And he asked him, What is thy name? And he answered, saying, My name is Legion for we are many. (because many devils were entered into him.) And he besought him much that he would not send them away out of the country: Luke viil. 31. that he would not command them to go out into the deep. Mark v. 11. Now there was there Matt. viii. 30. a good way off from them, Mark v. 11. Mark v. 12. Matt. viii. 31. nigh unto the mountains, a great herd of swine, feeding. And all the devils besought him, saying, If thou cast us out, suffer us to go away into the herd of swine. Mark v. 12. send us into the swine, that we may enter into them. Mark v. 13. And forthwith Jesus gave them leave. And Matt. viii. 32. said unto them, Go. Mark v. 13. And the unclean spirits went out, and entered into the swine: and the herd ran violently down a steep place into the sea, (they were about two thousand ;) and were choked in the sea; Matt. viii. 32. and perished in the waters. Mark v. 14. And they that fed the swine fled, and told it in the city and in the country; Matt. viii. 33. and what was befallen to the possessed of the devils. Matt. viii. 34. And behold, the whole city came out to meet Jesus; g Mark v. 1. And they went out to see what it was that was Mark v. 14. done. And they come to Jesus, and see him that was Mark v. 15. possessed with the devil, and had the legion, sit ting, and clothed, and in his right mind: at the feet of Jesus, and they were afraid. Luke viii. 35 Mark v. 15. And they that saw it told them how it befel to Mark v. 16. him that was possessed with the devil, and also concerning the swine. And Mark v. 17. Then the whole multitude of the country of the Luke viii, 37. Gadarenes round about besought him to depart from them; they began to pray him to depart out of their Mark v. 17. coasts: for they were taken with great fear. And he Luke viii. 37. went up into the ship, and returned back again. And when he was come into the ship, he that Mark v. 18. had been possessed with the devil prayed him that he might be with him. Howbeit Jesus suffered him not, but Jesus sent him away, Mark v. 19. Luke viii. 38. but saith unto him, Go home to thy friends, and Mark v. 19. tell them how great things the Lord hath done for thee, and hath had compassion on thee. And he departed, and began to publish in De- Mark v. 20. capolis, and published throughout the whole city, Luke viii. 39. how great things Jesus had done for him; and all Mark v. 20. men did marvel.
