Mark 5:11-27 English Revised Version (ERV)

11. Now there was there on the mountain side a great herd of swine feeding.

12. And they besought him, saying, Send us into the swine, that we may enter into them.

13. And he gave them leave. And the unclean spirits came out, and entered into the swine: and the herd rushed down the steep into the sea, in number about two thousand; and they were choked in the sea.

14. And they that fed them fled, and told it in the city, and in the country. And they came to see what it was that had come to pass.

15. And they come to Jesus, and behold him that was possessed with devils sitting, clothed and in his right mind, even him that had the legion: and they were afraid.

16. And they that saw it declared unto them how it befell him that was possessed with devils, and concerning the swine.

17. And they began to beseech him to depart from their borders.

18. And as he was entering into the boat, he that had been possessed with devils besought him that he might be with him.

19. And he suffered him not, but saith unto him, Go to thy house unto thy friends, and tell them how great things the Lord hath done for thee, and how he had mercy on thee.

20. And he went his way, and began to publish in Decapolis how great things Jesus had done for him: and all men did marvel.

21. And when Jesus had crossed over again in the boat unto the other side, a great multitude was gathered unto him: and he was by the sea.

22. And there cometh one of the rulers of the synagogue, Jairus by name; and seeing him, he falleth at his feet,

23. and beseecheth him much, saying, My little daughter is at the point of death: I pray thee, that thou come and lay thy hands on her, that she may be made whole, and live.

24. And he went with him; and a great multitude followed him, and they thronged him.

25. And a woman, which had an issue of blood twelve years,

26. and had suffered many things of many physicians, and had spent all that she had, and was nothing bettered, but rather grew worse,

27. having heard the things concerning Jesus, came in the crowd behind, and touched his garment.
