27 And, when he went forth upon the land, there met him a certain man, out of the city, having demons; and, for a considerable time, he had put on no garment, and, in a house, would not abide, but among the tombs.
28 But, seeing Jesus, he cried out aloud, and fell down before him, and, with a loud voice, saidWhat have I in common with thee, O Jesus, Son of God the Most High? I beg of theeDo not torment me!
29 for he was about to charge the impure spirit to come out from the man. For, many times, had it snatched him away; and he used to be bound with chains and fetters, for a safe-guard, and was wont to break in pieces the bonds, and to be driven by the demon into the deserts.
30 And Jesus questioned himWhat name hast thou? And, he, saidLegion! because many demons had entered into him.
31 And they were beseeching him that he would not order them, into the abyss, to depart.
32 Now there was there, a herd of a good many swine, feeding in the mountain; and they besought him, that he would suffer them, into those, to enter; and he suffered them.
33 And the demons, going forth from the man entered into the swine; and the herd rushed down the cliff, into the lake, and were choked.
34 And they who had been feeding them, seeing what had happened, fled, and carried tidings into the city, and into the country-places.
35 And they went forth to see what had happened; and came unto Jesus, and found the man from whom the demons had gone forth, sitting, clothed, and of sound mind, near the feet of Jesus,and they were struck with fear.
