New Testament

Luke 8:31-46 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

31. And they were begging Him that He would not command them to go out into the bottomless pit.

32. And a herd of many pigs was feeding there on the mountain. And they begged Him to allow them to go into them. And He allowed them.

33. And the demons, having gone out of the man, entered into the pigs, and the herd rushed down the steep place into the lake and drowned.

34. And when those feeding them saw what had taken place, they fled and reported it in the city and in the country.

35. So they came out to see what had taken place, and came to יהושע, and found the man from whom the demons had gone out, sitting at the feet of יהושע, dressed, and in his right mind. And they were afraid.

36. And those who had seen it reported to them how he who had been possessed by demons was healed.

37. And all the crowd of the neighbourhood of the Gaḏarenes asked Him to leave them, for they were seized with great fear. And He entered into the boat and returned.

38. And the man from whom the demons had gone out was begging Him to be with Him. But יהושע sent him away, saying,

39. “Go back to your house, and relate what Elohim has done for you.” And he went away proclaiming through all the city what יהושע did for him.

40. And it came to be, when יהושע returned, that the crowd gladly received Him, for they were all looking for Him.

41. And see, there came a man whose name was Ya’ir, and he was a ruler of the congregation. And falling down at the feet of יהושע he was calling upon Him to come to his house,

42. because he had an only daughter about twelve years of age, and she was dying. And as He went, the crowds thronged upon Him.

43. And a woman, having a flow of blood for twelve years, who, having spent all her livelihood on physicians, was unable to be healed by any,

44. came from behind and touched the tzitzit of His garment. And immediately her flow of blood stopped.

45. And יהושע said, “Who touched Me?” And when all denied it, Kĕpha and those with him said, “Master, the crowds throng You and press upon You, and You say, ‘Who touched Me?’ ”

46. But יהושע said, “Somebody did touch Me, for I knew power went out from Me.”
