And when he had come to the opposite side, into the country of the Gadarenes, there met him two men, coming out of the tombs, possessed with demons, very fierce, so that no one could pass that way. And behold, they cried out, saying: What have we to do with thee, Jesus, Son of God? Hast thou come hither to torment us before the time? Now there was, at a distance from them, a herd of many swine, feeding. read more.
And the demons besought him, saying: If thou cast us out, permit us to go away into the herd of swine. And he said to them: Go. And when they had come out, they went away into the herd of swine. And behold, the whole herd of swine rushed down a steep place into the sea, and perished in the waters. And those who fed them fled, and went into the city, and told every thing, and what had happened to those who had been possessed with the demons. And, behold, all the city came out to meet Jesus. And when they saw him, they besought him to depart out of their borders.

And when he had come out of the ship, immediately there met him from the tombs a man with an unclean spirit, who had his dwelling among the tombs; and no one could keep him bound even with chains; because he had often been bound with fetters and chains, and the chains had been pulled to pieces by him, and the fetters had been broken, and no one had strength to subdue him; read more.
and always, night and day, he was in the tombs, and in the mountains, crying out, and cutting himself with stones.

I adjure thee by God, that thou torment me not. For he had said to him: Unclean spirit, come out of the man. And he asked him: What is your name? And he said to him: My name is Legion; for we are many. And he earnestly besought him that he would not send them out of the country. Now a great herd of swine was feeding there near the mountain.

And the unclean spirits came out and entered into the swine; and the herd (they were about two thousand,) rushed down a steep place into the sea, and were strangled in the sea. And those who fed them fled, and told it in the city, and in the country. And they came out to see what had been done; and they came to Jesus and saw the demoniac, who had had the legion, sitting, and clothed, and in his right mind: and they were afraid. And those who had seen it told them how it had happened to the demoniac, and also concerning the swine. And they began to beseech him to depart from their borders.
