Matthew:8:28-34

*
And when He had come to the other side ,
into the country of the Gergesenes ,
two demon-possessed ones met Him ,
coming out of the tombs ,
very violent ,
so that no one was able to pass through that way .
*
And ,
behold !
They cried out ,
saying ,
What is to us and to You ,
Jesus ,
Son of God ?
Have You come here beforetime to torment us ?
*
And far off from them there was a herd of many pigs feeding .
*
And the demons begged Him ,
saying ,
If You cast us out ,
allow us to go away into the herd of pigs .
*
And He said to them ,
Go !
And coming out ,
these went away into the herd of pigs .
And ,
behold ,
all the herd of pigs rushed down the cliff into the sea ,
and died in the waters .
*
But those who fed them fled ,
and going into the city ,
they told all the things of the ones who had been demon-possessed .
*
And ,
behold ,
all the city went out to meet with Jesus .
And seeing Him ,
they begged that He move away from their borders .
