Luke 8:31 in Context — Luke 8

29 Porque ele havia mandado ao espírito imundo que saísse daquele homem; pois muitas vezes apoderava-se dele. E o mantinham preso com cadeias e grilhões; porém ele quebrava o que lhe prendia, e era conduzido pelo demônio aos desertos.

30 E Jesus lhe perguntou: “Qual é teu nome?” E ele disse: “Legião” (porque muitos demônios tinham entrado nele).

31 E rogavam-lhe que não os mandasse ir para o abismo.

32 E havia ali uma manada de muitos porcos, que pastavam no monte; e rogaram-lhe que lhes concedesse entrar neles; e ele lhes concedeu.

33 Os demônios saíram daquele homem e entraram nos porcos; e a manada se lançou de um precipício no lago e se afogou.
