← Luke 8:29	Luke 8:30 (KJV) [words of Jesus]	Luke 8:31 →
(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.	And they besought him that he would not command them to go out into the deep.
