He begged Jesus repeatedly not to send them out of the region.

Then they asked Jesus to leave their region.

And the demonic spirits begged him, “Send us into the pigs. Let us enter them.”

As he was getting into the boat the man who had been demon-possessed asked if he could go with him.

They brought to him a deaf man who had difficulty speaking, and they asked him to place his hands on him.

Then they came to Bethsaida. They brought a blind man to Jesus and asked him to touch him.

Now a leper came to him and fell to his knees, asking for help. “If you are willing, you can make me clean,” he said.

He asked him urgently, “My little daughter is near death. Come and lay your hands on her so that she may be healed and live.”

And wherever he would go – into villages, towns, or countryside – they would place the sick in the marketplaces, and would ask him if they could just touch the edge of his cloak, and all who touched it were healed.
