12. The unclean spirits urged Him, saying, “Send us to the pigs, so we may enter them.”
13. So Yeshua gave them permission. The unclean spirits came out and entered the pigs. And the herd, about two thousand in number, rushed down the cliff and were drowned in the sea.
14. The herdsmen ran away and told the town and countryside, and they came to see what had happened.
15. Now they came to Yeshua and saw the madman who had had the legion. He was sitting there, dressed in clothes and in his right mind. The people were scared.
16. Those who had seen it described in detail what had happened to the man plagued by a demon, and they also told about the pigs.
17. And they began to beg Yeshua to leave their country.
18. As He was getting into the boat, the man who had been infested with demons kept begging to remain with Him.
19. Yeshua did not let him, but He told him, “Go home to your friends and tell them how much Adonai has done for you, how He showed you mercy.”
20. So he went away and began to proclaim in the Decapolis how much Yeshua had done for him. And all were amazed.
21. When Yeshua had crossed over in the boat again to the other side, a big crowd gathered around Him; and He was by the sea.
22. Then one of the synagogue leaders, named Jairus, comes. Seeing Him, he falls at His feet.
23. He begs Him a great deal, saying, “My little daughter is near death! Come and lay hands on her so that she may be healed and live!”
24. So Yeshua went off with him, and a big crowd was following Him and pressing upon Him.
