Luke 8:32-56 ▼

32 And there was a herd of many swine feeding in the mountain: and they continued to intreat Him that He should permit them to go into them. And He permitted them.

33 And the demons having come out from the man, came into the swine: and the herd rushed down a precipice into the sea, and were strangled.

34 And the herders seeing that which took place, fled, and proclaimed it in the city and in the country.

35 And they came out to see that which had happened; and came to Jesus, and found the man, out of whom the demons had gone, clothed and in his right mind, at the feet of Jesus: and they were afraid.

36 And those seeing reported to them how the demonized man was saved.

37 And all the multitudes of the surrounding country of the Gergesenes, asked Him to depart from them; because they were seized with great fear. And He having come Into the ship, returned.

38 And the man out of whom the demons had gone prayed to be with Him. And Jesus sent him away, saying,

39 Return to thy own house, and relate, how many things God has done unto thee. And he departed throughout the whole city, preaching how many things Jesus did unto him.

40 And it came to pass when Jesus returned, the multitude received Him; for they were all looking for Him.

41 Behold, a man to whom was the name Jairus, and he was a ruler of the synagogue: and falling at the feet of Jesus, he continued to intreat Him to come into his house;

42 for there was an only daughter to him, of twelve years, and she was dying. And while He was going the multitudes were thronging Him.

43 And a woman being in an issue of blood twelve years, who having expended all her living with physicians, was not able to be healed by any of them,

44 and having come to Him behind, she touched the hem of His garment: and immediately the issue of blood ceased.

45 And Jesus said, Who is the one having touched me? And all denying, Peter and the disciples with Him said, The multitudes crowd thee and press upon thee, and dost thou say, Who is the one having touched me?

46 And Jesus said, Some one touched me: for I know the power went out from me.

47 And the woman seeing that she was not concealed, came trembling, and falling down before Him, proclaimed on account of what cause she touched Him, in the presence of all the people, and how she was healed immediately.

48 And He said to her, Be of good cheer, daughter; thy faith hath saved thee; go in peace.

49 And He yet speaking, a certain one comes from the house of the chief ruler of the synagogue, saying to him, Thy daughter is dead; trouble not the Teacher:

50 and Jesus hearing, responded to him, saying, Fear not: only believe, and she shall be saved.

51 And having come to the house, He did not suffer any to enter except Peter, John, and James, and the father and mother of the child.

52 And they were all weeping, and wailing over her: and He said, Weep not; she is not dead, but sleepeth.

53 And they hooted at Him, knowing that she was dead.

54 And having put all out, taking her by the hand, He spoke, saying, Child, arise.

55 And her spirit returned, and she stood up immediately. And He commanded that something should be given to her to eat.

56 And her parents were delighted: and He commanded them to tell no one that which had taken place.
