Chapter 5
Mark Webster 5:1  And they came over to the other side of the sea, into the country of the Gadarenes.
Mark Webster 5:2  And when he had come out of the boat, immediately there met him out of the tombs a man with an unclean spirit,
Mark Webster 5:3  Who had [his] dwelling among the tombs; and no man could bind him, no, not with chains:
Mark Webster 5:4  For he had been often bound with fetters and chains, and the chains had been plucked asunder by him, and the fetters broken in pieces: neither could any [man] tame him.
Mark Webster 5:5  And always, night and day, he was on the mountains, and in the tombs, crying, and cutting himself with stones.
Mark Webster 5:6  But when he saw Jesus afar off, he ran and worshiped him,
Mark Webster 5:7  And cried with a loud voice, and said, What have I to do with thee, Jesus, [thou] Son of the Most High God? I adjure thee by God, that thou torment me not.
Mark Webster 5:8  (For he said to him, Come out of the man, [thou] unclean spirit.)
Mark Webster 5:9  And he asked him, What [is] thy name? And he answered, saying, My name [is] Legion: for we are many.
Mark Webster 5:10  And he besought him much that he would not send them away out of the country.
Mark Webster 5:11  Now there was there nigh to the mountains a great herd of swine feeding.
Mark Webster 5:12  And all the demons besought him, saying, Send us into the swine, that we may enter into them.
Mark Webster 5:13  And forthwith Jesus gave them leave. And the unclean spirits went out, and entered into the swine: and the herd ran violently down a steep place into the sea (they were about two thousand) and were choked in the sea.
Mark Webster 5:14  And they that fed the swine fled, and told [it] in the city, and in the country. And they went out to see what it was that was done.
Mark Webster 5:15  And they come to Jesus, and see him that was possessed with the demon, and had the legion, sitting, and clothed, and in his right mind: and they were afraid.
Mark Webster 5:16  And they that saw [it] told them how it befell him that was possessed with the demon, and [also] concerning the swine.
Mark Webster 5:17  And they began to pray him to depart out of their borders.
Mark Webster 5:18  And when he had come into the boat, he that had been possessed with the demon prayed him that he might be with him.
Mark Webster 5:19  Yet Jesus suffered him not, but saith to him, Go home to thy friends, and tell them how great things the Lord hath done for thee, and hath had compassion on thee.
Mark Webster 5:20  And he departed, and began to publish in Decapolis how great things Jesus had done for him. And all [men] wondered.
Mark Webster 5:21  And when Jesus had passed over again in a boat to the other side, much people gathered to him: and he was nigh to the sea.
Mark Webster 5:22  And behold, there cometh one of the rulers of the synagogue, Jairus by name; and when he saw him, he fell at his feet,
Mark Webster 5:23  And besought him greatly, saying, My little daughter lieth at the point of death: [I pray thee], come and lay thy hands on her, that she may be healed; and she will live.
Mark Webster 5:24  And [Jesus] went with him; and many people followed him, and thronged him.
Mark Webster 5:25  And a certain woman who had an issue of blood twelve years,
Mark Webster 5:26  And had suffered many things from many physicians, and had spent all that she had, and was not relieved, but rather grew worse,
Mark Webster 5:27  When she had heard of Jesus, came in the crowd behind, and touched his garment.
Mark Webster 5:28  For she said, If I may touch but his clothes, I shall be whole.
Mark Webster 5:29  And immediately the fountain of her blood was dried up; and she felt in [her] body that she was healed of that infirmity.
Mark Webster 5:30  And Jesus, immediately knowing in himself that virtue had gone out of him, turned him about in the throng, and said, Who touched my clothes?
Mark Webster 5:31  And his disciples said to him, Thou seest the multitude thronging thee, and sayest thou, Who touched me?
Mark Webster 5:32  And he looked around, to see her that had done this thing.
Mark Webster 5:33  But the woman fearing and trembling, knowing what was done in her, came and fell down before him, and told him all the truth.
Mark Webster 5:34  And he said to her, Daughter, thy faith hath made thee whole; go in peace, and be healed of thy infirmity.
Mark Webster 5:35  While he was yet speaking, there came from the ruler of the synagogue's [house certain] who said, Thy daughter is dead: why troublest thou the Master any further?
Mark Webster 5:36  As soon as Jesus heard the word that was spoken, he saith to the ruler of the synagogue, Be not afraid, only believe,
Mark Webster 5:37  And he suffered no man to follow him, save Peter, and James, and John the brother of James.
Mark Webster 5:38  And he cometh to the house of the ruler of the synagogue, and seeth the tumult, and them that wept and wailed greatly.
Mark Webster 5:39  And when he had come in, he saith to them, Why make ye this tumult, and weep? the damsel is not dead, but sleepeth.
Mark Webster 5:40  And they derided him: but when he had put them all out, he taketh the father and the mother of the damsel, and them that were with him, and entereth in where the damsel was lying.
Mark Webster 5:41  And he took the damsel by the hand, and said to her, Talitha cumi: which is, being interpreted, Damsel (I say to thee) arise.
Mark Webster 5:42  And forthwith the damsel arose, and walked; for she was [of the age] of twelve years. And they were astonished with a great astonishment.
Mark Webster 5:43  And he charged them strictly that no man should know it; and commanded that something should be given her to eat.
