(A)Jesus withdrew to the sea with His disciples; and (B)a large multitude from Galilee followed, and also from Judea, and from Jerusalem, and from (C)Idumea, and beyond the Jordan, and the vicinity of (D)Tyre and Sidon, a great number of people heard about everything that He was doing and came to Him. (E)And He told His disciples to see that a boat would be ready for Him because of the [a]masses, so that they would not crowd Him; 10 for He had (F)healed many, with the result that all those who had (G)diseases pushed in around Him in order to (H)touch Him. 11 And whenever the unclean spirits saw Him, they would fall down before Him and shout, “You are (I)the Son of God!” 12 And He (J)strongly warned them not to [b]reveal who He was.

Jesus Heals Crowds by the Sea

And Jesus went away with his disciples to the sea,[a] and a great crowd from Galilee followed him.[b] And from Judea and from Jerusalem and from Idumea and the other side of the Jordan and around Tyre and Sidon a great crowd came to him because they[c] heard all that he was doing. And he told his disciples that a small boat should stand ready for him because of the crowd, so that they would not press upon him. 10 For he had healed many, so that all those who were suffering from diseases[d] pressed about him in order that they could touch him. 11 And the unclean spirits, whenever they saw him, were falling down before him and crying out, saying, “You are the Son of God!” 12 And he warned them strictly that they should not make him known.
