Luke 8:27-39
27And as he got out [of the ship] on the land, a certain man out of the city met him, who had demons a long time, and put on no clothes, and did not abide in a house, but in the tombs.
28But seeing Jesus, he cried out, and fell down before him, and with a loud voice said, What have I to do with thee, Jesus Son of the Most High 1God? I beseech thee torment me not.
29For he had commanded the unclean spirit to go out from the man. For very often it had seized him; and he had been bound, kept with chains and fetters; and breaking the bonds he was driven by the demon into the deserts.
30And Jesus asked him saying, What is thy name? And he said, Legion: for many demons had entered into him.
31And they besought him that he would not command them to go away into the bottomless pit.
32And there was there a herd of many swine feeding on the mountain, and they besought him that he would suffer them to enter into those; and he suffered them.
33And the demons, going out from the man, entered into the swine, and the herd rushed down the precipice into the lake, and were choked.
34But they that fed [them], seeing what had happened, fled, and told [it] to the city and to the country.
35And they went out to see what had happened, and came to Jesus, and found the man from whom the demons had gone out, sitting, clothed and sensible, at the feet of Jesus. And they were afraid.
36And they also who had seen it told them how the possessed man had been healed.
37And all the multitude of the surrounding country of the Gadarenes asked him to depart from them, for they were possessed with great fear; and he, entering into the ship, returned.
38But the man out of whom the demons had gone besought him that he might be with him. But he sent him away, saying,
39Return to thine house and relate how great things 2God has done for thee. And he went away through the whole city, publishing how great things Jesus had done for him.
