began to pray him to depart from them; out of their coasts for they were taken with great fear: And he
went up into the ship, and when he was come into the ship, and returned back again. Now the man out
of whom the devils were departed besought him that he might be with him: Howbeit Jesus suffered him
not, but Jesus sent him away, saying unto him,
“Go home to thy friends, return to thine own house, and tell them and show how great things
the Lord God hath done unto thee, and hath had compassion on thee.”
And he went his way, and he departed, and began to publish throughout the whole city in
Decapolis how great things Jesus had done unto him and all men did marvel. And it came to pass, that,

was nigh unto the sea. The people gladly received him: For they were all waiting for him. Ω
