MT-8:1  When he was come down from the mountain, great

multitudes followed him.




MT-8:2  And, behold, there came a leper and worshipped him,

saying, Lord, if


thou wilt, thou canst make me clean.


MT-8:3  And Jesus put forth [his] hand, and touched him, saying,

I will; be


thou clean. And immediately his leprosy was cleansed.


MT-8:4  And Jesus saith unto him, See thou tell no man; but go

thy way, show


thyself to the priest, and offer the gift that Moses commanded,

for a testimony


unto them.


MT-8:5  And when Jesus was entered into Capernaum, there came

unto him a


centurion, beseeching him,


MT-8:6  And saying, Lord, my servant lieth at home sick of the

palsy,


grievously tormented.


MT-8:7  And Jesus saith unto him, I will come and heal him.


MT-8:8  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.


MT-8:9  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].


MT-8:10  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.


MT-8:11  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.


MT-8:12  But the children of the kingdom shall be cast out into

outer darkness:


there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.


MT-8:13  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.


MT-8:14  And when Jesus was come into Peter's house, he saw his

wife's mother


laid, and sick of a fever.


MT-8:15  And he touched her hand, and the fever left her: and

she arose, and


ministered unto them.


MT-8:16  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:


MT-8:17  That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias

the prophet,


saying, Himself took our infirmities, and bare [our] sicknesses.


MT-8:18  Now when Jesus saw great multitudes about him, he gave

commandment to


depart unto the other side.


MT-8:19  And a certain scribe came, and said unto him, Master, I

will follow


thee whithersoever thou goest.


MT-8:20  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.


MT-8:21  And another of his disciples said unto him, Lord,

suffer me first to


go and bury my father.


MT-8:22  But Jesus said unto him, Follow me; and let the dead

bury their dead.




MT-8:23  And when he was entered into a ship, his disciples

followed him.


MT-8:24  And, behold, there arose a great tempest in the sea,

insomuch that the


ship was covered with the waves: but he was asleep.


MT-8:25  And his disciples came to [him], and awoke him, saying,

Lord, save us:


we perish.


MT-8:26  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.


MT-8:27  But the men marvelled, saying, What manner of man is

this, that even


the winds and the sea obey him!


MT-8:28  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.


MT-8:29  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?


MT-8:30  And there was a good way off from them an herd of many

swine feeding.




MT-8:31  So the devils besought him, saying, If thou cast us out,

 suffer us to


go away into the herd of swine.


MT-8:32  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.


MT-8:33  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.


MT-8:34  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.
