Mark 5:15-20

15 They came to Jesus and observed the man who had been ¹demon-possessed sitting down, ²clothed and ³in his right mind, the very man who had had the "⁴legion "; and they became frightened.

16 Those who had seen it described to them how it had happened to the ⁵demon-possessed man, and all about the swine.

17 And they began to ⁶implore Him to leave their region.

18 ⁷As He was getting into the boat, the man who had been ⁸demon-possessed was imploring Him that he might accompany * Him.

19 And He did not let him, but He said to him, "⁹Go home to your people and report to them what great things the Lord has done for you, and how He had mercy on you."

20 And he went away and began to ¹⁰proclaim in ¹¹Decapolis what great things Jesus had done for him; and everyone was amazed.
