Luke 8:22-39

221NowG1161 on oneG1520 of those daysG2250 2Jesus and His disciplesG3101 gotG1684 into a boatG4143, and He saidG3004 to them, “Let’s crossG1330 overG1330 to the otherG4008 sideG4008 of 3the lakeG3041.” SoG2532 they launchedG321 outG321. 23But as they were sailingG4126 along He fellG879 asleepG879; and a fierceG2978 galeG2978 of windG417 descendedG2597 on 4the lakeG3041, and they began to be swampedG4845 and to beG2793 inG2793 dangerG2793. 24They cameG4334 upG4334 toG4334 Jesus and wokeG1326 Him, sayingG3004, “5MasterG1988, MasterG1988, we are perishingG622!” And He gotG1326 upG1326 and 6rebukedG2008 the windG417 and the surgingG2830 7wavesG2830, and they stoppedG3973, and 8it becameG1096 calmG1055. 25And He saidG3004 to them, “WhereG4226 is your faithG4102?” But they wereG5399 fearfulG5399 and amazedG2296, sayingG3004 to oneG240 anotherG240, “WhoG5101 thenG686 is thisG3778, that He commandsG2004 evenG2532 the windsG417 and the waterG5204, and they obeyG5219 Him?”

269ThenG2532 they sailedG2668 to the countryG5561 of the GerasenesG1086, whichG3748 is oppositeG495 GalileeG1056. 27And when He steppedG1831 outG1831 ontoG1909 the landG1093, a manG435 from the cityG4172 metG5221 Him who was possessedG2192 with demonsG1140; and he had not putG1746 on clothingG2440 for a longG2425 timeG5550 and was not livingG3306 in a houseG3614, but amongG1722 the tombsG3418. 28And seeingG3708 JesusG2424, he criedG349 outG349 and fellG4363 downG4363 beforeG4363 Him, and saidG3004 with a loudG3173 voiceG5456, “1011WhatG5101 business do You have with me, JesusG2424, SonG5207 of 12the MostG5310 HighG5310 GodG2316? I begG1189 You, do not tormentG928 me!” 29For He had already commandedG3853 the uncleanG169 spiritG4151 to comeG1831 outG1831 of the manG444. For it had seizedG4884 him manyG4183 timesG5550; and he was boundG1195 with chainsG254 and shacklesG3976 and keptG5442 underG5442 guardG5442, and yet he would breakG1284 the restraintsG1199 and be drivenG1643 by the demonG1140 into the desertG2048. 30And JesusG2424 askedG1905 him, “WhatG5101 is your nameG3686?” And he saidG3004, “13LegionG3003”; becauseG3754 manyG4183 demonsG1140 had enteredG1525 him. 31And they were beggingG3870 Him not to commandG2004 them to goG565 awayG565 into 14the abyssG12.

32NowG1161 there was a herdG34 of manyG2425 pigsG5519 feedingG1006 thereG1563 on the mountainG3735; and the demons beggedG3870 Him to permitG2010 them to enterG1525 15the pigs. And He gaveG2010 them permissionG2010. 33And the demonsG1140 cameG1831 outG1831 of the manG444 and enteredG1525 the pigsG5519; and the herdG34 rushedG3729 downG2596 the steepG2911 bankG2911 into 16the lakeG3041 and was drownedG638.

34NowG1161 when the herdsmenG1006 sawG3708 what had happenedG1096, they ranG5343 awayG5343 and reportedG518 everything in the cityG4172, and in the countryG68. 35And the people cameG1831 outG1831 to seeG3708 what had happenedG1096; and they cameG2064 to JesusG2424 and foundG2147 the manG444 from whomG3739 the demonsG1140 had goneG1831 outG1831, sittingG2521 downG2521 17at the feetG4228 of JesusG2424, clothedG2439 and in his rightG4993 mindG4993; and they becameG5399 frightenedG5399. 36ThoseG3588 who had seenG3708 everything reportedG518 to them howG4459 the man who had been 18demon-possessedG1139 had been 19madeG4982 wellG4982. 37And allG537 the 20peopleG4128 of the territoryG4066 of the GerasenesG1086 andG4066 theG4066 surroundingG4066 regionG4066 askedG2065 Him to leaveG565 them, becauseG3754 they were overwhelmedG4912 by greatG3173 fearG5401; and He gotG1684 into a boatG4143 and returnedG5290. 3821But the manG435 from whomG3739 the demonsG1140 had goneG1831 outG1831 was beggingG1189 Him that he might 22accompanyG1510G4862 Him; but Jesus sentG630 him awayG630, sayingG3004, 39“ReturnG5290 to your homeG3624 and describeG1334 whatG3745 greatG3745 thingsG3745 GodG2316 has doneG4160 for you.” SoG2532 he wentG565 awayG565, proclaimingG2784 throughoutG2596G3650 the cityG4172 whatG3745 greatG3745 thingsG3745 JesusG2424 had doneG4160 for him.
