Luke 8:30 in Context — Luke 8
28 Ayant vu Jésus, il poussa un cri, se jeta à ses pieds, et dit d’une voix forte: Qu’y a-t-il entre moi et toi, Jésus, Fils du Dieu Très-Haut? Je t’en supplie, ne me tourmente pas.
29 Car Jésus commandait à l’esprit impur de sortir de cet homme, dont il s’était emparé depuis longtemps; on le gardait lié de chaînes et les fers aux pieds, mais il rompait les liens, et il était entraîné par le démon dans les déserts.
30 Jésus lui demanda: Quel est ton nom? Légion, répondit-il. Car plusieurs démons étaient entrés en lui.
31 Et ils priaient instamment Jésus de ne pas leur ordonner d’aller dans l’abîme.
32 Il y avait là, dans la montagne, un grand troupeau de pourceaux qui paissaient. Et les démons supplièrent Jésus de leur permettre d’entrer dans ces pourceaux. Il le leur permit.
