¹Vakasvika mhiri kwegungwa, kunyika yevaGadharini.

¹And they came to the other side of the sea, into the country of the Gerasenes.

²Zvino wakati abuda muchikepe, pakarepo munhu akamuchingamidza achibva kumarinda ane mweya wetsvina,

²And when he was come out of the boat, straightway there met him out of the tombs a man with an unclean spirit,

³uyo wakange ane ugaro kumarinda, uye kwakange kusina munhu wakange achigona kumusunga kunyange nemaketani,

³who had his dwelling in the tombs: and no man could any more bind him, no, not with a chain;

⁴nekuti kazhinji waisungwa nezvisungo zvemakumbo nemaketani, asi maketani aigurwa nepakati naye, nezvisungo zvemakumbo zvaigurwa kuita zvidimbu; uye kwakange kusina waigona kumupingudza.

⁴because that he had been often bound with fetters and chains, and the chains had been rent asunder by him, and the fetters broken in pieces: and no man had strength to tame him.

⁵Zvino nguva dzose, usiku nemasikati, waiva mumakomo nekumarinda achidanidzira, achizvicheka nemabwe.

⁵And always, night and day, in the tombs and in the mountains, he was crying out, and cutting himself with stones.

⁶Zvino wakati achiona Jesu ari kure, akamhanya ndokumunamata;

⁶And when he saw Jesus from afar, he ran and worshipped him;

⁷akadanidzira nenzwi guru akati: Ndinei nemwi Jesu, Mwanakomana waMwari Wekumusoro-soro? Ndinokupikirai naMwari, murege kundirwadzisa.

⁷and crying out with a loud voice, he saith, What have I to do with thee, Jesus, thou Son of the Most High God? I adjure thee by God, torment me not.

⁸Nekuti wakati kwaari: Buda mumunhu, mweya wetsvina.

⁸For he said unto him, Come forth, thou unclean spirit, out of the man.

⁹Ndokumubvunza akati: Zita rako ndiani? Akapindura achiti: Zita rangu rinonzi Regiyoni, nekuti tiri vazhinji.

⁹And he asked him, What is thy name? And he saith unto him, My name is Legion; for we are many.

¹⁰Vakamukumbirisa zvikuru kuti arege kuvaendesa kunze kwenyika.

¹⁰And he besought him much that he would not send them away out of the country.

¹¹Zvino kwakange kuripo pedo nemakomo boka guru renguruve dzichifura.

¹¹Now there was there on the mountain side a great herd of swine feeding.

¹²Nemadhimoni ose akamukumbira zvikuru achiti: Titumirei kunguruve kuti tindopinda madziri.

¹²And they besought him, saying, Send us into the swine, that we may enter into them.

¹³Pakarepo Jesu akaatendera. Mweya yetsvina ikabuda ikapinda munguruve; boka rikapitirikira kumawere kuenda kugungwa, dzinenge dzaiva zvuru zviviri, dzikabitirirwa mugungwa.

¹³And he gave them leave. And the unclean spirits came out, and entered into the swine: and the herd rushed down the steep into the sea, [in number] about two thousand; and they were drowned in the sea.

¹⁴Avo vaifudza nguruve ndokutiza, vakanoreva muguta neparuwa. Vakabuda kuzoona kuti chii chainge chaitwa.

¹⁴And they that fed them fled, and told it in the city, and in the country. And they came to see what it was that had come to pass.

¹⁵Vakasvika kuna Jesu, vakaona uyo wakange ane madhimoni, iye waiva neRegiyoni agere, akapfeka ari munhu kwaye; vakatya.

¹⁵And they come to Jesus, and behold him that was possessed with demons sitting, clothed and in his right mind, [even] him that had the legion: and they were afraid.

¹⁶Vaya vakange vazviona, vakavarondedzera kuti zvakaitika sei kune wakange ane madhimoni nepamusoro penguruve.

¹⁶And they that saw it declared unto them how it befell him that was possessed with demons, and concerning the swine.

¹⁷Vakatanga kumukumbirisa kuti abve mudunhu mavo.

¹⁷And they began to beseech him to depart from their borders.

¹⁸Zvino wakati achipinda muchikepe, iye waiva nemadhimoni akamukumbirisa kuti ave naye.

¹⁸And as he was entering into the boat, he that had been possessed with demons besought him that he might be with him.

¹⁹Asi Jesu haana kumutendera, asi wakati kwaari: Enda kumba kwako, kune vekwako, undovaudza kuti zvikuru sei Ishe zvaakuitira, nekukuitira tsitsi.

¹⁹And he suffered him not, but saith unto him, Go to thy house unto thy friends, and tell them how great things the Lord hath done for thee, and [how] he had mercy on thee.

²⁰Akabva ndokuenda akatanga kuparidza muDhekapori kukura kwezvinhu Jesu zvaakamuitira; vose vakashamisika.

²⁰And he went his way, and began to publish in Decapolis how great things Jesus had done for him: and all men marvelled.

²¹Jesu wakati ayambukazve nechikepe kune rimwe divi, chaunga chikuru chikaunganira kwaari, uye wakange ava pedo negungwa.

²¹And when Jesus had crossed over again in the boat unto the other side, a great multitude was gathered unto him; and he was by the sea.

²²Zvino tarira, kwakasvika umwe wevakuru vesinagoge, wainzi Jairosi; zvino wakati amuona, akawira patsoka dzake.

²²And there cometh one of the rulers of the synagogue, Jairus by name; and seeing him, he falleth at his feet,

²³Akamukumbirisa zvikuru achiti: Mukunda wangu muduku wotandadza, uyai muise maoko pamusoro pake kuti aponeswe uye uchararama.

²³and beseecheth him much, saying, My little daughter is at the point of death: [I pray thee], that thou come and lay thy hands on her, that she may be made whole, and live.

²⁴Akaenda naye; chaunga chikuru chikamutevera, chikamutsimbirira.

²⁴And he went with him; and a great multitude followed him, and they thronged him.

²⁵Zvino umwe mukadzi waiva nekubuda ropa makore gumi nemaviri,

²⁵And a woman, who had an issue of blood twelve years,

²⁶wakange atambura zvikuru kuvarapi vazhinji, wakange apedza zvose zvaakange anazvo, asina kutongobatsirika, asi pachinhambo cheizvi ainyanyisa,

²⁶and had suffered many things of many physicians, and had spent all that she had, and was nothing bettered, but rather grew worse,

²⁷wakati anzwa zvaJesu, akauya nepakati pechaunga neshure, akabata nguvo yake.

²⁷having heard the things concerning Jesus, came in the crowd behind, and touched his garment.

²⁸Nekuti wakati: Kana ndikabata nguvo dzake chete, ndichaponeswa.

²⁸For she said, If I touch but his garments, I shall be made whole.

²⁹Zvino pakarepo chitubu cheropa rake chikapwa, akanzwa mumuviri kuti waporeswa pachifo.

²⁹And straightway the fountain of her blood was dried up; and she felt in her body that she was healed of her plague.

³⁰Zvino pakarepo Jesu achiziva mukati make kuti simba rabuda maari, akatendeuka pachaunga akati: Ndiani wabata nguvo dzangu?

³⁰And straightway Jesus, perceiving in himself that the power [proceeding] from him had gone forth, turned him about in the crowd, and said, Who touched my garments?

³¹Vadzidzi vake vakati kwaari: Munoona chaunga chinokutsimbirirai, zvino moti: Ndiani wandibata?

³¹And his disciples said unto him, Thou seest the multitude thronging thee, and sayest thou, Who touched me?

³²Zvino wakaringa-ringa kuona uyo wakange aita ichi.

³²And he looked round about to see her that had done this thing.

³³Asi mukadzi achitya, nekubvunda, achiziva zvakange zvaitika maari, akauya ndokuwira pamberi pake, ndokumuudza chokwadi chose.

³³But the woman fearing and trembling, knowing what had been done to her, came and fell down before him, and told him all the truth.

³⁴Ndokuti kwaari: Mukunda, rutendo rwako rwakuponesa, enda norugare, poreswa pachifo chako.

³⁴And he said unto her, Daughter, thy faith hath made thee whole; go in peace, and be whole of thy plague.

³⁵Wakati achataura, kwakasvika vamwe vemukuru wesinagoge vakati: Mukunda wenyu wafa, muchiri kutambudzirei mudzidzisi?

³⁵While he yet spake, they come from the ruler of the synagogue's [house] saying, Thy daughter is dead: why troublest thou the Teacher any further?

³⁶Pakarepo Jesu achinzwa shoko rakataurwa akati kumukuru wesinagoge: Usatya, tenda chete.

³⁶But Jesus, not heeding the word spoken, saith unto the ruler of the synagogue, Fear not, only believe.

³⁷Akasatendera munhu kumutevera, kunze kwaPetro naJakobho naJohwani munin'ina waJakobho.

³⁷And he suffered no man to follow with him, save Peter, and James, and John the brother of James.

³⁸Vakasvika mumba memukuru wesinagoge, akaona mhere-mhere nevaichema nekurira zvikuru.

³⁸And they come to the house of the ruler of the synagogue; and he beholdeth a tumult, and [many] weeping and wailing greatly.

³⁹Zvino wakati apinda akati kwavari: Munoitirei mhere-mhere muchichema? Mucheche haana kufa, asi uvete.

³⁹And when he was entered in, he saith unto them, Why make ye a tumult, and weep? the child is not dead, but sleepeth.

⁴⁰Vakamuseka vachimumhura. Asi iye wakati avabudisa vose panze, akatora baba vemucheche namai nevakange vanaye, akapinda makange muvete mucheche.

⁴⁰And they laughed him to scorn. But he, having put them all forth, taketh the father of the child and her mother and them that were with him, and goeth in where the child was.

⁴¹Akabata ruoko rwemucheche, akati kwaari: "Tarita kumi;" ndokuti kana zvichishandurwa: Musikana muduku, ndinoti kwauri, muka.

⁴¹And taking the child by the hand, he saith unto her, Talitha cumi; which is, being interpreted, Damsel, I say unto thee, Arise.

⁴²Pakarepo musikana wakasimuka, akafamba, nekuti waiva wemakore gumi nemaviri; vakashamisika nekushamisika kukuru.

⁴²And straightway the damsel rose up, and walked; for she was twelve years old. And they were amazed straightway with a great amazement.

⁴³Akavaraira zvikuru kuti kusava nemunhu unoziva izvi; akati apiwe chikafu.

⁴³And he charged them much that no man should know this: and he commanded that [something] should be given her to eat.
