Matthew 8

1 Now as he came down from the mountain, great multitudes followed Him. 2 And behold a leper came and worshipped Him, saying, Lord, if thou wilt, thou canst cleanse me: 3 and Jesus stretched out his hand, and touched him, saying, and immediately his leprosy was cleansed. 4 And Jesus saith unto him, 5 And when Jesus was entered into Capernaum, there came unto Him a centurion beseeching Him, and saying, Lord, 6 my servant lieth in house ill of the palsy, grievously afflicted: 7 and Jesus saith unto him, 8 But the centurion answering said, Lord, I am not worthy that Thou shouldst come under my roof, but speak the word, and my servant will be healed: 9 for I also am a man under authority yet have soldiers under me; and I say to one, go, and he goeth; and to another, come, and he cometh; and to my servant, do this, and he doth 10 And when Jesus heard He marvelled, and said to them that followed 11 west, and shall sit down with Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, in the kingdom of heaven;} 12 there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.} 13 And Jesus said to the centurion, And his servant was healed in that hour. 14 And when Jesus came to Peter’s house. He saw his wife’s mother lying ill of a fever: 15 and He did touch her hand, and the fever left her; and she rose up and waited on them. 16 And when it was evening they brought to him many demoniacs: and he cast out the spirits with a word, and healed all that were ill: that it might be fulfilled, 17 which was spoken by Esaias the prophet, saying, He took our infirmities himself, and bore diseases. 18 But when Jesus saw great multitudes about Him, he gave orders for departing to the other side 19 And a certain scribe came to Him, and said, Master, I will follow Thee whithersoever Thou goest: 20 and Jesus saith unto him, nests; but the Son of man hath not where to lay his head.} 21 But another of his disciples, said unto Him, Lord, permit me first to go and bury my father: 22 but Jesus said unto him; 23 And when He was entered into the ship, his disciples followed Him: 24 and behold a great tempest rose on the sea, so that the vessel was covered by the waves; but He was asleep. 25 And His disciples came to Him, and awoke Him, saying, Lord save us, we are perishing: and He saith unto them, 26 frighted, O ye of little faith?} Then He rose up and rebuked the winds and the sea, and there was a great calm. 27 And the men wondered, saying, What person 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 demoniacs coming out from the tombs, exceeding fierce, so that no one could pass by that way: 29 and they cried out, saying, What we to do with Thee, Jesus Son of God? Art Thou come hither to torment us before the time? 30 Now there was at some distance from them a large herd of swine seeding: and the devils besought Him, 31 saying, If Thou cast us out, permit us to go away into the herd of swine: 32 and He said unto them, and they came out and went away into the herd of swine; and lo, all the herd of swine ran furiously down a precipice into the sea, 33 and perished in the waters. And they that were feeding them fled, and went away into the city, and related all also concerning the demoniacs. 34 And behold, all the city came out to meet Jesus; and when they saw Him, they intreated Him to depart from their coasts.
