Marc 5
La Bible du Semeur
Plus fort que les démons(A)
5 Ils arrivèrent de l’autre côté du lac, dans la région de Gérasa[a], 2 où Jésus débarqua. Aussitôt, sortant des tombeaux[b], un homme qui était sous l’emprise d’un esprit mauvais vint à sa rencontre. 3 Il habitait dans les tombeaux et, même avec une chaîne, personne ne pouvait plus le tenir attaché. 4 Car on l’avait souvent enchaîné et on lui avait mis des fers aux pieds, mais il cassait les chaînes et brisait les fers : personne ne pouvait le maîtriser. 5 Sans cesse, nuit et jour, il errait parmi les tombes et sur les montagnes en hurlant, se blessant contre les rochers.
6 D’aussi loin qu’il vit Jésus, il accourut, se prosterna devant lui 7 et lui cria de toutes ses forces : Que me veux-tu, Jésus, Fils du Dieu très-haut ? Je t’en conjure, au nom de Dieu, ne me tourmente pas !
8 Car Jésus lui disait : Esprit mauvais, sors de cet homme !
9 Jésus lui demanda : Quel est ton nom ?
– Je m’appelle Légion, lui répondit-il, car nous sommes une multitude.
10 Et il pria instamment Jésus de ne pas les renvoyer du pays. 11 Or, il y avait par là, sur la montagne, un grand troupeau de porcs[c] en train de paître.
12 Les esprits mauvais supplièrent Jésus : Envoie-nous dans ces porcs, pour que nous entrions en eux !
13 Jésus le leur permit. Ils sortirent donc de l’homme et entrèrent dans les porcs. Aussitôt, le troupeau, qui comptait environ deux mille bêtes, s’élança du haut de la pente et se précipita dans le lac où elles se noyèrent.
14 Les gardiens s’enfuirent et allèrent raconter l’histoire dans la ville et dans les fermes. Les gens vinrent donc voir ce qui s’était passé. 15 Arrivés auprès de Jésus, ils virent l’homme qui avait été sous l’emprise de cette légion de démons, assis là, habillé et tout à fait sain d’esprit. Alors la crainte s’empara d’eux. 16 Ceux qui avaient assisté à la scène leur racontèrent ce qui était arrivé à cet homme et aux porcs ; 17 et les gens se mirent à supplier Jésus de quitter leur territoire.
18 Au moment où Jésus remontait dans le bateau, l’homme qui avait été délivré des démons lui demanda s’il pouvait l’accompagner.
19 Mais Jésus ne le lui permit pas. Il lui dit : Va, rentre chez toi, auprès des tiens, et raconte-leur ce que le Seigneur a fait pour toi et quelle compassion il a eu pour toi.
20 Alors il s’en alla et se mit à proclamer dans la région des « Dix Villes »[d] ce que Jésus avait fait pour lui – au grand étonnement de ceux qui l’écoutaient.
Plus fort que la maladie et la mort(B)
21 Jésus regagna en bateau l’autre rive du lac. Là, une foule immense s’assembla autour de lui sur le rivage.
22 Survint alors l’un des responsables de la synagogue, nommé Jaïrus. En voyant Jésus, il se jeta à ses pieds 23 et le supplia instamment : Ma petite fille va mourir. Viens lui imposer les mains pour qu’elle guérisse et qu’elle vive.
24 Alors Jésus partit avec lui, suivi d’une foule nombreuse qui le serrait de tous côtés. 25 Dans la foule se trouvait une femme atteinte d’hémorragies depuis douze ans. 26 Elle avait été soignée par de nombreux médecins et en avait beaucoup souffert. Elle avait dépensé toute sa fortune sans trouver la moindre amélioration ; au contraire, son état avait empiré. 27 Elle avait entendu parler de Jésus, et dans la foule, elle s’était approchée de lui par-derrière et avait touché son vêtement, 28 en se disant : Si j’arrive à toucher ses vêtements, je serai guérie.
29 A l’instant même, son hémorragie s’arrêta et elle se sentit délivrée de son mal.
30 Aussitôt Jésus eut conscience qu’une force était sortie de lui. Il se retourna dans la foule et demanda : Qui a touché mes vêtements ?
31 Ses disciples lui dirent : Tu vois la foule qui te presse de tous côtés et tu demandes : « Qui m’a touché ? »
32 Mais lui continuait à parcourir la foule du regard pour voir celle qui avait fait cela. 33 Alors, saisie de crainte et toute tremblante, la femme, sachant ce qui lui était arrivé, s’avança, se jeta aux pieds de Jésus et lui dit toute la vérité.
34 Jésus lui dit : Ma fille, parce que tu as eu foi en moi, tu es guérie[e] ; va en paix et sois guérie de ton mal.
35 Pendant qu’il parlait encore, quelques personnes arrivèrent de chez le chef de la synagogue pour lui dire : Ta fille est morte. A quoi bon importuner encore le Maître ?
36 Mais Jésus entendit ces paroles. Il dit au chef de la synagogue : Ne crains pas. Crois seulement !
37 Il ne permit à personne de le suivre plus loin, excepté Pierre, Jacques et Jean, son frère. 38 En arrivant à la maison du chef de la synagogue, Jésus vit une grande agitation : on pleurait et on poussait des cris[f].
39 Il entra dans la maison et dit : Pourquoi ce tumulte ? Pourquoi ces pleurs ? L’enfant n’est pas morte, elle est seulement endormie.
40 Mais on se moqua de lui.
Alors il fit sortir tout le monde, prit avec lui le père et la mère de l’enfant ainsi que les disciples qui l’accompagnaient, et il entra dans la pièce où l’enfant était couchée. 41 Il lui prit la main en disant : Talitha koumi[g], ce qui signifie : Jeune fille, lève-toi, je te l’ordonne.
42 Aussitôt, la jeune fille se mit debout et marcha. Elle avait environ douze ans. Tous furent frappés de stupeur. 43 Jésus leur recommanda instamment de ne raconter ce miracle à personne et il leur dit de donner à manger à la jeune fille.

Biblija: suvremeni hrvatski prijevod
Isus oslobađa opsjednutoga
(Mt 8,28-34; Lk 8,26-39)
5 Isus i njegovi učenici došli su na suprotnu stranu jezera, na gerasko područje. 2 Čim je Isus izašao iz čamca, ususret mu je, iz pećine koja je služila kao grobnica, izašao čovjek u kojem je bio zao duh. 3 Čovjek je živio po grobnicama i nitko ga nije mogao svezati, čak ni lancima. 4 Često su ga vezali i na noge mu stavljali željezne okove, no on bi uvijek rastrgao lance i polomio okove. Nitko ga nije mogao obuzdati. 5 Stalno, danju i noću, lutao je po grobnicama i brdima. Urlao je i ranjavao se kamenjem.
6 Kad je izdaleka ugledao Isusa, potrčao je prema njemu i pao na koljena. 7 Povikao je iz svega glasa: »Što hoćeš od mene, Isuse, Sine Svevišnjega Boga? Zaklinjem te pred Bogom da me ne mučiš.« 8 Jer, Isus mu je bio rekao: »Izađi iz čovjeka, ti nečisti duše!«
9 A Isus ga je upitao: »Kako se zoveš?«
Odgovorio mu je: »Zovem se Legija[a] jer nas ima mnogo.« 10 Duhovi su nastavili preklinjati Isusa da ih ne protjera s toga područja.
11 Na obronku obližnjeg brežuljka paslo je veliko krdo svinja. 12 Zli su duhovi molili Isusa: »Pošalji nas u svinje, da uđemo u njih.« 13 I on im je dopustio. Tako su nečisti duhovi izašli iz čovjeka i ušli u svinje. Krdo se sjurilo niz strminu u jezero. U krdu je bilo oko dvije tisuće svinja i sve su se utopile.
14 Čuvari svinja pobjegli su i razglasili o tome u gradu i po selima pa su ljudi otišli da vide što se dogodilo. 15 Došli su k Isusu i spazili čovjeka koji je u sebi imao mnoštvo zlih duhova kako sjedi odjeven i bistrog uma. I svi su se uplašili. 16 Oni koji su vidjeli što se dogodilo, objasnili su što se zbilo s opsjednutim i svinjama. 17 Ljudi su tada počeli moliti Isusa da ode iz njihova kraja.
18 Dok je Isus ulazio u lađicu, čovjek, koji je bio opsjednut zlim duhovima, zamolio ga je da mu dopusti da pođe s njim.
19 No Isus mu nije dopustio, nego mu je rekao: »Idi kući svojima i ispričaj im što je Gospodin učinio za tebe. Reci im kako je bio milostiv prema tebi.«
20 Tako je čovjek otišao i počeo govoriti ljudima u području Dekapolisa što je Isus učinio za njega. Svi su bili zadivljeni.
Djevojčica i bolesna žena
(Mt 9,18-26; Lk 8,40-56)
21 Isus je ponovo prešao lađicom na drugu stranu jezera. Oko njega se okupilo silno mnoštvo, a on je ostao pokraj jezera. 22 Onamo je došao Jair, jedan od nadstojnika sinagoge. Čim je spazio Isusa, pao mu je pred noge. 23 Počeo je uporno moliti Isusa riječima: »Moja kći umire. Molim te, dođi i položi svoje ruke na nju da ozdravi i poživi.«
24 Isus je pošao za njim, a mnoštvo ga je slijedilo tiskajući se oko njega.
25 Tamo je bila i žena koja je krvarila već dvanaest godina. 26 Mnogo je propatila obilazeći brojne liječnike. Potrošila je sve što je imala, ali nije joj bilo ništa bolje. Naprotiv, bilo joj je još i gore. 27 Žena je čula za Isusa i slijedila ga. Pristupila mu je odostraga, kroz gomilu, i dotaknula rub njegovog ogrtača. 28 Govorila je u sebi: »Ako samo uspijem dotaknuti rub njegovog ogrtača, ozdravit ću.« 29 I krvarenje je odmah prestalo. Osjetila je da je izliječena od bolesti od koje je patila. 30 Isus je odmah osjetio da je sila izašla iz njega. Okrenuo se prema mnoštvu i upitao: »Tko mi je dotaknuo odjeću?«
31 Učenici su mu odgovorili: »Vidiš da se ljudi guraju oko tebe, a ti pitaš: ‘Tko me dotaknuo?’«
32 No Isus je nastavio tražiti pogledom onoga tko je to učinio. 33 Kad je žena shvatila što joj se dogodilo, izašla je pred Isusa i poklonila mu se. Tresući se od straha, ispričala mu je cijelu istinu. 34 Isus joj je na to rekao: »Kćeri, tvoja te vjera ozdravila. Idi u miru i budi zdrava od svoje bolesti!«
35 Dok je on još govorio, stigli su neki ljudi iz kuće nadstojnika sinagoge i rekli: »Kći ti je umrla. Ima li svrhe dalje gnjaviti učitelja?«
36 No Isus se nije obazirao na njihove riječi, nego je rekao nadstojniku sinagoge: »Ne boj se, samo vjeruj!«
37 I nije dopustio nikome da ga prati, osim Petru, Jakovu i Ivanu—Jakovljevom bratu. 38 Otišli su u kuću nadstojnika sinagoge. Kad su stigli, Isus je ugledao zbrku i ljude kako plaču i nariču. 39 Ušao je i rekao: »Čemu sva ta uznemirenost i plač? Dijete nije mrtvo; samo spava.« 40 Svi su ga ismijavali, a on ih je sve poslao van pa je samo djetetovog oca i majku te trojicu učenika poveo u sobu k djevojčici. 41 Zatim je uzeo njezinu ruku i rekao joj: »Talita kum!«—što znači: »Djevojčice, kažem ti da ustaneš!« 42 Djevojčica je istoga trenutka ustala i počela hodati. Bilo joj je dvanaest godina. Svi su ostali zaprepašteni, 43 a Isus je roditeljima strogo zapovjedio da nikome o tome ne govore i da joj daju jesti.

Mark 5
New International Version
Jesus Restores a Demon-Possessed Man(A)(B)
5 They went across the lake to the region of the Gerasenes.[a] 2 When Jesus got out of the boat,(C) a man with an impure spirit(D) came from the tombs to meet him. 3 This man lived in the tombs, and no one could bind him anymore, not even with a chain. 4 For he had often been chained hand and foot, but he tore the chains apart and broke the irons on his feet. No one was strong enough to subdue him. 5 Night and day among the tombs and in the hills he would cry out and cut himself with stones.
6 When he saw Jesus from a distance, he ran and fell on his knees in front of him. 7 He shouted at the top of his voice, “What do you want with me,(E) Jesus, Son of the Most High God?(F) In God’s name don’t torture me!” 8 For Jesus had said to him, “Come out of this man, you impure spirit!”
9 Then Jesus asked him, “What is your name?”
“My name is Legion,”(G) he replied, “for we are many.” 10 And he begged Jesus again and again not to send them out of the area.
11 A large herd of pigs was feeding on the nearby hillside. 12 The demons begged Jesus, “Send us among the pigs; allow us to go into them.” 13 He gave them permission, and the impure spirits came out and went into the pigs. The herd, about two thousand in number, rushed down the steep bank into the lake and were drowned.
14 Those tending the pigs ran off and reported this in the town and countryside, and the people went out to see what had happened. 15 When they came to Jesus, they saw the man who had been possessed by the legion(H) of demons,(I) sitting there, dressed and in his right mind; and they were afraid. 16 Those who had seen it told the people what had happened to the demon-possessed man—and told about the pigs as well. 17 Then the people began to plead with Jesus to leave their region.
18 As Jesus was getting into the boat, the man who had been demon-possessed begged to go with him. 19 Jesus did not let him, but said, “Go home to your own people and tell them(J) how much the Lord has done for you, and how he has had mercy on you.” 20 So the man went away and began to tell in the Decapolis[b](K) how much Jesus had done for him. And all the people were amazed.
Jesus Raises a Dead Girl and Heals a Sick Woman(L)
21 When Jesus had again crossed over by boat to the other side of the lake,(M) a large crowd gathered around him while he was by the lake.(N) 22 Then one of the synagogue leaders,(O) named Jairus, came, and when he saw Jesus, he fell at his feet. 23 He pleaded earnestly with him, “My little daughter is dying. Please come and put your hands on(P) her so that she will be healed and live.” 24 So Jesus went with him.
A large crowd followed and pressed around him. 25 And a woman was there who had been subject to bleeding(Q) for twelve years. 26 She had suffered a great deal under the care of many doctors and had spent all she had, yet instead of getting better she grew worse. 27 When she heard about Jesus, she came up behind him in the crowd and touched his cloak, 28 because she thought, “If I just touch his clothes,(R) I will be healed.” 29 Immediately her bleeding stopped and she felt in her body that she was freed from her suffering.(S)
30 At once Jesus realized that power(T) had gone out from him. He turned around in the crowd and asked, “Who touched my clothes?”
31 “You see the people crowding against you,” his disciples answered, “and yet you can ask, ‘Who touched me?’ ”
32 But Jesus kept looking around to see who had done it. 33 Then the woman, knowing what had happened to her, came and fell at his feet and, trembling with fear, told him the whole truth. 34 He said to her, “Daughter, your faith has healed you.(U) Go in peace(V) and be freed from your suffering.”
35 While Jesus was still speaking, some people came from the house of Jairus, the synagogue leader.(W) “Your daughter is dead,” they said. “Why bother the teacher anymore?”
36 Overhearing[c] what they said, Jesus told him, “Don’t be afraid; just believe.”
37 He did not let anyone follow him except Peter, James and John the brother of James.(X) 38 When they came to the home of the synagogue leader,(Y) Jesus saw a commotion, with people crying and wailing loudly. 39 He went in and said to them, “Why all this commotion and wailing? The child is not dead but asleep.”(Z) 40 But they laughed at him.
After he put them all out, he took the child’s father and mother and the disciples who were with him, and went in where the child was. 41 He took her by the hand(AA) and said to her, “Talitha koum!” (which means “Little girl, I say to you, get up!”).(AB) 42 Immediately the girl stood up and began to walk around (she was twelve years old). At this they were completely astonished. 43 He gave strict orders not to let anyone know about this,(AC) and told them to give her something to eat.
Mark 5
King James Version
5 And they came over unto the other side of the sea, into the country of the Gadarenes.
2 And when he was come out of the ship, immediately there met him out of the tombs a man with an unclean spirit,
3 Who had his dwelling among the tombs; and no man could bind him, no, not with chains:
4 Because that he had been often bound with fetters and chains, and the chains had been plucked asunder by him, and the fetters broken in pieces: neither could any man tame him.
5 And always, night and day, he was in the mountains, and in the tombs, crying, and cutting himself with stones.
6 But when he saw Jesus afar off, he ran and worshipped him,
7 And cried with a loud voice, and said, What have I to do with thee, Jesus, thou Son of the most high God? I adjure thee by God, that thou torment me not.
8 For he said unto him, Come out of the man, thou unclean spirit.
9 And he asked him, What is thy name? And he answered, saying, My name is Legion: for we are many.
10 And he besought him much that he would not send them away out of the country.
11 Now there was there nigh unto the mountains a great herd of swine feeding.
12 And all the devils besought him, saying, Send us into the swine, that we may enter into them.
13 And forthwith Jesus gave them leave. And the unclean spirits went out, and entered into the swine: and the herd ran violently down a steep place into the sea, (they were about two thousand;) and were choked in the sea.
14 And they that fed the swine fled, and told it in the city, and in the country. And they went out to see what it was that was done.
15 And they come to Jesus, and see him that was possessed with the devil, and had the legion, sitting, and clothed, and in his right mind: and they were afraid.
16 And they that saw it told them how it befell to him that was possessed with the devil, and also concerning the swine.
17 And they began to pray him to depart out of their coasts.
18 And when he was come into the ship, he that had been possessed with the devil prayed him that he might be with him.
19 Howbeit Jesus suffered him not, but saith unto him, Go home to thy friends, and tell them how great things the Lord hath done for thee, and hath had compassion on thee.
20 And he departed, and began to publish in Decapolis how great things Jesus had done for him: and all men did marvel.
21 And when Jesus was passed over again by ship unto the other side, much people gathered unto him: and he was nigh unto the sea.
22 And, behold, there cometh one of the rulers of the synagogue, Jairus by name; and when he saw him, he fell at his feet,
23 And besought him greatly, saying, My little daughter lieth at the point of death: I pray thee, come and lay thy hands on her, that she may be healed; and she shall live.
24 And Jesus went with him; and much people followed him, and thronged him.
25 And a certain woman, which had an issue of blood twelve years,
26 And had suffered many things of many physicians, and had spent all that she had, and was nothing bettered, but rather grew worse,
27 When she had heard of Jesus, came in the press behind, and touched his garment.
28 For she said, If I may touch but his clothes, I shall be whole.
29 And straightway the fountain of her blood was dried up; and she felt in her body that she was healed of that plague.
30 And Jesus, immediately knowing in himself that virtue had gone out of him, turned him about in the press, and said, Who touched my clothes?
31 And his disciples said unto him, Thou seest the multitude thronging thee, and sayest thou, Who touched me?
32 And he looked round about to see her that had done this thing.
33 But the woman fearing and trembling, knowing what was done in her, came and fell down before him, and told him all the truth.
34 And he said unto her, Daughter, thy faith hath made thee whole; go in peace, and be whole of thy plague.
35 While he yet spake, there came from the ruler of the synagogue's house certain which said, Thy daughter is dead: why troublest thou the Master any further?
36 As soon as Jesus heard the word that was spoken, he saith unto the ruler of the synagogue, Be not afraid, only believe.
37 And he suffered no man to follow him, save Peter, and James, and John the brother of James.
38 And he cometh to the house of the ruler of the synagogue, and seeth the tumult, and them that wept and wailed greatly.
39 And when he was come in, he saith unto them, Why make ye this ado, and weep? the damsel is not dead, but sleepeth.
40 And they laughed him to scorn. But when he had put them all out, he taketh the father and the mother of the damsel, and them that were with him, and entereth in where the damsel was lying.
41 And he took the damsel by the hand, and said unto her, Talitha cumi; which is, being interpreted, Damsel, I say unto thee, arise.
42 And straightway the damsel arose, and walked; for she was of the age of twelve years. And they were astonished with a great astonishment.
43 And he charged them straitly that no man should know it; and commanded that something should be given her to eat.
