Luke 8:34-36
New English Translation
34 When[a] the herdsmen saw what had happened, they ran off and spread the news[b] in the town[c] and countryside. 35 So[d] the people went out to see what had happened, and they came to Jesus. They[e] found the man from whom the demons had gone out, sitting at Jesus’ feet, clothed and in his right mind, and they were afraid. 36 Those[f] who had seen it told them how the man who had been demon-possessed had been healed.[g]
