	GENEVA Geneva Bible of 1587	ESV English Standard Version	NIV New International Version
1	And they came ouer to the other side of the sea into the countrey of the Gadarens.	They came to the other side of the sea, to the country of the Gerasenes.	They went across the lake to the region of the Gerasenes.
2	And when he was come out of the shippe, there met him incontinently out of the graues, a man which had an vncleane spirit:	And when Jesus had stepped out of the boat, immediately there met him out of the tombs a man with an unclean spirit.	When Jesus got out of the boat, a man with an impure spirit came from the tombs to meet him.
3	Who had his abiding among the graues, and no man could binde him, no not with chaines:	He lived among the tombs. And no one could bind him anymore, not even with a chain,	This man lived in the tombs, and no one could bind him anymore, not even with a chain.
4	Because that when hee was often bounde with fetters and chaines, he plucked the chaines asunder, and brake the fetters in pieces, neither could any man tame him.	for he had often been bound with shackles and chains, but he wrenched the chains apart, and he broke the shackles in pieces. No one had the strength to subdue him.	For he had often been chained hand and foot, but he tore the chains apart and broke the irons on his feet. No one was strong enough to subdue him.
5	And alwayes both night and day he cryed in the mountaines, and in the graues, and strooke himselfe with stones.	Night and day among the tombs and on the mountains he was always crying out and cutting himself with stones.	Night and day among the tombs and in the hills he would cry out and cut himself with stones.
6	And when he saw Iesus afarre off, he ranne, and worshipped him,	And when he saw Jesus from afar, he ran and fell down before him.	When he saw Jesus from a distance, he ran and fell on his knees in front of him.
7	And cryed with a loude voyce, and saide, What haue I to doe with thee, Iesus the Sonne of the most high God? I will that thou sweare to me by God, that thou torment me not.	And crying out with a loud voice, he said, “What have you to do with me, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I adjure you by God, do not torment me.”	He shouted at the top of his voice, “What do you want with me, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? In God’s name don’t torture me!”
8	(For hee saide vnto him, Come out of the man, thou vncleane spirit.)	For he was saying to him, “Come out of the man, you unclean spirit!”	For Jesus had said to him, “Come out of this man, you impure spirit!”
9	And he asked him, What is thy name? and hee answered, saying, My name is Legion: for we are many.	And Jesus asked him, “What is your name?” He replied, “My name is Legion, for we are many.”	Then Jesus asked him, “What is your name?” “My name is Legion,” he replied, “for we are many.”
10	And hee prayed him instantly, that hee would not send them away out of the countrey.	And he begged him earnestly not to send them out of the country.	And he begged Jesus again and again not to send them out of the area.
11	Now there was there in the mountaines a great heard of swine, feeding.	Now a great herd of pigs was feeding there on the hillside,	A large herd of pigs was feeding on the nearby hillside.
12	And all ye deuils besought him, saying, Send vs into the swine, that we may enter into them.	and they begged him, saying, “Send us to the pigs; let us enter them.”	The demons begged Jesus, “Send us among the pigs; allow us to go into them.”
13	And incontinently Iesus gaue them leaue. Then the vncleane spirites went out, and entred into the swine, and the heard ranne headlong from the high banke into the sea, (and there were about two thousand swine) and they were choked vp in the sea.	So he gave them permission. And the unclean spirits came out and entered the pigs; and the herd, numbering about two thousand, rushed down the steep bank into the sea and drowned in the sea.	He gave them permission, and the impure spirits came out and went into the pigs. The herd, about two thousand in number, rushed down the steep bank into the lake and were drowned.
14	And the swineheards fled, and told it in the citie, and in the countrey, and they came out to see what it was that was done.	The herdsmen fled and told it in the city and in the country. And people came to see what it was that had happened.	Those tending the pigs ran off and reported this in the town and countryside, and the people went out to see what had happened.
15	And they came to Iesus, and sawe him that had bene possessed with the deuil, and had the legion, sit both clothed, and in his right minde: and they were afraide.	And they came to Jesus and saw the demon-possessed man, the one who had had the legion, sitting there, clothed and in his right mind, and they were afraid.	When they came to Jesus, they saw the man who had been possessed by the legion of demons, sitting there, dressed and in his right mind; and they were afraid.
16	And they that saw it, tolde them, what was done to him that was possessed with the deuil, and concerning the swine.	And those who had seen it described to them what had happened to the demon-possessed man and to the pigs.	Those who had seen it told the people what had happened to the demon-possessed man—and told about the pigs as well.
17	Then they began to pray him, that hee would depart from their coastes.	And they began to beg Jesus to depart from their region.	Then the people began to plead with Jesus to leave their region.
18	And when he was come into the shippe, he that had bene possessed with the deuil, prayed him that he might be with him.	As he was getting into the boat, the man who had been possessed with demons begged him that he might be with him.	As Jesus was getting into the boat, the man who had been demon-possessed begged to go with him.
19	Howbeit, Iesus would not suffer him, but said vnto him, Goe thy way home to thy friendes, and shewe them what great thinges the Lorde hath done vnto thee, and howe hee hath had compassion on thee.	And he did not permit him but said to him, “Go home to your friends and tell them how much the Lord has done for you, and how he has had mercy on you.”	Jesus did not let him, but said, “Go home to your own people and tell them how much the Lord has done for you, and how he has had mercy on you.”
20	So he departed, and began to publish in Decapolis, what great things Iesus had done vnto him: and all men did marueile.	And he went away and began to proclaim in the Decapolis how much Jesus had done for him, and everyone marveled.	So the man went away and began to tell in the Decapolis how much Jesus had done for him. And all the people were amazed.
21	And when Iesus was come ouer againe by ship vnto the other side, a great multitude gathered together to him, & he was neere vnto the sea.	And when Jesus had crossed again in the boat to the other side, a great crowd gathered about him, and he was beside the sea.	When Jesus had again crossed over by boat to the other side of the lake, a large crowd gathered around him while he was by the lake.
22	And beholde, there came one of the rulers of the Synagogue, whose name was Iairus: and when he sawe him, he fell downe at his feete,	Then came one of the rulers of the synagogue, Jairus by name, and seeing him, he fell at his feet	Then one of the synagogue leaders, named Jairus, came, and when he saw Jesus, he fell at his feet.
23	And besought him instantly, saying, My litle daughter lyeth at point of death: I pray thee that thou wouldest come and lay thine hands on her, that she may be healed, and liue.	and implored him earnestly, saying, “My little daughter is at the point of death. Come and lay your hands on her, so that she may be made well and live.”	He pleaded earnestly with him, “My little daughter is dying. Please come and put your hands on her so that she will be healed and live.”
24	Then hee went with him, and a great multitude folowed him, and thronged him.	And he went with him. And a great crowd followed him and thronged about him.	So Jesus went with him. A large crowd followed and pressed around him.
25	( And there was a certaine woman, which was diseased with an issue of blood twelue yeeres,	And there was a woman who had had a discharge of blood for twelve years,	And a woman was there who had been subject to bleeding for twelve years.
26	And had suffred many things of many physicions, and had spent all that she had, and it auailed her nothing, but she became much worse.	and who had suffered much under many physicians, and had spent all that she had, and was no better but rather grew worse.	She had suffered a great deal under the care of many doctors and had spent all she had, yet instead of getting better she grew worse.
27	When she had heard of Iesus, shee came in the preasse behinde, and touched his garment.	She had heard the reports about Jesus and came up behind him in the crowd and touched his garment.	When she heard about Jesus, she came up behind him in the crowd and touched his cloak,
28	For she said, If I may but touch his clothes, I shalbe whole.	For she said, “If I touch even his garments, I will be made well.”	because she thought, “If I just touch his clothes, I will be healed.”
29	And straightway the course of her blood was dried vp, and she felt in her body, that she was healed of that plague.	And immediately the flow of blood dried up, and she felt in her body that she was healed of her disease.	Immediately her bleeding stopped and she felt in her body that she was freed from her suffering.
30	And immediatly when Iesus did knowe in himselfe the vertue that went out of him, he turned him round about in the preasse, and said, Who hath touched my clothes?	And Jesus, perceiving in himself that power had gone out from him, immediately turned about in the crowd and said, “Who touched my garments?”	At once Jesus realized that power had gone out from him. He turned around in the crowd and asked, “Who touched my clothes?”
31	And his disciples said vnto him, Thou seest the multitude throng thee, and sayest thou, Who did touche me?	And his disciples said to him, “You see the crowd pressing around you, and yet you say, ‘Who touched me?’”	“You see the people crowding against you,” his disciples answered, “and yet you can ask, ‘Who touched me?’ “
32	And he looked round about, to see her that had done that.	And he looked around to see who had done it.	But Jesus kept looking around to see who had done it.
33	And the woman feared and trembled: for she knewe what was done in her, and shee came and fell downe before him, and tolde him the whole trueth.	But the woman, knowing what had happened to her, came in fear and trembling and fell down before him and told him the whole truth.	Then the woman, knowing what had happened to her, came and fell at his feet and, trembling with fear, told him the whole truth.
34	And hee saide to her, Daughter, thy faith hath made thee whole: go in peace, and be whole of thy plague.)	And he said to her, “Daughter, your faith has made you well; go in peace, and be healed of your disease.”	He said to her, “Daughter, your faith has healed you. Go in peace and be freed from your suffering.”
35	While hee yet spake, there came from the same ruler of the Synagogues house certaine which said, Thy daughter is dead: why diseasest thou the Master any further?	While he was still speaking, there came from the ruler’s house some who said, “Your daughter is dead. Why trouble the Teacher any further?”	While Jesus was still speaking, some people came from the house of Jairus, the synagogue leader. “Your daughter is dead,” they said. “Why bother the teacher anymore?”
36	Assoone as Iesus heard that word spoken, he said vnto the ruler of the Synagogue, Be not afraide: onely beleeue.	But overhearing what they said, Jesus said to the ruler of the synagogue, “Do not fear, only believe.”	Overhearing what they said, Jesus told him, “Don’t be afraid; just believe.”
37	And he suffered no man to folow him saue Peter and Iames, and Iohn the brother of Iames.	And he allowed no one to follow him except Peter and James and John the brother of James.	He did not let anyone follow him except Peter, James and John the brother of James.
38	So hee came vnto the house of the ruler of the Synagogue, and sawe the tumult, and them that wept and wailed greatly.	They came to the house of the ruler of the synagogue, and Jesus saw a commotion, people weeping and wailing loudly.	When they came to the home of the synagogue leader, Jesus saw a commotion, with people crying and wailing loudly.
39	And he went in, and said vnto them, Why make ye this trouble, and weepe? the childe is not dead, but sleepeth.	And when he had entered, he said to them, “Why are you making a commotion and weeping? The child is not dead but sleeping.”	He went in and said to them, “Why all this commotion and wailing? The child is not dead but asleep.”
40	And they laught him to scorne: but hee put them all out, and tooke the father, and the mother of the childe, and them that were with him, and entred in where the childe lay,	And they laughed at him. But he put them all outside and took the child’s father and mother and those who were with him and went in where the child was.	But they laughed at him. After he put them all out, he took the child’s father and mother and the disciples who were with him, and went in where the child was.
41	And tooke the childe by the hand, & saide vnto her, Talitha cumi, which is by interpretation, Mayden, I say vnto thee, arise.	Taking her by the hand he said to her, “Talitha cumi,” which means, “Little girl, I say to you, arise.”	He took her by the hand and said to her, “Talitha koum!” (which means “Little girl, I say to you, get up!”).
42	And straightway the mayden arose, and walked: for shee was of the age of twelue yeeres, and they were astonied out of measure.	And immediately the girl got up and began walking (for she was twelve years of age), and they were immediately overcome with amazement.	Immediately the girl stood up and began to walk around (she was twelve years old). At this they were completely astonished.
43	And he charged them straitly that no man should knowe of it, and commaunded to giue her meate.	And he strictly charged them that no one should know this, and told them to give her something to eat.	He gave strict orders not to let anyone know about this, and told them to give her something to eat.
