29 Poiché Gesù comandava allo spirito immondo d’uscir da quell’uomo; molte volte infatti esso se n’era impadronito; e benché lo si fosse legato con catene e custodito in ceppi, avea spezzato i legami, ed era portato via dal demonio ne’ deserti.
29
For Jesus had commanded the impure 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.
