17. And they began to petition him, so that he would withdraw from their borders.
18. And as he was climbing into the boat, the man who had been troubled by the demons began to beg him, so that he might be with him.
19. And he did not permit him, but he said to him, "Go to your own people, in your own house, and announce to them how great are the things that Lord has done for you, and how he has taken pity on you."
20. And he went away and began to preach in the Ten Cities, how great were the things that Jesus had done for him. And everyone wondered.

30. And immediately Jesus, realizing within himself that power that had gone out from him, turning to the crowd, said, "Who touched my garments?"
