Matthew 8:30-33

8:30 A ¹  large herd of pigs was feeding some distance from them. 8:31 Then the demons begged him, ²  “If you drive us out, send us into the herd of pigs.” 8:32 And he said, ³  “Go!” So ⁴  they came out and went into the pigs, and the herd rushed down the steep slope into the lake and drowned in the water. 8:33 The ⁵  herdsmen ran off, went into the town, ⁶  and told everything that had happened to the demon-possessed men.
