As a result, that person’s last condition is worse than the first.”

When he saw Jesus, he cried out, fell down before him, and said in a loud voice,“ What do you have to do with me, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I beg you, don’t torment me!”For he had commanded the unclean spirit to come out of the man. Many times it had seized him, and though he was guarded, bound by chains and shackles, he would snap the restraints and be driven by the demon into deserted places.“ What is your name?” Jesus asked him.“ Legion,” he said, because many demons had entered him.And they begged him not to banish them to the abyss.A large herd of pigs was there, feeding on the hillside. The demons begged him to permit them to enter the pigs, and he gave them permission.

Look, the days are coming— this is the declaration of the Lord GOD— when I will send a famine through the land: not a famine of bread or a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the LORD.People will stagger from sea to sea and roam from north to east seeking the word of the LORD, but they will not find it.In that day the beautiful young women, the young men also, will faint from thirst.

I will open rivers on the barren heights, and springs in the middle of the plains. I will turn the desert into a pool and dry land into springs.

Suddenly they shouted,“ What do you have to do with us, Son of God? Have you come here to torment us before the time?”

And he cried out with a loud voice,“ What do you have to do with me, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I beg you before God, don’t torment me!”For he had told him,“ Come out of the man, you unclean spirit!”“ What is your name?” he asked him.“ My name is Legion,” he answered him,“ because we are many.”And he begged him earnestly not to send them out of the region.A large herd of pigs was there, feeding on the hillside.The demons begged him,“ Send us to the pigs, so that we may enter them.”So he gave them permission, and the unclean spirits came out and entered the pigs. The herd of about two thousand rushed down the steep bank into the sea and drowned there.

Then the lame will leap like a deer, and the tongue of the mute will sing for joy, for water will gush in the wilderness, and streams in the desert;the parched ground will become a pool, and the thirsty land, springs. In the haunt of jackals, in their lairs, there will be grass, reeds, and papyrus.

He said to me,“ This water flows out to the eastern region and goes down to the Arabah. When it enters the sea, the sea of foul water, the water of the sea becomes fresh.Every kind of living creature that swarms will live wherever the river flows, and there will be a huge number of fish because this water goes there. Since the water will become fresh, there will be life everywhere the river goes.Fishermen will stand beside it from En-gedi to En-eglaim. These will become places where nets are spread out to dry. Their fish will consist of many different kinds, like the fish of the Mediterranean Sea.Yet its swamps and marshes will not be healed; they will be left for salt.All kinds of trees providing food will grow along both banks of the river. Their leaves will not wither, and their fruit will not fail. Each month they will bear fresh fruit because the water comes from the sanctuary. Their fruit will be used for eating and their leaves for healing.”

God, you are my God; I eagerly seek you. I thirst for you; my body faints for you in a land that is dry, desolate, and without water.
