When the demons came out of the man, they went into the pigs, and the herd ran down the hill into the lake and was drowned.
34
When the herdsmen saw what had happened, they ran away and told about this in the town and the countryside.
35
And people went to see what had happened. When they came to Jesus, they found the man sitting at Jesus' feet, clothed and in his right mind, because the demons were gone. But the people were frightened.
36
The people who saw this happen told the others how Jesus had made the man well.
37
All the people of the Gerasene country asked Jesus to leave, because they were all very afraid. So Jesus got into the boat and went back to Galilee.
38
The man whom Jesus had healed begged to go with him, but Jesus sent him away, saying,
39
"Go back home and tell people how much God has done for you." So the man went all over town telling how much Jesus had done for him.
40
When Jesus got back to Galilee, a crowd welcomed him, because everyone was waiting for him.
41
A man named Jairus, a leader of the synagogue, came to Jesus and fell at his feet, begging him to come to his house.
42
Jairus' only daughter, about twelve years old, was dying. While Jesus was on his way to Jairus' house, the people were crowding all around him.
43
A woman was in the crowd who had been bleeding for twelve years, but no one was able to heal her.
