Mark 5 (PORBR201)

1E chegaram ao outro lado do mar, à terra dos Gadarenos.On the other side of the sea, they arrived in the region of the Gerasenes.

2Assim que Jesus saiu do barco, veio das sepulturas ao seu encontro um homem com um espírito imundo,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.

3que morava nas sepulturas, e nem mesmo com correntes conseguiam prendê-lo;This man had been living in the tombs and could no longer be restrained, even with chains.

4pois muitas vezes fora preso com grilhões e correntes; mas as correntes eram por ele feitas em pedaços, os grilhões eram esmigalhados, e ninguém o conseguia controlar.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.

5E sempre dia e noite andava gritando pelos montes e pelas sepulturas, e ferindo-se com pedras.Night and day in the tombs and in the mountains he kept crying out and cutting himself with stones.

6Quando ele viu Jesus de longe, correu e prostrou-se diante dele.When the man saw Jesus from a distance, he ran and fell on his knees before Him.

7E gritou em alta voz: Que tenho eu contigo Jesus, Filho do Deus Altíssimo? Imploro-te por Deus que não me atormentes.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!”

8(Pois Jesus havia lhe dito: “Sai deste homem, espírito imundo”.)For Jesus had already declared, “Come out of this man, you unclean spirit!”

9Então perguntou-lhe: Qual é o teu nome? E respondeu: Legião é o meu nome, porque somos muitos.“What is your name?” Jesus asked. “My name is Legion,” he replied, “for we are many.”

10E rogava-lhe muito que não os expulsasse daquela terra.And he begged Jesus repeatedly not to send them out of that region.

11Havia ali perto dos montes uma grande manada de porcos pastando.There on the nearby hillside a large herd of pigs was feeding.

12E todos aqueles demônios rogaram-lhe, dizendo: Manda-nos para aqueles porcos, para que entremos neles.So the demons begged Jesus, “Send us to the pigs, so that we may enter them.”

13Imediatamente Jesus lhes permitiu. Então aqueles espíritos imundos saíram para entrar nos porcos; e a manada lançou-se abaixo no mar; (eram quase dois mil) e afogaram-se no mar.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.

14Os que apascentavam os porcos fugiram, e avisaram na cidade e nos campos; e as pessoas foram ver o que havia acontecido.Those tending the pigs ran off and reported this in the town and countryside, and the people went out to see what had happened.

15Então aproximaram-se de Jesus, e viram o endemoninhado sentado, vestido, e em sã consciência o que tivera a legião; e ficaram apavorados.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.

16E os que haviam visto contaram-lhes o que acontecera ao endemoninhado, e sobre os porcos.Those who had seen it described what had happened to the demon-possessed man and also to the pigs.

17Então começaram a rogar-lhe que saísse do território deles.And the people began to beg Jesus to leave their region.

18Quando Jesus entrava no barco, o que fora endemoninhado rogou-lhe que estivesse com ele.As He was getting into the boat, the man who had been possessed by the demons begged to go with Him.

19Jesus se recusou, porém lhe disse: Vai para a tua casa, aos teus, e anuncia-lhes quão grandes coisas o Senhor fez contigo, e como teve misericórdia de ti.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.”

20Então ele foi embora, e começou a anunciar em Decápolis quão grandes coisas Jesus havia feito com ele; e todos se admiravam.So the man went away and began to proclaim throughout the Decapolis how much Jesus had done for him. And everyone was amazed.

21Depois de Jesus passar outra vez num barco para o outro lado, uma grande multidão se ajuntou a ele; e ele ficou junto ao mar.When Jesus had again crossed by boat to the other side, a large crowd gathered around Him beside the sea.

22E eis que veio um dos líderes de sinagoga, por nome Jairo; e quando o viu, prostrou-se aos seus pés.A synagogue leader named Jairus arrived, and seeing Jesus, he fell at His feet

23E implorava-lhe muito, dizendo: Minha filhinha está a ponto de morrer. Rogo-te que venhas pôr as mãos sobre ela, para que seja curada, e viva.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.”

24Jesus foi com ele. Uma grande multidão o seguia, e o apertavam.So Jesus went with him, and a large crowd followed and pressed around Him.

25E havia uma certa mulher, que tinha um fluxo de sangue havia doze anos,And a woman was there who had suffered from bleeding for twelve years.

26que tinha sofrido muito por meio de muitos médicos, e gastado tudo quanto possuía, e nada havia lhe dado bom resultado; ao invés disso, piorava.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.

27Quando ela ouviu falar de Jesus, veio entre a multidão por detrás, e tocou a roupa dele.When the woman heard about Jesus, she came up through the crowd behind Him and touched His cloak.

28Pois dizia: Se tão somente tocar as suas roupas, serei curada.For she kept saying, “If only I touch His garments, I will be healed.”

29E imediatamente a fonte do seu sangue parou se secou; e sentiu no corpo que já havia sido curada daquele flagelo.Immediately her bleeding stopped, and she sensed in her body that she was healed of her affliction.

30Jesus logo notou em si o poder que dele havia saído. Então virou-se na multidão, e perguntou: Quem tocou as minhas roupas?At once Jesus was aware that power had gone out from Him. Turning to the crowd, He asked, “Who touched My garments?”

31E seus discípulos lhe disseram: Eis que a multidão te aperta, e perguntas: Quem me tocou?His disciples answered, “You can see the crowd pressing in on You, and yet You ask, ‘Who touched Me?’”

32E ele olhava em redor, para ver quem havia lhe feito isso.But He kept looking around to see who had done this.

33Então a mulher temendo, e tremendo, sabendo o que havia sido feito em si, veio, prostrou-se diante dele, e disse-lhe toda a verdade.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.

34E ele lhe disse: Filha, a tua fé te salvou. Vai em paz, e estejas curada deste teu flagelo.“Daughter,” said Jesus, “your faith has healed you. Go in peace and be free of your affliction.”

35Estando ele ainda falando, alguns vieram da casa do líder de sinagoga, e disseram: A tua filha já morreu; por que ainda estás incomodando o Mestre?While He was still speaking, messengers from the house of Jairus arrived and said, “Your daughter is dead; why bother the Teacher anymore?”

36Mas Jesus, assim que ouviu essa palavra que havia sido falada, disse ao líder de sinagoga: Não temas; crê somente.But Jesus overheard their conversation and said to Jairus, “Do not be afraid; just believe.”

37E não permitiu que ninguém o seguisse, a não ser Pedro, Tiago, e João irmão de Tiago.And He did not allow anyone to accompany Him except Peter, James, and John the brother of James.

38Ele chegou à casa do líder de sinagoga, e viu o alvoroço, os que choravam muito e pranteavam.When they arrived at the house of the synagogue leader, Jesus saw the commotion and the people weeping and wailing loudly.

39E ao entrar, disse-lhes: Por que fazeis alvoroço e chorais? A menina não morreu, mas está dormindo.He went inside and asked, “Why all this commotion and weeping? The child is not dead, but asleep.”

40E riram dele. Porém ele, depois de pôr todos fora, tomou consigo o pai e a mãe da menina, e os que estavam com ele. Em seguida, entrou onde a menina estava deitada.And they laughed at Him. 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.

41Ele pegou a mão da menina, e lhe disse: “Talita cumi”, (que significa: “Menina, eu te digo, levanta-te”).Taking her by the hand, Jesus said, “Talitha koum!” which means, “Little girl, I say to you, get up!”

42E logo a menina se levantou e andou, pois já tinha doze anos de idade. E ficaram grandemente espantados.Immediately the girl got up and began to walk around (she was twelve years old). And at once they were utterly astounded.

43E mandou-lhes muito que ninguém o soubesse; e mandou que dessem a ela de comer.Then Jesus gave strict orders that no one should know about this, and He told them to give her something to eat.
