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. They were so violent that no one could pass that way. ²⁹ “What do you want with us,^(C) Son of God?” they shouted. “Have you come here to torture us before the appointed time?”^(D)
