And he began to implore Him earnestly not to send them out of the country.Now there was a large herd of swine feeding nearby on the mountain.The demons implored Him, saying, "Send us into the swine so that we may enter them."Jesus gave them permission. And coming out, the unclean spirits entered the swine; and the herd rushed down the steep bank into the sea, about two thousand of them; and they were drowned in the sea.Their herdsmen ran away and reported it in the city and in the country. And the people came to see what it was that had happened.When He got out of athe boat, immediately a man from the tombs bwith an unclean spirit met Him,and he had his dwelling among the tombs. And no one was able to bind him anymore, even with a chain;because he had often been bound with shackles and chains, and the chains had been torn apart by him and the shackles broken in pieces, and no one was strong enough to subdue him.Constantly, night and day, he was screaming among the tombs and in the mountains, and gashing himself with stones.Seeing Jesus from a distance, he ran up and bowed down before Him;and shouting with a loud voice, he said, "aWhat business do we have with each other, Jesus, bSon of cthe Most High God? I implore You by God, do not torment me!"For He had been saying to him, "Come out of the man, you unclean spirit!"And He was asking him, "What is your name?" And he said to Him, "My name is aLegion; for we are many."

And the wind died down and it became perfectly calm.And He said to them, "Why are you afraid? aDo you still have no faith?"They became very much afraid and said to one another, "Who then is this, that even the wind and the sea obey Him?"
