But when he saw Jesus afar off, he ran and worshiped him,
7
And cried with a loud voice, and said, What have I to do with thee, Jesus, [thou] Son of the Most High God? I adjure thee by God, that thou torment me not.
8
(For he said to him, Come out of the man, [thou] unclean spirit.)
9
And he asked him, What [is] thy name? And he answered, saying, My name [is] Legion: for we are many.
10
And he besought him much that he would not send them away out of the country.
11
Now there was there nigh to the mountains a great herd of swine feeding.
12
And all the demons besought him, saying, Send us into the swine, that we may enter into them.
13
And forthwith Jesus gave them leave. And the unclean spirits went out, and entered into the swine: and the herd ran violently down a steep place into the sea (they were about two thousand) and were choked in the sea.
14
And they that fed the swine fled, and told [it] in the city, and in the country. And they went out to see what it was that was done.
15
And they come to Jesus, and see him that was possessed with the demon, and had the legion, sitting, and clothed, and in his right mind: and they were afraid.
16
And they that saw [it] told them how it befell him that was possessed with the demon, and [also] concerning the swine.
