Matthew 8:23-34

²³When He got into the boat, His disciples followed Him. 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.
