Mark:7:31-37
Seeker Overlay ON
*
And again ,
departing from the coasts of Tyre and Sidon ,
He came to the Sea of Galilee ,
in the midst of the borders of the Decapolis .
*
And they brought a deaf one to Him ,
hardly speaking .
And they begged Him to put [
His ]
hand on him .
*
And He took him aside from the crowd and put His fingers into his ears .
And He spat and touched his tongue .
*
And looking up to Heaven ,
He sighed and said to him ,
Ephphatha ! (
that is ,
Be opened !)
*
And instantly his ears were opened and the bond of his tongue was loosened ,
and he spoke plainly .
*
And He commanded them ,
that they should tell no one .
But the more He commanded them ,
so much the more they proclaimed [
it ].
*
And they were astonished beyond measure ,
saying ,
He has done all things well .
He makes both the deaf to hear and the dumb to speak .
