The Latin Vulgate w/ Apocrypha VULA
New International Version NIV
2 et exeunti ei de navi statim occurrit ei de monumentis homo in spiritu inmundo
2
When Jesus got out of the boat, a man with an impure spirit came from the tombs to meet him.
3 qui domicilium habebat in monumentis et neque catenis iam quisquam eum poterat ligare
3
This man lived in the tombs, and no one could bind him anymore, not even with a chain.
4 quoniam saepe conpedibus et catenis vinctus disrupisset catenas et conpedes comminuisset et nemo poterat eum domare
4
For he had often been chained hand and foot, but he tore the chains apart and broke the irons on his feet. No one was strong enough to subdue him.
5 et semper nocte ac die in monumentis et in montibus erat clamans et concidens se lapidibus
5
Night and day among the tombs and in the hills he would cry out and cut himself with stones.
6 videns autem Iesum a longe cucurrit et adoravit eum
6
When he saw Jesus from a distance, he ran and fell on his knees in front of him.
7 et clamans voce magna dicit quid mihi et tibi Iesu Fili Dei summi adiuro te per Deum ne me torqueas
7
He shouted at the top of his voice, “What do you want with me, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? In God’s name don’t torture me!”
8 dicebat enim illi exi spiritus inmunde ab homine
8
For Jesus had said to him, “Come out of this man, you impure spirit!”
9 et interrogabat eum quod tibi nomen est et dicit ei Legio nomen mihi est quia multi sumus
9
Then Jesus asked him, “What is your name?”“My name is Legion,” he replied, “for we are many.”
10 et deprecabatur eum multum ne se expelleret extra regionem
10
And he begged Jesus again and again not to send them out of the area.
11 erat autem ibi circa montem grex porcorum magnus pascens
11
A large herd of pigs was feeding on the nearby hillside.
12 et deprecabantur eum spiritus dicentes mitte nos in porcos ut in eos introeamus
12
The demons begged Jesus, “Send us among the pigs; allow us to go into them.”
