Matei 8
Cornilescu 1924 - Revised 2010, 2014
Vindecarea unui lepros
8 Când S-a coborât Isus de pe munte, multe noroade au mers după El. 2 Şi(A) un lepros s-a apropiat de El, I s-a închinat şi I-a zis: „Doamne, dacă vrei, poţi să mă curăţeşti”. 3 Isus a întins mâna, S-a atins de el şi a zis: „Da, vreau, fii curăţit!”Îndată a fost curăţită lepra lui. 4 Apoi, Isus i-a zis: „Vezi(B) să nu spui la nimeni, ci du-te de te arată preotului şi adu darul, pe care l-a rânduit(C) Moise, ca mărturie pentru ei”.
Vindecarea robului unui sutaş
5 Pe când(D) intra Isus în Capernaum, s-a apropiat de El un sutaş, care-L ruga 6 şi-I zicea: „Doamne, robul meu zace în casă slăbănog şi se chinuieşte cumplit.” 7 Isus i-a zis: „Am să vin şi să-l tămăduiesc.” 8 „Doamne”, a răspuns sutaşul, „nu(E) sunt vrednic să intri sub acoperământul meu, ci zi(F) numai un cuvânt, şi robul meu va fi tămăduit. 9 Căci şi eu sunt om sub stăpânire; am sub mine ostaşi şi zic unuia: ‘Du-te!’ şi se duce; altuia: ‘Vino!’ şi vine; şi robului meu: ‘Fă cutare lucru!’ şi-l face.” 10 Când a auzit Isus aceste vorbe, S-a mirat şi a zis celor ce veneau după El: „Adevărat vă spun că nici în Israel n-am găsit o credinţă aşa de mare. 11 Dar vă spun că vor veni mulţi(G) de la Răsărit şi de la Apus şi vor sta la masă cu Avraam, Isaac şi Iacov în Împărăţia cerurilor. 12 Iar(H) fiii Împărăţiei vor(I) fi aruncaţi în întunericul de afară, unde vor fi plânsul şi scrâşnirea dinţilor.” 13 Apoi a zis sutaşului: „Du-te şi facă-ţi-se după credinţa ta”.Şi robul lui s-a tămăduit chiar în ceasul acela.
Vindecarea soacrei lui Petru şi mai multor bolnavi
14 Isus S-a dus apoi(J) în casa lui Petru şi a văzut pe soacra(K) acestuia zăcând în pat, prinsă de friguri. 15 S-a atins de mâna ei şi au lăsat-o frigurile; apoi ea s-a sculat şi a început să-I slujească. 16 Seara(L), au adus la Isus pe mulţi îndrăciţi. El, prin cuvântul Lui, a scos din ei duhurile necurate şi a tămăduit pe toţi bolnavii, 17 ca să se împlinească ce fusese vestit prin prorocul Isaia, care zice: „El(M) a luat asupra Lui neputinţele noastre şi a purtat bolile noastre”.
Cum să urmăm pe Isus
18 Isus a văzut multe noroade împrejurul Său şi a poruncit să treacă de cealaltă parte. 19 Atunci(N) s-a apropiat de El un cărturar şi I-a zis: „Învăţătorule, vreau să Te urmez oriunde vei merge”. 20 Isus i-a răspuns: „Vulpile au vizuini şi păsările cerului au cuiburi, dar Fiul omului n-are unde-Şi odihni capul”. 21 Un(O) altul, care era dintre ucenici, I-a zis: „Doamne, dă-mi(P) voie să mă duc mai întâi să îngrop pe tatăl meu”. 22 „Vino după Mine”, i-a răspuns Isus, „şi lasă morţii să-şi îngroape morţii”.
Potolirea furtunii
23 Isus S-a suit într-o corabie, şi ucenicii Lui au mers după El. 24 Şi(Q), deodată, s-a stârnit pe mare o furtună atât de straşnică, încât corabia era acoperită de valuri. Şi El dormea. 25 Ucenicii s-au apropiat de El şi L-au deşteptat, strigând: „Doamne, scapă-ne, că pierim!” 26 El le-a zis: „De ce vă este frică, puţin credincioşilor?” Apoi S-a sculat(R), a certat vânturile şi marea şi s-a făcut o linişte mare. 27 Oamenii aceia se mirau şi ziceau: „Ce fel de om este acesta, de-L ascultă până şi vânturile şi marea?”
Doi îndrăciţi sunt tămăduiţi
28 Când(S) a ajuns Isus de partea cealaltă, în ţinutul gadarenilor, L-au întâmpinat doi îndrăciţi, care ieşeau din morminte. Erau aşa de cumpliţi, că nimeni nu putea trece pe drumul acela. 29 Şi iată că au început să strige: „Ce legătură este între noi şi Tine, Isuse, Fiul lui Dumnezeu? Ai venit aici să ne chinuieşti înainte de vreme?” 30 Departe de ei era o turmă mare de porci, care păşteau. 31 Dracii rugau pe Isus şi ziceau: „Dacă ne scoţi afară din ei, dă-ne voie să ne ducem în turma aceea de porci”. 32 „Duceţi-vă”, le-a zis El. Ei au ieşit şi au intrat în porci. Şi, deodată, toată turma s-a repezit de pe râpă în mare şi a pierit în ape. 33 Porcarii au fugit şi s-au dus în cetate de au povestit tot ce se petrecuse şi cele întâmplate cu îndrăciţii. 34 Şi iată că toată cetatea a ieşit în întâmpinarea lui Isus şi, cum L-au văzut, L-au(T) rugat să plece din ţinutul lor.
Matthew 8
New King James Version
Jesus Cleanses a Leper(A)
8 When He had come down from the mountain, great multitudes followed Him. 2 (B)And behold, a leper came and (C)worshiped Him, saying, “Lord, if You are willing, You can make me clean.”
3 Then Jesus put out His hand and touched him, saying, “I am willing; be cleansed.” Immediately his leprosy (D)was cleansed.
4 And Jesus said to him, (E)“See that you tell no one; but go your way, show yourself to the priest, and offer the gift that (F)Moses (G)commanded, as a testimony to them.”
Jesus Heals a Centurion’s Servant(H)
5 (I)Now when Jesus had entered Capernaum, a (J)centurion came to Him, pleading with Him, 6 saying, “Lord, my servant is lying at home paralyzed, dreadfully tormented.”
7 And Jesus said to him, “I will come and heal him.”
8 The centurion answered and said, “Lord, (K)I am not worthy that You should come under my roof. But only (L)speak a word, and my servant will be healed. 9 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.”
10 When Jesus heard it, He marveled, and said 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 (M)many will come from east and west, and sit down with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob in the kingdom of heaven. 12 But (N)the sons of the kingdom (O)will be cast out into outer darkness. There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.” 13 Then Jesus said 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.
Peter’s Mother-in-Law Healed(P)
14 (Q)Now when Jesus had come into Peter’s house, He saw (R)his wife’s mother lying sick with a fever. 15 So He touched her hand, and the fever left her. And she arose and served [a]them.
Many Healed in the Evening(S)
16 (T)When evening had come, they brought to Him many who were demon-possessed. And He cast out the spirits with a word, and healed all who were sick, 17 that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Isaiah the prophet, saying:
(U)“He Himself took our infirmities
And bore our sicknesses.”
The Cost of Discipleship(V)
18 And when Jesus saw great multitudes about Him, He gave a command to depart to the other side. 19 (W)Then a certain scribe came and said to Him, “Teacher, I will follow You wherever You go.”
20 And Jesus said to him, “Foxes have holes and birds of the air have nests, but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay His head.”
21 (X)Then another of His disciples said to Him, “Lord, (Y)let me first go and bury my father.”
22 But Jesus said to him, “Follow Me, and let the dead bury their own dead.”
Wind and Wave Obey Jesus(Z)
23 Now when He got into a boat, His disciples followed Him. 24 (AA)And suddenly a great tempest arose on the sea, so that the boat was covered with the waves. But He was asleep. 25 Then His disciples came to Him and awoke Him, saying, “Lord, save us! We are perishing!”
26 But He said to them, “Why are you fearful, O you of little faith?” Then (AB)He arose and rebuked the winds and the sea, and there was a great calm. 27 So the men marveled, saying, [b]“Who can this be, that even the winds and the sea obey Him?”
Two Demon-Possessed Men Healed(AC)
28 (AD)When He had come to the other side, to the country of the [c]Gergesenes, there met Him two demon-possessed men, coming out of the tombs, exceedingly fierce, so that no one could pass that way. 29 And suddenly they cried out, saying, “What have we to do with You, Jesus, You Son of God? Have You come here to torment us before the time?”
30 Now a good way off from them there was a herd of many swine feeding. 31 So the demons begged Him, saying, “If You cast us out, [d]permit us to go away into the herd of swine.”
32 And He said to them, “Go.” So when they had come out, they went into the herd of swine. And suddenly the whole herd of swine ran violently down the steep place into the sea, and perished in the water.
33 Then those who kept them fled; and they went away into the city and told everything, including what had happened to the demon-possessed men. 34 And behold, the whole city came out to meet Jesus. And when they saw Him, (AE)they begged Him to depart from their region.

English Standard Version
Jesus Cleanses a Leper
8 When he came down from the mountain, (A)great crowds followed him. 2 (B)And behold, a leper[a] came to him and (C)knelt before him, saying, “Lord, if you will, you can make me clean.” 3 And Jesus[b] stretched out his hand and touched him, saying, “I will; be clean.” And immediately his leprosy was cleansed. 4 And Jesus said to him, (D)“See that you say nothing to anyone, but go, (E)show yourself to the priest and (F)offer the gift that Moses commanded, (G)for a proof to them.”
The Faith of a Centurion
5 (H)When he had entered Capernaum, a centurion came forward to him, appealing to him, 6 “Lord, my servant is lying paralyzed at home, suffering terribly.” 7 And he said to him, “I will come and heal him.” 8 But the centurion replied, “Lord, I am not worthy to have you come under my roof, but (I)only say the word, and my servant will be healed. 9 For I too am a man under authority, with soldiers under me. And I say to one, ‘Go,’ and he goes, and to another, ‘Come,’ and he comes, and to my servant,[c] ‘Do this,’ and he does it.” 10 When Jesus heard this, (J)he marveled and said to those who followed him, “Truly, I tell you, with (K)no one in Israel[d] have I found such faith. 11 I tell you, (L)many will come from east and west and recline at table with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob in the kingdom of heaven, 12 (M)while the sons of the kingdom (N)will be thrown into the outer darkness. In that place (O)there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.” 13 And to the centurion Jesus said, “Go; let it be done for you (P)as you have believed.” (Q)And the servant was healed at that very moment.
Jesus Heals Many
14 (R)And when Jesus entered Peter's house, he saw (S)his mother-in-law lying sick with a fever. 15 He (T)touched her hand, and the fever left her, and she rose and began to serve him. 16 That evening they brought to him many who were (U)oppressed by demons, and he cast out the spirits (V)with a word and healed all who were sick. 17 (W)This was to fulfill what was spoken by the prophet Isaiah: (X)“He took our illnesses and bore our diseases.”
The Cost of Following Jesus
18 Now (Y)when Jesus saw a crowd around him, (Z)he gave orders to go over to the other side. 19 (AA)And a scribe came up and said to him, “Teacher, I will follow you wherever you go.” 20 And Jesus said to him, “Foxes have holes, and birds of the air have nests, but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay his head.” 21 Another of the disciples said to him, “Lord, let me first go and bury my father.” 22 And Jesus said to him, “Follow me, and leave (AB)the dead to bury their own dead.”
Jesus Calms a Storm
23 (AC)And when he got into the boat, his disciples followed him. 24 And behold, there arose a great storm on the sea, so that the boat was being swamped by the waves; but (AD)he was asleep. 25 And they went and woke him, saying, (AE)“Save us, Lord; we are perishing.” 26 And he said to them, “Why are you (AF)afraid, (AG)O you of little faith?” Then he rose and (AH)rebuked the winds and the sea, and (AI)there was a great calm. 27 And the men (AJ)marveled, saying, “What sort of man is this, that even (AK)winds and sea obey him?”
Jesus Heals Two Men with Demons
28 (AL)And when he came to the other side, to the country of the Gadarenes,[e] two (AM)demon-possessed[f] men met him, coming out of the tombs, so fierce that no one could pass that way. 29 And behold, they (AN)cried out, “What have you to do with us, (AO)O Son of God? Have you come here to torment us (AP)before the time?” 30 Now a herd of many pigs was feeding at some distance from them. 31 And the demons begged him, saying, “If you cast us out, send us away into the herd of pigs.” 32 And he said to them, “Go.” So they came out and went into the pigs, and behold, the whole herd rushed down the steep bank into the sea and drowned in the waters. 33 The herdsmen fled, and going into the city they told everything, especially what had happened to the (AQ)demon-possessed men. 34 And behold, all the city came out to meet Jesus, and when they saw him, (AR)they begged him to leave their region.
