Now there was at some distance from them a large herd of swine seeding: and the devils besought Him,

(now the woman was a Greek, a Syrophenician by nation,) and she besought Him to cast out the demon from her daughter.

And when He was in one of the cities of that country, behold a man full of leprosy: who seeing Jesus, fell prostrate to Him, and besought Him, saying, Lord, if thou wilt, thou canst cleanse me.

And they besought Him that He would not command them to go into the abyss:

but the disciples took him by night, and let him down by the wall, in a basket.

and I was let down by the wall through a window in a basket, and so escaped his hands.

For this I besought the Lord thrice, that it might depart from me.
