Jesus Heals Great Multitudes^(A)

^29 (B)Jesus departed from there, ^(C)skirted the Sea of Galilee, and went up on the mountain and sat down there. ^30 (D)Then great multitudes came to Him, having with them the lame, blind, mute, ^[a]maimed, and many others; and they laid them down at Jesus’ ^(E)feet, and He healed them. ³¹ So the multitude marveled when they saw the mute speaking, the ^[b]maimed made whole, the lame walking, and the blind seeing; and they ^(F)glorified the God of Israel.

Jesus Heals a Deaf-Mute^(A)

^31 (B)Again, departing from the region of Tyre and Sidon, He came through the midst of the region of Decapolis to the Sea of Galilee. ³² Then ^(C)they brought to Him one who was deaf and had an impediment in his speech, and they begged Him to put His hand on him. ³³ And He took him aside from the multitude, and put His fingers in his ears, and ^(D)He spat and touched his tongue. ³⁴ Then, ^(E)looking up to heaven, ^(F)He sighed, and said to him, “Ephphatha,” that is, “Be opened.”

^35 (G)Immediately his ears were opened, and the ^[a]impediment of his tongue was loosed, and he spoke plainly. ³⁶ Then ^(H)He commanded them that they should tell no one; but the more He commanded them, the more widely they proclaimed it. ³⁷ And they were ^(I)astonished beyond measure, saying, “He has done all things well. He ^(J)makes both the deaf to hear and the mute to speak.”
