Book 41 : MARK - Chapter 005
005:001
And when he was come out of the ship, immediately there met
him out of the tombs a man with an unclean spirit
005:002
Who had his dwelling among the tombs; and no man could bind
him, no, not with chains
005:003
Because that he had been often bound with fetters and chains,
and the chains had been plucked asunder by him, and the
fetters broken in pieces: neither could any man tame him
005:004
And always, night and day, he was in the mountains, and in the
tombs, crying, and cutting himself with stones
005:005
But when he saw Jesus afar off, he ran and worshipped him
005:006
And cried with a loud voice, and said, What have I to do with
thee, Jesus, thou Son of the most high God? I adjure thee by
God, that thou torment me not
005:007
For he said unto him, Come out of the man, thou unclean
spirit
005:008
And he asked him, What is thy name? And he answered, saying,
My name is Legion: for we are many
005:009
And he besought him much that he would not send them away out
of the country
005:010
Now there was there nigh unto the mountains a great herd of
swine feeding
005:011
And all the devils besought him, saying, Send us into the
swine, that we may enter into them
005:012
And forthwith Jesus gave them leave. And the unclean spirits
went out, and entered into the swine: and the herd ran
violently down a steep place into the sea, (they were about
two thousand;) and were choked in the sea
005:013
And they that fed the swine fled, and told it in the city, and
in the country. And they went out to see what it was that was
done
005:014
And they come to Jesus, and see him that was possessed with
the devil, and had the legion, sitting, and clothed, and in
his right mind: and they were afraid
005:015
And they that saw it told them how it befell to him that was
possessed with the devil, and also concerning the swine
005:016
And they began to pray him to depart out of their coasts
005:017
And when he was come into the ship, he that had been possessed
with the devil prayed him that he might be with him
005:018
Howbeit Jesus suffered him not, but saith unto him, Go home to
thy friends, and tell them how great things the Lord hath done
for thee, and hath had compassion on thee
005:019
And he departed, and began to publish in Decapolis how great
things Jesus had done for him: and all men did marvel
005:020
And when Jesus was passed over again by ship unto the other
side, much people gathered unto him: and he was nigh unto the
sea
005:021
And, behold, there cometh one of the rulers of the synagogue,
Jairus by name; and when he saw him, he fell at his feet
005:022
And besought him greatly, saying, My little daughter lieth at
the point of death: I pray thee, come and lay thy hands on
her, that she may be healed; and she shall live
005:023
And Jesus went with him; and much people followed him, and
thronged him
005:024
And a certain woman, which had an issue of blood twelve years
005:025
And had suffered many things of many physicians, and had spent
all that she had, and was nothing bettered, but rather grew
worse
005:026
When she had heard of Jesus, came in the press behind, and
touched his garment
005:027
For she said, If I may touch but his clothes, I shall be
whole
005:028
And straightway the fountain of her blood was dried up; and
she felt in her body that she was healed of that plague
005:029
And Jesus, immediately knowing in himself that virtue had gone
out of him, turned him about in the press, and said, Who
touched my clothes
005:030
And his disciples said unto him, Thou seest the multitude
thronging thee, and sayest thou, Who touched me
005:031
And he looked round about to see her that had done this thing
005:032
But the woman fearing and trembling, knowing what was done in
her, came and fell down before him, and told him all the
truth
005:033
And he said unto her, Daughter, thy faith hath made thee
whole; go in peace, and be whole of thy plague
005:034
While he yet spake, there came from the ruler of the
synagogue's house certain which said, Thy daughter is dead:
why troublest thou the Master any further
005:035
As soon as Jesus heard the word that was spoken, he saith unto
the ruler of the synagogue, Be not afraid, only believe
005:036
And he suffered no man to follow him, save Peter, and James,
and John the brother of James
005:037
And he cometh to the house of the ruler of the synagogue, and
seeth the tumult, and them that wept and wailed greatly
005:038
And when he was come in, he saith unto them, Why make ye this
ado, and weep? the damsel is not dead, but sleepeth
005:039
And they laughed him to scorn. But when he had put them all
out, he taketh the father and the mother of the damsel, and
them that were with him, and entereth in where the damsel was
lying
005:040
And he took the damsel by the hand, and said unto her, Talitha
cumi; which is, being interpreted, Damsel, I say unto thee,
arise
005:041
And straightway the damsel arose, and walked; for she was of
the age of twelve years. And they were astonished with a great
astonishment
005:042
And he charged them straitly that no man should know it; and
commanded that something should be given her to eat
