Mark 5:12-14

New International Reader's Version

¹² The demons begged Jesus, “Send us among the pigs. Let us go into them.” ¹³ Jesus allowed it. The evil spirits came out of the man and went into the pigs. There were about 2,000 pigs in the herd. The whole herd rushed down the steep bank. They ran into the lake and drowned.

¹⁴ Those who were tending the pigs ran off. They told the people in the town and countryside what had happened. The people went out to see for themselves.
