And the scribes who had come down from Jerusalem said that he was possessed by Beelzebub and drove out demons by the help of the prince of demons.

In the evening, after sunset, they brought to him all who were sick or possessed by demons,

This was because they said, "He is possessed by a foul spirit."

As soon as he got out of the boat, a man possessed by a foul spirit came out of the burial places near by to meet him.

When they came to Jesus and found the demoniac sitting quietly with his clothes on and in his right mind??he same man who had been possessed by Legion??hey were frightened.

As he was getting into the boat, the man who had been possessed begged to be allowed to go with him.

but a woman whose little daughter was possessed by a foul spirit immediately heard about him and came and threw herself at his feet.

One of the crowd answered, "Master, I brought my son to you, for he is possessed by a dumb spirit,

For they all gave of what they had to spare, but she in her want has put in everything she possessed??ll she had to live on."

Now the woman was a Greek, of Syrophoenician birth. And she begged him to drive the demon out of her daughter.

He said to her, "If you can say that, go home; the demon has left your daughter."

And she went home and found the child lying on the bed, and the demon gone.

And he cured many who were sick with various diseases, and drove out many demons, and he would not let the demons speak, because they knew that he was Christ.
