Matthew 8:24-34
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 8
24And behold, a violent storm developed on the sea, so that the boat was being covered by the waves; but Jesus Himself was asleep. 25And they came to Him and woke Him, saying, 'Save us, Lord; we are perishing!' 26He *said to them, 'Why are you afraid, you men of little faith?' Then He got up and rebuked the winds and the sea, and it became perfectly calm. 27The men were amazed, and said, 'What kind of a man is this, that even the winds and the sea obey Him?'
28And when He came to the other side into the country of the Gadarenes, two demon-possessed men confronted 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, 'What business do You have with us, Son of God? Have You come here to torment us before the time?'
30Now there was a herd of many pigs feeding at a distance from them.
31And the demons begged Him, saying, 'If You are going to cast us out, send us into the herd of pigs.'
32And He said to them, 'Go!' And they came out and went into the pigs; and behold, the whole herd rushed down the steep bank into the sea and drowned in the waters.
33And the herdsmen ran away, and went to the city and reported everything, including what had happened to the demon-possessed men.
34And behold, the whole city came out to meet Jesus; and when they saw Him, they pleaded with Him to leave their region.

24And, behold, there arose a great tempest in the sea, insomuch that the ship was covered with the waves: but he was asleep. 25And his disciples came to him, and awoke him, saying, Lord, save us: we perish. 26And he saith unto them, Why are ye fearful, O ye of little faith? Then he arose, and rebuked the winds and the sea; and there was a great calm. 27But the men marvelled, saying, What manner of man is this, that even the winds and the sea obey him!
28And when he was come to the other side into the country of the Gergesenes, there met him two possessed with devils, coming out of the tombs, exceeding fierce, so that no man might pass by that way.
29And, behold, they cried out, saying, What have we to do with thee, Jesus, thou Son of God? art thou come hither to torment us before the time?
30And there was a good way off from them an herd of many swine feeding.
31So the devils besought him, saying, If thou cast us out, suffer us to go away into the herd of swine.
32And he said unto them, Go. And when they were come out, they went into the herd of swine: and, behold, the whole herd of swine ran violently down a steep place into the sea, and perished in the waters.
33And they that kept them fled, and went their ways into the city, and told every thing, and what was befallen to the possessed of the devils.
34And, behold, the whole city came out to meet Jesus: and when they saw him, they besought him that he would depart out of their coasts.

24Suddenly, a violent storm arose on the sea, so that the boat was being swamped by the waves--but Jesus kept sleeping. 25So the disciples came and woke him up, saying, "Lord, save us! We're going to die! "
28When he had come to the other side, to the region of the Gadarenes, two demon-possessed men met him as they came out of the tombs. They were so violent that no one could pass that way.
29Suddenly they shouted, "What do you have to do with us, Son of God? Have you come here to torment us before the time? "
30A long way off from them, a large herd of pigs was feeding.
31"If you drive us out," the demons begged him, "send us into the herd of pigs."
32"Go! " he told them. So when they had come out, they entered the pigs, and the whole herd rushed down the steep bank into the sea and perished in the water.
33Then the men who tended them fled. They went into the city and reported everything, especially what had happened to those who were demon-possessed.
34At that, the whole town went out to meet Jesus. When they saw him, they begged him to leave their region.
