6. But seeing Jesus from afar off, he ran and did him homage,
7. and crying with a loud voice he says, What have I to do with thee, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I adjure thee by God, torment me not.
8. For he said to him, Come forth, unclean spirit, out of the man.
9. And he asked him, What is thy name? And he says to him, Legion is my name, because we are many.
10. And he besought him much that he would not send them away out of the country.
11. Now there was there just at the mountain a great herd of swine feeding;
12. and they besought him, saying, Send us into the swine that we may enter into them.
13. And Jesus immediately allowed them. And the unclean spirits going out entered into the swine, and the herd rushed down the steep slope, into the sea (about two thousand), and were choked in the sea.
14. And those that were feeding them fled and reported it in the city and in the country. And they went out to see what it was that had taken place.
15. And they come to Jesus, and they see the possessed of demons sitting and clothed and sensible, him that had had the legion: and they were afraid.
16. And they that had seen it related to them how it had happened to the man possessed by demons, and concerning the swine.
