Matthew 8:1-17
"When he was come down from the mountain,
great multitudes followed him.
And, behold, there came a leper and worshipped
him, saying, Lord, if thou wilt, thou canst make
me clean.
And Jesus put forth his hand, and touched him,
saying, I will; be thou clean. And immediately his
leprosy was cleansed.
And Jesus saith unto him, See thou tell no man;
but go thy way, shew thyself to the priest, and
offer the gift that Moses commanded, for a testi-
mony unto them.
And when Jesus was entered into Capernaum,
there came unto him a centurion, beseeching
him,
And saying, Lord, my servant lieth at home sick
of the palsy, grievously tormented.
And Jesus saith unto him, I will come and heal
him.
The centurion answered and said, Lord, I am not
worthy that thou shouldest come under my roof:
but speak the word only, and my servant shall be
healed.
For I am a man under authority, having soldiers
under me: and I say to this man, Go, and he goeth;
and to another, Come, and he cometh; and to my
servant, Do this, and he doeth it.
When Jesus heard it, he marvelled, and said to
them that followed, Verily I say unto you, I have
not found so great faith, no, not in Israel.
And I say unto you, That many shall come from
the east and west, and shall sit down with
Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, in the kingdom
of heaven.
But the children of the kingdom shall be cast out
into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and
gnashing of teeth.
And Jesus said unto the centurion, Go thy way;
and as thou hast believed, so be it done unto
thee. And his servant was healed in the selfsame
hour.
And when Jesus was come into Peter's house, he
saw his wife's mother laid, and sick of a fever.
And he touched her hand, and the fever left her:
and she arose, and ministered unto them.
When the even was come, they brought unto
him many that were possessed with devils: and
he cast out the spirits with his word, and healed
all that were sick:
That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by
Esaias the prophet, saying, Himself took our
infirmities, and bare our sicknesses."
