Mark 5:1-8 ▼

1 And they came to the other side of the sea, into the country of the Gadarenes.

2 And when He was come out of the ship, immediately there met Him from the tombs,

3 a man with an impure spirit, who kept among the tombs; and no one could bind him, not even with chains:

4 for he had often been bound with fetters and chains, and the chains had been pulled asunder by him, and the fetters broken; and no man could tame him:

5 and he was always night and day upon the hills and among the sepulchres bawling, and gashing himself with stones.

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

7 and crying out with a loud voice said, Jesus thou Son of the most high God, what have I to do with thee? I adjure thee by God, that thou wouldst not torment me:

8 (for He said to him, Thou impure spirit, come out of the man. )
