Luke 8:26-39 And they sail down into the country of the Gergesenes, which is across from Galilee. "

CLV⁽ⁱ⁾ ²⁶ And they sail down into the country of the Gergesenes, which is across from Galilee. " ²⁷ Now at His coming out on the land, there meets Him a certain man out of the city, who had demons, and for a considerable time puts on no cloak, and remained in no house, but in the tombs." ²⁸ Now, perceiving Jesus and crying out, he prostrates to Him and said in a loud voice, "What is it to me and to Thee, Jesus, Son of God Most High! I beseech Thee, Thou shouldst not be tormenting me." ²⁹ For He charged the unclean spirit to be coming out from the man; for many times it had gripped him, and he was bound, being guarded with chains and fetters, and, bursting through the bonds, he was driven by the demon into the wilderness." ³⁰ Now Jesus inquires of him, saying, "What is your name?Now he said, "Legion,for many demons entered into him." ³¹ And they entreated Him that He should not enjoin them to be coming away into the submerged chaos. ³² Now a considerable herd of hogs was there, grazing on the mountain, and they entreat Him that He should permit them to be entering into those. And He permits them." ³³ Now the demons, coming out from the man, entered into the hogs, and the herd rushes down the precipice into the lake and was smothered." ³⁴ Now the graziers, perceiving what has occurred, fled and report it in the city and in the fields." ³⁵ Now thy came out to perceive what has occurred, and they came to Jesus and found the man from whom the demons came out, garmented and sane, sitting at the feet of Jesus, and they were afraid." ³⁶ Yet those also who are perceiving how the demoniac was saved, report to them." ³⁷ And the entire multitude of the country about the Gergesenes asks Him to be coming away from them, for they were pressed by a great fear." ³⁸ Now He, stepping into the ship, returns. Now the man from whom the demons had come out besought Him to be with Him, yet Jesus dismisses him, saying, ³⁹ Return to your home and relate how much God does for you.And he came away, down the whole city, heralding how much Jesus does for him."
