Mark 5:1-10

21st Century King James Version

5 And they came over unto the other side of the sea, into the country of the Gadarenes.

² And when He had come out of the boat, immediately there met Him from out of the tombs a man with an unclean spirit,

³ who had his dwelling among the tombs. And no man could bind him, no, not even with chains,

⁴ because he had been often bound with fetters and chains, and the chains had been rent asunder by him and the fetters broken in pieces; neither could any man tame him.

⁵ And always, night and day, he was in the mountains and in the tombs, crying out and cutting himself with stones.

⁶ But when he saw Jesus afar off, he ran and worshiped Him,

⁷ and cried with a loud voice, and said, “What have I to do with Thee, Jesus, Thou Son of the Most High God? I adjure Thee by God that Thou torment me not!”

⁸ For He had said unto him, “Come out of the man, thou unclean spirit.”

⁹ And Jesus asked him, “What is thy name?” And he answered, saying, “My name is Legion, for we are many.”

¹⁰ And he besought Him much that He would not send them away out of the country.
