Matthew 8:28-30
Disciples’ Literal New Testament
Demons Recognize Jesus As The Son of God, And Submit To His Authority Over Them
28 And He having come to the other side, to the country of the Gadarenes, two men being demon-possessed met Him, coming out of the tombs. They were very violent[a], so that no one was strong-enough to pass through that way. 29 And behold— they cried-out, saying, “What do we have to do with You[b], Son of God? Did You come here to torment us before the time?” 30 Now there was a herd of many pigs feeding far away from them.

Jesus Restores Two Demon-Possessed Men(A)
28 When he arrived at the other side in the region of the Gadarenes,[a] two demon-possessed(B) men coming from the tombs met him.
