When he
was come down from the mountain, great multitudes
followed him.
02 And, behold, there came a leper and worshipped
him, saying, Lord, if thou wilt, thou canst make
me clean.
03 And Jesus put forth his hand, and touched him,
saying, I will; be thou clean. And
immediately his leprosy was cleansed.
04 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 testimony unto them.
05 And when Jesus was entered into
Capernaum, there came unto him a centurion,
beseeching him,
06 And saying, Lord, my servant lieth at home
sick of the palsy, grievously tormented.
07 And Jesus saith unto him, I will
come and heal him.
08 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.
09 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.
10 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.
11 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.
12 But the children of the
kingdom shall be cast out into outer darkness:
there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
13 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.
14 And when Jesus was come into Peter's house, he
saw his wife's mother laid, and sick of a fever.
15 And he touched her hand, and the fever left
her: and she arose, and ministered unto them.
16 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:
17 That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by
Esaias the prophet, saying, Himself took our
infirmities, and bare our sicknesses.

18 Now when Jesus saw great multitudes about him,
he gave commandment to depart unto the other
side.
19 And a certain scribe came, and said unto him,
Master, I will follow thee whithersoever thou
goest.
20 And Jesus saith unto him, The
foxes have holes, and the birds of the air have
nests; but the Son of man hath not where to lay
his head.
21 And another of his disciples
said unto him, Lord, suffer me first to go and
bury my father.
22 But Jesus said unto him, Follow
me; and let the dead bury their dead.
23 And when he was entered into a
ship, his disciples followed him.
24 And, behold, there arose a great tempest in
the sea, insomuch that the ship was covered with
the waves: but he was asleep.
25 And his disciples came to him, and awoke him,
saying, Lord, save us: we perish.
26 And he saith unto them, Why are
ye fearful, O ye of little faith? Then he
arose, and rebuked the winds and the sea; and
there was a great calm.
27 But the men marvelled, saying, What manner of
man is this, that even the winds and the sea obey
him!
28 And when he was come to the other side into
the country of the Gergesenes, there met him two
possessed with devils, coming out of the tombs,
exceeding fierce, so that no man might pass by
that way.
29 And, behold, they cried out, saying, What have
we to do with thee, Jesus, thou Son of God? art
thou come hither to torment us before the time?
30 And there was a good way off from them an herd
of many swine feeding.
31 So the devils besought him, saying, If thou
cast us out, suffer us to go away into the herd
of swine.
32 And he said unto them, Go. And when they were
come out, they went into the herd of swine: and,
behold, the whole herd of swine ran violently
down a steep place into the sea, and perished in
the waters.
33 And they that kept them fled, and went their
ways into the city, and told every thing, and
what was befallen to the possessed of the devils.
34 And, behold, the whole city came out to meet
Jesus: and when they saw him, they besought him
that he would depart out of their coasts.
