The Demons and the Pigs 1And they came beyond the sea, into the country of the Gadarenes,
2And a man from the tombs, with an unclean spirit met Him, having come out of the ship;
3who had his dwelling among the tombs: neither was any one able to bind him with chains;
4because frequently he had been bound with fetters and chains, and the chains were slipped off by him, and the fetters torn to pieces.
5No one was able to tame him: and all the time, night and day, he was among the tombs in the mountains, crying, and cutting himself with stones.
6And seeing Jesus a great way off, he ran to Him, and worshiped Him;
7and crying with a loud voice, he says, What is there to me and to thee, O Jesus, thou Son of the Most High God? I adjure thee in the name of God, that you may not torment me.
8For He said to him,
14And those herding them fled, and reported in the city, and in the country. And they came out to see what it was that came to pass.
15And they come to Jesus, and see the demonized man sitting down, both clothed and in his right mind, the one called Legion; and they were afraid.

22And one of the chief rulers of the synagogue, by name jairus, comes; and seeing Him falls at His feet,
23and intreats Him much saying, My little daughter is at the point of death: that coming He may lay hands on her, in order that she may be saved and live.
24And He departed with him; and a great multitude followed Him, even treading on Him.
25And a certain woman, being in an issue of blood twelve years,
26and having suffered much from many physicians, and expended all things which were with her, and being profited as to nothing, but rather having come to the worse,
27hearing concerning Jesus, having come in the crowd behind, touched His garment.
28For she was saying, If I may touch His garment, I shall be saved.
29And immediately the issue of her blood was dried up: and she knew in her body that she is healed of her plague.
30And immediately Jesus, knowing in Himself that the powerhas gone out from Him, turning in the crowd, said,
35And He still speaking, they come from the house of the chief ruler of the synagogue, saying, Thy daughter is dead: why do you still trouble the Teacher?
