Mark 5:17-18

5:17 Then ¹  they asked Jesus ²  to leave their region. 5:18 As he was getting into the boat the man who had been demon-possessed asked if he could go ³  with him.

¹ tn Grk “And.” Here καί (kai) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence of events within the narrative.

² tn Grk “him”; the referent (Jesus) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

³ tn Grk “be,” that is, “remain.” In this context that would involve accompanying Jesus as he went on his way.
