Marcos 5
Nova Versão Internacional
A Cura de um Endemoninhado(A)
5 Eles atravessaram o mar e foram para a região dos gerasenos[a]. 2 Quando Jesus desembarcou, um homem com um espírito imundo veio dos sepulcros ao seu encontro. 3 Esse homem vivia nos sepulcros, e ninguém conseguia prendê-lo, nem mesmo com correntes; 4 pois muitas vezes lhe haviam sido acorrentados pés e mãos, mas ele arrebentara as correntes e quebrara os ferros de seus pés. Ninguém era suficientemente forte para dominá-lo. 5 Noite e dia ele andava gritando e cortando-se com pedras entre os sepulcros e nas colinas.
6 Quando ele viu Jesus de longe, correu e prostrou-se diante dele, 7 e gritou em alta voz: “Que queres comigo, Jesus, Filho do Deus Altíssimo? Rogo-te por Deus que não me atormentes!” 8 Pois Jesus lhe tinha dito: “Saia deste homem, espírito imundo!”
9 Então Jesus lhe perguntou: “Qual é o seu nome?”
“Meu nome é Legião”, respondeu ele, “porque somos muitos.” 10 E implorava a Jesus, com insistência, que não os mandasse sair daquela região.
11 Uma grande manada de porcos estava pastando numa colina próxima. 12 Os demônios imploraram a Jesus: “Manda-nos para os porcos, para que entremos neles”. 13 Ele lhes deu permissão, e os espíritos imundos saíram e entraram nos porcos. A manada de cerca de dois mil porcos atirou-se precipício abaixo, em direção ao mar, e nele se afogou.
14 Os que cuidavam dos porcos fugiram e contaram esses fatos na cidade e nos campos, e o povo foi ver o que havia acontecido. 15 Quando se aproximaram de Jesus, viram ali o homem que fora possesso da legião de demônios, assentado, vestido e em perfeito juízo; e ficaram com medo. 16 Os que estavam presentes contaram ao povo o que acontecera ao endemoninhado, e falaram também sobre os porcos. 17 Então o povo começou a suplicar a Jesus que saísse do território deles.
18 Quando Jesus estava entrando no barco, o homem que estivera endemoninhado suplicava-lhe que o deixasse ir com ele. 19 Jesus não o permitiu, mas disse: “Vá para casa, para a sua família e anuncie-lhes quanto o Senhor fez por você e como teve misericórdia de você”. 20 Então, aquele homem se foi e começou a anunciar em Decápolis o quanto Jesus tinha feito por ele. Todos ficavam admirados.
O Poder de Jesus sobre a Doença e a Morte(B)
21 Tendo Jesus voltado de barco para a outra margem, uma grande multidão se reuniu ao seu redor, enquanto ele estava à beira do mar. 22 Então chegou ali um dos dirigentes da sinagoga, chamado Jairo. Vendo Jesus, prostrou-se aos seus pés 23 e lhe implorou insistentemente: “Minha filhinha está morrendo! Vem, por favor, e impõe as mãos sobre ela, para que seja curada e que viva”. 24 Jesus foi com ele.
Uma grande multidão o seguia e o comprimia. 25 E estava ali certa mulher que havia doze anos vinha sofrendo de hemorragia. 26 Ela padecera muito sob o cuidado de vários médicos e gastara tudo o que tinha, mas, em vez de melhorar, piorava. 27 Quando ouviu falar de Jesus, chegou por trás dele, no meio da multidão, e tocou em seu manto, 28 porque pensava: “Se eu tão-somente tocar em seu manto, ficarei curada”. 29 Imediatamente cessou sua hemorragia e ela sentiu em seu corpo que estava livre do seu sofrimento.
30 No mesmo instante, Jesus percebeu que dele havia saído poder, virou-se para a multidão e perguntou: “Quem tocou em meu manto?”
31 Responderam os seus discípulos: “Vês a multidão aglomerada ao teu redor e ainda perguntas: ‘Quem tocou em mim?’”
32 Mas Jesus continuou olhando ao seu redor para ver quem tinha feito aquilo. 33 Então a mulher, sabendo o que lhe tinha acontecido, aproximou-se, prostrou-se aos seus pés e, tremendo de medo, contou-lhe toda a verdade. 34 Então ele lhe disse: “Filha, a sua fé a curou![b] Vá em paz e fique livre do seu sofrimento”.
35 Enquanto Jesus ainda estava falando, chegaram algumas pessoas da casa de Jairo, o dirigente da sinagoga. “Sua filha morreu”, disseram eles. “Não precisa mais incomodar o mestre!”
36 Não fazendo caso do que eles disseram, Jesus disse ao dirigente da sinagoga: “Não tenha medo; tão-somente creia”.
37 E não deixou ninguém segui-lo, senão Pedro, Tiago e João, irmão de Tiago. 38 Quando chegaram à casa do dirigente da sinagoga, Jesus viu um alvoroço, com gente chorando e se lamentando em alta voz. 39 Então entrou e lhes disse: “Por que todo este alvoroço e lamento? A criança não está morta, mas dorme”. 40 Mas todos começaram a rir de Jesus. Ele, porém, ordenou que eles saíssem, tomou consigo o pai e a mãe da criança e os discípulos que estavam com ele, e entrou onde se encontrava a criança. 41 Tomou-a pela mão e lhe disse: “Talita cumi!”, que significa “menina, eu lhe ordeno, levante-se!”. 42 Imediatamente a menina, que tinha doze anos de idade, levantou-se e começou a andar. Isso os deixou atônitos. 43 Ele deu ordens expressas para que não dissessem nada a ninguém e mandou que dessem a ela alguma coisa para comer.
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.'
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.
