And they arrived at the country of the Gadarenes, which is over against Galilee.
27
And when he went forth to land, there met him out of the city a certain man, who had demons for a long time and wore no clothes, neither abode in
any house, but in the tombs.
28
When he saw Jesus, he cried out and fell down before him and with a loud voice said, What have I to do with thee, Jesus,
thou Son of God most high? I beseech thee, torment me not.
29
(For he had commanded the unclean spirit to come out of the man. For oftentimes it had caught him, and he was kept bound with chains and in fetters, and he broke the bands and was driven of the demon into the wilderness.)
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.
33
Then the demons went out of the man and entered into the swine, and the herd ran violently down a steep place into the lake and were choked.
34
When those that fed
them saw what was done, they fled and went and told
it in the city and in the country.
35
Then they went out to see what was done and came to Jesus and found the man, out of whom the demons were departed, sitting at the feet of Jesus, clothed, and in his right mind; and they were afraid.
36
And those who saw
it told them by what means he that was possessed of the demons was saved.
