Mark 5:2-8 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

2. When He got out of the boat, immediately a man from the tombs with an unclean spirit met Him,

3. and he had his dwelling among the tombs. And no one was able to bind him anymore, even with a chain;

4. because he had often been bound with shackles and chains, and the chains had been torn apart by him and the shackles broken in pieces, and no one was strong enough to subdue him.

5. Constantly, night and day, he was screaming among the tombs and in the mountains, and gashing himself with stones.

6. Seeing Jesus from a distance, he ran up and bowed down before Him;

7. and shouting with a loud voice, he said, "What business do we have with each other, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I implore You by God, do not torment me!"

8. For He had been saying to him, "Come out of the man, you unclean spirit!"
