MODERN LITERAL VERSION

5:1 And they came to the other side of the sea, into the country of the Gadarenes.

5:2 And when he came out of the ship, immediately a man met him out of the tombs with an unclean spirit,

5:3 who had his dwelling in the tombs and no one was able to bind him, not even with chains.

5:4 Because of that, he had been bound often with shackles and chains and the chains had been torn to shreds by him and the shackles crushed and no one was strong-enough to tame him.

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


5:6 And when he saw Jesus from afar, he ran and worshiped him;

5:7 and crying out with a loud voice, he said, What have I to do with you, Jesus, you, Son of the Highest God? I am imploring you by God, do not torment me.


5:8 For* he said to him, Come out of the man, you unclean spirit.

5:9 And he asked him, What is your name?
And he answered, saying, My name is Legion, because we are many.

5:10 And he pleaded with him much that* he might not send them away outside the country.

5:11 Now a great herd of swine was feeding there before the mountain.

5:12 And all the demons pleaded with him, saying, Send us into the swine, that* we may enter into them.

5:13 And Jesus immediately permitted them. And the unclean spirits came out and entered into the swine and the herd rushed down the cliff into the sea. Now they were approximately two thousand, and they were drowned in the sea.


5:14 And those feeding the swine fled and reported it to the city and to the rural area. And they came out to see what it was that had happened.

5:15 And they come to Jesus and view he who was demon-possessed, sitting and he had his garments on and was sensible, (he who had the legion), and they were afraid.

5:16 And those who saw it described to them how it happened to he who was demon-possessed and concerning the swine.

5:17 And they began to plead with him to go away from their borders.


5:18 And as he stepped into the ship, he who had been demon-possessed pleaded with him that* he might be with him.

5:19 But Jesus did not allow him, but says to him, Go to your house, to your friends and report to them how-much the Lord did for you and how he had shown-mercy on you.

5:20 And he traveled and began to preach in Decapolis how-much Jesus had done for him and all marveled.


5:21 And when Jesus had ferried over again in the ship to the other side, a large crowd was gathered to him, and he was by the sea.
{Mk 5:22-43 & Mt 9:18-26 & Lk 8:41-56 Capernaum.}


5:22 And behold one of the rulers of the synagogue, Jairus by name, comes and seeing him, he falls at his feet;

5:23 and pleaded with him much, saying, My young-daughter is in her last moments. I pray that* you come and may lay your hands on her, *that she may be cured and will live.

5:24 And he went with him.
And a large crowd followed him and they pressed against him.

5:25 And a certain woman, who had a flowing of blood for twelve years,

5:26 and had suffered many things by many physicians and had spent all that she had and was profited nothing, but rather having come to be worse.

5:27 Having heard concerning Jesus, she came in the crowd behind and touched his garment.

5:28 For* she said, Even if I touch but his garments, I will be cured.

5:29 And immediately the spring of her blood was dried up, and she knew in her body that she was healed from the disorder.

5:30 And immediately Jesus, fully knowing in himself that the power had gone forth from him and having turned around in the crowd, said, Who touched my garments?


5:31 And his disciples said to him, You see the crowd pressing against you and you say, ‘Who touched me?'

5:32 And he looked around to see her who had done this thing.

5:33 But the woman fearing and trembling, knowing what had happened to her, came and fell down before him and spoke all the truth to him.


5:34 And he said to her, Daughter, your faith has cured you; go in peace and be healthy from your disorder.


5:35 While he still spoke, they come from the ruler of the synagogue's house, saying, Your daughter is dead. Why are you still bothering the Teacher?


5:36 But Jesus immediately hearing the word spoken, says to the ruler of the synagogue, Do not fear, only believe.

5:37 And he allowed no one to follow him, except Peter and James and John the brother of James.

5:38 And he comes to the house of the ruler of the synagogue, and he views an uproar, many weeping and wailing.

5:39 And when he had entered in, he says to them, Why are you* in an uproar and weeping? The child is not dead, but is sleeping.

5:40 And they laughed at him. But having put them all out, he takes the father of the child and her mother and those who were with him and he goes into where the child was lying.

5:41 And taking-hold of the child by the hand, he says to her, Talitha kumi; which is, after being translated, Girl, I say to you, Arise.

5:42 And immediately the girl rose* up and walked; for* she was twelve years old. And they were astonished with a great astonishment.

5:43 And he ordered them much that* no one should know this and he said that something should be given to her to eat.
