1 I will [a]praise the Lord with my whole heart in the assembly and the congregation of the just.

1 If there arise among you a Prophet or a dreamer of [a]dreams, (and give thee a sign or wonder,
2 And the sign and the wonder, which he hath told thee, come to pass) saying, [b]Let us go after other gods, which thou hast not known, and let us serve them,
3 Thou shalt not hearken unto the words of the prophet, or unto that dreamer of dreams: for the Lord your God [c]proveth you, to know whether you love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul.
4 Ye shall walk after the Lord your God and fear him, and shall keep his commandments, and hearken unto his voice, and ye shall serve him, and cleave unto him.
5 But that Prophet, or that dreamer of dreams, he shall [d]be slain, because he hath spoken to turn you away from the Lord your God (which brought you out of the land of Egypt, and delivered you out of the house of bondage) to thrust thee out of the way, wherein the Lord thy God commanded thee to walk: so shalt thou take the evil away forth of the midst of thee.
28 ¶ (A)[a]And when he was come to the other side into the country of the Gergesenes, there met him two possessed with devils which came out of the graves very fierce, so that no man might go by that way.
29 And behold, they cried out, saying, Jesus the son of God, what have we to do with thee? Art thou come hither to torment us before the time?
30 Now there was [b]afar off from them, a great herd of swine feeding.
31 And the devils besought him, saying, If thou cast us out, suffer us to go into the herd of swine.
32 And he said unto them, Go. So they went out and departed into the herd of swine: and behold, the whole herd of swine ran headlong into the sea, and died in the water.
33 Then the herdmen fled: and when they were come into the city, they told all things, and what was become of them that were possessed with the devils,
34 And behold, all the city came out to meet Jesus: and when they saw him, they besought him to [c]depart out of their coasts.

1 Then he [d]entered into a ship, and passed over, and came into his [e]own city.
