WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)
1 Cuando llegaron al otro lado del lago, a la tierra de Gerasa,
1 They came to the other side of the sea, into the country of the Gadarenes.
2 en cuanto Jesús puso pie en tierra, un endemoniado salió del cementerio y se le acercó.
2 When he had come out of the boat, immediately a man with an unclean spirit met him out of the tombs.
3 Vivía entre los sepulcros y tenía tanta fuerza que, cada vez que lo encadenaban de pies y manos, rompía las cadenas y se iba. Nadie tenía fuerza suficiente para dominarlo.
3 He lived in the tombs. Nobody could bind him any more, not even with chains,
4 Not in this translation
4 because he had been often bound with fetters and chains, and the chains had been torn apart by him, and the fetters broken in pieces. Nobody had the strength to tame him.
5 Día y noche vagaba solitario por los sepulcros y los montes gritando e hiriéndose con piedras afiladas.
5 Always, night and day, in the tombs and in the mountains, he was crying out, and cutting himself with stones.
6 Cuando vio a lo lejos que Jesús se acercaba, corrió a su encuentro, cayó de rodillas ante él
6 When he saw Jesus from afar, he ran and bowed down to him,
7 y gritó con fuerza: ―¿Qué tienes contra mí, Jesús, Hijo del Dios Altísimo? ¡Te suplico por Dios que no me atormentes!
7 and crying out with a loud voice, he said, “What have I to do with you, Jesus, you Son of the Most High God? I adjure you by God, don’t torment me.”
8 ―¡Sal de este hombre, espíritu inmundo! —le ordenó Jesús; y luego le preguntó: ―¿Cómo te llamas? El demonio le respondió: ―Legión, porque somos muchos.
8 For he said to him, “Come out of the man, you unclean spirit!”
9 Not in this translation
9 He asked him, “What is your name?” He said to him, “My name is Legion, for we are many.”
10 Los demonios le suplicaron que no los enviara lejos de aquella región.
10 He begged him much that he would not send them away out of the country.
11 Y como había por allí, cerca del cerro, un enorme hato de cerdos comiendo,
11 Now on the mountainside there was a great herd of pigs feeding.
12 le suplicaron los demonios: ―Envíanos a los cerdos y déjanos entrar en ellos.
12 All the demons begged him, saying, “Send us into the pigs, that we may enter into them.”
13 Al asentir Jesús, los espíritus inmundos salieron del hombre y entraron en los cerdos, que se precipitaron al lago por un despeñadero y se ahogaron. Eran como dos mil animales.
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 Los que cuidaban los cerdos corrieron a dar la noticia en la ciudad y en los campos, y la gente salió a ver lo que había sucedido.
14 Those who fed the pigs fled, and told it in the city and in the country. The people came to see what it was that had happened.
15 Cuando llegaron a donde estaba Jesús, vieron sentado allí, vestido y en su pleno juicio, al que había estado endemoniado. Y les dio mucho miedo.
15 They came to Jesus, and saw him who had been possessed by demons sitting, clothed, and in his right mind, even him who had the legion; and they were afraid.
16 Al contarles los testigos presenciales lo ocurrido,
16 Those who saw it declared to them what happened to him who was possessed by demons, and about the pigs.
17 le pidieron a Jesús que se fuera de allí.
17 They began to beg him to depart from their region.
18 Jesús ya iba a regresar en la barca cuando se le acercó el que había estado endemoniado y le suplicó que lo dejara ir con él.
18 As he was entering into the boat, he who had been possessed by demons begged him that he might be with him.
19 Pero Jesús le dijo: ―No. Vete a tu casa, con los tuyos, y cuéntales las maravillas que el Señor ha hecho contigo, y cómo tuvo misericordia de ti.
19 He didn’t allow him, but said to him, “Go to your house, to your friends, and tell them what great things the Lord has done for you and how he had mercy on you.”
20 Aquel hombre recorrió la Decápolis contando las grandes cosas que Jesús había hecho con él. Y la gente se maravillaba al oírlo.
20 He went his way, and began to proclaim in Decapolis how Jesus had done great things for him, and everyone marveled.
21 Cuando Jesús desembarcó en la otra orilla del lago, una enorme multitud se reunió a su alrededor.
21 When Jesus had crossed back over in the boat to the other side, a great multitude was gathered to him; and he was by the sea.
22 De la multitud se adelantó un hombre que se postró a los pies de Jesús. Era Jairo, uno de los jefes de la sinagoga.
22 Behold, one of the rulers of the synagogue, Jairus by name, came; and seeing him, he fell at his feet
23 ―Señor —le suplicaba—, mi hija se está muriendo. Ven y pon tus manos sobre ella, porque yo sé que puedes hacer que viva.
23 and begged him much, saying, “My little daughter is at the point of death. Please come and lay your hands on her, that she may be made healthy, and live.”
24 Jesús lo acompañó. En medio de aquella multitud que se apretujaba a su alrededor, estaba una mujer que durante los últimos doce años había estado enferma con cierto tipo de derrame de sangre.
24 He went with him, and a great multitude followed him, and they pressed upon him on all sides.
25 Not in this translation
25 A certain woman who had a discharge of blood for twelve years,
26 Hacía mucho que sufría en manos de los médicos, y a pesar de haber gastado todo lo que tenía, en vez de mejorar estaba 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 Enterada de lo que Jesús hacía, se le acercó por detrás, entre la multitud, y le tocó el manto,
27 having heard the things concerning Jesus, came up behind him in the crowd and touched his clothes.
28 porque pensaba que al tocarlo, sanaría.
28 For she said, “If I just touch his clothes, I will be made well.”
29 Y, en efecto, tan pronto como lo tocó, el derrame cesó y se sintió perfectamente bien.
29 Immediately the flow of her blood was dried up, and she felt in her body that she was healed of her affliction.
30 Jesús se dio cuenta en seguida de que de él había salido poder; por eso se volvió y le preguntó a la multitud: ―¿Quién me tocó?
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 Sus discípulos le respondieron: ―¿Cómo se te ocurre preguntar quién te tocó si ves que todo el mundo te está apretujando?
31 His disciples said to him, “You see the multitude pressing against you, and you say, ‘Who touched me?’”
32 Él siguió mirando a su alrededor en busca de quién lo había hecho.
32 He looked around to see her who had done this thing.
33 La mujer, temblando de miedo y consciente de lo que le había pasado, se arrodilló delante de él y le confesó toda la verdad.
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 Jesús le dijo: ―Hija, tu fe te ha sanado; vete en paz, que ya no estás enferma.
34 He said to her, “Daughter, your faith has made you well. Go in peace, and be cured of your disease.”
35 Mientras decía esto, llegaron de la casa de Jairo a darle la noticia de que su hija había muerto y decirle que ya no era necesario que siguiera molestando 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 Al darse cuenta, Jesús le dijo al jefe de la sinagoga: ―No temas. Sólo cree.
36 But Jesus, when he heard the message spoken, immediately said to the ruler of the synagogue, “Don’t be afraid, only believe.”
37 Y no permitió que nadie fuera con él sino Pedro y los hermanos Jacobo y Juan.
37 He allowed no one to follow him except Peter, James, and John the brother of James.
38 Al llegar a la casa del jefe de la sinagoga y ver que había mucho alboroto y gran llanto y dolor,
38 He came to the synagogue ruler’s house, and he saw an uproar, weeping, and great wailing.
39 Jesús les dijo a los que allí estaban: ―¿Por qué hacen tanto llanto y alboroto? La niña no está muerta; sólo está dormida.
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 La gente se rio de Jesús; pero Jesús les ordenó a todos que salieran y él, con el padre, la madre y los discípulos que lo acompañaban entró al cuarto en que reposaba la niña.
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 La tomó de la mano y le dijo: ―Talita cum (que significa: Levántate, niña).
41 Taking the child by the hand, he said to her, “Talitha cumi!” which means, being interpreted, “Girl, I tell you, get up!”
42 En el mismo instante, la niña, de doce años de edad, se levantó y caminó. Jesús ordenó que le dieran de comer. La gente quedó muy admirada, pero Jesús les suplicó encarecidamente que no lo dijeran a nadie.
42 Immediately the girl rose up and walked, for she was twelve years old. They were amazed with great amazement.
43 Not in this translation
43 He strictly ordered them that no one should know this, and commanded that something should be given to her to eat.

What the Fathers said

Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).

How these were chosen

“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).

  1. Quotes verse 5:31 Irenaeus of Lyons, Against Heresies (Book I, Chapters III–IV)

    For after she had been thus afflicted during twelve years, she was healed by the advent of the Saviour, when she had touched the border of His garment; and on this account the Saviour said, "Who touched me?" --teaching his disciples the mystery which had occurred among the Æons, and the healing of that Æon who had been involved in …

    With this view He both walks more leisurely, and discourses more with the woman; that He might give time for the damsel to die, and for those to come, who told of it, and said, "Trouble not the Master." This again surely the evangelist obscurely signifies, when he saith, "While He yet spake, there came from the house certain which …
