New Testament
Matthew 8:28-34
Two Demon-Possessed Men and a Herd of Pigs
28When he arrived at the other side, in the region of the Gergesenes, two demon-possessed men coming from the tombs met him there. They were very dangerous, so that nobody could pass that way. 29Suddenly they cried out, “What do we have to do with you, Son of God? Have you come here to torment us before the time?” 30There was a large herd of pigs feeding some distance away from them. 31The demons begged him, “If you drive us out, send us into the herd of pigs.”
32He told them, “Go!”
So the demons came out of the men and went into the pigs. Immediately the whole herd of pigs rushed down the steep bank into the sea and drowned in the water. 33Those who were feeding the pigs fled and went into the town. They reported everything, including what had happened to the demon-possessed men. 34Then the entire town came out to meet Jesus. When they saw him, they begged him to leave their region.
