Because that he had been often bound with fetters and chains, and the chains had been plucked asunder by him, and the fetters broken in pieces: neither could any man tame him.

Verse 4 is found in chapter 5 of Mark. The deliverance of the possessed man in Gentile territory shows that Jesus’ authority crosses religious and geographic boundaries.

Denn er war oft mit Fesseln und Ketten gebunden gewesen, und hatte die Ketten abgerissen und die Fesseln zerrieben; und niemand konnte ihn zähmen.
Porque muchas veces había sido atado con grillos y cadenas, mas las cadenas habían sido hechas pedazos por Él, y los grillos desmenuzados; y nadie le podía domar.
Muchas veces lo habían atado con grilletes y cadenas, pero él había roto las cadenas y destrozado los grilletes. Nadie tenía fuerza para dominarlo.
Car souvent il avait eu les fers aux pieds et avait été lié de chaînes, mais il avait rompu les chaînes et brisé les fers, et personne n'avait la force de le dompter.
Perciocchè spesso era stato attaccato con ceppi, e con catene; e le catene eran da lui state rotte, e i ceppi spezzati, e niuno potea domarlo.
Porque, tendo sido muitas vezes preso com grilhões e cadeias, as cadeias foram por ele feitas em pedaços, e os grilhões em migalhas, e ninguém o podia amansar.
因為人屢次用腳鐐和鐵鏈捆鎖他,鐵鏈被他掙斷,腳鐐也被他弄碎了,總沒有人能制伏他。
