New Testament

Luke 8:31-36 Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)

31. And they begged Him not to banish them to the abyss.

32. A large herd of pigs was there, feeding on the hillside. The demons begged Him to permit them to enter the pigs, and He gave them permission.

33. The demons came out of the man and entered the pigs, and the herd rushed down the steep bank into the lake and drowned.

34. When the men who tended them saw what had happened, they ran off and reported it in the town and in the countryside.

35. Then people went out to see what had happened. They came to Jesus and found the man the demons had departed from, sitting at Jesus’ feet, dressed and in his right mind. And they were afraid.

36. Meanwhile, the eyewitnesses reported to them how the demon-possessed man was delivered.
