Have you come to destroy us? I qknow who you are—the rHoly One of God.” 35 But Jesus rebuked him, saying, “Be ssilent and come out of him!” And when the demon had thrown him down in their midst, he came out of him, having done him no harm. 36 And they were all amazed and said to one another, “What is this word? For with authority and power he commands the unclean spirits, and they come out!” 37 And treports about him went out into every place in the surrounding region.
