1Being come down from the mountain, followed by a great multitude, 2a leper came, who, presenting himself before him, said, Sir, if you will, you can cleanse me. 3Jesus stretched out his hand, and touched him, saying, I will; be you clean. Immediately he was cured of his leprosy. 4Then Jesus said to him, See you tell no person; but go, show yourself to the priest, and make the oblation prescribed by Moses, for notifying the cure to the people. 5Having entered Capernaum, a centurion accosted him with this request, 6Sir, my man-servant lies sick at home, exceedingly afflicted with a palsy. 7Jesus answered, I will go and cure him. 8The centurion replying, said, Sir, I am not worthy, that you should come under my roof; only say the word, and my servant will be healed. 9For even I, who am under command myself, having soldiers under me, say to one, Go, and he goes; to another, Come, and he comes; and to my servant, Do this, and he does it. 10Jesus hearing this, was astonished, and said to those who followed, Indeed, I say to you, not even in Israel have I found so great faith. 11But I assure you, that many will come from the east and from the west, and will be placed at table with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, in the kingdom of heaven, 12while the sons of the kingdom shall be thrust out into outer darkness, where will be weeping and gnashing of teeth. 13Then Jesus said to the centurion, Go home; be it to you, according to your faith. That instant his servant was cured. 14Then Jesus having entered Peter's house, saw his wife's mother lying sick of a fever, 15and having touched her hand, the fever left her; on which she arose and entertained him. 16In the evening they presented to him many demoniacs; and he expelled the spirits with a word, and cured all the sick; 17«thus verifying the saying of the Prophet Isaiah,» 'He has himself carried off our infirmities, and borne our distresses.' 18Jesus seeing himself crowded on all sides, gave orders to pass to the opposite shore. 19Meantime, a scribe accosted him, saying, Rabbi, I will follow you whithersoever you go. 20Jesus answered, The foxes have holes, and the birds of the air have places of shelter, but the Son of Man has not where to repose his head. 21Another, one of his disciples, said to him, Master, permit me to go first, and bury my father. 22Jesus answered, Follow me, and let the dead bury their dead. 23Then entering the bark, his disciples followed him. 24Soon after there arose in the sea so great a tempest, that the bark was covered with billows. But he being asleep, 25the disciples came and waked him, saying, Save us, Master, we perish. 26He answered, Why are you so timorous, O you distrustful? Then he arose, and having commanded the winds and the sea, a great calm ensued; 27insomuch that every one exclaimed with admiration, What personage is this, whom even the winds and the sea obey. 28When he was come to the other side, into the country of the Gadarenes, there met him two demoniacs, issuing out of the monuments, so furious, that no person durst pass that way. 29These instantly cried, saying, What hast thou to do with us, Son of God? Art thou come hither to torment us before the time? 30Now there was feeding, at some distance, a great herd of swine. 31And the friends besought him, saying, If thou expel us, permit us to go into the herd of swine. 32He answered, Go. And when they were cast out, they went into the swine; on which the whole herd rushed down a precipice into the sea, and perished in the waters. 33Then the herdsmen fled into the city, and reported everything, and what had happened to the demoniacs. 34Presently the whole city went out to meet Jesus, and having seen him, entreated him to depart out of their territory.
