Mark 5:17-19

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

¹⁷ And they began to beg Jesus^[a] to depart from their neighborhood. ¹⁸ And as he was getting into the boat, the man who had been possessed with demons begged him that he might be with him. ¹⁹ But he refused, and said to him, “Go home to your friends, and tell them how much the Lord has done for you, and how he has had mercy on you.”
