Raw Blame History

General Information:

The information in verses 7 and 8 may be reordered to present the events in the order that they happened, as in the UDB. (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-events)

He cried out

"The unclean spirit cried out"

What do I have to do with you, Jesus, Son of the Most High God?

The unclean spirit asks this question out of fear. This can be written as a statement. Alternate translation: "Leave me alone, Jesus, Son of the Most High God! There is no reason for you to interfere with me." (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-rquestion)

Jesus ... do not torment me

Jesus has the power to torment unclean spirits.

Son of the Most High God

This is an important title for Jesus. (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/guidelines-sonofgodprinciples)

I beg you by God himself

Here the unclean spirit is swearing by God as he makes a request of Jesus. Consider how this type of request is made in your language. Alternate translation: "I beg you before God" or "I swear by God himself and beg you"
