²⁸^aWhen He came to the other side into the country of the Gadarenes, two men who were ^bdemon-possessed met Him as they were coming out of the tombs. They were so extremely violent that no one could pass by that way.

²⁹And they cried out, saying, “¹^aWhat business do we have with each other, Son of God? Have You come here to torment us before ²the time?”

³⁰Now there was a herd of many swine feeding at a distance from them.

³¹The demons began to entreat Him, saying, “If You are going to cast us out, send us into the herd of swine.”

³²And He said to them, “Go!” And they came out and went into the swine, and the whole herd rushed down the steep bank into the sea and perished in the waters.

³³The herdsmen ran away, and went to the city and reported everything, ¹including what had happened to the ^ademoniacs.

³⁴And behold, the whole city came out to meet Jesus; and when they saw Him, ^athey implored Him to leave their region.
