^24 (A)who Himself bore our sins in His own body on the tree, ^(B)that we, having died to sins, might live for righteousness—^(C)by whose ^[a]stripes you were healed.

Many Healed in the Evening^(A)

^16 (B)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:

^15 (A)And He said to them, “Go into all the world ^(B)and preach the gospel to every creature. ^16 (C)He who believes and is baptized will be saved; ^(D)but he who does not believe will be condemned. ¹⁷ And these ^(E)signs will follow those who ^[a]believe: ^(F)In My name they will cast out demons; ^(G)they will speak with new tongues; ^18 (H)they^[b] will take up serpents; and if they drink anything deadly, it will by no means hurt them; ^(I)they will lay hands on the sick, and they will recover.”

¹⁴ Is anyone among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the church, and let them pray over him, ^(A)anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord. ¹⁵ And the prayer of faith will save the sick, and the Lord will raise him up. ^(B)And if he has committed sins, he will be forgiven.

²⁶ and said, ^(A)“If you diligently heed the voice of the Lord your God and do what is right in His sight, give ear to His commandments and keep all His statutes, I will put none of the ^(B)diseases on you which I have brought on the Egyptians. For I am the Lord ^(C)who heals you.”

Praise for the Lord’s Mercies
