Jesus Heals Two Men with Demons

28 ^aAnd when he came to the other side, to the country of the Gadarenes, ^{▼▼Some manuscripts Gergesenes; some Gerasenes} two ^cdemon-possessed ^{▼▼Greek daimonizomai; also verse 33; elsewhere rendered oppressed by demons} men met him, coming out of the tombs, so fierce that no one could pass that way. 29 And behold, they ^ecried out, “What have you to do with us, ^fO Son of God? Have you come here to torment us ^gbefore the time?” 30 Now a herd of many pigs was feeding at some distance from them. 31 And the demons begged him, saying, “If you cast us out, send us away into the herd of pigs.” 32 And he said to them, “Go.” So they came out and went into the pigs, and behold, the whole herd rushed down the steep bank into the sea and drowned in the waters.
