Y cuando bajó del monte, grandes multitudes le seguían. 2 ^aY he aquí, se le acercó un leproso y se postró ante Él^1b, diciendo: Señor, si quieres, puedes limpiarme. 3 Y extendiendo Jesús la mano, lo tocó, diciendo: Quiero; sé limpio. Y al instante quedó limpio de su lepra^1a. 4 Entonces Jesús le dijo*: Mira, no se lo digas a nadie^a, sino ve^b, muéstrate al sacerdote^c y presenta la ofrenda que ordenó Moisés, para que les sirva de testimonio a ellos.

5 ^aY cuando entró Jesús¹ en Capernaúm se le acercó un centurión suplicándole, 6 y diciendo: Señor, mi criado¹ está postrado en casa, paralítico^a, sufriendo mucho². 7 Y Jesús le dijo*: Yo iré y lo sanaré. 8 Pero el centurión respondió y dijo: Señor, no soy digno de que entres bajo mi techo; mas solamente di la palabra¹ y mi criado² quedará sano. 9 Porque yo también soy hombre bajo autoridad^a, con¹ soldados a mis órdenes²; y digo aeste: «Ve», y va; y al otro: «Ven», y viene; y a mi siervo: «Haz esto», y lo hace. 10 Al oírlo Jesús, se maravilló y dijo a los que le seguían: En verdad os digo que en Israel¹ no he hallado en nadie una fe tan grande. 11 Y os digo que vendrán muchos del oriente y del occidente^a, y se sentarán¹ a la mesa con Abraham, Isaac y Jacob en el reino de los cielos. 12 Pero los hijos del reino^a serán arrojados a las tinieblas de afuera^b; allí será el llanto y el crujir de dientes^c. 13 Entonces Jesús dijo al centurión: Vete; así como has creído^a, te sea hecho. Y el criado¹ fue sanado en esa misma hora.

14 ^aAl llegar Jesús a casa de Pedro, vio a la suegra deeste¹ que yacía en cama² con fiebre. 15 Le tocó la mano, y la fiebre la dejó; y ella se levantó y le servía. 16 Y al atardecer, le trajeron muchos endemoniados^a; y expulsó a los espíritus con su palabra, y sanó a todos los que estaban enfermos^b, 17 para que se cumpliera lo que fue dicho por medio del profeta Isaías cuando dijo: EL MISMO TOMO NUESTRAS FLAQUEZAS Y LLEVO¹ NUESTRAS ENFERMEDADES^a.

18 Viendo Jesús una multitud a su alrededor, dio orden^a de pasar al otro lado. 19 ^aY un escriba se le acercó y le dijo: Maestro, te seguiré adondequiera que vayas. 20 Y Jesús le dijo*: Las zorras tienen madrigueras y las aves del cielo nidos, pero el Hijo del Hombre^a no tiene dónde recostar la cabeza. 21 Otro de los discípulos le dijo: Señor, permíteme que vaya primero y entierre a mi padre. 22 Pero Jesús le dijo*: Sígueme, y deja que los muertos entierren a sus muertos^a.

23 ^aCuando entró Jesús¹ en la barca, sus discípulos le siguieron. 24 Y de pronto¹ se desató una gran tormenta² en el mar, de modo que las olas cubrían la barca; pero Jesús³ estaba dormido. 25 Y llegándose a Él, le despertaron, diciendo: ¡Señor, sálvanos^a, que perecemos! 26 Y Él les dijo*: ¿Por qué estáis amedrentados, hombres de poca fe^a? Entonces se levantó, reprendió a los vientos y al mar, y sobrevino una gran calma. 27 Y los hombres se maravillaron, diciendo: ¿Quién eseste, que aun los vientos y el mar le obedecen?

28 ^aCuando llegó al otro lado, a la tierra de los gadarenos, le salieron al encuentro dos endemoniados^b que salían de los sepulcros, violentos en extremo, de manera que nadie podía pasar por aquel camino. 29 Y¹ gritaron, diciendo: ¿Qué tenemos que ver contigo², Hijo de Dios^a? ¿Has venido aquí para atormentarnos antes del tiempo³? 30 A cierta distancia de ellos había una piara de muchos cerdos paciendo; 31 y los demonios le rogaban, diciendo: Si vas a echarnos fuera, mándanos a la piara de cerdos. 32 Entonces Él les dijo: ¡Id! Y ellos salieron y entraron en los cerdos; y he aquí que la piara entera se precipitó por un despeñadero al mar, y perecieron en las aguas. 33 Los que cuidaban la piara huyeron; y fueron a la ciudad y lo contaron todo, incluso¹ lo de los endemoniados^a. 34 Y¹ toda la ciudad salió al encuentro de Jesús; y cuando le vieron, le rogaron que se fuera de su comarca^a.

When ¹Jesus came down from the mountain, ²large crowds followed Him. 2 And ^aa leper came to Him and ^1bbowed down before Him, and said, “Lord, if You are willing, You can make me clean.” 3 Jesus stretched out His hand and touched him, saying, “I am willing; be cleansed.” And immediately his ^aleprosy was cleansed. 4 And Jesus *said to him, “^aSee that you tell no one; but ^bgo, ^cshow yourself to the priest and present the ¹offering that Moses commanded, as a testimony to them.”

5 And ^awhen ¹Jesus entered Capernaum, a centurion came to Him, imploring Him, 6 and saying, “¹Lord, my ²servant is ³lying ^aparalyzed at home, fearfully tormented.” 7 Jesus *said to him, “I will come and heal him.” 8 But the centurion said, “¹Lord, I am not worthy for You to come under my roof, but just ²say the word, and my ³servant will be healed. 9 For I also am a man under ^aauthority, 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.” 10 Now when Jesus heard this, He marveled and said to those who were following, “Truly I say to you, I have not found such great faith ¹with anyone in Israel. 11 I say to you that many ^awill come from east and west, and ¹recline at the table with Abraham, Isaac and Jacob in the kingdom of heaven; 12 but ^athe sons of the kingdom will be cast out into ^bthe outer darkness; in that place ^cthere will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.” 13 And Jesus said to the centurion, “Go; ¹it shall be done for you ^aas you have believed.” And the ²servant was healed that very ³moment.

14 ^aWhen Jesus came into Peter’s ¹home, He saw his mother-in-law lying sick in bed with a fever. 15 He touched her hand, and the fever left her; and she got up and ¹waited on Him. 16 When evening came, they brought to Him many ^awho were demon-possessed; and He cast out the spirits with a word, and ^bhealed all who were ill. 17 This was to fulfill what was spoken through Isaiah the prophet: “^aHE HIMSELF TOOK OUR INFIRMITIES AND ¹CARRIED AWAY OUR DISEASES.”

18 Now when Jesus saw a crowd around Him, ^aHe gave orders to depart to the other side of the sea. 19 ^aThen a scribe came and said to Him, “Teacher, I will follow You wherever You go.” 20 Jesus *said to him, “The foxes have holes and the birds of the ¹air have ²nests, but ^athe Son of Man has nowhere to lay His head.” 21 Another of the disciples said to Him, “Lord, permit me first to go and bury my father.” 22 But Jesus *said to him, “^aFollow Me, and allow the dead to bury their own dead.”

23 ^aWhen He got into the boat, His disciples followed Him. 24 And behold, there arose ¹a great storm on the sea, so that the boat was being covered with the waves; but Jesus Himself was asleep. 25 And they came to Him and woke Him, saying, “^aSave us, Lord; we are perishing!” 26 He *said to them, “Why are you ¹afraid, ^ayou men of little faith?” Then He got up and rebuked the winds and the sea, and ²it became perfectly calm. 27 The men were amazed, and said, “What kind of a man is this, that even the winds and the sea obey Him?”

28 ^aWhen He came to the other side into the country of the Gadarenes, two men who were ^bdemon-possessed met Him as they were coming out of the tombs. They were so extremely violent that no one could pass by that way. 29 And they cried out, saying, “^1aWhat business do we have with each other, Son of God? Have You come here to torment us before ²the time?” 30 Now there was a herd of many swine feeding at a distance from them. 31 The demons began to entreat Him, saying, “If You are going to cast us out, send us into the herd of swine.” 32 And He said to them, “Go!” And they came out and went into the swine, and the whole herd rushed down the steep bank into the sea and perished in the waters. 33 The herdsmen ran away, and went to the city and reported everything, ¹including what had happened to the ^ademoniacs. 34 And behold, the whole city came out to meet Jesus; and when they saw Him, ^athey implored Him to leave their region.

When ¹Jesus came down from the mountain, ²large crowds followed Him. 2 And ^aa man with ¹leprosy came to Him and ^2bbowed down before Him, and said, “Lord, if You are willing, You can make me clean.” 3 ¹Jesus reached out with His hand and touched him, saying, “I am willing; be cleansed.” And immediately his ^aleprosy was cleansed. 4 And Jesus *said to him, “^aSee that you tell no one; but ^bgo, ^cshow yourself to the priest and present the ¹offering that Moses commanded, as a testimony to them.”

5 And ^awhen ¹Jesus entered Capernaum, a ²centurion came to Him, begging Him, 6 and saying, “¹Lord, my ²servant is lying ^aparalyzed at home, terribly tormented.” 7 Jesus *said to him, “I will come and heal him.” 8 But the centurion replied, “¹Lord, I am not worthy for You to come under my roof, but just ²say the word, and my ³servant will be healed. 9 For I also am a man under ^aauthority, 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.” 10 Now 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 ¹with anyone in Israel. 11 And I say to you that many ^awill come from east and west, and ¹recline at the table with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob in the kingdom of heaven; 12 but ^athe sons of the kingdom will be thrown out into ^bthe outer darkness; in that place ^cthere will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.” 13 And Jesus said to the centurion, “Go; ¹it shall be done for you ^aas you have believed.” And the ²servant was healed at that very ³moment.

14 ^aWhen Jesus came into Peter’s ¹home, He saw his mother-in-law lying sick in bed with a fever. 15 And He touched her hand, and the fever left her; and she got up and ¹waited on Him. 16 Now when evening came, they brought to Him many ^awho were demon-possessed; and He cast out the spirits with a word, and ^bhealed all who were ill. 17 This happened so that what was spoken through Isaiah the prophet would be fulfilled: “^aHE HIMSELF TOOK OUR ILLNESSES AND ¹CARRIED AWAY OUR DISEASES.”

18 Now when Jesus saw a crowd around Him, ^aHe gave orders to depart to the other side of the sea. 19 ^aThen a scribe came and said to Him, “Teacher, I will follow You wherever You go.” 20 And Jesus *said to him, “The foxes have holes and the birds of the sky have nests, but ^athe Son of Man has nowhere to lay His head.” 21 And another of the disciples said to Him, “Lord, allow me first to go and bury my father.” 22 But Jesus *said to him, “^aFollow Me, and let the dead bury their own dead.”

23 ^aWhen He got into the boat, His disciples followed Him. 24 And behold, a ¹violent storm developed on the sea, so that the boat was being covered by the waves; but Jesus Himself was asleep. 25 And they came to Him and woke Him, saying, “^aSave us, Lord; we are perishing!” 26 He *said to them, “Why are you ¹afraid, ^ayou men of little faith?” Then He got up and rebuked the winds and the sea, and ²it became perfectly calm. 27 The men were amazed, and said, “What kind of a man is this, that even the winds and the sea obey Him?”
