Mark 1:40-45
Christian Standard Bible
40 Then(A) a man with leprosy[a](B) came to him and, on his knees,[b](C) begged him, “If you are willing, you can make me clean.”(D) 41 Moved with compassion,[c](E) Jesus reached out his hand and touched(F) him. “I am willing,” he told him. “Be made clean.” 42 Immediately the leprosy(G) left him, and he was made clean. 43 Then he sternly warned(H) him and sent him away(I) at once, 44 telling him, “See that you say nothing to anyone;(J) but go and show(K) yourself to the priest,(L) and offer(M) what Moses commanded for your cleansing,(N) as a testimony(O) to them.”[d] 45 Yet he went out and began to proclaim(P) it widely and to spread the news,(Q) with the result that Jesus could no longer enter a town openly. But he was out in deserted places, and they came to him from everywhere.
