And going on from thence, he saw other two brethren, James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, in a ship with Zebedee their father, mending their nets; and he called them.
And they immediately left the ship and their father, and followed him.
¶ And Jesus went about all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing all manner of sickness and all manner of disease among the people.
And his fame went throughout all Syria: and they brought unto him all sick people that were taken with divers diseases and torments, and those which were possessed with devils, and those which were lunatick, and those that had the palsy; and he healed them.
And there followed him great multitudes of people from Galilee, and from Decapolis, and from Jerusalem, and from Judæa, and from beyond Jordan.

    2And, behold, they brought to him a man sick of the palsy, lying on a bed: and Jesus seeing their faith said unto the sick of the palsy; Son, be of good cheer; thy sins be forgiven thee.

    3And, behold, certain of the scribes said within themselves, This man blasphemeth.

    4And Jesus knowing their thoughts said, Wherefore think ye evil in your hearts?

    5For whether is easier, to say, Thy sins be forgiven thee; or to say, Arise, and walk?

    6But that ye may know that the Son of man hath power on earth to forgive sins, (then saith he to the sick of the palsy,) Arise, take up thy bed, and go unto thine house.

    7And he arose, and departed to his house.

    8But when the multitudes saw it, they marvelled, and glorified God, which had given such power unto men.

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

    3Who had his dwelling among the tombs; and no man could bind him, no, not with chains:

    4Because that he had been often bound with fetters and chains, and the chains had been plucked asunder by him, and the fetters broken in pieces: neither could any man tame him.

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

    6But when he saw Jesus afar off, he ran and worshipped him,

    7And cried with a loud voice, and said, What have I to do with thee, Jesus, thou Son of the most high God? I adjure thee by God, that thou torment me not.

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

    9And he asked him, What is thy name? And he answered, saying, My name is Legion: for we are many.

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

    11Now there was there nigh unto the mountains a great herd of swine feeding.

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

    13And forthwith Jesus gave them leave. And the unclean spirits went out, and entered into the swine: and the herd ran violently down a steep place into the sea, (they were about two thousand;) and were choked in the sea.

    14And they that fed the swine fled, and told it in the city, and in the country. And they went out to see what it was that was done.

    15And they come to Jesus, and see him that was possessed with the devil, and had the legion, sitting, and clothed, and in his right mind: and they were afraid.

    16And they that saw it told them how it befell to him that was possessed with the devil, and also concerning the swine.

    17And they began to pray him to depart out of their coasts.

    18And when he was come into the ship, he that had been possessed with the devil prayed him that he might be with him.
