2. When he had come out of the boat, immediately a man with an unclean spirit met him out of the tombs.
3. He lived in the tombs. Nobody could bind him any more, not even with chains,
4. because he had been often bound with fetters and chains, and the chains had been torn apart by him, and the fetters broken in pieces. Nobody had the strength to tame him.
5. Always, night and day, in the tombs and in the mountains, he was crying out, and cutting himself with stones.
6. When he saw Jesus from afar, he ran and bowed down to him,
7. and crying out with a loud voice, he said, “What have I to do with you, Jesus, you Son of the Most High God? I adjure you by God, don’t torment me.”
8. For he said to him, “Come out of the man, you unclean spirit!”
9. He asked him, “What is your name?” He said to him, “My name is Legion, for we are many.”
10. He begged him much that he would not send them away out of the country.
11. Now on the mountainside there was a great herd of pigs feeding.
12. All the demons begged him, saying, “Send us into the pigs, that we may enter into them.”
