36 And those who had seen it reported to them how the man who had been demon-possessed had been healed.
37 And all the people of the surrounding region of the Gerasenes asked him to depart from them, because they had been seized with great fear. So he got into the boat and returned.
38 And the man from who the demons had gone out was begging him to stay with him, but he sent him away, saying,
39 “Return to your home and tell all that God has done for you.” And he went away, proclaiming throughout the whole town all that Jesus had done for him.
40 Now when Jesus returned, the crowd welcomed him, because they were all waiting for him.
41 And behold, a man who was named Jairus came, and this man was a ruler of the synagogue. And he fell down at the feet of Jesus and began imploring him to come to his house,
42 because he had an only daughter, about twelve years old, and she was dying. Now as he was going, the crowds were pressing against him.
