Mateo 8
Reina Valera Actualizada
Jesús sana a un leproso
8 Cuando descendió del monte, lo siguió mucha gente. 2 Y he aquí vino un leproso y se postró ante él diciendo:
—¡Señor, si quieres, puedes limpiarme!
3 Jesús extendió la mano y lo tocó diciendo:
—Quiero. ¡Sé limpio!
Y al instante quedó limpio de la lepra. 4 Entonces Jesús le dijo:
—Mira, no lo digas a nadie; pero ve, muéstrate al sacerdote y ofrece la ofrenda que mandó Moisés, para testimonio a ellos.
Jesús sana al criado del centurión
5 Cuando Jesús entró en Capernaúm, vino a él un centurión y le rogó 6 diciendo:
—Señor, mi criado está postrado en casa, paralítico, y sufre terribles dolores.
7 Y le dijo:
—Yo iré y lo sanaré.
8 Respondió el centurión y dijo:
—Señor, yo no soy digno de que entres bajo mi techo. Solamente di la palabra y mi criado será sanado. 9 Porque yo también soy un hombre bajo autoridad y tengo soldados bajo mi mando. Si digo a este: “Ve”, él va; si digo al otro: “Ven”, él viene; y si digo a mi siervo: “Haz esto”, él lo hace.
10 Cuando Jesús oyó esto, se maravilló y dijo a los que lo seguían:
—De cierto les digo que no he hallado tanta fe en ninguno en Israel. 11 Y les digo que muchos vendrán del oriente y del occidente y se sentarán con Abraham, Isaac y Jacob en el reino de los cielos, 12 pero los hijos del reino serán echados a las tinieblas de afuera. Allí habrá llanto y crujir de dientes.
13 Entonces Jesús le dijo al centurión:
—Ve, y como creíste te sea hecho.
Y su criado fue sanado en aquella hora.
Jesús sana a la suegra de Pedro
14 Entró Jesús en la casa de Pedro, y vio que la suegra de este estaba postrada en cama con fiebre. 15 Él le tocó la mano, y la fiebre la dejó. Luego ella se levantó y comenzó a servirle.
16 Al atardecer, trajeron a él muchos endemoniados. Con su palabra echó fuera a los espíritus y sanó a todos los enfermos, 17 de modo que se cumpliera lo dicho por medio del profeta Isaías, quien dijo:
Él mismo tomó nuestras debilidades
y cargó con nuestras enfermedades[a].
Lo que cuesta seguir a Jesús
18 Cuando se vio rodeado de una multitud, Jesús mandó que pasaran a la otra orilla. 19 Entonces se le acercó un escriba y le dijo:
—Maestro, te seguiré a dondequiera que vayas.
20 Jesús le dijo:
—Las zorras tienen cuevas, y las aves del cielo tienen nidos, pero el Hijo del Hombre no tiene dónde recostar la cabeza.
21 Otro de sus discípulos le dijo:
—Señor, permíteme que primero vaya y entierre a mi padre.
22 Pero Jesús le dijo:
—Sígueme y deja que los muertos entierren a sus muertos.
Jesús calma la tempestad
23 Él entró en la barca, y sus discípulos lo siguieron. 24 Y de repente se levantó una tempestad tan grande en el mar que las olas cubrían la barca, pero él dormía. 25 Y acercándose, lo despertaron diciendo:
—¡Señor, sálvanos, que perecemos!
26 Y él les dijo:
—¿Por qué tienen miedo, hombres de poca fe?
Entonces se levantó y reprendió a los vientos y al mar, y se hizo grande bonanza. 27 Los hombres se maravillaron y decían:
—¿Qué clase de hombre es este, que hasta los vientos y el mar le obedecen?
Jesús sana a dos endemoniados
28 Una vez llegado a la otra orilla, a la región de los gadarenos[b], le vinieron al encuentro dos endemoniados que habían salido de los sepulcros. Eran violentos en extremo, tanto que nadie podía pasar por aquel camino. 29 Y he aquí, ellos lanzaron gritos diciendo:
—¿Qué tienes con nosotros, Hijo de Dios[c]? ¿Has venido acá para atormentarnos antes de tiempo?
30 Lejos de ellos estaba paciendo un gran hato de cerdos, 31 y los demonios le rogaron diciendo:
—Si nos echas fuera, envíanos a aquel hato de cerdos.
32 Él les dijo:
—¡Vayan!
Ellos salieron y se fueron a los cerdos, y he aquí todo el hato de cerdos se lanzó al mar por un despeñadero y murieron en el agua.
33 Los que apacentaban los cerdos huyeron, se fueron a la ciudad y lo contaron todo, aun lo que había pasado a los endemoniados. 34 Y he aquí, toda la ciudad salió al encuentro de Jesús y, cuando lo vieron, le rogaban que se fuera de sus territorios.

New International Version
Jesus Heals a Man With Leprosy(A)
8 When Jesus came down from the mountainside, large crowds followed him. 2 A man with leprosy[a](B) came and knelt before him(C) and said, “Lord, if you are willing, you can make me clean.”
3 Jesus reached out his hand and touched the man. “I am willing,” he said. “Be clean!” Immediately he was cleansed of his leprosy. 4 Then Jesus said to him, “See that you don’t tell anyone.(D) But go, show yourself to the priest(E) and offer the gift Moses commanded,(F) as a testimony to them.”
The Faith of the Centurion(G)
5 When Jesus had entered Capernaum, a centurion came to him, asking for help. 6 “Lord,” he said, “my servant lies at home paralyzed,(H) suffering terribly.”
7 Jesus said to him, “Shall I come and heal him?”
8 The centurion replied, “Lord, I do not deserve to have you come under my roof. But just say the word, and my servant will be healed.(I) 9 For I myself am a man under authority, with soldiers under me. I tell this one, ‘Go,’ and he goes; and that one, ‘Come,’ and he comes. I say to my servant, ‘Do this,’ and he does it.”
10 When Jesus heard this, he was amazed and said to those following him, “Truly I tell you, I have not found anyone in Israel with such great faith.(J) 11 I say to you that many will come from the east and the west,(K) and will take their places at the feast with Abraham, Isaac and Jacob in the kingdom of heaven.(L) 12 But the subjects of the kingdom(M) will be thrown outside, into the darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.”(N)
13 Then Jesus said to the centurion, “Go! Let it be done just as you believed it would.”(O) And his servant was healed at that moment.
Jesus Heals Many(P)
14 When Jesus came into Peter’s house, he saw Peter’s mother-in-law lying in bed with a fever. 15 He touched her hand and the fever left her, and she got up and began to wait on him.
16 When evening came, many who were demon-possessed were brought to him, and he drove out the spirits with a word and healed all the sick.(Q) 17 This was to fulfill(R) what was spoken through the prophet Isaiah:
The Cost of Following Jesus(T)
18 When Jesus saw the crowd around him, he gave orders to cross to the other side of the lake.(U) 19 Then a teacher of the law came to him and said, “Teacher, I will follow you wherever you go.”
20 Jesus replied, “Foxes have dens and birds have nests, but the Son of Man(V) has no place to lay his head.”
21 Another disciple said to him, “Lord, first let me go and bury my father.”
22 But Jesus told him, “Follow me,(W) and let the dead bury their own dead.”
Jesus Calms the Storm(X)(Y)
23 Then he got into the boat and his disciples followed him. 24 Suddenly a furious storm came up on the lake, so that the waves swept over the boat. But Jesus was sleeping. 25 The disciples went and woke him, saying, “Lord, save us! We’re going to drown!”
26 He replied, “You of little faith,(Z) why are you so afraid?” Then he got up and rebuked the winds and the waves, and it was completely calm.(AA)
27 The men were amazed and asked, “What kind of man is this? Even the winds and the waves obey him!”
Jesus Restores Two Demon-Possessed Men(AB)
28 When he arrived at the other side in the region of the Gadarenes,[c] two demon-possessed(AC) men coming from the tombs met him. They were so violent that no one could pass that way. 29 “What do you want with us,(AD) Son of God?” they shouted. “Have you come here to torture us before the appointed time?”(AE)
30 Some distance from them a large herd of pigs was feeding. 31 The demons begged Jesus, “If you drive us out, send us into the herd of pigs.”
32 He said to them, “Go!” So they came out and went into the pigs, and the whole herd rushed down the steep bank into the lake and died in the water. 33 Those tending the pigs ran off, went into the town and reported all this, including what had happened to the demon-possessed men. 34 Then the whole town went out to meet Jesus. And when they saw him, they pleaded with him to leave their region.(AF)

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.
