* And they arrived (5656 ) at the country of the Gadarenes , which is (5748 ) over against Galilee . * And when he went forth (5631 ) to land , there met (5656 ) him out of the city a certain man , which had (5707 ) devils long time , and ware (5710 ) no clothes , neither abode (5707 ) in any house , but in the tombs . * When he saw (5631 ) Jesus , he cried out (5660 ), and fell down before (5627 ) him , and with a loud voice said (5627 ), What have I to do with thee , Jesus , thou Son of God most high ? I beseech (5736 ) thee , torment (5661 ) me not . * (For he had commanded (5707 ) (5625 ) (5656 ) the unclean spirit to come (5629 ) out of the man . For oftentimes it had caught (5715 ) him : and he was kept (5746 ) bound (5712 ) with chains and in fetters ; and he brake (5723 ) the bands , and was driven (5712 ) of the devil into the wilderness .) * And Jesus asked (5656 ) him , saying (5723 ), What is (5748 ) thy name ? And he said (5627 ), Legion : because many devils were entered (5627 ) into him . * And they besought (5707 ) (5625 ) (5707 ) him that he would not command (5661 ) them to go out (5629 ) into the deep . * And there was (5713 ) there an herd of many swine feeding (5746 ) on the mountain : and they besought (5707 ) him that he would suffer (5661 ) them to enter (5629 ) into them . And he suffered (5656 ) them . * Then went (5631 ) the devils out of the man , and entered (5627 ) into the swine : and the herd ran (5656 ) violently down a steep place into the lake , and were choked (5648 ). * When they that fed (5723 ) them saw (5631 ) what was done (5772 ), they fled (5627 ), and went (5631 ) and told (5656 ) it in the city and in the country . * Then they went out (5627 ) to see (5629 ) what was done (5756 ); and came (5627 ) to Jesus , and found (5627 ) the man , out of whom the devils were departed (5715 ), sitting (5740 ) at the feet of Jesus , clothed (5772 ), and in his right mind (5723 ): and they were afraid (5675 ). * They also which saw (5631 ) it told (5656 ) them by what means he that was possessed of the devils (5679 ) was healed (5681 ). * Then the whole multitude of the country of the Gadarenes round about besought (5656 ) him to depart (5629 ) from them ; for they were taken (5712 ) with great fear : and he went up (5631 ) into the ship , and returned back again (5656 ). * Now the man out of whom the devils were departed (5715 ) besought (5711 ) him that he might be (5750 ) with him : but Jesus sent him away (5656 ), saying (5723 ), * Return (5720 ) to thine own house , and shew (5737 ) how great things God hath done (5656 ) unto thee . And he went his way (5627 ), and published (5723 ) throughout the whole city how great things Jesus had done (5656 ) unto him .
