Mark 3:8-10

New Century Version

⁸ Also many people came from Judea, from Jerusalem, from Idumea, from the lands across the Jordan River, and from the area of Tyre and Sidon. When they heard what Jesus was doing, many people came to him. ⁹ When Jesus saw the crowds, he told his followers to get a boat ready for him to keep people from crowding against him. ¹⁰ He had healed many people, so all the sick were pushing toward him to touch him.
