31 Then he returned from the region of Tyre, and went through Sidon
to the Sea of Galilee, through the region of the Decapolis. 32 And
they brought to him a man who was deaf and had an impediment in his speech;
and they besought him to lay his hand upon him. 33 And taking him
aside from the multitude privately, he put his fingers into his ears, and
he spat and touched his tongue; 34 and looking up to heaven, he sighed,
and said to him, "Ephphatha," that is, "Be opened." 35 And his ears
were opened, his tongue was released, and he spoke plainly. 36 And
he charged them to tell no one; but the more he charged them, the more
zealously they proclaimed it. 37 And they were astonished beyond
measure, saying, "He has done all things well; he even makes the deaf hear
and the dumb speak." |
