for He had healed many, with the result that all those who had afflictions pressed around Him in order to touch Him.
and they implored Him that they might just touch the fringe of His cloak; and as many as touched it were cured.
When they got out of the boat, immediately the people recognized Him, and ran about that whole country and began to carry here and there on their pallets those who were sick, to the place they heard He was. Wherever He entered villages, or cities, or countryside, they were laying the sick in the market places, and imploring Him that they might just touch the fringe of His cloak; and as many as touched it were being cured.
