Luke 8:28-40

28WhenG1161 he sawG3708 JesusG3588G2424, he cried outG349, and fell downG4363 before himG846, andG2532 with a loudG3173 voiceG5456 saidG3004, WhatG5101 have IG1473 to doG2532 with theeG4771, JesusG2424, thou SonG5207 of GodG3588G2316 most highG5310? I beseechG1189 theeG4771, tormentG928 meG1473 notG3361. 29(ForG1063 he had commandedG3853 the uncleanG3588G169 spiritG3588G4151 to come outG1831 ofG575 the manG3588G444. ForG1063 oftentimesG4183G5550 it had caughtG4884 himG846: andG2532 he was keptG5442 boundG1196 with chainsG254 andG2532 in fettersG3976; andG2532 he brakeG1284 the bandsG3588G1199, and was drivenG1643 ofG5259 the devilG3588G1142 intoG1519 the wildernessG3588G2048.) 30AndG1161 JesusG3588G2424 askedG1905 himG846, sayingG3004, WhatG5101 isG1510 thyG4771 nameG3686? AndG1161 he saidG3004, LegionG3003: becauseG3754 manyG4183 devilsG1140 were enteredG1525 intoG1519 himG846. 31AndG2532 they besoughtG3870 himG846 thatG2443 he wouldG2004 notG3361 commandG2004 themG846 to go outG565 intoG1519 the abyssG3588G12. 32AndG1161 there wasG1510 thereG1563 an herdG34 of manyG2425 swineG5519 feedingG1006 onG1722 the mountainG3588G3735: andG2532 they besoughtG3870 himG846 thatG2443 he would sufferG2010 themG846 to enterG1525 intoG1519 themG1565. AndG2532 he sufferedG2010 themG846. 33ThenG1161 wentG1831 the devilsG3588G1140 out ofG575 the manG3588G444, and enteredG1525 intoG1519 the swineG3588G5519: andG2532 the herdG3588G34 ran violentlyG3729 downG2596 a steep placeG3588G2911 intoG1519 the lakeG3588G3041, andG2532 were chokedG638. 34WhenG1161 they that fedG1006 them sawG3708 what was doneG1096, they fledG5343, andG2532 wentG565 and toldG518 it inG1519 the cityG3588G4172 andG2532 inG1519 the countryG3588G68. 35ThenG1161 they went outG1831 to seeG3708 what was doneG1096; andG2532 cameG2064 toG4314 JesusG3588G2424, andG2532 foundG2147 the manG3588G444, out ofG575 whomG3739 the devilsG3588G1140 were departedG1831, sittingG2521 atG3844 the feetG3588G4228 of JesusG3588G2424, clothedG2439, andG2532 in his right mindG4993: andG2532 they were afraidG5399. 36TheyG846 alsoG2532 whichG3588 sawG3708 it toldG518 them by what meansG4459 he that was possessed of the devilsG1139 was healedG4982. 37

ThenG2532 the wholeG537 multitudeG3588G4128 of the countryG4066 of the GadarenesG1046 round aboutG4066 besoughtG2065 himG846 to departG565 fromG575 themG846; forG3754 they were taken withG4912 greatG3173 fearG5401: andG1161 heG846 went upG1684 intoG1519 the shipG3588G4143, and returned back againG5290. 38NowG1161 the manG3588G435 out ofG575 whomG3739 the devilsG3588G1140 wereG1510 departedG1831 besoughtG1189 himG846 that he might be withG4862 himG846: butG1161 JesusG3588G2424 sentG630 himG846 awayG630, sayingG3004, 39ReturnG5290 toG1519 thine ownG4771 houseG3588G3624, andG2532 shewG1334 how great thingsG3745 GodG3588G2316 hath doneG4160 unto theeG4771. AndG2532 he went his wayG565, and publishedG2784 throughoutG2596 the wholeG3650 cityG3588G4172 how great thingsG3745 JesusG3588G2424 had doneG4160 unto himG846. 40AndG1161 it came to pass, thatG1096, whenG1722 JesusG3588G2424 was returnedG5290, the peopleG3588G3793 gladly receivedG588 himG846: forG1063 they wereG1510 allG3956 waitingG4328 for himG846.
