Porque El mandaba al espíritu inmundo que saliera del hombre, pues muchas veces se había apoderado de él, y estaba atado con cadenas y grillos y bajo guardia; a pesar de todo rompía las ataduras y era impelido por el demonio a los desiertos.
(Porque mandaba al espíritu inmundo que saliese del hombre; pues hacía mucho tiempo que le arrebataba; y le guardaban preso con cadenas y grillos; pero rompiendo las cadenas, era arrastrado por el demonio a los desiertos.)
(Porque mandaba al espíritu inmundo que saliese del hombre, porque ya de muchos tiempos le arrebataba; y le guardaban preso con cadenas y grillos; mas rompiendo las prisiones, era agitado del demonio por los desiertos.)

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
