King James Power New Testament New International Version
34. And when they were gone over, they came into the land of the Gennesaret.  

35. And when the men of that place had knowledge of him, they sent out into all that country round about, and brought unto him all that were diseased;

36. And besought him that they might only touch the hem of his garment: and as many as touched were made perfectly whole.

34. Then after they crossed they came to shore in Gennesaret.  35. And when they recognized Him the men of that place sent into that whole neighboring region and they brought to Him all those who had evil  36. and they were begging Him to just touch the tsitsit  of His prayer shawl: and they who touched were rescued.

 

34. When they had crossed over, they landed at Gennesaret. 35. And when the men of that place recognized Jesus, they sent word to all the surrounding country.  People brought all their sick to him 36. and begged him to let the sick just touch the edge of his cloak, and all who touched him were healed.

(v.35) The Greek word kakos literally means evil, but is used to refer to
any affliction, blindness, deafness, paralysis, disease, etc.


(v.36) This is the corner fringe of a prayer shawl.  See Prayer Shawl in
Glossary.


(v.36) The word used here is diasodzo, meaning “brought safely through.”
