Mark 3:7-12 Bible in Basic English (BBE)

7 And Jesus went away with his disciples to the sea, and a great number from Galilee came after him: and from Judaea,

8 And from Jerusalem, and from Idumaea, and the other side of Jordan, and the country about Tyre and Sidon, a great number, hearing what great things he did, came to him.

9 And he made a request to his disciples to have a little boat ready for him, so that he might not be crushed by the people;

10 For he had made such a great number well that all those who were diseased were falling down before him for the purpose of touching him.

11 And the unclean spirits, whenever they saw him, went down before him, crying out, and saying, You are the Son of God.

12 And he gave them special orders not to say who he was.
