Have you come here to torment us before the time?"* ³⁰ Now a long way from them a large herd of pigs was feeding. ³¹ So the demons implored him, saying, "If you are going to expel us, send us into the herd of pigs." ³² And he said to them, "Go!"

I beg you, do not torment me!" ²⁹ For he had commanded the unclean spirit to come out of the man.
