- And when He came out onto the land, He was met by a man from the city who was possessed with demons; and who had not put on any clothing for a long time, and was not living in a house, but in the tombs.
- Seeing Jesus, he cried out and fell before Him, and said in a loud voice, "What business do we have with each other, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I beg You, do not torment me."
- For He had commanded the unclean spirit to come out of the man. For it had seized him many times; and he was bound with chains and shackles and kept under guard, and yet he would break his bonds and be driven by the demon into the desert.
- And Jesus asked him, "What is your name?" And he said, "Legion"; for many demons had entered him.

- They sailed to the region of the Gerasenes, which is across the lake from Galilee.
- When Jesus stepped ashore, he was met by a demon-possessed man from the town. For a long time this man had not worn clothes or lived in a house, but had lived in the tombs.
- When he saw Jesus, he cried out and fell at his feet, shouting at the top of his voice, "What do you want with me, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I beg you, don't torture me!"
- For Jesus had commanded the evil spirit to come out of the man. Many times it had seized him, and though he was chained hand and foot and kept under guard, he had broken his chains and had been driven by the demon into solitary places.
- Jesus asked him, "What is your name?" "Legion," he replied, because many demons had gone into him.

- They were imploring Him not to command them to go away into the abyss.
- Now there was a herd of many swine feeding there on the mountain; and the demons implored Him to permit them to enter the swine. And He gave them permission.
- And the demons came out of the man and entered the swine; and the herd rushed down the steep bank into the lake and was drowned.
- When the herdsmen saw what had happened, they ran away and reported it in the city and out in the country.
- The people went out to see what had happened; and they came to Jesus, and found the man from whom the demons had gone out, sitting down at the feet of Jesus, clothed and in his right mind; and they became frightened.

- And they begged him repeatedly not to order them to go into the Abyss.
- A large herd of pigs was feeding there on the hillside. The demons begged Jesus to let them go into them, and he gave them permission.
- When the demons came out of the man, they went into the pigs, and the herd rushed down the steep bank into the lake and was drowned.
- When those tending the pigs saw what had happened, they ran off and reported this in the town and countryside,
- and the people went out to see what had happened. When they came to Jesus, they found the man from whom the demons had gone out, sitting at Jesus' feet, dressed and in his right mind; and they were afraid.
|
- Those who had seen it reported to them how the man who was demon-possessed had been made well.
- And all the people of the country of the Gerasenes and the surrounding district asked Him to leave them, for they were gripped with great fear; and He got into a boat and returned.
- But the man from whom the demons had gone out was begging Him that he might accompany Him; but He sent him away, saying,
- "Return to your house and describe what great things God has done for you." So he went away, proclaiming throughout the whole city what great things Jesus had done for him.
|
- Those who had seen it told the people how the demon-possessed man had been cured.
- Then all the people of the region of the Gerasenes asked Jesus to leave them, because they were overcome with fear. So he got into the boat and left.
- The man from whom the demons had gone out begged to go with him, but Jesus sent him away, saying,
- "Return home and tell how much God has done for you." So the man went away and told all over town how much Jesus had done for him.
