30 And Jesus asked him, saying, What is thy name? And he said, Legion, because many demons were entered into him.
31 And they besought him that he would not command them to go out into the abyss.
32 And there was there a herd of many swine feeding on the mountain, and they besought him that he would allow them to enter into them. And he allowed them.
