Matthew 8:1-13

1When 1Jesus came down from the mountain, 2large crowds followed Him. 2And 3a man with 4leprosy came to Him and 56bowed down before Him, and said, “Lord, if You are willing, You can make me clean.” 37Jesus reached out with His hand and touched him, saying, “I am willing; be cleansed.” And immediately his 8leprosy was cleansed. 4And Jesus said to him, “9See that you tell no one; but 10go, 11show yourself to the priest and present the 12offering that Moses commanded, as a testimony to them.”

5And 13when 14Jesus entered Capernaum, a 15centurion came to Him, begging Him, 6and saying, “16Lord, my 17servant is lying 18paralyzed at home, terribly tormented.” 7Jesus said to him, “I will come and heal him.” 8But the centurion replied, “19Lord, I am not worthy for You to come under my roof, but just 20say the word, and my 21servant will be healed. 9For I also am a man under 22authority, with soldiers under me; and I say to this one, ‘Go!’ and he goes, and to another, ‘Come!’ and he comes, and to my slave, ‘Do this!’ and he does it.” 10Now when Jesus heard this, He was amazed and said to those who were following, “Truly I say to you, I have not found such great faith 23with anyone in Israel. 11And I say to you that many 24will come from east and west, and 25recline at the table with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob in the kingdom of heaven; 12but 26the sons of the kingdom will be thrown out into 27the outer darkness; in that place 28there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.” 13And Jesus said to the centurion, “Go; 29it shall be done for you 30as you have believed.” And the 31servant was healed at that very 32moment.
