Matthew 8:1-17

Darby Translation

8 And when he had come down from the mountain, great crowds followed him.

² And behold, a leper came up to [him] and did him homage, saying, Lord, if thou wilt, thou art able to cleanse me.

³ And he stretched out his hand and touched him, saying, I will; be cleansed. And immediately his leprosy was cleansed.

⁴ And Jesus says to him, See thou tell no man, but go, shew thyself to the priest, and offer the gift which Moses ordained, for a testimony to them.

⁵ And when he had entered into Capernaum, a centurion came to him, beseeching him,

⁶ and saying, Lord, my servant lies paralytic in the house, suffering grievously.

⁷ And Jesus says to him, *I* will come and heal him.

⁸ And the centurion answered and said, Lord, I am not fit that thou shouldest enter under my roof; but only speak a word, and my servant shall be healed.

⁹ For *I* also am a man under authority, having under me soldiers, and I say to this [one], Go, and he goes; and to another, Come, and he comes; and to my bondman, Do this, and he does it.

¹⁰ And when Jesus heard it, he wondered, and said to those who followed, Verily I say unto you, Not even in Israel have I found so great faith.

¹¹ But I say unto you, that many shall come from [the] rising and setting [sun], and shall lie down at table with Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob in the kingdom of the heavens;

¹² but the sons of the kingdom shall be cast out into the outer darkness: there shall be the weeping and the gnashing of teeth.

¹³ And Jesus said to the centurion, Go, and as thou hast believed, be it to thee. And his servant was healed in that hour.

¹⁴ And when Jesus had come to Peter's house, he saw his mother-in-law laid down and in a fever;

¹⁵ and he touched her hand, and the fever left her, and she arose and served him.

¹⁶ And when the evening was come, they brought to him many possessed by demons, and he cast out the spirits with a word, and healed all that were ill;

¹⁷ so that that should be fulfilled which was spoken through Esaias the prophet, saying, Himself took our infirmities and bore our diseases.
