2Igiel bho̠ i̠na a̠sor d̠a̠ oghugh bho̠, sa̠ odi o̠ni̠ ola̠ o̠karabh e̠mu̠gh na̠ aro̠ d̠a̠ ozu bho̠ a̠bia̠, ad̠u̠a d̠a̠ o̠karabh esi bho̠ ra̠ ami̠nana i̠na.As soon as Jesus got out of the boat, He was met by a man with an unclean spirit, who was coming from the tombs.

3O̠ni̠ bho̠ a̠rugh d̠a̠ o̠karabh esi, ya̠a̠ bebina̠ o̠ni̠ ola̠ a̠rue ma̠ o̠bhad̠i̠ o̠yo̠ na̠ o̠ro̠ d̠o̠, ubhin eka̠ ma̠ i̠go̠ro̠go̠ro̠ o̠bhad̠i̠ i̠na isibhom d̠o̠ eguri ma̠ onin esi nyen.This man had been living in the tombs and could no longer be restrained, even with chains.

4A̠d̠izo igiel, ubhin gha̠n i̠go̠ro̠go̠ro̠ na̠ ikoli o̠du̠o̠m i̠na d̠a̠ aru̠gu̠o̠ na̠ a̠sike oguri ma̠ esi, ya̠a̠ i̠na a̠gbugbo gha̠n i̠go̠ro̠go̠ro̠ na̠ ikoli ya̠ ubhin u̠du̠o̠m i̠na bho̠, sa̠ a̠nwinigi gha̠n ikpo a̠rukurogh ya̠ ubhin u̠du̠o̠m a̠sike d̠o̠yo̠ bho̠ nyen. Sa̠, o̠ni̠ ola̠ a̠nwuna̠ ma̠ igba̠ ya̠ obhin osibh o̠yo̠ oguri onin esi na̠ o̠ro̠ d̠o̠.Though he was often bound with chains and shackles, he had broken the chains and shattered the shackles. Now there was no one with the strength to subdue him.

5A̠d̠uga̠la̠n na̠ etita̠n a̠d̠io i̠na na̠ aro̠ d̠a̠ o̠karabh esi na̠ d̠a̠ ranyu̠ od̠i na̠ d̠a̠ a̠rugugum, na̠ a̠mulughu na̠ a̠bhin i̠pad̠i̠ i̠gbaki̠ghe̠ na̠ a̠guyogh ozu d̠o̠yo̠.Night and day in the tombs and in the mountains he kept crying out and cutting himself with stones.

6Ya̠a̠, igiel bho̠ i̠na abi̠gh A̠zizo̠s ma̠ esi egbeiny bho̠, sa̠ i̠na a̠ghil ka̠ a̠mel a̠kpud̠ia̠n a̠nigha̠ i̠na.When the man saw Jesus from a distance, he ran and fell on his knees before Him.

7Sa̠ a̠bhin obom okoroko a̠mulughu a̠fugh ma̠a̠, “Anwa na̠ ami̠ ka̠ odi a̠nwuna̠ ma̠ ere a̠gboloma̠ ma̠ odi? A̠zizo̠s, O̠nyi̠ ta̠ A̠zib̠a̠ Wagi̠manyu̠ A̠pu bho̠. Ami̠ na̠ a̠siseiny anwa d̠a̠ a̠d̠ien ta̠ A̠zib̠a̠, ko ogbikimeni ami̠!”And he shouted in a loud voice, “What do You want with me, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I beg You before God not to torture me!”

8Ezin bho̠ bha̠ A̠zizo̠s na̠ a̠fugh ma̠a̠, “O̠karabh e̠mu̠gh mite ma̠ ad̠u̠a d̠a̠ ozu o̠ni̠ onon.”For Jesus had already declared, “Come out of this man, you unclean spirit!”

9Sa̠ A̠zizo̠s a̠pura̠n i̠na ma̠a̠, “A̠d̠ien d̠oyom ka̠ ubhelegi eka̠?” Sa̠ i̠na awo̠ran ma̠a̠, “A̠d̠izo,” ezin bho̠ i̠yar a̠b̠utu.“What is your name?” Jesus asked. “My name is Legion,” he replied, “for we are many.”

10Sa̠ i̠na akparame̠ni̠ ale̠gh A̠zizo̠s ma̠ i̠na oze d̠o̠ awa asi̠ghe̠ d̠a̠ ebhugh obha̠.And he begged Jesus repeatedly not to send them out of that region.

11D̠a̠ obhel obha̠, obom o̠lo̠gh roporopo i̠ro̠ d̠a̠ eb̠ub̠um a̠de d̠a̠ aka esi bho̠, na̠ eb̠u na̠ ed̠e.There on the nearby hillside a large herd of pigs was feeding.

12Sa̠ i̠karabh aru̠mu̠gh bho̠ i̠le̠gh i̠na ma̠a̠, “Ruome i̠yar o̠gi̠ ka̠ od̠igh d̠a̠ a̠ruzu roporopo bho̠.”So the demons begged Jesus, “Send us to the pigs, so that we may enter them.”

13Sa̠ A̠zizo̠s a̠ma̠ra̠ a̠nigha̠ awa. Sa̠ i̠karabh aru̠mu̠gh bho̠ imite ka̠ id̠igh d̠a̠ roporopo bho̠. Roporopo bho̠ ta̠ elei agu̠o̠ o̠gho̠ o̠ni̠r (2,000), sa̠ eb̠la̠ awa i̠d̠u̠a d̠a̠ eb̠ub̠um a̠de bho̠ ighil isor d̠a̠ o̠bhi̠i̠y-eko bho̠, i̠bhu̠ghu̠d̠i̠an imugughu.He gave them permission, and the unclean spirits came out and went into the pigs, and the herd of about two thousand rushed down the steep bank into the sea and drowned in the water.

14Sa̠ ogbo ya̠ na̠ ekponom roporopo bho̠ ighil ka̠ i̠gba d̠a̠ ibom na̠ i̠gbara re̠ma bho̠, ma̠ i̠di̠ar ya̠ imite bho̠. Sa̠ a̠nwunom bho̠ imite iru ra̠ i̠bi̠gh i̠di̠ar ya̠ imite bho̠.Those tending the pigs ran off and reported this in the town and countryside, and the people went out to see what had happened.

15Igiel bho̠ awa iru d̠a̠ A̠zizo̠s bho̠, sa̠ i̠bi̠gh o̠ni̠ wa̠ i̠karabh aru̠mu̠gh i̠d̠u̠a d̠a̠ ozu bho̠ ka̠ od̠i ma̠ a̠dila̠de, na̠ a̠loghoma̠n ozu, a̠bura̠ ma̠ ibura̠, sa̠ a̠rugugu isibh awa.When they came to Jesus, they saw the man who had been possessed by the legion of demons sitting there, clothed and in his right mind; and they were afraid.

16Sa̠ ogbo ya̠ i̠bi̠gh i̠di̠ar ya̠ imite bho̠, i̠gba ma̠ a̠d̠ien agu̠o̠ o̠ni̠ wa̠ i̠karabh aru̠mu̠gh i̠ro̠ d̠a̠ ozu bho̠ a̠bhin a̠d̠um, sekina̠ iya̠ igboloma̠ ma̠ roporopo bho̠.Those who had seen it described what had happened to the demon-possessed man and also to the pigs.

17Sa̠ o̠lo̠gh a̠nwunom bho̠ i̠le̠gh A̠zizo̠s ma̠ i̠na ad̠u̠a d̠a̠ ebhugh d̠awa.And the people began to beg Jesus to leave their region.

18Agu̠o̠ A̠zizo̠s ad̠u̠a agi̠ ka̠ a̠d̠igh d̠a̠ oghugh bho̠, sa̠ o̠ni̠ wa̠ i̠karabh aru̠mu̠gh i̠ro̠ d̠a̠ ozu bho̠ a̠puru ma̠ A̠zizo̠s ma̠a̠, “Ma̠ra̠ ami̠ i̠tu̠o̠no̠m anwa.”As He was getting into the boat, the man who had been possessed by the demons begged to go with Him.

19Ya̠a̠, A̠zizo̠s na̠ oma̠ra̠ d̠o̠, ya̠a̠ awo̠ran i̠na ma̠a̠, “Mula̠ ma̠ agi̠ d̠a̠ otu d̠oyom, ma̠ ka̠ agba ma̠ a̠mutiom ibom i̠di̠ar ya̠ Wa̠nwuna̠ bho̠ na̠ a̠gir a̠nigha̠ nyam bho̠, na̠ okpon igbirigbir ya̠ i̠na a̠leriom anwa bho̠.”But Jesus would not allow him. “Go home to your own people,” He said, “and tell them how much the Lord has done for you, and what mercy He has shown you.”

20Sa̠ o̠ni̠ bho̠ a̠ten agi̠ ka̠ agba asasaragi̠ d̠a̠ eb̠la̠ ebhugh A̠d̠iobh Re̠ma bho̠, ma̠ ibom i̠di̠ar ya̠ A̠zizo̠s a̠gir a̠nigha̠ i̠na bho̠, sa̠ a̠d̠igh ilologia̠n ogbo ya̠ i̠mu̠gho̠n bho̠.So the man went away and began to proclaim throughout the Decapolis how much Jesus had done for him. And everyone was amazed.

21Sa̠ A̠zizo̠s a̠puta̠ a̠d̠igh d̠a̠ oghugh ab̠e̠i̠ d̠a̠ aku̠b̠o̠ bho̠, sa̠ obom o̠lo̠gh a̠nwunom ikokod̠ia̠n iru d̠o̠yo̠ d̠a̠ aka o̠bhi̠i̠y eko bho̠.When Jesus had again crossed by boat to the other side, a large crowd gathered around Him beside the sea.

22Sa̠ odi we̠mu̠ okponom ma̠ otu u̠gala A̠zu bho̠, ola̠ ubhelegi ma̠ Azari̠o̠s a̠ru ani̠ ma̠ i̠se̠. Igiel bho̠ i̠na abi̠gh A̠zizo̠s bho̠, sa̠ i̠na agi̠ ka̠ a̠kpud̠ia̠n d̠a̠ a̠sike d̠o̠yo̠,A synagogue leader named Jairus arrived, and seeing Jesus, he fell at His feet

23ale̠gh i̠na akparame̠ni̠ agba ma̠a̠, “O̠gbara o̠nyani̠ d̠ami̠ na̠ ra̠ omugh. Siseiny, tue ra̠ agbam agu̠o̠ d̠oyom d̠a̠ ozu d̠o̠yo̠ ma̠ a̠koko i̠na ma̠ a̠d̠umeni.”and pleaded with Him urgently, “My little daughter is near death. Please come and place Your hands on her, so that she will be healed and live.”

24Sa̠ A̠zizo̠s a̠d̠igh na̠ i̠na agi̠, sa̠ obom o̠lo̠gh a̠nwunom i̠tu̠o̠no̠m A̠zizo̠s iko i̠na ikiton.So Jesus went with him, and a large crowd followed and pressed around Him.

25Odi ani̠ ola̠ asi̠ na̠ e̠gbo̠ d̠a̠ ozu bho̠ ma̠ a̠d̠iobh na̠ i̠wal (12) ala aro̠ ma̠ i̠se̠.And a woman was there who had suffered from bleeding for twelve years.

26I̠na na̠ a̠gbika̠ ma̠ ibom d̠a̠ aru̠gu̠o̠ a̠d̠izo a̠riwil, a̠robh eb̠la̠ ikpoki d̠o̠yo̠ ma̠ okokua̠n, ya̠a̠ esi bho̠ aro̠ ku ma̠ opu opu.She had borne much agony under the care of many physicians and had spent all she had, but to no avail. Instead, her condition had only grown worse.

27Igiel bho̠ i̠na amu̠gho̠n iya̠ igboloma̠ ma̠ A̠zizo̠s bho̠, sa̠ i̠na a̠kukurugha̠n d̠a̠ o̠lo̠gh bho̠, awo̠l d̠a̠ aman ta̠ A̠zizo̠s ka̠ a̠kula̠n ibura̠ d̠o̠yo̠.When the woman heard about Jesus, she came up through the crowd behind Him and touched His cloak.

28Ezin bho̠, i̠na a̠ma̠ra̠ d̠a̠ ologi d̠o̠yo̠ ma̠a̠, “Ku̠gba ma̠ ami̠ ta̠ a̠rue a̠kula̠n ibura̠ d̠o̠yo̠ ku̠ku̠m eka̠, bha̠ ami̠ od̠um.”For she kept saying, “If only I touch His garments, I will be healed.”

29D̠a̠ onin obhel bho̠, sa̠ asi̠ ya̠ na̠ e̠gbo̠ bho̠ isobha̠n, sa̠ i̠na a̠loghoma̠n ma̠a̠ i̠na na̠ a̠d̠um d̠a̠ asu̠nwe̠r bho̠.Immediately her bleeding stopped, and she sensed in her body that she was healed of her affliction.

30Sa̠ A̠zizo̠s a̠loghoma̠n ma̠a̠ a̠limon na̠ e̠d̠u̠a d̠a̠ ozu d̠o̠yo̠. Ebula̠ o̠ku̠a, sa̠ i̠na a̠tiba̠ra̠ adama ma̠ o̠lo̠gh bho̠ a̠pura̠n ma̠a̠, “A̠nyen a̠kula̠n ibura̠ d̠ami̠?”At once Jesus was aware that power had gone out from Him. Turning to the crowd, He asked, “Who touched My garments?”

31Sa̠ ogbo atu̠ghan d̠o̠yo̠ i̠wo̠ran i̠na ma̠a̠, “Anwa na̠ abi̠gh agu̠o̠ o̠lo̠gh a̠nwunom na̠ e̠ni̠ran eko nyam ekiton, sa̠ anwa na̠ a̠pura̠n ma̠a̠, ‘A̠nyen a̠kula̠n ami̠?’”His disciples answered, “You can see the crowd pressing in on You, and yet You ask, ‘Who touched Me?’”

32Ya̠a̠, A̠zizo̠s a̠kpon d̠a̠ o̠lo̠gh bho̠ a̠kitineni ma̠ o̠bi̠gh o̠ni̠ wa̠ a̠kula̠n i̠na bho̠.But He kept looking around to see who had done this.

33Igiel bho̠ ani̠ bho̠ a̠loghoma̠n abar wa̠ na̠ a̠mutuma̠ i̠na bho̠, sa̠ i̠na a̠bhin d̠a̠ a̠rugugu, a̠bhin igiri a̠ru ra̠ a̠kpud̠ia̠n d̠a̠ a̠misigh d̠o̠yo̠, sa̠ a̠bhin ya̠gia̠ga̠i agba ma̠ eb̠la̠ agu̠o̠ abar bho̠ a̠mite a̠nigha̠ i̠na.Then the woman, knowing what had happened to her, came and fell down before Him trembling in fear, and she told Him the whole truth.

34Sa̠ A̠zizo̠s agba a̠nigha̠ i̠na ma̠a̠, “O̠nyani̠ bho̠, ologi ima̠ra̠ d̠oyom na̠ a̠koko nyam. Gi̠e̠ na̠ ekima̠ ma̠ a̠miza̠n d̠a̠ egbika̠ d̠oyom.”“Daughter,” said Jesus, “your faith has healed you. Go in peace and be free of your affliction.”

Ko onyegi mu ma̠ o̠ni̠ a̠tu̠ghu̠me̠ni̠ bho̠.”While He was still speaking, messengers from the house of Jairus arrived and said, “Your daughter is dead; why bother the Teacher anymore?”

36Ya̠a̠ A̠zizo̠s a̠bhogia̠n asu̠gbagba d̠awa, sa̠ agba a̠nigha̠ ma̠ we̠mu̠ u̠gala A̠zu bho̠ ma̠a̠, “Ko oghil a̠rugugu, ma̠ra̠ ka̠ a̠ma̠ra̠.”But Jesus overheard their conversation and said to Jairus, “Do not be afraid; just believe.”

37I̠na na̠ oma̠ra̠ d̠o̠ ma̠ opa̠n o̠ni̠ ma̠ o̠tu̠o̠no̠m o̠yo̠, a̠ten A̠puta̠, na̠ A̠zemsi na̠ Azo̠n umor ta̠ A̠zemsi.And He did not allow anyone to accompany Him except Peter, James, and John the brother of James.

38Igiel bho̠ awa i̠gi̠ ka̠ i̠te̠i̠ d̠a̠ otu ta̠ we̠mu̠ otu u̠gala A̠zu bho̠, sa̠ A̠zizo̠s abi̠gh ka̠ a̠nwunom od̠i d̠a̠ asu̠su̠ghu̠d̠i̠an, sa̠ na̠ emulughu na̠ eleghe na̠ e̠gba ma̠ igbir.When they arrived at the house of the synagogue leader, Jesus saw the commotion and the people weeping and wailing loudly.

39Sa̠ A̠zizo̠s a̠d̠igh d̠a̠ ologi otu bho̠, sa̠ a̠pura̠n awa ma̠a̠, “Inyin na̠ odin ere na̠ o̠su̠su̠ghu̠d̠i̠an, na̠ oleghe ma̠ o̠ku̠a? O̠nyani̠ bho̠ ta̠ omugh d̠o̠, ya̠a̠ na̠ a̠kod̠u ma̠ adala.”He went inside and asked, “Why all this commotion and weeping? The child is not dead, but asleep.”

40Sa̠ a̠nwunom bho̠ i̠mo̠lo̠gh i̠ki̠ri̠ i̠na.

After He had put them all outside, He took the child’s father and mother and His own companions, and went in to see the child.

41Sa̠ i̠na a̠sibh o̠nyani̠ bho̠ d̠a̠ agu̠o̠ a̠fugh a̠nigha̠ ma̠a̠, “Talita, Kumi!” wa̠ a̠ma̠ra̠ ma̠a̠, “O̠gbara o̠nyani̠, b̠etina̠!”Taking her by the hand, Jesus said, “Talitha koum!” which means, “Little girl, I say to you, get up!”
