Matthew 8:29-34

29 And lo! they cried, and said [saying], What to us and to thee, Jesus, the Son of God? art thou come hither before the time to torment us?
30 And not far from them was a flock [a flock, or drove,] of many swine pasturing.
31 And the devils prayed him, and said [saying], If thou castest out us from hence, send us into the drove of swine.
32 And he said to them, Go ye. And they went out, and went into the swine; and lo! in a great rush all the drove went headlong into the sea, and they were dead in the waters.
33 And the herders fled away, and came into the city, and told all these things, and of them that had the fiends [and of them that had the devils].
34 And lo! all the city went out to meet Jesus; and when they had seen him, they prayed [him], that he would pass from their coasts.
