For Jesus was commanding the unclean spirit to come out of the man. For the unclean spirit had often seized the man. He was kept under guard and bound with chains and fetters. Breaking the bonds apart, he was driven by the demon into the desert.

ગુજરાતીલૂક ૮:૨૯
કારણ કે ઈસુએ અશુદ્ધ આત્માને તે માણસમાંથી બહાર નીકળવાની આજ્ઞા કરી હતી. એ દુષ્ટાત્મા તે માણસને વારંવાર વળગ્યા કરતો હતો; અને તેઓ તેને સાંકળોથી તથા બેડીઓથી બાંધતા, પણ તે બંધનો તોડી નાખતો અને દુષ્ટાત્મા તેને જંગલમાં લઈ જતો હતો.
हिन्दीलूका ८:२९
क्योंकि वह उस अशुद्ध आत्मा को उस मनुष्य में से निकलने की आज्ञा दे रहा था, इसलिए कि वह उस पर बार बार प्रबल होती थी। और यद्यपि लोग उसे जंजीरों और बेड़ियों से बाँधते थे, तो भी वह बन्धनों को तोड़ डालता था, और दुष्टात्मा उसे जंगल में भगाए फिरती थी।

In context

27When Jesus stepped ashore, a certain man out of the city who had demons for a long time met him. He wore no clothes, and didn’t live in a house, but in the tombs.

28When he saw Jesus, he cried out and fell down before him, and with a loud voice said, “What do I have to do with you, Jesus, you Son of the Most High God? I beg you, don’t torment me!”

29For Jesus was commanding the unclean spirit to come out of the man. For the unclean spirit had often seized the man. He was kept under guard and bound with chains and fetters. Breaking the bonds apart, he was driven by the demon into the desert.

30Jesus asked him, “What is your name?” He said, “Legion,” for many demons had entered into him.

31They begged him that he would not command them to go into the abyss.
