³¹ Ja hän meni hänen luoksensa ja nosti hänet ylös, tarttuen hänen käteensä; ja kuume lähti hänestä, ja hän palveli heitä.

⁴⁰ A leper came to him, begging him, kneeling down to him, and saying to him, "If you want to, you can make me clean."

⁴¹ Being moved with compassion, he stretched out his hand, and touched him, and said to him, "I want to. Be made clean."

⁴² When he had said this, immediately the leprosy departed from him, and he was made clean.

⁴³ He strictly warned him, and immediately sent him out,

⁴⁴ and said to him, "See you say nothing to anybody, but go show yourself to the priest, and offer for your cleansing the things which Moses commanded, for a testimony to them."

⁴⁵ But he went out, and began to proclaim it much, and to spread about the matter, so that Jesus could no more openly enter into a city, but was outside in desert places: and they came to him from everywhere.
