|
|
1 |
When He had come
down from the mountain, great multitudes followed Him.
|
|
|
2 |
And behold, a leper
came and worshiped Him, saying,
“Lord,
if You are willing, You can make me clean.”
|
|
3 |
Then Jesus put out
His hand and touched him, saying,
“I
am willing; be cleansed.” Immediately his leprosy was cleansed.
|
|
4 |
And Jesus said to
him,
“See
that you tell no one; but go your way, show yourself to the priest, and
offer the gift that Moses commanded, as a testimony to them.”
|
|
5 |
Now when Jesus had
entered Capernaum, a centurion came to Him, pleading with Him,
|
|
6 |
saying,
“Lord,
my servant is lying at home paralyzed, dreadfully tormented.”
|
|
7 |
And Jesus said to
him,
“I
will come and heal him.” |
|
8 |
The centurion
answered and said,
“Lord, I am not worthy that You should come under my
roof. But only speak a word, and my servant will be healed.
|
|
9 |
For I also am a man
under authority, having soldiers under me. And I say to this one,
‘Go,’
and he goes; and to another,
‘Come,’
and he comes; and to my servant,
‘Do
this,’
and he does it.”
|
|
10 |
When Jesus heard it,
He marveled, and said to those who followed,
“Assuredly,
I say to you, I have not found such great faith, not even in Israel!
|
|
11 |
And I say to you that many will come from east
and west, and sit down with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob in the kingdom of
heaven.
|
|
12 |
But the sons of the kingdom will be cast out
into outer darkness. There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.”
|
|
13 |
Then Jesus said to
the centurion,
“Go
your way; and as you have believed, so let it be done for you.” And his servant was healed
that same hour.
|
|
14 |
Now when Jesus had
come into Peter’s house, He saw his wife’s mother lying sick with a fever.
|
|
15 |
So He touched her
hand, and the fever left her. And she arose and served them.
|
|
16 |
When evening had
come, they brought to Him many who were demon-possessed. And He cast out
the spirits with a word, and healed all who were sick,
|
|
17 |
that it might be
fulfilled which was spoken by Isaiah the prophet, saying:
“He
Himself took our infirmities And bore our sicknesses.”
|
|
18 |
And when Jesus saw
great multitudes about Him, He gave a command to depart to the other side.
|
|
19 |
Then a certain
scribe came and said to Him,
“Teacher,
I will follow You wherever You go.”
|
|
20 |
And Jesus said to
him,
“Foxes
have holes and birds of the air have nests, but the Son of Man has nowhere
to lay His head.”
|
|
21 |
Then another of His
disciples said to Him,
“Lord,
let me first go and bury my father.”
|
|
22 |
But Jesus said to
him,
“Follow
Me, and let the dead bury their own dead.”
|
|
23 |
Now when He got into
a boat, His disciples followed Him. |
|
24 |
And suddenly a great
tempest arose on the sea, so that the boat was covered with the waves. But
He was asleep.
|
|
25 |
Then His disciples
came to Him and awoke Him, saying,
“Lord,
save us! We are perishing!”
|
|
26 |
But He said to them,
“Why
are you fearful, O you of little faith?” Then He arose and rebuked the winds and the sea, and there was a great
calm.
|
|
27 |
So the men marveled,
saying, “Who
can this be, that even the winds and the sea obey Him?”
|
|
28 |
When He had come to
the other side, to the country of the Gergesenes, there met Him two
demon-possessed men, coming out of the tombs, exceedingly fierce, so that no
one could pass that way.
|
|
29 |
And suddenly they
cried out, saying,
“What
have we to do with You, Jesus, You Son of God? Have You come here to
torment us before the time?”
|
|
30 |
Now a good way off
from them there was a herd of many swine feeding.
|
|
31 |
So the demons begged
Him, saying,
“If
You cast us out, permit us to go away into the herd of swine.”
|
|
32 |
And He said to them,
“Go.” So when they had come out, they
went into the herd of swine. And suddenly the whole herd of swine ran
violently down the steep place into the sea, and perished in the water.
|
|
33 |
Then those who kept
them fled; and they went away into the city and told everything, including
what had happened to the demon-possessed men.
|
|
34 |
And behold, the
whole city came out to meet Jesus. And when they saw Him, they begged Him
to depart from their region.
