28 And when He came to the other side, to the region of the Gergesenes, [there] met Him two demon-possessed [men], coming out of the tombs; exceedingly violent, so that no one was able to pass by that way.

29 And suddenly they cried out, saying, "What have we to do with You, Jesus, Son of God? Have You come here to torment us before the time?"

30 Now there was far off from them a herd of many swine feeding.

31 So the demons implored Him, saying, "If You cast us out, permit us to go off into the herd of swine."

32 And He said to them, "Go."So they came out, and went off into the herd of swine. And behold, the whole herd of swine rushed violently down the steep bank into the sea, and died in the waters.

33 Then those who tended them fled; and going off into the city, they reported everything, including what had happened to the demon-possessed [men].

34 And behold, the whole city came out to meet Jesus. And seeing Him, they implored Him that He might go away from their region.
