Luke 8:28-40

28WhenG1161 the man sawG3708 JesusG2424, he cried outG349 and fell down beforeG4363 HimG846, shouting in a loud voiceG3173G5456G2036, “WhatG5101 do YouG4771 want with meG1473, JesusG2424, SonG5207 ofG3588 theG3588 Most HighG5310 GodG2316? I begG1189 YouG4771 notG3361 to tortureG928 meG1473!” 29ForG1063 Jesus had commandedG3853 theG3588 uncleanG169 spiritG4151 to come outG1831 ofG575 theG3588 manG444. ManyG4183 timesG5550 it had seizedG4884 himG846, andG2532 though he was boundG1195 withG5442 chainsG254 andG2532 shacklesG3976, he had brokenG1284 theG3588 chainsG1199 and been drivenG1643 byG5259 theG3588 demonG1140 intoG1519 solitary placesG2048.

30“WhatG5101 isG1510 yourG4771 nameG3686?” JesusG2424 askedG1905.

“LegionG3003,” he repliedG2036, becauseG3754 manyG4183 demonsG1140 had goneG1525 intoG1519 himG846. 31AndG2532 the demons kept beggingG3870 Jesus notG3361 to orderG2004 themG846 to goG565 intoG1519 theG3588 AbyssG12.

32

ThereG1563 onG1722 theG3588 hillsideG3735 a largeG2425 herdG34 of pigsG5519 wasG1510 feedingG1006. So the demons beggedG3870 Jesus toG2443 letG2010 themG846 enterG1525G1519 the pigs, andG2532 He gave them permissionG2010G846.

33ThenG1161 theG3588 demonsG1140 came outG1831 ofG575 theG3588 manG444 and wentG1525 intoG1519 theG3588 pigsG5519, andG2532 theG3588 herdG34 rushedG3729 downG2596 theG3588 steep bankG2911 intoG1519 theG3588 lakeG3041 andG2532 was drownedG638.

34WhenG1161 thoseG3588 tendingG1006 the pigs sawG3708 whatG3588 had happenedG1096, they ran offG5343 andG2532 reportedG518 this inG1519 theG3588 townG4172 andG2532 countrysideG68. 35So the people went outG1831 to seeG3708 whatG3588 had happenedG1096. They cameG2064 toG4314 JesusG2424 andG2532 foundG2147 theG3588 manG444 whomG3739 theG3588 demonsG1140 had leftG1831G575, sittingG2521 atG3844 JesusG2424’ feetG4228, clothedG2439 andG2532 in his right mindG4993; andG2532 they were afraidG5399. 36MeanwhileG1161, those whoG3588 had seenG3708 it reportedG518G846 howG4459 theG3588 demon-possessed manG1139 had been healedG4982.

37ThenG2532 allG537 theG3588 peopleG4128 of theG3588 regionG4066 of theG3588 GerasenesG1086 askedG2065 Jesus to departG565 fromG575 themG846, becauseG3754 greatG3173 fearG5401 had taken hold of themG4912. SoG1161 HeG846 gotG1684 intoG1519 the boatG4143 and started backG5290.

38

TheG3588 manG435 whomG3739 theG3588 demonsG1140 had leftG1831G575 beggedG1189 to goG1510 withG4862 Jesus. ButG1161 He sent him awayG630G846, sayingG3004, 39“ReturnG5290 homeG1519G4771G3588G3624 andG2532 describeG1334 how muchG3745 GodG2316 has doneG4160 for youG4771.” SoG2532 the man went awayG565 and proclaimedG2784 allG3650 overG2596 theG3588 townG4172 how muchG3745 JesusG2424 had doneG4160 for himG846.

WhenG1722 JesusG2424 returnedG5290, theG3588 crowdG3793 welcomedG588 HimG846, forG1063 they had all beenG1510 waiting forG4328 HimG846.
