Matteus 8,34

32 Han sa til dem, “Gå!” Så kom de ut og gikk inn i grisene, og hele flokken styrtet ned den bratte skråningen i sjøen og omkom i vannet.

33 Hyrdene flyktet, gikk inn i byen og rapporterte alt, inkludert hva som hadde skjedd med de demonbesatte mennene.

Da kom hele byen ut for å møte Jesus; og da de så Ham, ba de Ham om å forlate deres område.

Here the Bible tells a story about someone else. Ask yourself what it can say to us today. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
