1 Fueron a la otra orilla del mar, a la región de los gerasenos.
1 They came to the other side of the sea, into the country of the Gadarenes.
2 Cuando [Jesús] salió de la barca, un hombre que tenía un espíritu impuro fue a Él desde los sepulcros.
2 When he had come out of the boat, immediately a man with an unclean spirit met him out of the tombs.
3 Éste vivía en las tumbas. Nadie podía atarlo, ni siquiera con cadena,
3 He lived in the tombs. Nobody could bind him any more, not even with chains,
4 porque muchas veces lo ataban con grillos y cadenas, y los rompía. Nadie podía someterlo.
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 Continuamente, de noche y de día, estaba en los sepulcros y las montañas. Daba alaridos y se hería con piedras.
5 Always, night and day, in the tombs and in the mountains, he was crying out, and cutting himself with stones.
6 Cuando vio de lejos a Jesús, corrió, cayó delante de Él
6 When he saw Jesus from afar, he ran and bowed down to him,
7 y clamó a gran voz: ¿Qué [nos pasa] a mí y a Ti, Jesús, Hijo del Dios Altísimo? ¡Te imploro 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 Pues [Jesús] le decía: ¡Sal del hombre, espíritu impuro!
8 For he said to him, “Come out of the man, you unclean spirit!”
9 Y le preguntó: ¿Cómo te llamas? Le respondió: Me llamo Legión, porque somos muchos.
9 He asked him, “What is your name?” He said to him, “My name is Legion, for we are many.”
10 Le rogaba mucho que no lo enviara fuera de la región.
10 He begged him much that he would not send them away out of the country.
11 Cerca de la montaña había una gran piara de cerdos.
11 Now on the mountainside there was a great herd of pigs feeding.
12 Le rogaron: Envíanos a los cerdos para que entremos en ellos.
12 All the demons begged him, saying, “Send us into the pigs, that we may enter into them.”
13 [Jesús] les permitió. Al salir los espíritus impuros, entraron en los cerdos. La piara, que era como 2.000, corrió por el acantilado al mar y se ahogaron.
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 apacentaban los cerdos huyeron e informaron en la ciudad y en los campos. Y [la gente] fue a ver lo 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 Llegaron ante Jesús y contemplaron al endemoniado que tuvo la legión, sentado, vestido y en su juicio cabal, y tuvieron 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 Los que lo vieron relataron qué hizo [Jesús] al endemoniado, y [lo ]de los cerdos.
16 Those who saw it declared to them what happened to him who was possessed by demons, and about the pigs.
17 Entonces le rogaron que saliera de su región.
17 They began to beg him to depart from their region.
18 Al entrar [Jesús] en la barca, el que estuvo endemoniado le rogaba que le permitiera estar 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 no lo dejó, sino le dijo: Vé a tu casa, a tu familia. Cuéntales cuán grandes cosas te hizo el Señor, 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 Así que él fue y comenzó a proclamar en Decápolis cuán grandes cosas Jesús hizo por él, y todos se maravillaban.
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 regresó a la otra orilla, se reunió una gran multitud alrededor de Él, y estaba junto al mar.
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 Se acercó Jairo, uno de los oficiales de la congregación de los judíos. Cuando lo vio se postró a sus pies
22 Behold, one of the rulers of the synagogue, Jairus by name, came; and seeing him, he fell at his feet
23 y le suplicaba: Mi hijita está cerca de la muerte. Vé, pon las manos sobre ella para que sane.
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 Fue con él, y lo seguía una gran multitud que lo apretujaban.
24 He went with him, and a great multitude followed him, and they pressed upon him on all sides.
25 Una mujer había estado con flujo de sangre por 12 años.
25 A certain woman who had a discharge of blood for twelve years,
26 Había sufrido mucho en manos de los médicos y gastado cuanto tenía y de nada le había servido. Al contrario, había empeorado.
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 Cuando escuchó con respecto a Jesús, llegó por detrás entre la multitud y tocó su ropa.
27 having heard the things concerning Jesus, came up behind him in the crowd and touched his clothes.
28 Porque decía: si toco su ropa, seré sanada.
28 For she said, “If I just touch his clothes, I will be made well.”
29 Al instante el flujo de sangre se secó y notó que fue sanada.
29 Immediately the flow of her blood was dried up, and she felt in her body that she was healed of her affliction.
30 De inmediato Jesús, al entender que un poder salió de Él, dio la vuelta hacia la multitud y preguntó: ¿Quién tocó mi ropa?
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 dijeron: Ves que la multitud te apretuja y preguntas ¿quién me tocó?
31 His disciples said to him, “You see the multitude pressing against you, and you say, ‘Who touched me?’”
32 Y miró alrededor para ver quién hizo esto.
32 He looked around to see her who had done this thing.
33 Entonces la mujer, temerosa y temblorosa, pues entendía lo que le sucedió, se postró ante Él y le dijo 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 Él le dijo: Hija, tu fe te sanó. Vé en paz. 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 Mientras aún hablaba, llegaron algunos de parte del jefe de la congregación y dijeron: Tu hija murió. ¿Para qué aún molestas 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 Pero Jesús oyó lo que se hablaba y le dijo al jefe de la congregación: No temas, solo 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 Solo permitió que lo acompañaran Pedro, Jacobo y Juan, el hermano de Jacobo.
37 He allowed no one to follow him except Peter, James, and John the brother of James.
38 Al llegar a la casa [de Jairo], el jefe de la congregación, observó un alboroto: unos lloraban y daban grandes alaridos.
38 He came to the synagogue ruler’s house, and he saw an uproar, weeping, and great wailing.
39 Cuando [Jesús] entró, les preguntó: ¿Por qué están atribulados y lloran? La niña no murió, sino duerme.
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 Y se burlaban de Él. Entonces Jesús sacó a todos de la casa. Tomó con Él a los padres de la niña y a los discípulos que lo acompañaban, y entró donde estaba 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 [Jesús] tomó la mano de la niña y dijo: Talita cum, que significa: Niña, 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 Al instante la niña [se] levantó y andaba, pues tenía 12 años. Y los que observaban quedaron grandemente asombrados.
42 Immediately the girl rose up and walked, for she was twelve years old. They were amazed with great amazement.
43 Les encargó mucho que nadie supiera esto, y dijo que se le diera de comer.
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).
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 …
And as He is going, it is announced that she is dead; and as though He would now be only wearying Himself in vain, word was brought to her father, "Thy daughter is dead, why weariest thou the Master any further?" But He went on, and said to the father of the damsel, "Be not afraid, only believe." He comes …

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 …
