28And when he saw Jesus, he cried out, and fell down before him, and with a loud voice said, What have I to do with thee, Jesus, thou Son of the Most High God? I beseech thee, torment me not.

29For he was commanding the unclean spirit to come out from the man. For oftentimes it had seized him: and he was kept under guard, and bound with chains and fetters; and breaking the bands asunder, he was driven of the demon into the deserts.

30And Jesus asked him, What is thy name? And he said, Legion; for many demons were entered into him.

31And they entreated him that he would not command them to depart into the abyss.

32Now there was there a herd of many swine feeding on the mountain: and they entreated him that he would give them leave to enter into them. And he gave them leave.

33And the demons came out from the man, and entered into the swine: and the herd rushed down the steep into the lake, and were drowned.

34And when they that fed them saw what had come to pass, they fled, and told it in the city and in the country.
