Luke 8:29

---

← Luke 8:28	Luke 8:29 (KJV)	Luke 8:30 [words of Jesus] →
When he saw Jesus, he cried out, and fell down before him, and with a loud voice said, What have I to do with thee, Jesus, [thou] Son of God most high? I beseech thee, torment me not.	(For he had commanded the unclean spirit to come out of the man. For oftentimes it had caught him: and he was kept bound with chains and in fetters; and he brake the bands, and was driven of the devil into the wilderness.)	And Jesus asked him, saying, What is thy name? And he said, Legion: because many devils were entered into him.
