Luke 5:13-15

New Testament for Everyone

¹³ Jesus stretched out his hand and touched him.

“I do want to,” he said. “Be clean.”

And the skin disease disappeared immediately.

¹⁴ Jesus instructed the man not to tell anyone. “Go and show yourself to the priest,” he said, “and make the offering commanded by Moses in connection with your healing, as evidence for them.”

¹⁵ The news about Jesus, though, spread all round, and large crowds came to hear and to be healed from their diseases.
