13. And he permitted them. And the unclean spirits came out and entered into the pigs, and the herd—about two thousand—rushed headlong down the steep slope into the sea and were drowned in the sea.
14. And their herdsmen fled and reported it in the town and in the countryside, and they came to see what it was that had happened.
15. And they came to Jesus and saw the demon-possessed man sitting there clothed and in his right mind—the one who had had the legion—and they were afraid.
16. And those who had seen it described to them what had happened to the demon-possessed man, and about the pigs.
17. And they began to urge him to depart from their region.
18. And as he was getting into the boat, the man who had been demon-possessed began to implore him that he could go with him.
19. And he did not permit him, but said to him, “Go to your home to your people and tell them all that the Lord has done for you, and that he has had mercy on you.”
20. And he went away and began to proclaim in the Decapolis all that Jesus had done for him, and they were all astonished.
21. And after Jesus had crossed over again in the boat to the other side, a large crowd gathered to him, and he was beside the sea.
22. And one of the rulers of the synagogue came—Jairus by name—and when he saw him, he fell down at his feet.
23. And he was imploring him many times, saying, “My little daughter is at the point of death! Come, lay your hands on her, so that she will get well and will live.”
24. And he went with him, and a large crowd was following him and pressing around him.
25. And there was a woman who was suffering from hemorrhages twelve years.
26. And she had endured many things under many physicians, and had spent all that she had and had received no help at all, but instead became worse.
27. When she heard about Jesus, she came up in the crowd behind him and touched his cloak,
28. for she was saying, “If I touch just his clothing, I will be healed!”
29. And immediately her hemorrhage stopped and she realized in her body that she was healed of her suffering.
30. And immediately Jesus, perceiving in himself that power had gone out from himself, turned around in the crowd and said, “Who touched my clothing?”
31. And his disciples said to him, “You see the crowd pressing upon you, and you say ‘Who touched me?’ ”
