In context
9 and he was questioning him—What is thy name? and he saith to him—Legion, is my name, because we are, many;
10 and he was beseeching him much that he would not send them forth outside the country.
11 Now there was there, near the mountain, a large herd of swine, feeding;
12 and they besought him, saying—Send us into the swine, that, into them, we may enter;
13 and he suffered them. And the impure spirits, going out, entered into the swine, and the herd rushed down the cliff into the sea, about two thousand, and were choked in the sea.
14 And, they who had been feeding them, fled, and bare tidings into the city and into the fields,—and they came to see what it was that had happened.
15 And they come unto Jesus, and view the demonized man, clothed and of sound mind, him who had had the legion,—and they were struck with fear.
