Mark 5:10-27 Modern English Version (MEV)

10. And he begged Him repeatedly not to send them away out of the country.

11. Now there was a great herd of swine feeding near the mountains.

12. All the demons pleaded with Him, asking, “Send us to the swine, so that we may enter them.”

13. At once, Jesus gave them leave. Then the unclean spirits came out and entered the swine. And the herd, numbering about two thousand, ran wildly down a steep hill into the sea and were drowned in the sea.

14. Those who fed the swine fled and reported it in the city and in the country. And people went out to see what it was that had happened.

15. They came to Jesus and saw him who had been possessed with the legion of demons sitting and clothed and in his right mind. And they were afraid.

16. Those who saw it told them how it befell him who had been possessed with the demons and also concerning the swine.

17. Then they began to plead with Him to depart out of their region.

18. When He entered the boat, he who had been possessed with the demons prayed Him that he might be with Him.

19. Jesus did not let him, but said to him, “Go home to your friends and tell them what great things the Lord has done for you and how He has had compassion on you.”

20. So he departed and began to proclaim in the Decapolis what great things Jesus had done for him. And everyone was amazed.

21. When Jesus had crossed again by boat to the other side, many people gathered to Him. And He was beside the sea.

22. One of the rulers of the synagogue, named Jairus, saw Jesus and came and fell at His feet

23. and earnestly asked Him, “My little daughter is lying at the point of death. I ask You, come and lay Your hands on her, so that she may be healed. And she will live.”

24. So Jesus went with him.And many people followed Him and pressed in on Him.

25. And a certain woman had a hemorrhage for twelve years,

26. and had suffered much under many physicians. She had spent all that she had, and was not better but rather grew worse.

27. When she had heard of Jesus, she came in the crowd behind Him and touched His garment.
