Mark 5 : 1 - 12
Chapter 5
| 1 | Then they came to the other side of the sea, to the country of the Gadarenes.
|
| 2 | And when He had come out of the boat, immediately there met Him out of the tombs a man with an unclean spirit,
|
| 3 | who had his dwelling among the tombs; and no one could bind him, not even with chains,
|
| 4 | because he had often been bound with shackles and chains. And the chains had been pulled apart by him, and the shackles broken in pieces; neither could anyone tame him.
|
| 5 | And always, night and day, he was in the mountains and in the tombs, crying out and cutting himself with stones.
|
| 6 | When he saw Jesus from afar, he ran and worshiped Him.
|
| 7 | And he cried out with a loud voice and said, "What have I to do with You, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I implore You by God that You do not torment me."
|
| 8 | For He said to him, "Come out of the man, unclean spirit!"
|
| 9 | Then He asked him, "What is your name?" And he answered, saying, "My name is Legion; for we are many."
|
| 10 | Also he begged Him earnestly that He would not send them out of the country.
|
| 11 | Now a large herd of swine was feeding there near the mountains.
|
| 12 | So all the demons begged Him, saying, "Send us to the swine, that we may enter them."
