King James New American Standard Bible
  • 1 When he was come down from the mountain, great multitudes followed him.
  • 2 And, behold, there came a leper and worshipped him, saying, Lord, if thou wilt, thou canst make me clean.
  • 3 And Jesus put forth his hand, and touched him, saying, I will; be thou clean. And immediately his leprosy was cleansed.
  • 4 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.
  • 5 And when Jesus was entered into Capernaum, there came unto him a centurion, beseeching him,
  • 6 And saying, Lord, my servant lieth at home sick of the palsy, grievously tormented.
  • 7 And Jesus saith unto him, I will come and heal him.
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • 1 When Jesus came down from the mountain, large crowds followed Him.
  • 2 And a leper came to Him and bowed 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 leprosy was cleansed.
  • 4 And Jesus *said to him, “See that you tell no one; but go, show yourself to the priest and present the offering that Moses commanded, as a testimony to them.”
  • 5 And when Jesus entered Capernaum, a centurion came to Him, imploring Him,
  • 6 and saying, “Lord, my servant is lying paralyzed at home, fearfully tormented.”
  • 7 Jesus *said to him, “I will come and heal him.”
  • 8 But the centurion said, “Lord, I am not worthy for You to come under my roof, but just say the word, and my servant will be healed.
  • 9 “For I also am a man under authority, 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 with anyone in Israel.
  • 11 “I say to you that many will come from east and west, and recline {at the table with Abraham, Isaac and Jacob in the kingdom of heaven;
  • 12 but the sons of the kingdom will be cast out into the outer darkness; in that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.”
  • 13 And Jesus said to the centurion, “Go; it shall be done for you as you have believed.” And the servant was healed that very moment.
  • 14 When Jesus came into Peter's home, 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 waited on Him.
  • 16 When evening came, they brought to Him many who were demon-possessed; and He cast out the spirits with a word, and healed all who were ill.
  • 17 This was to fulfill what was spoken through Isaiah the prophet: “HE HIMSELF TOOK OUR INFIRMITIES AND CARRIED AWAY OUR DISEASES.”
  • 18 Now when Jesus saw a crowd around Him, He gave orders to depart to the other side of the sea.
  • 19 Then 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 air have nests, but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay His head.”

  • 25 And they came to Him and woke Him, saying, “Save us, Lord; we are perishing!”
  • 26 He *said to them, “Why are you afraid, you men of little faith?” Then He got up and rebuked the winds and the sea, and it 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?”

  • 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, including what had happened to the demoniacs.
  • 34 And behold, the whole city came out to meet Jesus; and when they saw Him, they implored Him to leave their region.
