4Because he had frequently been prisoned in chains and iron bands, and the chains had been parted and the bands broken by him: and no man was strong enough to make him quiet.
5And all the time, by day and by night, in the place of the dead, and in the mountains, he was crying out and cutting himself with stones.
6And when he saw Jesus from far off, he went quickly to him and gave him worship;
7And crying out with a loud voice he said, What have I to do with you, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? In God's name, do not be cruel to me.
8For Jesus had said to him, Come out of the man, you unclean spirit.
9And Jesus said, What is your name? And he made answer, My name is Legion, because there are a great number of us.
10And he made strong prayers to him not to send them away out of the country.
