Darby's French Translation

Luc 8:29

Car Jésus avait commandé à l'esprit immonde de sortir de l'homme; car depuis longtemps il s'était saisi de lui, et l'homme avait été lié et gardé dans les chaînes et avec les fers aux pieds; et brisant ses liens, il était emporté par le démon dans les déserts.

La Bible David Martin (1744)
Car [J�sus] commandait � l'esprit immonde de sortir hors de cet homme; parce qu'il l'avait tenu enserr� depuis longtemps, et quoique cet homme f�t li� de cha�nes et gard� dans les fers il brisait ses liens, et �tait emport� par le d�mon dans les d�serts.
La Bible Ostervald (1996)
Car J�sus commandait � l'esprit immonde de sortir de cet homme, dont il s'�tait saisi depuis longtemps; on le liait de cha�nes et on le gardait avec des entraves, mais il rompait ses liens, et il �tait emport� par le d�mon dans les d�serts.
Louis Segond (1910)
Car J�sus commandait � l'esprit impur de sortir de cet homme, dont il s'�tait empar� depuis longtemps; on le gardait li� de cha�nes et les fers aux pieds, mais il rompait les liens, et il �tait entra�n� par le d�mon dans les d�serts.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

For he had commanded the unclean spirit..... That had the rest of the devils under his authority, and power,

to come out of the man; this he had done, either before, or just as he came up to him; :-.

For oftentimes it had caught him; possessed him, and wrought so strongly in him, and with so much fury, that there was no governing him:

and he was kept bound with chains and fetters; attempts were made to bind him, and keep him bound, but in vain: and he brake the bands;

:-.

And was driven of the devil into the wilderness: into some desert and desolate place, where were the tombs and sepulchres of the dead; this was done by the prince of the legion.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

See this passage explained in the Matthew 8:23-34 notes, and Mark 5:1-20 notes.
