MT 8:1 When he came down from the mountain, great multitudes followed him.
MT 8:2 Behold, a leper came to him and worshiped him, saying, "Lord, if you want to, you can make me clean."
MT 8:3 Jesus stretched out his hand, and touched him, saying, "I want to. Be made clean." Immediately his leprosy was cleansed.
MT 8:4 Jesus said to him, "See that you tell nobody, but go, show yourself to the priest, and offer the gift that Moses commanded, as a testimony to them."
MT 8:5 When he came into Capernaum, a centurion came to him, asking him,
MT 8:6 and saying, "Lord, my servant lies in the house paralyzed, grievously tormented."
MT 8:7 Jesus said to him, "I will come and heal him."
MT 8:8 The centurion answered, "Lord, I'm not worthy for you to come under my roof. Just say the word, and my servant will be healed.
MT 8:9 For I am also a man under authority, having under myself soldiers. I tell this one, 'Go,' and he goes; and tell another, 'Come,' and he comes; and tell my servant, 'Do this,' and he does it."
MT 8:10 When Jesus heard it, he marveled, and said to those who followed, "Most certainly I tell you, I haven't found so great a faith, not even in Israel.
MT 8:11 I tell you that many will come from the east and the west, and will sit down with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob in the Kingdom of Heaven,
MT 8:12 but the children of the Kingdom will be thrown out into the outer darkness. There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth."
MT 8:13 Jesus said to the centurion, "Go your way. Let it be done for you as you have believed." His servant was healed in that hour.
MT 8:14 When Jesus came into Peter's house, he saw his wife's mother lying sick with a fever.
MT 8:15 He touched her hand, and the fever left her. She got up and served him.{TR reads "them" instead of "him"}
MT 8:16 When evening came, they brought to him many possessed with demons. He cast out the spirits with a word, and healed all who were sick;
MT 8:17 that it might be fulfilled which was spoken through Isaiah the prophet, saying: "He took our infirmities, and bore our diseases."{Isaiah 53:4}
MT 8:18 Now when Jesus saw great multitudes around him, he gave the order to depart to the other side.
MT 8:19 A scribe came, and said to him, "Teacher, I will follow you wherever you go."
MT 8:20 Jesus said to him, "The foxes have holes, and the birds of the sky have nests, but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay his head."
MT 8:21 Another of his disciples said to him, "Lord, allow me first to go and bury my father."
MT 8:22 But Jesus said to him, "Follow me, and leave the dead to bury their own dead."
MT 8:23 When he got into a boat, his disciples followed him.
MT 8:24 Behold, a violent storm came up on the sea, so much that the boat was covered with the waves, but he was asleep.
MT 8:25 They came to him, and woke him up, saying, "Save us, Lord! We are dying!"
MT 8:26 He said to them, "Why are you fearful, O you of little faith?" Then he got up, rebuked the wind and the sea, and there was a great calm.
MT 8:27 The men marveled, saying, "What kind of man is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?"
MT 8:28 When he came to the other side, into the country of the Gergesenes,{NU reads "Gadarenes"} two people possessed by demons met him there, coming out of the tombs, exceedingly fierce, so that nobody could pass that way.
MT 8:29 Behold, they cried out, saying, "What do we have to do with you, Jesus, Son of God? Have you come here to torment us before the time?"
MT 8:30 Now there was a herd of many pigs feeding far away from them.
MT 8:31 The demons begged him, saying, "If you cast us out, permit us to go away into the herd of pigs."
MT 8:32 He said to them, "Go!" They came out, and went into the herd of pigs: and behold, the whole herd of pigs rushed down the cliff into the sea, and died in the water.
MT 8:33 Those who fed them fled, and went away into the city, and told everything, including what happened to those who were possessed with demons.
MT 8:34 Behold, all the city came out to meet Jesus. When they saw him, they begged that he would depart from their borders.
