When he went aboard the vessel, his disciples followed him. and on a sudden so great a storm arose at sea, that the ship was covered with the waves: but he was asleep. and his disciples came and awaked him, saying, Lord, save us: we are sinking. read more.
and he answer'd, why are you afraid, o incredulous people? then he arose and rebuked the winds and the sea, and there was a great calm. but the crew were all amaz'd; what is this man, said they, that even the winds and the sea obey him?

when they had dismiss'd the people, the bark he was in, set sail, in company with other small barks. at length a violent storm ensued, and the waves beat into the ship, that it began to fill, whilst Jesus was at the stern, asleep on a pillow: upon which they awak'd him, crying out, master, have you so little concern to let us sink? then he rose, read more.
and rebuked the wind, hush, said he, and be still. immediately the wind subsides, and a settled calm ensued. why, said he, are ye so frighted? are ye still so void of faith? and they were exceedingly afraid, and said to one another, who can this be, that even the wind and the sea obey him?

The same day Jesus went on board a vessel with his disciples, and said to them, let us pass over to the other side of the lake: and so they put off to sea. while they were rowing, Jesus fell asleep: when there blew such a storm of wind upon the lake, as fill'd the boat with water, and endanger'd their lives. then they came to wake him, crying, master, master, we are sinking. then he rose up, and rebuked the wind, and the waves: and both subside to a calm. read more.
but to his disciples he said, where is your faith? while they, seiz'd with fear and admiration, said to one another, who can this man be, that he commands even the winds, and the waves, and they obey? Then they arrived at the country of the Gadarenes, which lies opposite to Galilee.

When he was arrived on the other side, in the country of the Gergesenes, two demoniacs met him starting out of the tombs with such fury, it was not safe for any body to pass that way. and they roar'd out, Jesus, thou son of God, what injury have we done you? are you come here to torment us before the time? and there was a considerable herd of swine feeding, at some distance from them. read more.
So the devils entreated him, saying, if you force us out, suffer us to retire into the herd of swine. and Jesus bad them go, accordingly they came out, and went into the herd of swine: and immediately the herd of swine ran furiously down a precipice into the sea, where they were all drown'd. and they that kept them fled away into the town, and told the whole story of what had happen'd to the devils and their demoniacs. whereupon the city went in a body to meet Jesus, and when they saw him they desir'd him to withdraw out of their country.

They arrived then to the other side of the sea, in the country of the Gadarenes. and as soon as Jesus was come out of the ship, he met a demoniack, who came from among the tombs, where he haunted, no man being able to confine him, no not with chains: read more.
for having been often bound with fetters and chains, he had wrench'd his chains, and broke his fetters, so that no body could tame him. night and day he was in the mountains, howling among the tombs, and hacking his flesh with flints. but when he saw Jesus afar off, he ran and prostrated himself before him. and crying with a loud voice, said, "what injury have I done you, Jesus, thou son of the most high God? I adjure thee by God, not to torment me." (for Jesus had said to him, "come out of the man, thou impure spirit.") and Jesus asked him, what is thy name? my name is legion, answered he: for we are many. and he was very importunate with Jesus not to drive them away from that country. now there was a great herd of swine feeding upon the mountain; and all the demons intreated him, saying, "send us to the swine, that we may enter into them." Jesus immediately gave them leave. and the impure spirits quitting the possessed, entred into the swine, and the whole herd, which were about two thousand, ran down a precipice into the sea, and were there stifled. then they that fed the swine fled, and told the news to town and country. and they went out to see what had been done. when they were come to Jesus, and saw him that had been possessed with the legion of demons, sitting in his clothes, and in his right mind, they were afraid. and when the eye-witnesses had related what had pass'd with respect to the demoniack, and to the swine: they intreated him to withdraw from their territories. as he was embarking, the late demoniack desired, that he might be with Jesus. however, Jesus refused him, and said, go home to thy friends, and tell them what great things the Lord hath done for thee, and how he hath had compassion on thee. and he departed, and published in Decapolis, what Jesus had done for him: and all were filled with admiration.

Then they arrived at the country of the Gadarenes, which lies opposite to Galilee. when he was landed, there met him a man, who belong'd to the city Gadara, and had been for a long time possessed by demons. he did not wear any cloaths, nor dwell in any house, but among the tombs. upon seeing Jesus, he set up a great cry, fell down before him, and roar'd out, what business have you with me, Jesus son of the most high God? I beseech you torment me not. read more.
for he had commanded the impure spirit to quit the man, he had so long possessed: who, tho' bound in chains, and fastned with fetters, broke thro' all restraints, and was hurry'd by the demon into the desarts. upon Jesus's saying to him, what is your name? he answer'd, legion, (for many demons were enter'd into him.) and they entreated him not to condemn them to the abyss. but there being a numerous herd of swine feeding on the mountain, they desired he would permit them to enter into the swine, which he granted. accordingly the demons quitted the man, and enter'd into the swine: immediately the herd ran headlong down a precipice into the lake, and were drowned. the keepers seeing this, ran about and spread it, both in town, and country, whence numbers went to see the fact: being come to Jesus, they found the man, who had been dispossess'd of the demons, sitting at Jesus's feet, cloathed, and in his right senses: at which they were much surpriz'd, being inform'd by those that were present, by what means the demoniac had been cured. then the Gadarenes of the adjacent parts unanimously desired him to leave their country: for they were greatly allarm'd. so he embark'd to cross over the lake. now the man, who had been dispossess'd, begg'd to take him with him. but Jesus dismissed him, saying, go home, and relate, what great things God hath done for you. whereupon he departed, and published through all the city, what a wonderful deliverance Jesus had wrought for him.
