  1. When Jesus had come down from the mountain, great multitudes followed Him.
    A leper came and worshiped Jesus:
    “Lord, if You are willing, You can make me clean.”

    Then Jesus put out His hand and touched him:
    “I am willing; be cleansed.”
    Immediately his leprosy was cleansed.

    Jesus to the leper:
    “See that you tell no one; but go your way, show yourself to the priest, and offer the gift that Moses commanded, as a testimony to them.”

    Now when Jesus had entered Capernaum, a centurion came to Him, pleading with Him:
    “Lord, my servant is lying at home paralyzed, dreadfully tormented.”

    Jesus to the centurion:
    “I will come and heal him.”

    The centurion:
    “Lord, I am not worthy that You should come under my roof. But only speak a word, and my servant will be healed. For I also am a man under authority, having soldiers under me. And I say to this one, ‘Go,’ and he goes; and to another, ‘Come,’ and he comes; and to my servant, ‘Do this,’ and he does it.”

    When Jesus heard it, He marveled and to those who followed:
    “Assuredly, I say to you, I have not found such great faith, not even in Israel! 11 And I say to you that many will come from east and west, and sit down with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob in the kingdom of heaven. But the sons of the kingdom will be cast out into outer darkness. There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.”

    Then Jesus to the centurion:
    “Go your way; and as you have believed, so let it be done for you.”

    And his servant was healed that same hour.

    When Jesus had come into Peter’s house, He saw his wife’s mother lying sick with a fever.
    He touched her hand, and the fever left her.
    And she arose and served them.
    Many Healed in the Evening

    When evening had come, they brought to Jesus many who were demon-possessed.
    He cast out the spirits with a word, and healed all who were sick, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Isaiah the prophet:

    “He Himself took our infirmities
    And bore our sicknesses.”

    Isaiah 53:4
    Surely He has borne our griefs (sicknesses)
    And carried our sorrows (pains);
    Yet we esteemed Him stricken,
    Smitten (Struck down) by God, and afflicted.

    When Jesus saw great multitudes about Him, He gave a command to depart to the other side.
    Then a certain scribe to Jesus:
    “Teacher, I will follow You wherever You go.”

    Jesus said to the scribe:
    “Foxes have holes and birds of the air have nests, but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay His head.”

    Then another of His disciples to Jesus:
    “Lord, let me first go and bury my father.”

    But Jesus to him:
    “Follow Me, and let the dead bury their own dead.”

    When Jesus got into a boat, His disciples followed Him.
    Suddenly a great tempest arose on the sea, so that the boat was covered with the waves.
    But Jesus was asleep.
    Then His disciples came to Jesus and awoke Him:
    “Lord, save us! We are perishing!”

    But Jesus to His disciples:
    “Why are you fearful, O you of little faith?”

    Then He arose and rebuked the winds and the sea, and there was a great calm.
    So the men marveled:
    “Who can this be (What sort of Man is this), that even the winds and the sea obey Him?”

    When Jesus had come to the other side, to the country of the Gergesenes (Gadarenes), there met Him 2 demon-possessed men, coming out of the tombs, exceedingly fierce, so that no one could pass that way.
    Suddenly they cried out:
    “What have we to do with You, Jesus, You Son of God? Have You come here to torment us before the time?”

    A good way off from them there was a herd of many swine feeding.
    So the demons begged Jesus:
    “If You cast us out, permit us to go away (send us) into the herd of swine.”

    Jesus to the demons:
    “Go.”
    So when they had come out, they went into the herd of swine.
    Suddenly the whole herd of swine ran violently down the steep place into the sea, and perished in the water.

    Then those who kept them fled.
    They went away into the city and told everything, including what had happened to the demon-possessed men.
    The whole city came out to meet Jesus.
    When they saw Him, they begged Him to depart from their region.
