26 And they sailed to the country of the Gadarenes, which lies opposite Galilee.

27 And when he came ashore, there met him a certain man from the city, possessed by demons for a long time, and not clothed in clothes, and living not in a house, but in tombs.

28 And when he saw Jesus, he cried out, and fell down before him, and said with a loud voice, 'What have you to do with me, Jesus, Son of the Most High God?' I beseech Thee, do not torment me.

29 For Jesus commanded the unclean spirit to come out of this man, because he had tormented him a long time, so that they bound him with chains and fetters, keeping him; but he broke the bonds and was driven by a demon into the wilderness.

30 Jesus asked him, 'What is your name?' He said, "Legion," because many demons have entered into it.

31 And they begged Jesus not to command them to go into the abyss.

32 And there was a great herd of pigs grazing on the mountain; and the demons asked Him to allow them to enter into them. He allowed them.

33 And the demons went out of the man, and entered into the swine, and the herd threw themselves down the steep slope into the lake, and was drowned.

34 And when the shepherds saw what had happened, they ran, and told the story in the city and in the villages.

35 And they went out to see what had happened; and when they came to Jesus, they found a man out of whom demons had come out, sitting at the feet of Jesus, clothed and in his right mind; And they were horrified.

36 And those who saw told them how the demoniac was healed.

37 And all the people of the Gadarene region besought him to depart from them, because they were seized with great fear. He got into the boat and returned.

38 And the man out of whom the demons came out asked Him to be with Him. But Jesus sent him away, saying,

39 Go back to your house, and tell me what God has done for you. He went and preached throughout the city what Jesus had done for him.
