29 Porque Jesus ordenara ao espírito imundo que saísse do homem. Pois já havia muito tempo que se apoderara dele; e guardavam-no preso com grilhões e cadeias; mas ele, quebrando as prisões, era impelido pelo demônio para os desertos.
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.
