Demons Driven Out by Jesus

They(A) came to the other side of the sea, to the region of the Gerasenes.[a] As soon as he got out of the boat, a man with an unclean(B) spirit(C) came out of the tombs(D) and met him. He lived in the tombs,(E) and no one was able to restrain him anymore—not even with a chain(F) because he often had been bound with shackles and chains, but had torn the chains apart and smashed(G) the shackles. No one was strong enough to subdue(H) him. Night(I) and day among the tombs(J) and on the mountains,(K) he was always crying out and cutting himself with stones.
