8 New English Bible (New Testament) Passage New Testament in Greek (UBS.Ed.26)

28When he reached the other side, in the country of the Gadarenes, he was met by two men who came out from the tombs; they were possessed by devils, and so violent that no one dared pass that way.The Healing of the Gadarene Demoniacs Mt.8.28-34 (Gergesa) | Mk.5.1-20 | Lk.8.26-39Καὶ ἐλθόντος αὐτοῦ εἰς τὸ πέραν εἰς τὴν χώραν τῶν Γαδαρηνῶν ὑπήντησαν αὐτῷ δύο δαιμονιζόμενοι ἐκ τῶν μνημείων ἐξερχόμενοι, χαλεποὶ λίαν, ὡστε μὴ ἰσχύειν τινὰ παρελθεῖν δ ιὰ τῆς ὁδοῦ ἐκείνης.
29'You son of God,' they shouted, 'what do you want with us? Have you come here to torment us before our time?' καὶ ἰδοὺ ἐκραξαν λέγοντες, Τί ἡμῖν καὶ σοί, υἱὲ τοῦ θεοῦ; ἦλθες ὧδε πρὸ καιροῦ βασανίσαι ἡμᾶς;
30In the distance a large herd of pigs was feeding; ἦν δὲ μακρὰν ἀπ' αὐτῶν ἀγέλη χοίρων πολλῶν βοσκομένη.
31and the devils begged him: 'If you drive us out, send us into that herd of pigs.' οἱ δὲ δαίμονες παρεκάλουν αὐτὸν λέγοντες, Εἰ ἐκβάλλεις ἡμᾶς, ἀπόστειλον ἡμᾶς εἰς τὴν ἀγέλην τῶν χοίρων.
32'Begone', he said. Then they came out and went into the pigs; the whole herd rushed over the edge into the lake, and perished in the water.
 καὶ εἶπεν αὐτοῖς, Ὑπάγετε. οἱ δὲ ἐξελθόντες ἀπῆλθον εἰς τοὺς χοίρους· καὶ ἰδοὺ ὡρμησεν πᾶσα ἡ ἀγέλη κατὰ τοῦ κρημνοῦ εἰς τὴν θάλασσαν, καὶ ἀπέθανον ἐν τοῖς ὑδασιν.
33The men in charge of them took to their heels, and made for the town, where they told the whole story, and what had happened to the madmen. οἱ δὲ βόσκοντες ἐφυγον, καὶ ἀπελθόντες εἰς τὴν πόλιν ἀπήγγειλαν πάντα καὶ τὰ τῶν δαιμονιζομένων.
34Thereupon the whole town came out to meet Jesus; and when they saw him they begged him to leave the district and go. καὶ ἰδοὺ πᾶσα ἡ πόλις ἐξῆλθεν εἰς ὑπάντησιν τῷ Ἰησοῦ, καὶ ἰδόντες αὐτὸν παρεκάλεσαν ὁπως μεταβῇ ἀπὸ τῶν ὁρίων αὐτῶν.
