Matthew 8:28-33

281And when He cameG2064 to the otherG4008 sideG4008 into the countryG5561 of the GadarenesG1046, twoG1417 2demon-possessedG1139 men confrontedG5221 Him as they were comingG1831 outG1831 of the tombsG3419. They were so extremelyG3029 violentG5467 that noG3361 oneG5100 couldG2480 passG3928 by that wayG3598.

29And they criedG2896 outG2896, sayingG3004, “34WhatG5101 business do You have with us, SonG5207 of GodG2316? Have You comeG2064 hereG5602 to tormentG928 us beforeG4253 5the timeG2540?”

30NowG1161 there was a herdG34 of manyG4183 pigsG5519 feedingG1006 atG3112 aG3112 distanceG3112 from them.

31And the demonsG1142 beggedG3870 Him, sayingG3004, “IfG1487 You are going to castG1544 us outG1544, sendG649 us into the herdG34 of pigsG5519.”

32And He saidG3004 to them, “GoG5217!” And they cameG1831 outG1831 and wentG565 into the pigsG5519; and beholdG2400, the wholeG3956 herdG34 rushedG3729 downG2596 the steepG2911 bankG2911 into the seaG2281 and 6drownedG599 in the watersG5204.

33And the herdsmenG1006 ranG5343 awayG5343, and wentG565 to the cityG4172 and reportedG518 everythingG3956, 7includingG2532 whatG3588 hadG3588 happenedG3588 to the 8demon-possessedG1139 menG1139.
