馬可福音 5
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Traditional)
治好被鬼附身的人
5 他們來到湖對岸的格拉森地區。 2 耶穌剛下船,就遇見一個被污鬼附身的人從墳場迎面而來。 3 那人以墳場為家,從來沒有人能把他捆住,就算用鐵鏈也鎖不住他。 4 儘管有人多次用鐵鏈和腳鐐鎖住他,但他掙斷了鐵鏈,砸碎了腳鐐。沒有人能制伏他。 5 他晝夜在墳場和山野間大喊大叫,又用石頭砍自己。
6 他遠遠看見耶穌,就跑過去跪下來拜祂,喊著說: 7 「至高上帝的兒子耶穌啊,我和你有什麼關係?看在上帝的份上,求你不要折磨我!」 8 原來,耶穌已經對他身上的鬼說:「污鬼,從這人身上出來!」
9 耶穌問:「你叫什麼名字?」
他說:「我的名字叫『群』,因為我們是一大群。」
10 接著污鬼再三哀求耶穌,不要把牠們逐出那個地區。 11 當時有一大群豬在附近山坡上覓食。 12 污鬼就哀求耶穌說:「讓我們到豬群裡去,附在牠們身上吧!」
13 耶穌允許了,污鬼就離開那人,進入豬群。那群豬就一路奔下陡坡,衝進湖裡淹死了,約有兩千頭。
14 放豬的人都嚇跑了。他們把這消息傳遍了城裡鄉間,於是人人都跑來看個究竟。 15 他們到了耶穌那裡,看見那一度被群鬼附身的人神智清醒、衣著整齊地坐在那裡,都很害怕。 16 目睹這件事的人向他們講述整個經過。 17 他們請耶穌離開他們的地方。
18 耶穌上了船準備離開的時候,那被鬼附過的人懇求耶穌讓他隨行。 19 耶穌沒有答應,只對他說:「回去見你的家人,將主為你所做的事和祂憐憫你的經過告訴他們吧!」
20 這人就回到低加坡里一帶宣揚耶穌為他所行的奇事,大家都很驚奇。
耶穌醫治有信心的人
21 耶穌再坐船回到對岸,立刻有一大群人在岸邊圍著祂。 22 人群中有一位會堂的主管名叫雅魯,他一見到耶穌便俯伏在祂腳前, 23 懇求說:「我小女兒快要死了,求你去把手按在她身上,醫治她,救她一命。」
24 耶穌和他同去,一大群人跟著祂,擁擠著祂。
25 有一個婦人患血漏病已經十二年, 26 經過許多醫生的診治,受盡痛苦,耗盡錢財,病情仍沒有好轉,反而更加嚴重。 27 她聽見耶穌的事,就夾在人群中擠到耶穌背後摸祂的衣服, 28 心想:「只要摸到祂的衣服,我就痊癒了!」
29 她的血漏立刻停止了,她感到自己痊癒了。 30 耶穌馬上知道有能力從自己身上發出,便在人群中轉過身來問:「誰摸了我的衣服?」
31 門徒對祂說:「你看,這麼多人在你周圍擠來擠去,你怎麼問誰摸你呢?」
32 耶穌環視四周,要找出摸祂的人。 33 那婦人害怕得發抖,她知道在自己身上發生了什麼事,於是上前俯伏在耶穌面前,將實情說了出來。
34 耶穌說:「女兒,你的信心救了你。安心地回去吧!你的病好了。」
35 耶穌還在說話的時候,有人從雅魯家中趕來,對雅魯說:「你的女兒已經死了,何必麻煩老師呢?」
36 耶穌聽了,便對雅魯說:「不要怕,只要信。」 37 於是,祂帶著彼得、雅各和雅各的弟弟約翰去雅魯家,不准其他人跟著。 38 他們到了那裡,只見在場的人嚎啕大哭,場面混亂。 39 耶穌進去問道:「你們為什麼大哭大嚷呢?這孩子並沒有死,只是睡著了。」
40 這些人聽了,都譏笑祂。耶穌讓他們全部出去,然後帶著孩子的父母和三個門徒進了房間。 41 祂拉著孩子的手說:「大利大,古米!」意思是:「小女孩,我吩咐你起來!」
42 小女孩應聲而起,並且可以走動,那時她十二歲。在場的人都驚奇不已。 43 耶穌鄭重叮囑他們不要把這事張揚出去,又吩咐他們給女孩東西吃。
Mark 5
Worldwide English (New Testament)
5 They came to the other side of the sea, to the country of the Gadarene people.
2 There were graves in that place. As soon as Jesus came out of the boat, a man came from among the graves to meet him. The man had a bad spirit in him.
3 The man lived among the graves. No person could tie him, not even with chains.
4 Many times people had tied him with strong ropes and chains. But he broke the chains and tore the ropes into many pieces. No person was strong enough to hold the man.
5 All the time he stayed in the hills where the graves were. He screamed day and night and cut himself with sharp stones.
6 Jesus was still far from him, but when he saw Jesus he ran to him. He kneeled down in front of Jesus and worshipped him.
7 He called out loud, `Jesus, Son of the High God, what are you going to do to me? I beg you not to hurt me.'
8 He said this because Jesus had said to him, `You bad spirit, come out of the man.'
9 Jesus asked, `What is your name?' He answered, `My name is An Army, for we are many.'
10 He begged Jesus saying, `Do not send us out of the country.'
11 Many pigs were feeding on the hill there.
12 The bad spirits begged Jesus saying, `Send us to the pigs so that we can go into them.'
13 Jesus let them go right away. The bad spirits came out of the man and went into the pigs. The pigs ran fast down the steep hill into the sea. They died in the water. The number of pigs was about two thousand.
14 Then the men who cared for the pigs ran away. They told the people in the city and all around the country about it. The people went out to see what had happened.
15 They came to Jesus. They saw the man who had the many bad spirits in him. He was sitting with clothes on and was not crazy any more. The people were afraid.
16 Those who had seen it told them what had happened to the man who used to have many bad spirits. And they told about the pigs.
17 Then the people began to beg Jesus to go away out of their country.
18 So Jesus got into the boat again. The man who used to have the bad spirits in him begged to go with him.
19 But Jesus did not let him. He said, `Go home. Tell your friends what the Lord has done for you. Tell them that he has helped you.'
20 So the man went away and told people in the Ten Towns what Jesus had done for him. All the people were surprised.
21 Jesus crossed over the sea again to the other side. Many people came to him while he was near the water.
22 One of the rulers of the meeting house came to him. His name was Jairus. When he saw Jesus, he kneeled down before him.
23 He said, `My little daughter is dying. I beg you, come and put your hands on her so that she will be healed and live.'
24 So Jesus went with Jairus. Many people went with Jesus and pushed against him.
25 A woman among them had a sickness for twelve years. She was bleeding all the time.
26 Many doctors tried to heal her. She spent all the money she had to pay them. She was not better, but was getting worse.
27 When she heard of Jesus, she came among the people behind him. Then she reached out and touched his clothes.
28 She said to herself, `If only I touch his clothes, I will be well.'
29 The bleeding stopped right away. She could feel that she was healed of her trouble.
30 Jesus knew right away that power to heal went out from him. He turned around among the people and said, `Who touched my clothes?'
31 But his disciples said to him, `You see all these people pushing around you. Why do you ask, "Who touched me?" '
32 He looked around to see who had done it.
33 The woman was afraid and trembled. She knew what had happened to her. She kneeled down in front of Jesus and told him the truth about herself.
34 He said to her, `Daughter, you were healed because you believed. Go and do not be troubled. You are healed.'
35 While Jesus was still talking, some people came from the ruler's house. They said, `Your daughter has died. Why trouble the Teacher any more?'
36 Jesus heard it. He said to the ruler, `Do not fear. Only believe.'
37 Jesus did not let anyone go with him only Peter, James, and his brother John.
38 They came to the ruler's house. Jesus saw that there was trouble. People were crying and making much noise because the ruler's daughter had died.
39 When he came into the house, he said to them, `Why do you make so much noise and cry? The girl is not dead, but is sleeping.'
40 They laughed at him. So he sent them all outside. Then he took the girl's father and mother and the three disciples into the room where the girl was lying.
41 He took her hand and said, `Talitha cumi!' That means, `Little girl, I tell you, get up!'
42 The girl got up right away and walked around. She was twelve years old. The people were very much surprised.
43 Jesus said, `Do not tell anyone about this. Give the girl something to eat.'
