31aAnd again He went out from the region of bTyre, and came through Sidon to cthe Sea of Galilee, within the region of the dDecapolis. 32And they *brought to Him one who was deaf and spoke with difficulty, and they *pleaded with Him to alay His hand on him. 33aAnd Jesus took him aside from the crowd, by himself, and put His fingers into his ears, and after bspitting, He touched his tongue; 34and looking up to heaven with a asigh, He *said to him, “Ephphatha!” that is, “Be opened!” 35And his ears were opened, and the 1impediment of his tongue 2was removed, and he began speaking plainly. 36And aHe gave them orders not to tell anyone; but the more He was ordering them, the more widely they bcontinued to proclaim it. 37And they were utterly astonished, saying, “He has done all things well; He makes even the deaf to hear and the mute to speak.”
