So, leaving the crowd behind, they took him with them just as he was in the boat; and the other boats were with him.

"Where is your faith?" he asked them, In their terror they were filled with amazement, and said to one another, "Who is this who commands even the winds and the sea, and they obey him?" Then they put in at the country of Gadarenes, which is across from Galilee.


When he arrived on the other side, in the country of the Gadarenes, he was met by two demoniacs who were coming out of the tombs. They were so violently fierce that no one dared pass along that road. "You Son of God," they shouted, "what have you to do with us? Are you come to torment us before the time?" Now there was, at some distance from them, a herd of many swine feeding; read more.
and the demons began entreating him. "If you are driving us out," they said, "send us into the herd of swine." He answered, "Go!" So they came out of the men, and went into the swine, and behold! the entire herd rushed headlong down from the cliff into the sea, and perished in the water. The swineherds fled. They went away into the city and told all about it, and what had befallen the demoniacs. At once all the citizens came out to meet Jesus; and when they had seen him, they begged him to move away from their country.

Then they came to the country of the Gadarenes, on the opposite side of the sea; and he had no sooner stepped out of the boat, than a man out of the tombs came to meet him, a man with an unclean spirit, who lived among the tombs. read more.
Not even with a chain could any man bind him, for he had been bound with fetters and chains again and again, and had snapped the chains, and broken the fetters; and there was no one strong enough to master him. And always, night and day, he remained among the tombs and in the mountains, shrieking and gashing himself with stones. As he caught sight of Jesus from afar, he ran and knelt before him, and with a shriek he cried out in a loud voice. "Jesus, son of God most high, what business have you with me? I adjure you by God, torment me not!" For Jesus was saying, "Foul spirit, come out of the man." He continued asking him, "What is your mane?" "Legion is my name, for we are many." Over and over he continued to beg Jesus not to send them away out of the country. Now there was on the hillside a great drove of swine feeding. So the spirits begged him, saying, "Send us into the swine, that we may enter into them." And he gave them leave. And out came the foul spirits and entered the swine; and the drove rushed down from the steep into the sea, in number about two thousand, and were choked in the sea. On this the swineherds ran away and spread the news in town and country. So the people went to see what had happened. When they got to Jesus they found the demoniac sitting there clothed and in his right mind??he man who had had the "Legion"??nd they were awestruck. And those who had been eye-witnesses told them what had happened to the demoniac and to the swine. Then they began to beg Jesus to depart from their district. As he was getting into the boat the man who had been demon-possessed kept begging to go with him; but he said, "Go home to your own people, and tell them what great things God has done for you, and has had mercy upon you." So he went and began to publish abroad in the District of the Ten Towns all that Jesus had done for him; and every one was astonished and all men marveled.

Then they put in at the country of Gadarenes, which is across from Galilee. When he landed here he was met by a certain townsman who was possessed by demons. For a long time he had worn no clothes and nor lived in any house, but in tombs. When he saw Jesus he cried out, and fell down before him, and in a loud voice exclaimed. "What have we to do with you, Jesus, you son of God Most High? I implore you to torment me not!" read more.
For Jesus was already commanding the unclean spirit to come out of the man. For many times it had seized him and held him, and they again and again kept him under guard, and put him in chains and fetters. But he would break his bonds asunder, as he was driven by the demon in to the desert. So Jesus asked him, "What is your name?" And he answered, "Legion" (for many demons had entered into him). So they besought Jesus not to command them to go away into the abyss. Now there was a great herd of swine feeding on the hillside, and the demons begged him to give them leave to enter them. He gave them leave. The demons came out of the man, and entered into the swine; the herd rushed violently down over the cliff into the lake. And those who saw what had happened fled and reported it in the town and the villages. Then the people came out to see what had happened, and came to Jesus, and found the man out of whom the demons had gone sitting clothed and in his right mind, at the feet of Jesus. And they were terrified. Then those who had seen it told them how the demon-possessed man had been saved. And the whole populace of Gadarenes and the surrounding territory besought Jesus to go away from them; for they were terror-stricken. So he entered a boat and returned. But the man out of whom the demons had gone kept begging him that he might be with him. But Jesus sent him away saying, "Return to your home, and tell them all that God has done for you." So he went away and throughout the whole city he published how much Jesus had done for him.
