Mark 5:11-20. ἦν δὲ ἐκεῖ πρὸς τῷ ὄρει ἀγέλη χοίρων
μεγάλη βοσκομένη: καὶ παρεκάλεσαν αὐτὸν λέγοντες, πέμψον ἡμᾶς εἰς τοὺς
χοίρους, ἵνα εἰς αὐτοὺς εἰσέλθωμεν. καὶ ἐπέτρεψεν αὐτοῖς. καὶ ἐξελθόντα
τὰ πνεύματα τὰ ἀκάθαρτα εἰσῆλθον εἰς τοὺς χοίρους, καὶ ὥρμησεν ἡ ἀγέλη
κατὰ τοῦ κρημνοῦ εἰς τὴν θάλασσαν, ὡς δισχίλιοι, καὶ ἐπνίγοντο ἐν τῇ
θαλάσσῃ. καὶ οἱ βόσκοντες αὐτοὺς ἔφυγον καὶ ἀπήγγειλαν εἰς τὴν πόλιν
καὶ εἰς τοὺς ἀγρούς: καὶ ἦλθον ἰδεῖν τί ἐστιν τὸ γεγονός. καὶ ἔρχονται
πρὸς τὸν ἰησοῦν, καὶ θεωροῦσιν τὸν δαιμονιζόμενον καθήμενον ἱματισμένον
καὶ σωφρονοῦντα, τὸν ἐσχηκότα τὸν λεγιῶνα, καὶ ἐφοβήθησαν. καὶ διηγήσαντο
αὐτοῖς οἱ ἰδόντες πῶς ἐγένετο τῷ δαιμονιζομένῳ καὶ περὶ τῶν χοίρων. καὶ
ἤρξαντο παρακαλεῖν αὐτὸν ἀπελθεῖν ἀπὸ τῶν ὁρίων αὐτῶν. καὶ ἐμβαίνοντος
αὐτοῦ εἰς τὸ πλοῖον παρεκάλει αὐτὸν ὁ δαιμονισθεὶς ἵνα μετ' αὐτοῦ ᾖ.
καὶ οὐκ ἀφῆκεν αὐτόν, ἀλλὰ λέγει αὐτῷ, ὕπαγε εἰς τὸν οἶκόν σου πρὸς τοὺς
σούς, καὶ ἀπάγγειλον αὐτοῖς ὅσα ὁ κύριός σοι πεποίηκεν καὶ ἠλέησέν σε.
καὶ ἀπῆλθεν καὶ ἤρξατο κηρύσσειν ἐν τῇ δεκαπόλει ὅσα ἐποίησεν αὐτῷ ὁ
ἰησοῦς, καὶ πάντες ἐθαύμαζον. |
Mark 5:11-20. Now there was there nigh unto the mountains a great herd
of swine feeding. And all the devils besought him, saying, Send us into
the swine, that we may enter into them. 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. 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. 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. And they that saw it told them how it befell to him
that was possessed with the devil, and also concerning the swine. And they
began to pray him to depart out of their coasts. And when he was come into
the ship, he that had been possessed with the devil prayed him that he
might be with him. 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. And he departed, and began to
publish in Decapolis how great things Jesus had done for him: and all men
did marvel. |
