3
who had

4
because many times he had been bound with fetters and chains, and the chains had been broken in pieces by him, and the fetters shattered; neither could anyone tame him.

Crying out with a loud voice, he said, What hast thou with me, Jesus,
thou Son of the most high God? I adjure thee by God, that thou torment me not.
8
For he said unto him, Come out of the man,
thou unclean spirit.

And he asked him, What
is thy name? And he answered, saying, My name
is Legion, for we are many.
