Matthew 8:28-32 ▼

28 When Jesus arrived on the other side in the region of the Gerasenes, two demon-possessed men met him as they were coming out of the tombs. They were so violent that no one could travel on that road.

29 Suddenly, they screamed, |What do you want with us, Son of God? Did you come here to torture us before the proper time?|

30 Now a large herd of pigs was grazing some distance away from them.

31 So the demons began to plead with Jesus, saying, |If you drive us out, send us into that herd of pigs.|

32 He told them, |Go,| and they came out and went into the pigs. Suddenly, the whole herd rushed down the cliff into the sea and drowned in the water.
