the possessed of demons sitting [and] clothed and sensible, [him] that had had the legion: and they were afraid.

16 And they that had seen [it] related to them how it had happened to the [man] possessed by demons, and concerning the swine.

17 And they began to beg him to depart from their coasts.

18 And as he went on board ship, the man that had been possessed by demons besought him that he might be with him.

19 And he suffered him not, but says to him, Go to thine home to thine own people, and tell them how great things the Lord has done for thee, and has had mercy on thee.

20 And he went away and began to proclaim in the Decapolis how great things Jesus had done for him; and all wondered.

21 And Jesus having passed over in the ship again to the other side, a great crowd gathered to him; and he was by the sea.

22 And [behold] there comes one of the rulers of the synagogue, by name Jairus, and seeing him, falls down at his feet;

23 and he besought him much, saying, My little daughter is at extremity; [I pray] that thou shouldest come and lay thy hands upon her so that she may be healed, and may live.

24 And he went with him, and a large crowd followed him and pressed on him.

25 And a certain woman who had had a flux of blood twelve years,

26 and had suffered much under many physicians, and had spent everything she had and had found no advantage from it, but had rather got worse,

27 having heard concerning Jesus, came in the crowd behind and touched his clothes;

28 for she said, If I shall touch but his clothes I shall be healed.

29 And immediately her fountain of blood was dried up, and she knew in her body that she was cured from the scourge.

30 And immediately Jesus, knowing in himself the power that had gone out of him, turning round in the crowd said, Who has touched my clothes?

31 And his disciples said to him, Thou seest the crowd pressing on thee, and sayest thou, Who touched me?

32 And he looked round about to see her who had done this.

33 But the woman, frightened and trembling, knowing what had taken place in her, came and fell down before him, and told him all the truth.

34 And he said to her, Daughter, thy faith has healed thee; go in peace, and be well of thy scourge.

35 While he was yet speaking, they come from the ruler of the synagogue's [house], saying, Thy daughter has died, why troublest thou the teacher any further?

36 But Jesus [immediately], having heard the word spoken, says to the ruler of the synagogue, Fear not; only believe.

37 And he suffered no one to accompany him save Peter and James, and John the brother of James.

38 And he comes to the house of the ruler of the synagogue, and sees the tumult, and people weeping and wailing greatly.

39 And entering in he says to them, Why do ye make a tumult and weep? the child has not died, but sleeps.

40 And they derided him. But he, having put [them] all out, takes with [him] the father of the child, and the mother, and those that were with him, and enters in where the child was lying.

41 And having laid hold of the hand of the child, he says to her, Talitha koumi, which is, interpreted, Damsel, I say to thee, Arise.

42 And immediately the damsel arose and walked, for she was twelve years old. And they were astonished with great astonishment.

43 And he charged them much that no one should know this; and he desired that [something] should be given her to eat.

GOD'S WORD Translation GW

1 They arrived in the territory of the Gerasenes on the other side of the Sea of Galilee.

2 As Jesus stepped out of the boat, a man came out of the tombs and met him. The man was controlled by an evil spirit

3 and lived among the tombs. No one could restrain him any longer, not even with a chain.

4 He had often been chained hand and foot. However, he snapped the chains off his hands and broke the chains from his feet. No one could control him.

5 Night and day he was among the tombs and on the mountainsides screaming and cutting himself with stones.

6 The man saw Jesus at a distance. So he ran [to Jesus], bowed down in front of him,

7 and shouted, "Why are you bothering me now, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? Swear to God that you won't torture me."

8 He shouted this because Jesus said, "You evil spirit, come out of the man."

9 Jesus asked him, "What is your name?" He told Jesus, "My name is Legion [Six Thousand], because there are many of us."

10 He begged Jesus not to send them out of the territory.

11 A large herd of pigs was feeding on a mountainside nearby.

12 The demons begged him, "Send us into the pigs! Let us enter them!"

13 Jesus let them do this. The evil spirits came out of the man and went into the pigs. The herd of about two thousand pigs rushed down the cliff into the sea and drowned.

14 Those who took care of the pigs ran away. In the city and countryside they reported everything that had happened. So the people came to see what had happened.

15 They came to Jesus and saw the man who had been possessed by the legion of demons. The man was sitting there dressed and in his right mind. The people were frightened.

16 Those who saw this told what had happened to the demon-possessed man and the pigs.

17 Then the people began to beg Jesus to leave their territory.

18 As Jesus stepped into the boat, the man who had been demon-possessed begged him, "Let me stay with you."

19 But Jesus would not allow it. Instead, he told the man, "Go home to your family, and tell them how much the Lord has done for you and how merciful he has been to you."

20 So the man left. He began to tell how much Jesus had done for him in the Ten Cities. Everyone was amazed.

21 Jesus again crossed to the other side of the Sea of Galilee in a boat. A large crowd gathered around him by the seashore.

22 A synagogue leader named Jairus also arrived. When he saw Jesus, he quickly bowed down in front of him.

23 He begged Jesus, "My little daughter is dying. Come, lay your hands on her so that she may get well and live."

24 Jesus went with the man. A huge crowd followed Jesus and pressed him on every side.

25 In the crowd was a woman who had been suffering from chronic bleeding for twelve years.

26 Although she had been under the care of many doctors and had spent all her money, she had not been helped at all. Actually, she had become worse.

27 Since she had heard about Jesus, she came from behind in the crowd and touched his clothes.

28 She said, "If I can just touch his clothes, I'll get well."

29 Her bleeding stopped immediately. She felt cured from her illness.

30 At that moment Jesus felt power had gone out of him. He turned around in the crowd and asked, "Who touched my clothes?"

31 His disciples said to him, "How can you ask, 'Who touched me,' when you see the crowd pressing you on all sides?"

32 But he kept looking around to see the woman who had done this.

33 The woman trembled with fear. She knew what had happened to her. So she quickly bowed in front of him and told him the whole truth.

34 Jesus told her, "Daughter, your faith has made you well. Go in peace! Be cured from your illness."

35 While Jesus was still speaking to her, some people came from the synagogue leader's home. They told the synagogue leader, "Your daughter has died. Why bother the teacher anymore?"

36 When Jesus overheard what they said, he told the synagogue leader, "Don't be afraid! Just believe."

37 Jesus allowed no one to go with him except Peter and the two brothers James and John.

38 When they came to the home of the synagogue leader, Jesus saw a noisy crowd there. People were crying and sobbing loudly.

39 When he came into the house, he asked them, "Why are you making so much noise and crying? The child isn't dead. She's just sleeping."

40 They laughed at him. So he made all of them go outside. Then he took the child's father, mother, and his three disciples and went to the child.

41 Jesus took the child's hand and said to her, "Talitha, koum!" which means, "Little girl, I'm telling you to get up!"

42 The girl got up at once and started to walk. (She was twelve years old.) They were astonished.

43 Jesus ordered them not to let anyone know about this. He also told them to give the little girl something to eat.
