d breaking the bonds, he was driven by the devil into the
deserts.

8:30. And Jesus asked him, saying: What is thy name? But he said:
Legion. Because many devils were entered into him.

8:31. And they besought him that he would not command them to go into
the abyss.

8:32. And there was there a herd of many swine feeding on the mountain:
and they besought him that he would suffer them to enter into them. And
he suffered them.

8:33. The devils therefore went out of the man and entered into the
swine. And the herd ran violently down a steep place into the lake and
were stifled.

8:34. Which when they that fed them saw done, they fled away and told it
in the city and in the villages.

8:35. And they went out to see what was done. And they came to Jesus and
found the man out of whom the devils were departed, sitting at his feet,
clothed and in his right mind. And they were afraid.

8:36. And they also that had seen told them how he had been healed from
the legion.

8:37. And all the multitude of the country of the Gerasens besought him
to depart from them: for they were taken with great fear. And he, going
up into the ship, returned back again.

8:38. Now the man out of whom the devils were departed besought him that
he might be with him. But Jesus sent him away, saying:

8:39. Return to thy house and tell how great things God hath done to
thee. And he went through the whole city, publishing how great things
Jesus had done to him.

8:40. And it came to pass that when Jesus was returned, the multitude
received him: for they were all waiting for him.

8:41. And behold there came a man whose name was Jairus: and he was a
ruler of the synagogue. And he fell down at the feet of Jesus,
beseeching him that he would come into his house:

8:42. For he had an only daughter, almost twelve years old, and she was
dying. And it happened as he went that he was thronged by the
multitudes.

8:43. And there was a certain woman having an issue of blood twelve
years, who had bestowed all her substance on physicians and could not be
healed by any.

8:44. She came behind him and touched the hem of his garment: and
immediately the issue of her blood stopped.

8:45. And Jesus said: Who is it that touched me? And all denying, Peter
and they that were with him said: Master, the multitudes throng and
press thee; and dost thou say, who touched me?

8:46. And Jesus said: Somebody hath touched me; for I know that virtue
is gone
