and wondered, saying one to another, What man then is this, that he commands the winds and the water and they obey him? 2 [8:26]And they sailed to the country of the Gerasenes, which is opposite to Galilee. [8:27]And as he went out on the land, there met him a certain man from the city who had had demons for a long time; and he wore no clothes, and remained not in a house, but in the tombs. [8:28]And seeing Jesus, he cried out, and worshipped him, and said with a loud voice, What have you to do with me, Jesus, son of the Most High God? I beg of you not to torment me; [8:29]for he had commanded the impure spirit to go out of the man; for it had often seized him; and he had been bound with chains, and confined with fetters; and breaking his bonds he had been driven by the demon into solitary places. [8:30]And Jesus asked him, saying, What is your name? And he said, Legion; because many demons had entered into him. [8:31]And he besought him not to command them to go into the abyss.

[8:37]And all the multitude of the region about the Gerasenes requested him to depart from them, because they were seized with great fear. And entering into the ship, he returned. [8:38]And the man from whom the demons had gone out desired to be with him; but he sent him away, saying, [8:39]Return to your house, and declare how great things God has done for you. And he went away proclaiming in all the city what great things Jesus had done for him. 4 [8:40]And when Jesus returned the multitude received him; for they were all waiting for him. [8:41]And behold, a man by the name of Jairus came; and he was the ruler of a synagogue.
