1
And◦ when He had come··down from the mountain, many crowds followed Him.
2
And behold◦, there came a leper and worshiped Him, saying, Lord, if Thou willest, Thou canst make· me ·clean.
3
And stretching forth the hand, Jesus touched him, saying, I am willing; be thou cleansed. And straightway his leprosy was cleansed.
4
And Jesus says to him, See▵ thou tell no one; but go··thy··way, show thyself to the priest, and offer the gift that Moses directed, for◦ a testimony to them.
5
And◦ when Jesus had entered into Capernaum, a centurion◦ came··to Him, imploring Him,
6
and saying, Lord, my boy is cast··down in the house, sick··of··the··palsy, frightfully tormented.
7
And Jesus says to him, I will come and cure him.
8
And the centurion◦ answering declared◦, Lord, I am not worthy◦ that◦ Thou shouldst come··in under my roof, but only say◦ the word, and my boy shall be healed.
9
For I am a man under authority, having soldiers under myself; and I say to this man, Go, and he goes; and to another, Come, and he comes; and to my servant, Do this, and he does it.
10
And◦ when Jesus heard, He marveled, and said to those who followed, Amen I say to you, I have not found so··great a faith, no, not in Israel.
11
And◦ I say to you that many shall come◦ from the east and west, and shall recline* with Abraham and Isaac and Jacob in the kingdom of the heavens.
12
And◦ the sons of the kingdom shall be cast out into the outer darkness, where◦ there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
13
And Jesus said to the centurion◦, Go··thy··way; and as thou hast believed, be· it ·done◦ to thee. And his boy was healed in the same hour.
14
And Jesus, coming into the house of Peter, saw◦ his mother-in-law cast··down and with··a··fever.
15
And He touched her hand, and the fever left her; and she arose, and ministered to them.
16
And◦ when the evening was come, they brought··to Him many who were demon-possessed; and He cast out the spirits with a word, and He cured all who had an illness,
17
that it might be fulfilled what was declared by Isaiah the prophet, saying, He took our weaknesses, and bore our diseases.*
18
And◦ Jesus, seeing◦ many crowds around Him, gave··orders to depart◦ to◦ the other··side.
19
And one of the scribes coming said◦ to Him, Teacher, I will follow Thee wherever Thou goest▵.
20
And Jesus says unto him, The foxes have holes, and the birds of the heaven have nests, but◦ the Son of Man has nowhere to recline the head.
21
And◦ another of His disciples said to Him, Lord, permit me first to go▵ and bury my father.
22
But◦ Jesus said to him, Follow Me, and leave the dead to bury their dead.
23
And when He had stepped into the ship, His disciples followed Him.
24
And behold◦, there came··to··pass a great quaking in the sea, so that the ship was covered by the waves; but◦ He was sleeping.
25
And His disciples coming, caused Him to arise, saying, Lord, save us, we are perishing.
26
And He says unto them, Why are you frightened, O you of··little··faith? Then He arose and rebuked the winds and the sea; and there was◦ a great calm.
27
And◦ the men marveled, saying, What··manner of Man is this, that even the winds and the sea obey Him!
28
And when He had come to the other side of the country of the Gergesenes, two met Him who were demon-possessed, coming out of the sepulchers, exceedingly fierce, so··that◦ no one was··able◦ to pass··through that way.
29
And behold◦, they cried out, saying, What is there to us and to Thee*, Jesus, Son of God? Art Thou come hither before the time to torment us?
30
And◦ there was, a··distance from them, a herd of many swine feeding◦.
31
And◦ the demons implored Him, saying, If Thou cast· us ·out, permit us to go··away◦ into the herd of swine.
32
And He said◦ to them, Go◦. And◦ when they came··out, they went··away◦ into the herd of swine; and behold◦, all the herd of swine rushed down◦ a cliff into the sea, and died in the waters.
33
And◦ they who fed◦ them fled, and went··away◦ into the city, and reported all things, and the matter of the demon-possessed.
34
And behold◦, all the city came out to meet Jesus; and seeing◦ Him, they implored Him that He would pass··on away··from their borders.
