Mark 5:15-20 And they are progressively (or: one after another) coming toward Jesus, and continue intently looking at the "demoniac" (the one that had been constantly affected or tormented by an animistic influence, or "demons") – the one that had been having (holding; possessing) "the legion to troops , , a Roman regiment of" – now continuing sitting clothed and being continuously sensible, orderly and cooperative (sane and of sound mind). And they became afraid.

JMNT⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁵ And they are progressively (or: one after another) coming toward Jesus, and continue intently looking at the "demoniac" (the one that [had been] constantly affected or tormented by an animistic influence, or "demons") – the one that had been having (holding; possessing) "the legion [a Roman regiment of 4,000 to 6,000 troops]" – now continuing sitting clothed and being continuously sensible, orderly and cooperative (sane and of sound mind). And they became afraid. ¹⁶ Then those having seen [it] thoroughly related to them how it happened to the "demoniac," and about the young swine (hogs). ¹⁷ So they at once began to be repeatedly entreating Him (calling Him alongside and begging Him) to go away from their district (bounded area or region). ¹⁸ And during His stepping into the boat, the "demoniac" kept on entreating Him (requesting Him to be a paraclete), at His side, to the end that he might continue being with Him. ¹⁹ But He did not let him (or: did not release him from [his area]; did not allow him; or: And He did not abandon him). Instead (or: Nevertheless) He is then saying to him, "Be going away (or: Progressively lead the way) into your home (your house, or, household), toward those of your area and association, and fully report back to them (or: thoroughly tell them the news and the story of) how much the Lord [= Christ, or, Yahweh; D reads: God] has done for (to; in) you, and that He mercied you (acted in merciful compassion to you)." ²⁰ So he went away and started (or: goes off and begins) to repeatedly herald a public proclamation within the Decapolis [a league of ten cities] how much (or: as many things as) Jesus did for (to; in) him, and everyone continued being amazed (or: all began expressing wonder and astonishment).
