22. Now on one of those days, he entered into a boat, himself and his disciples, and he said to them, “Let’s go over to the other side of the lake.” So they launched out.
23. But as they sailed, he fell asleep. A wind storm came down on the lake, and they were taking on dangerous amounts of water.
24. They came to him, and awoke him, saying, “Master, master, we are dying!” He awoke, and rebuked the wind and the raging of the water, and they ceased, and it was calm.
25. He said to them, “Where is your faith?” Being afraid they marvelled, saying to one another, “Who is this then, that he commands even the winds and the water, and they obey him?”
26. They arrived at the country of the Gadarenes, which is opposite Galilee.
27. When Yeshua stepped ashore, a certain man out of the city who had demons for a long time met him. He wore no clothes, and didn’t live in a house, but in the tombs.
28. When he saw Yeshua, he cried out, and fell down before him, and with a loud voice said, “What do I have to do with you, Yeshua, you Son of the Most High God? I beg you, don’t torment me!”
29. For Yeshua was commanding the unclean spirit to come out of the man. For the unclean spirit had often seized the man. He was kept under guard, and bound with chains and fetters. Breaking the bonds apart, he was driven by the demon into the desert.
30. Yeshua asked him, “What is your name?”He said, “Legion,” for many demons had entered into him.
31. They begged him that he would not command them to go into the abyss.
32. Now there was there a herd of many pigs feeding on the mountain, and they begged him that he would allow them to enter into those. Then he allowed them.
33. The demons came out of the man, and entered into the pigs, and the herd rushed down the steep bank into the lake, and were drowned.
34. When those who fed them saw what had happened, they fled and told it in the city and in the country.
35. People went out to see what had happened. They came to Yeshua and found the man from whom the demons had gone out, sitting at Yeshua’s feet, clothed and in his right mind; and they were afraid.
