Luke 8:28-30

International Children’s Bible

²⁸ When he saw Jesus, he cried out and fell down before him. The man said with a loud voice, “What do you want with me, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? Please don’t punish me!” ²⁹ He said this because Jesus had commanded the evil spirit to come out of him. Many times it had taken hold of him. He had been kept under guard and chained hand and foot. But he had broken his chains and had been driven by the demon out into the desert.

³⁰ Jesus asked him, “What is your name?”

The man answered, “Legion.”^[a] (He said his name was “Legion” because many demons were in him.)
