Mark 5

NEW AMERICAN BIBLE	SAGRADA BIBLIA
1 They came to the other side of the sea, to the territory of the Gerasenes.	1 Passaram à outra margem do lago, ao território dos gerasenos.
2 When he got out of the boat, at once a man from the tombs who had an unclean spirit met him.	2 Assim que saíram da barca, um homem possesso do espírito imundo saiu do cemitério
3 The man had been dwelling among the tombs, and no one could restrain him any longer, even with a chain.	3 onde tinha seu refúgio e veio-lhe ao encontro. Não podiam atá-lo nem com cadeia, mesmo nos sepulcros,
4 In fact, he had frequently been bound with shackles and chains, but the chains had been pulled apart by him and the shackles smashed, and no one was strong enough to subdue him.	4 pois tinha sido ligado muitas vezes com grilhões e cadeias, mas os despedaçara e ninguém o podia subjugar.
5 Night and day among the tombs and on the hillsides he was always crying out and bruising himself with stones.	5 Sempre, dia e noite, andava pelos sepulcros e nos montes, gritando e ferindo-se com pedras.
6 Catching sight of Jesus from a distance, he ran up and prostrated himself before him,	6 Vendo Jesus de longe, correu e prostrou-se diante dele, gritando em alta voz:
7 crying out in a loud voice, "What have you to do with me, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I adjure you by God, do not torment me!"	7 Que queres de mim, Jesus, Filho do Deus Altíssimo?Conjuro-te por Deus, que não me atormentes.
8 (He had been saying to him, "Unclean spirit, come out of the man!")	8 É que Jesus lhe dizia: Espírito imundo, sai deste homem!
9 He asked him, "What is your name?" He replied, "Legion is my name. There are many of us."	9 Perguntou-lhe Jesus: Qual é o teu nome? Respondeu-lhe: Legião é o meu nome, porque somos muitos.
10 And he pleaded earnestly with him not to drive them away from that territory.	10 E pediam-lhe com instância que não os lançasse fora daquela região.
11 Now a large herd of swine was feeding there on the hillside.	11 Ora, uma grande manada de porcos andava pastando ali junto do monte.
12 And they pleaded with him, "Send us into the swine. Let us enter them."	12 E os espíritos suplicavam-lhe: Manda-nos para os porcos, para entrarmos neles.
13 And he let them, and the unclean spirits came out and entered the swine. The herd of about two thousand rushed down a steep bank into the sea, where they were drowned.	13 Jesus lhos permitiu. Então os espíritos imundos, tendo saído, entraram nos porcos; e a manada, de uns dois mil, precipitou-se no mar, afogando-se.
14 The swineherds ran away and reported the incident in the town and throughout the countryside. And people came out to see what had happened.	14 Fugiram os pastores e narraram o fato na cidade e pelos arredores. Então saíram a ver o que tinha acontecido.
15 As they approached Jesus, they caught sight of the man who had been possessed by Legion, sitting there clothed and in his right mind. And they were seized with fear.	15 Aproximaram-se de Jesus e viram o possesso assentado, coberto com seu manto e calmo, ele que tinha sido possuído pela Legião. E o pânico apoderou-se deles.
16 Those who witnessed the incident explained to them what had happened to the possessed man and to the swine.	16 As testemunhas do fato contaram-lhes como havia acontecido isso ao endemoninhado, e o caso dos porcos.
17 Then they began to beg him to leave their district.	17 Começaram então a rogar-lhe que se retirasse da sua região.
18 As he was getting into the boat, the man who had been possessed pleaded to remain with him.	18 Quando ele subia para a barca, veio o que tinha sido possesso e pediu-lhe permissão de acompanhá-lo.
19 But he would not permit him but told him instead, "Go home to your family and announce to them all that the Lord in his pity has done for you."	19 Jesus não o admitiu, mas disse-lhe: Vai para casa, para junto dos teus e anuncia-lhes tudo o que o Senhor fez por ti, e como se compadeceu de ti.
20 Then the man went off and began to proclaim in the Decapolis what Jesus had done for him; and all were amazed.	20 Foi-se ele e começou a publicar, na Decápole, tudo o que Jesus lhe havia feito. E todos se admiravam.
21 When Jesus had crossed again (in the boat) to the other side, a large crowd gathered around him, and he stayed close to the sea.	21 Tendo Jesus navegado outra vez para a margem oposta, de novo afluiu a ele uma grande multidão. Ele se achava à beira do mar, quando
22 One of the synagogue officials, named Jairus, came forward. Seeing him he fell at his feet	22 um dos chefes da sinagoga, chamado Jairo, se apresentou e, à sua vista, lançou-se-lhe aos pés,
23 and pleaded earnestly with him, saying, "My daughter is at the point of death. Please, come lay your hands on her that she may get well and live."	23 rogando-lhe com insistência: Minha filhinha está nas últimas. Vem, impõe-lhe as mãos para que se salve e viva.
24 He went off with him, and a large crowd followed him and pressed upon him.	24 Jesus foi com ele e grande multidão o seguia, comprimindo-o.
25 There was a woman afflicted with hemorrhages for twelve years.	25 Ora, havia ali uma mulher que já por doze anos padecia de um fluxo de sangue.
26 She had suffered greatly at the hands of many doctors and had spent all that she had. Yet she was not helped but only grew worse.	26 Sofrera muito nas mãos de vários médicos, gastando tudo o que possuía, sem achar nenhum alívio; pelo contrário, piorava cada vez mais.
27 She had heard about Jesus and came up behind him in the crowd and touched his cloak.	27 Tendo ela ouvido falar de Jesus, veio por detrás, entre a multidão, e tocou-lhe no manto.
28 She said, "If I but touch his clothes, I shall be cured."	28 Dizia ela consigo: Se tocar, ainda que seja na orla do seu manto, estarei curada.
29 Immediately her flow of blood dried up. She felt in her body that she was healed of her affliction.	29 Ora, no mesmo instante se lhe estancou a fonte de sangue, e ela teve a sensação de estar curada.
30 Jesus, aware at once that power had gone out from him, turned around in the crowd and asked, "Who has touched my clothes?"	30 Jesus percebeu imediatamente que saíra dele uma força e, voltando-se para o povo, perguntou: Quem tocou minhas vestes?
31 But his disciples said to him, "You see how the crowd is pressing upon you, and yet you ask, 'Who touched me?'"	31 Responderam-lhe os seus discípulos: Vês que a multidão te comprime e perguntas: Quem me tocou?
32 And he looked around to see who had done it.	32 E ele olhava em derredor para ver quem o fizera.
33 The woman, realizing what had happened to her, approached in fear and trembling. She fell down before Jesus and told him the whole truth.	33 Ora, a mulher, atemorizada e trêmula, sabendo o que nela se tinha passado, veio lançar-se-lhe aos pés e contou-lhe toda a verdade.
34 He said to her, "Daughter, your faith has saved you. Go in peace and be cured of your affliction."	34 Mas ele lhe disse: Filha, a tua fé te salvou. Vai em paz e sê curada do teu mal.
35 While he was still speaking, people from the synagogue official's house arrived and said, "Your daughter has died; why trouble the teacher any longer?"	35 Enquanto ainda falava, chegou alguém da casa do chefe da sinagoga, anunciando: Tua filha morreu. Para que ainda incomodas o Mestre?
36 Disregarding the message that was reported, Jesus said to the synagogue official, "Do not be afraid; just have faith."	36 Ouvindo Jesus a notícia que era transmitida, dirigiu-se ao chefe da sinagoga: Não temas; crê somente.
37 He did not allow anyone to accompany him inside except Peter, James, and John, the brother of James.	37 E não permitiu que ninguém o acompanhasse, senão Pedro, Tiago e João, irmão de Tiago.
38 When they arrived at the house of the synagogue official, he caught sight of a commotion, people weeping and wailing loudly.	38 Ao chegar à casa do chefe da sinagoga, viu o alvoroço e os que estavam chorando e fazendo grandes lamentações.
39 So he went in and said to them, "Why this commotion and weeping? The child is not dead but asleep."	39 Ele entrou e disse-lhes: Por que todo esse barulho e esses choros? A menina não morreu. Ela está dormindo.
40 And they ridiculed him. Then he put them all out. He took along the child's father and mother and those who were with him and entered the room where the child was.	40 Mas riam-se dele. Contudo, tendo mandado sair todos, tomou o pai e a mãe da menina e os que levava consigo, e entrou onde a menina estava deitada.
41 He took the child by the hand and said to her, "Talitha koum," which means, "Little girl, I say to you, arise!"	41 Segurou a mão da menina e disse-lhe: Talita cumi, que quer dizer: Menina, ordeno-te, levanta-te!
42 The girl, a child of twelve, arose immediately and walked around. (At that) they were utterly astounded.	42 E imediatamente a menina se levantou e se pôs a caminhar {pois contava doze anos}. Eles ficaram assombrados.
43 He gave strict orders that no one should know this and said that she should be given something to eat.	43 Ordenou-lhes severamente que ninguém o soubesse, e mandou que lhe dessem de comer.Jesus de Nazaré
