Matthew 8:23–34

²³And he went on board ship and his disciples followed him; ²⁴and behold, the water became very agitated on the sea, so that the ship was covered by the waves; but he slept. ²⁵And the disciples came and awoke him, saying, Lord save: we perish. ²⁶And he says to them, Why are ye fearful, O ye of little faith? Then, having arisen, he rebuked the winds and the sea, and there was a great calm. ²⁷But the men were astonished, saying, What sort of man is this, that even the winds and the sea obey him?

²⁸And there met him, when he came to the other side, to the country of the Gergesenes, two possessed by demons, coming out of the tombs, exceeding dangerous, so that no one was able to pass by that way. ²⁹And behold, they cried out, saying, What have we to do with thee, Son of God? hast thou come here before the time to torment us? ³⁰Now there was, a great way off from them, a herd of many swine feeding; ³¹and the demons besought him, saying, If thou cast us out, send us away into the herd of swine. ³²And he said to them, Go. And they, going out, departed into the herd of swine; and lo, the whole herd of swine rushed down the steep slope into the sea, and died in the waters. ³³But they that fed them fled, and went away into the city and related everything, and what had happened as to those possessed by demons. ³⁴And behold, the whole city went out to meet Jesus; and when they saw him, they begged him to go away out of their coasts.
