New Testament

Luke 8:32-39 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

32. And in that place, there was a herd of many swine, pasturing on the mountain. And they petitioned him to permit them to enter into them. And he permitted them.

33. Therefore, the demons departed from the man, and they entered into the swine. And the herd rushed violently down a precipice into the lake, and they were drowned.

34. And when those who were pasturing them had seen this, they fled and reported it in the city and the villages.

35. Then they went out to see what was happening, and they came to Jesus. And they found the man, from whom the demons had departed, sitting at his feet, clothed as well as in a sane mind, and they were afraid.

36. Then those who had seen this also reported to them how he had been healed from the legion.

37. And the entire multitude from the region of the Gerasenes pleaded with him to depart from them. For they were seized by a great fear. Then, climbing into the boat, he went back again.

38. And the man from whom the demons had departed pleaded with him, so that he might be with him. But Jesus sent him away, saying,

39. "Return to your house and explain to them what great things God has done for you." And he traveled through the entire city, preaching about the great things that Jesus had done for him.
