Mark 5:1-13
11They came to the other side of the sea, into the region of the Gerasenes. 2When He got out of 2the boat, immediately a man from the tombs 3with an unclean spirit met Him. 3He lived among the tombs; and no one was able to bind him anymore, not even with a chain, 4because he had often been bound with shackles and chains, and the chains had been torn apart by him and the shackles broken in pieces; and no one was strong enough to subdue him. 5Constantly, night and day, he was screaming among the tombs and in the mountains, and cutting himself with stones. 6Seeing Jesus from a distance, he ran up and bowed down before Him; 7and shouting with a loud voice, he said, “45What business do You have with me, Jesus, 6Son of 7the Most High God? I implore You by God, do not torment me!” 8For He had already been saying to him, “Come out of the man, you unclean spirit!” 9And He was asking him, “What is your name?” And he said to Him, “My name is 8Legion, for we are many.” 10And he begged Him earnestly not to send them out of the region. 11Now there was a large herd of pigs feeding 9nearby on the mountain. 12And the demons begged Him, saying, “Send us into the pigs so that we may enter them.” 13Jesus gave them permission. And coming out, the unclean spirits entered the pigs; and the herd rushed down the steep bank into the sea, about two thousand of them; and they were drowned in the sea.
