Vangelo secondo Marco 5

DIODATI	CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN
1 E GIUNSERO all’altra riva del mare nella contrada de’ Gadareni.	1 And they went across the strait of the sea into the region of the Gerasenes.
2 E, come Gesù fu uscito della navicella, subito gli venne incontro da’ monumenti, un uomo posseduto da uno spirito immondo.	2 And as he was departing from the boat, he was immediately met, from among the tombs, by a man with an unclean spirit,
3 Il quale avea la sua dimora fra i monumenti, e niuno potea tenerlo attaccato, non pur con catene.	3 who had his dwelling place with the tombs; neither had anyone been able to bind him, even with chains.
4 Perciocchè spesso era stato attaccato con ceppi, e con catene; e le catene eran da lui state rotte, e i ceppi spezzati, e niuno potea domarlo.	4 For having been bound often with shackles and chains, he had broken the chains and smashed the shackles; and no one had been able to tame him.
5 E del continuo, notte e giorno, fra i monumenti, e su per li monti, andava gridando, e picchiandosi con pietre.	5 And he was always, day and night, among the tombs, or in the mountains, crying out and cutting himself with stones.
6 Ora, quando egli ebbe veduto Gesù da lungi, corse e l’adorò.	6 And seeing Jesus from afar, he ran and adored him.
7 E dato un gran grido, disse: Che vi è fra me e te, Gesù, Figliuol dell’Iddio altissimo? Io ti scongiuro nel nome di Dio, che tu non mi tormenti.	7 And crying out with a loud voice, he said: “What am I to you, Jesus, the Son of the Most High God? I beseech you by God, that you not torment me.”
8 Perciocchè egli gli diceva: Spirito immondo, esci di quest’uomo.	8 For he said to him, “Depart from the man, you unclean spirit.”
9 E Gesù gli domandò: Quale è il tuo nome? Ed esso rispose, dicendo: Io ho nome Legione, perciocchè siam molti.	9 And he questioned him: “What is your name?” And he said to him, “My name is Legion, for we are many.”
10 Ed esso lo pregava molto che non li mandasse fuori di quella contrada.	10 And he entreated him greatly, so that he would not expel him from the region.
11 Or quivi presso al monte era una gran greggia di porci che pasceva.	11 And in that place, near the mountain, there was a great herd of swine, feeding.
12 E tutti que’ demoni lo pregavano, dicendo: Mandaci in que’ porci, acciocchè entriamo in essi.	12 And the spirits entreated him, saying: “Send us into the swine, so that we may enter into them.”
13 E Gesù prontamente lo permise loro; laonde quegli spiriti immondi, usciti, entraron ne’ porci; e quella greggia si gettò per lo precipizio nel mare or erano intorno a duemila, ed affogaron nel mare.	13 And Jesus promptly gave them permission. And the unclean spirits, departing, entered into the swine. And the herd of about two thousand rushed down with great force into the sea, and they were drowned in the sea.
14 E coloro che pasturavano i porci fuggirono, e rapportaron la cosa nella città, e per li campi; e la gente uscì fuori, per vedere ciò che era avvenuto.	14 Then those who pastured them fled, and they reported it in the city and in the countryside. And they all went out to see what was happening.
15 E venne a Gesù, e vide l’indemoniato che sedeva, ed era vestito; e colui che avea avuta la legione essere in buon senno; e temette.	15 And they came to Jesus. And they saw the man who had been troubled by the demon, sitting, clothed and with a sane mind, and they were afraid.
16 E coloro che avean veduta la cosa raccontaron loro come era avvenuto all’indemoniato, e il fatto de’ porci.	16 And those who had seen it explained to them how he had dealt with the man who had the demon, and about the swine.
17 Ed essi presero a pregarlo che se ne andasse da’ lor confini.	17 And they began to petition him, so that he would withdraw from their borders.
18 E come egli fu entrato nella navicella, colui ch’era stato indemoniato lo pregava di poter stare con lui.	18 And as he was climbing into the boat, the man who had been troubled by the demons began to beg him, so that he might be with him.
19 Ma Gesù non gliel permise: anzi gli disse: Va’ a casa tua a’ tuoi, e racconta loro quanto gran cose il Signore ti ha fatte, e come egli ha avuta pietà di te.	19 And he did not permit him, but he said to him, “Go to your own people, in your own house, and announce to them how great are the things that Lord has done for you, and how he has taken pity on you.”
20 Ed egli andò, e prese a predicare in Decapoli quanto gran cose Gesù gli avea fatte. E tutti si maravigliavano	20 And he went away and began to preach in the Ten Cities, how great were the things that Jesus had done for him. And everyone wondered.
21 ED essendo Gesù di nuovo passato all’altra riva, in su la navicella, una gran moltitudine si raunò appresso di lui; ed egli se ne stava appresso del mare.	21 And when Jesus had crossed in the boat, over the strait again, a great crowd came together before him. And he was near the sea.
22 Ed ecco, un de’ capi della sinagoga, chiamato per nome Iairo, venne; e vedutolo, gli si gittò a’ piedi.	22 And one of the rulers of the synagogue, named Jairus, approached. And seeing him, he fell prostrate at his feet.
23 E lo pregava molto instantemente, dicendo: La mia figliolina è all’estremo; deh! vieni, e metti le mani sopra lei acciocchè sia salvata, ed ella viverà.	23 And he beseeched him greatly, saying: “For my daughter is near the end. Come and lay your hand on her, so that she may be healthy and may live.”
24 Ed egli se ne andò con lui, e gran moltitudine lo seguitava, e l’affollava.	24 And he went with him. And a great crowd followed him, and they pressed upon him.
25 Or una donna, che avea un flusso di sangue già da dodici anni,	25 And there was a woman who had a flow of blood for twelve years.
26 ed avea sofferte molte cose da molti medici, ed avea speso tutto il suo, senza alcun giovamento, anzi più tosto era peggiorata;	26 And she had endured much from several physicians, and she had spent everything she owned with no benefit at all, but instead she became worse.
27 avendo udito parlar di Gesù, venne di dietro, nella turba, e toccò il suo vestimento.	27 Then, when she had heard of Jesus, she approached through the crowd behind him, and she touched his garment.
28 Perciocchè diceva: Se sol tocco i suoi vestimenti, sarò salva.	28 For she said: “Because if I touch even his garment, I will be saved.”
29 E in quello stante il flusso del suo sangue si stagnò; ed ella si avvide nel suo corpo ch’ella era guarita di quel flagello.	29 And immediately, the source of her bleeding was dried up, and she sensed in her body that she had been healed from the wound.
30 E subito Gesù, conoscendo in se stesso la virtù ch’era proceduta da lui, rivoltosi nella turba, disse: Chi mi ha toccati i vestimenti?	30 And immediately Jesus, realizing within himself that power that had gone out from him, turning to the crowd, said, “Who touched my garments?”
31 Ed i suoi discepoli gli dissero: Tu vedi la turba che ti affolla, e dici: Chi mi ha toccato?	31 And his disciples said to him, “You see that the crowd presses around you, and yet you say, ‘Who touched me?’ ”
32 Ma egli guardava pure attorno, per veder colei che avea ciò fatto.	32 And he looked around to see the woman who had done this.
33 E la donna, paurosa, e tremante, sapendo ciò ch’era stato fatto in lei, venne, e gli si gittò a’ piedi, e gli disse tutta la verità.	33 Yet truly, the woman, in fear and trembling, knowing what had happened within her, went and fell prostrate before him, and she told him the whole truth.
34 Ma egli le disse: Figliuola, la tua fede ti ha salvata; vattene in pace, e sii guarita del tuo flagello	34 And he said to her: “Daughter, your faith has saved you. Go in peace, and be healed from your wound.”
35 Mentre egli parlava ancora, vennero alcuni di casa del capo della sinagoga, dicendo: La tua figliuola è morta; perchè dài più molestia al Maestro?	35 While he was still speaking, they arrived from the ruler of the synagogue, saying: “Your daughter is dead. Why trouble the Teacher any further?”
36 Ma subito Gesù, udito ciò che si diceva, disse al capo della sinagoga: Non temere, credi solamente.	36 But Jesus, having heard the word that was spoken, said to the ruler of the synagogue: “Do not be afraid. You need only believe.”
37 E non permise che alcuno lo seguitasse, se non Pietro, e Giacomo, e Giovanni, fratel di Giacomo.	37 And he would not permit anyone to follow him, except Peter, and James, and John the brother of James.
38 E venne in casa del capo della sinagoga, e vide quivi un grande strepito, gente che piangevano, e facevano un grande urlare.	38 And they went to the house of the ruler of the synagogue. And he saw a tumult, and weeping, and much wailing.
39 Ed entrato dentro, disse loro: Perchè fate tanto romore, e tanti pianti? la fanciulla non è morta, ma dorme.	39 And entering, he said to them: “Why are you disturbed and weeping? The girl is not dead, but is asleep.”
40 Ed essi si ridevan di lui. Ma egli, messi fuori tutti, prese seco il padre e la madre della fanciulla, e coloro ch’erano con lui, ed entrò là dove la fanciulla giaceva.	40 And they derided him. Yet truly, having put them all out, he took the father and mother of the girl, and those who were with him, and he entered to where the girl was lying.
41 E presa la fanciulla per la mano, le disse: Talita cumi; il che, interpretato, vuol dire: Fanciulla io tel dico, levati.	41 And taking the girl by the hand, he said to her, “Talitha koumi,” which means, “Little girl, (I say to you) arise.
42 E subito la fanciullina si levò, e camminava; perciocchè era d’età di dodici anni. Ed essi sbigottirono di grande sbigottimento.	42 And immediately the young girl rose up and walked. Now she was twelve years old. And they were suddenly struck with a great astonishment.
43 Ed egli comandò loro molto strettamente, che niuno lo sapesse; e ordinò che si desse da mangiare alla fanciulla	43 And he instructed them sternly, so that no one would know about it. And he told them to give her something to eat.
