Lukas 8,38

Jesus
Following Jesus

36 De som hadde sett det, fortalte folket hvordan den besatte mannen var blitt helbredet.

37 Da ba alle folkene i gerasenernes område Jesus om å dra bort fra dem, for de var grepet av stor frykt. Så gikk han i båten og dro bort.

Mannen som demonene hadde forlatt, ba om å få være med ham, men Jesus sendte ham bort og sa:

39 "Vend hjem og fortell hvor mye Gud har gjort for deg." Så gikk mannen av sted og forkynte over hele byen hvor mye Jesus hadde gjort for ham.

40 Da Jesus kom tilbake, tok folkemengden imot ham, for de ventet alle på ham.
