1 On the other side of the sea, they arrived in the region of the Gerasenes [Gadarenes].

2 As soon as Jesus got out of the boat, He was met by a man with an unclean (impure) spirit {pneumati}, who was coming from the tombs.

3 This man had been living in the tombs and could no longer be restrained, even with chains.

4 Though he was often bound with chains and shackles, he had broken the chains and shattered the shackles. Now there was no one with the strength to subdue him.

5 Night and day in the tombs and in the mountains he kept crying out and cutting himself with stones.

6 When the man saw Jesus (YHWH saves) from a distance, he ran and fell on his knees before Him.

7 And he shouted in a loud voice, “What do You want with me, Jesus (YHWH saves), Son of the Most High God {Theou}? I beg You before God {Theon} not to torture me!

8 For Jesus had already declared, “Come out of this man, you unclean (impure) spirit {pneuma}!
