005:007 crying out in a loud voice, "What hast Thou to do with me, Jesus, Son of God Most High? In God's name I implore Thee not to torment me."
005:008 For He had said to him, "Foul spirit, come out of the man."
005:009 Jesus also questioned him. "What is your name?"
He said. "Legion," he replied, "for there are a host of us."
005:010 And he earnestly entreated Him not to send them away out
of the country.
005:011 Feeding there, on the mountain slope, was a great herd of swine.
005:012 So they besought Jesus. "Send us to the swine," they said, "so that we may enter into them."
005:013 He gave them leave; and the foul spirits came out and entered into the swine, and the herd—about 2,000 in number— rushed headlong down the cliff into the Lake and were drowned in the Lake.
005:014 The swineherds fled, and spread the news in town and country. So the people came to see what it was that had happened;
005:015 and when they came to Jesus, they beheld the demoniac quietly seated, clothed and of sane mind—the man who had had the legion; and they were awe-stricken.
005:016 And those who had seen it told them the particulars of what had happened to the demoniac, and all about the swine.
