28 When he saw Jesus, he (A)cried out and fell down before him and said (B)with a loud voice, “What have you to do with me, Jesus, (C)Son of (D)the Most High God? I beg you, do not torment me.” 29 For he had commanded the unclean spirit to come out of the man. (For many a time it had seized him. He was kept under guard and bound with chains and shackles, but he would break the bonds and be driven by the demon (E)into the desert.) 30 Jesus then asked him, “What is your name?” And he said, (F)“Legion,” for many demons had entered him. 31 And they begged him not to command them to depart into (G)the abyss. 32 Now a large herd of pigs was feeding there on the hillside, and they begged him to let them enter these. So he gave them permission.

28 When he saw Jesus, he cried out and fell at his feet, shouting at the top of his voice, “What do you want with me,(A) Jesus, Son of the Most High God?(B) I beg you, don’t torture me!” 29 For Jesus had commanded the impure spirit to come out of the man. Many times it had seized him, and though he was chained hand and foot and kept under guard, he had broken his chains and had been driven by the demon into solitary places.
30 Jesus asked him, “What is your name?”
“Legion,” he replied, because many demons had gone into him. 31 And they begged Jesus repeatedly not to order them to go into the Abyss.(C)
32 A large herd of pigs was feeding there on the hillside. The demons begged Jesus to let them go into the pigs, and he gave them permission.

7 And (A)crying out with a loud voice, he said, “What have you to do with me, Jesus, (B)Son of (C)the Most High God? (D)I adjure you by God, do not torment me.” 8 For he was saying to him, “Come out of the man, you unclean spirit!” 9 And Jesus asked him, “What is your name?” He replied, “My name is (E)Legion, for we are many.” 10 And he begged him earnestly not to send them out of the country. 11 Now a great herd of pigs was feeding there on the hillside, 12 and they begged him, saying, “Send us to the pigs; let us enter them.” 13 So he gave them permission. And the unclean spirits came out and entered the pigs; and the herd, numbering about two thousand, rushed down the steep bank into the sea and drowned in the sea.

8 And he said to me, “This water flows toward the eastern region and goes down into (A)the Arabah, and enters the sea;[a] when the water flows into (B)the sea, the water will become fresh.[b] 9 And wherever the river goes,[c] every living creature that swarms will live, and there will be very many fish. For this water goes there, that the waters of the sea[d] may become fresh; so everything will live where the river goes. 10 Fishermen will stand beside the sea. From (C)Engedi to (D)Eneglaim it will be a place for the spreading of nets. Its fish will be of very many kinds, like the fish of (E)the Great Sea.[e] 11 But its swamps and marshes will not become fresh; they are to be left for salt. 12 And on the banks, (F)on both sides of the river, there will grow (G)all kinds of trees for food. (H)Their leaves will not wither, nor their fruit fail, (I)but they will bear fresh fruit every month, because the water for them flows from the sanctuary. Their fruit will be for food, and (J)their leaves for healing.”

When it empties into the sea, the salty water there becomes fresh.(B) 9 Swarms of living creatures will live wherever the river flows. There will be large numbers of fish, because this water flows there and makes the salt water fresh; so where the river flows everything will live.(C) 10 Fishermen(D) will stand along the shore; from En Gedi(E) to En Eglaim there will be places for spreading nets.(F) The fish will be of many kinds(G)—like the fish of the Mediterranean Sea.(H) 11 But the swamps and marshes will not become fresh; they will be left for salt.(I) 12 Fruit trees of all kinds will grow on both banks of the river.(J) Their leaves will not wither, nor will their fruit(K) fail.
