13 At once Jesus gave them permission. The unclean spirits came out and entered into the pigs. The herd of about two thousand rushed down the steep bank into the sea, and they were drowned in the sea.
14 And the swineheards fled, and told it in the citie, and in the countrey, and they came out to see what it was that was done.

25 A certain woman who had a discharge of blood for twelve years,
26 And had suffred many things of many physicions, and had spent all that she had, and it auailed her nothing, but she became much worse.
26 Y había sufrido mucho de muchos médicos, y había gastado todo lo que tenía, y nada había aprovechado, antes le iba peor,
26 and had suffered many things by many physicians, and had spent all that she had, and was no better, but rather grew worse,
27 When she had heard of Iesus, shee came in the preasse behinde, and touched his garment.
27 Como oyó [hablar] de Jesús, llegó por detrás entre la compañía, y tocó su vestido.
27 having heard the things concerning Jesus, came up behind him in the crowd and touched his clothes.
28 For she said, If I may but touch his clothes, I shalbe whole.
28 Porque decía: Si tocare tan solamente su vestido, seré salva.
28 For she said, “If I just touch his clothes, I will be made well.”
29 And straightway the course of her blood was dried vp, and she felt in her body, that she was healed of that plague.
29 Y luego la fuente de su sangre se secó; y sintió en el cuerpo que estaba sana de aquel azote.
29 Immediately the flow of her blood was dried up, and she felt in her body that she was healed of her affliction.
30 And immediatly when Iesus did knowe in himselfe the vertue that went out of him, he turned him round about in the preasse, and said, Who hath touched my clothes?
30 Y luego Jesús, conociendo en sí mismo la virtud que había salido de él, volviéndose á la compañía, dijo: ¿Quién ha tocado mis vestidos?
30 Immediately Jesus, perceiving in himself that the power had gone out from him, turned around in the crowd and asked, “Who touched my clothes?”

31 Y le dijeron sus discípulos: Ves que la multitud te aprieta, y dices: ¿Quién me ha tocado?
31 His disciples said to him, “You see the multitude pressing against you, and you say, ‘Who touched me?’”

32 He looked around to see her who had done this thing.
33 And the woman feared and trembled: for she knewe what was done in her, and shee came and fell downe before him, and tolde him the whole trueth.

33 But the woman, fearing and trembling, knowing what had been done to her, came and fell down before him, and told him all the truth.
34 And hee saide to her, Daughter, thy faith hath made thee whole: go in peace, and be whole of thy plague.)
34 Y él le dijo: Hija, tu fe te ha hecho salva: ve en paz, y queda sana de tu azote.
34 He said to her, “Daughter, your faith has made you well. Go in peace, and be cured of your disease.”
35 While hee yet spake, there came from the same ruler of the Synagogues house certaine which said, Thy daughter is dead: why diseasest thou the Master any further?
35 Hablando aún él, vinieron de casa del príncipe de la sinagoga, diciendo: Tu hija es muerta; ¿para qué fatigas más al Maestro?
35 While he was still speaking, people came from the synagogue ruler’s house, saying, “Your daughter is dead. Why bother the Teacher any more?”
36 Assoone as Iesus heard that word spoken, he said vnto the ruler of the Synagogue, Be not afraide: onely beleeue.
36 Mas luego Jesús, oyendo esta razón que se decía, dijo al príncipe de la sinagoga: No temas, cree solamente.
36 But Jesus, when he heard the message spoken, immediately said to the ruler of the synagogue, “Don’t be afraid, only believe.”
37 And he suffered no man to follow him saue Peter and Iames, and Iohn the brother of Iames.
37 Y no permitió que alguno viniese tras él sino Pedro, y Jacobo, y Juan hermano de Jacobo.
37 He allowed no one to follow him except Peter, James, and John the brother of James.
38 So hee came vnto the house of the ruler of the Synagogue, and sawe the tumult, and them that wept and wailed greatly.

39 When he had entered in, he said to them, “Why do you make an uproar and weep? The child is not dead, but is asleep.”
40 And they laught him to scorne: but hee put them all out, and tooke the father, and the mother of the childe, and them that were with him, and entred in where the childe lay,
40 Y hacían burla de él: mas él, echados fuera todos, toma al padre y á la madre de la muchacha, y á los que estaban con él, y entra donde la muchacha estaba.
40 They ridiculed him. But he, having put them all out, took the father of the child, her mother, and those who were with him, and went in where the child was lying.
41 And tooke the childe by the hand, and saide vnto her, Talitha cumi, which is by interpretation, Mayden, I say vnto thee, arise.
41 Y tomando la mano de la muchacha, le dice: Talitha cumi; que es, si lo interpretares: Muchacha, á ti digo, levántate.
41 Taking the child by the hand, he said to her, “Talitha cumi!” which means, being interpreted, “Girl, I tell you, get up!”
42 And straightway the mayden arose, and walked: for shee was of the age of twelue yeeres, and they were astonied out of measure.
42 Y luego la muchacha se levantó, y andaba; porque tenía doce años. Y se espantaron de grande espanto.
42 Immediately the girl rose up and walked, for she was twelve years old. They were amazed with great amazement.

“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
