So He roused Himself and rebuked the wind, and said to the waves, "Silence! Be still!" The wind sank, and a perfect calm set in.

"Why are you so timid?" He asked; "have you still no faith?"

Then they were filled with terror, and began to say to one another, "Who is this, then? For even wind and sea obey Him."

So they arrived at the opposite shore of the Lake, in the country of the Gerasenes.

Καὶ Kai “And”

At once, on His landing, there came from the tombs to meet Him a man possessed by a foul spirit.

Καὶ Kai “And”

This man lived among the tombs, nor could any one now secure him even with a chain;

καὶ kai “And”

for many a time he had been left securely bound in fetters and chains, but afterwards the chains lay torn link from link, and the fetters in fragments, and there was no one strong enough to master him.

And constantly, day and night, he remained among the tombs or on the hills, shrieking, and mangling himself with sharp stones.

And when he saw Jesus in the distance, he ran and threw himself at His feet,

Καὶ Kai “And”καὶ kai “and”

crying out in a loud voice, "What hast Thou to do with me, Jesus, Son of God Most High? In God's name I implore Thee not to torment me."

καὶ kai “And”καὶ kai “and”

Jesus also questioned him. "What is your name?" He said. "Legion," he replied, "for there are a host of us."

And he earnestly entreated Him not to send them away out of the country.

So they besought Jesus. "Send us to the swine," they said, "so that we may enter into them."

καὶ kai “And”

He gave them leave; and the foul spirits came out and entered into the swine, and the herd--about 2,000 in number--rushed headlong down the cliff into the Lake and were drowned in the Lake.

καὶ kai “And”καὶ kai “And”καὶ kai “and”καὶ kai “and”

The swineherds fled, and spread the news in town and country. So the people came to see what it was that had happened;

καὶ kai “And”καὶ kai “and”καὶ kai “and”καὶ kai “And”

and when they came to Jesus, they beheld the demoniac quietly seated, clothed and of sane mind--the man who had had the legion; and they were awe-stricken.

Καὶ Kai “And”καὶ kai “and”καὶ kai “and”καὶ kai “and”καὶ kai “and”

And those who had seen it told them the particulars of what had happened to the demoniac, and all about the swine.

Then they began entreating Him to depart from their district.

As He was embarking, the man who had been possessed asked permission to accompany Him.

Καὶ Kai “And”

But He would not allow it. "Go home to your family," He said, "and report to them all that the Lord has done for you, and the mercy He has shown you."

καὶ kai “And”καὶ kai “and”καὶ kai “and”

So the man departed, and related publicly everywhere in the Ten Towns all that Jesus had done for him; and all were astonished.

when there came one of the Wardens of the Synagogue--he was called Jair--who, on beholding Him, threw himself at His feet,

Καὶ Kai “And”καὶ kai “and”

and besought Him with many entreaties. "My little daughter," he said, "is at the point of death: I pray you come and lay your hands upon her, that she may recover and live."

καὶ kai “and”καὶ kai “and”

And Jesus went with him. And a dense crowd followed Him, and thronged Him on all sides.
