Matthew 8
Christian Standard Bible
A Man Cleansed
8 When he came down from the mountain, large crowds(A) followed him. 2 Right away(B) a man with leprosy[a] came up and knelt before him,(C) saying, “Lord, if you are willing, you can make me clean.”
3 Reaching out his hand, Jesus touched him, saying, “I am willing; be made clean.” Immediately his leprosy was cleansed. 4 Then Jesus told him, “See that you don’t tell anyone;(D) but go, show yourself to the priest, and offer the gift that Moses commanded, as a testimony to them.”(E)
A Centurion’s Faith
5 When he entered Capernaum,(F) a centurion came to him, pleading with him, 6 “Lord, my servant is lying at home paralyzed, in terrible agony.”
7 He said to him, “Am I to come and heal him?”[b]
8 “Lord,” the centurion replied, “I am not worthy to have you come under my roof. But just say the word, and my servant will be healed.(G) 9 For I too am a man under authority, having soldiers under my command.[c] 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 Hearing this, Jesus was amazed and said to those following him, “Truly I tell you, I have not found anyone in Israel with so great a faith. 11 I tell you that many will come from east and west to share the banquet[d] with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob in the kingdom of heaven.(H) 12 But the sons of the kingdom will be thrown into the outer darkness where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.”(I) 13 Then Jesus told the centurion, “Go. As you have believed,(J) let it be done for you.” And his servant was healed that very moment.[e]
Healings at Capernaum
14 Jesus went into Peter’s house(K) and saw his mother-in-law lying in bed with a fever. 15 So he touched her hand, and the fever left her. Then she got up and began to serve him. 16 When evening came, they brought to him many who were demon-possessed. He drove out the spirits(L) with a word and healed all who were sick,(M) 17 so that what was spoken through the prophet Isaiah might be fulfilled:
The Cost of Following Jesus
18 When Jesus saw a large crowd[g](O) around him, he gave the order to go to the other side of the sea. 19 A scribe approached him and said,(P) “Teacher, I will follow you wherever you go.”
20 Jesus told him, “Foxes have dens, and birds of the sky have nests, but the Son of Man(Q) has no place to lay his head.”
21 “Lord,” another of his disciples said, “first let me go bury my father.”
22 But Jesus told him, “Follow me, and let the dead bury their own dead.”
Wind and Waves Obey Jesus
23 As he got into the boat,(R) his disciples(S) followed him. 24 Suddenly, a violent storm arose on the sea, so that the boat was being swamped by the waves—but Jesus kept sleeping. 25 So the disciples came and woke him up, saying, “Lord, save us! We’re going to die!”
26 He said to them, “Why are you afraid, you of little faith?” Then he got up and rebuked the winds and the sea,(T) and there was a great calm.
27 The men were amazed and asked, “What kind of man is this? Even the winds and the sea obey(U) him!”
Demons Driven Out by Jesus
28 When he had come to the other side,(V) to the region of the Gadarenes,[h] two demon-possessed men met him as they came out of the tombs. They were so violent that no one could pass that way. 29 Suddenly they shouted, “What do you have to do with us,[i] Son of God? Have you come here to torment us before the time?” (W)
30 A long way off from them, a large herd of pigs was feeding. 31 “If you drive us out,” the demons begged him, “send us into the herd of pigs.”
32 “Go!” he told them. So when they had come out, they entered the pigs, and the whole herd rushed down the steep bank into the sea and perished in the water. 33 Then the men who tended them fled. They went into the city and reported everything, especially what had happened to those who were demon-possessed. 34 At that, the whole town went out to meet Jesus. When they saw him, they begged him to leave their region.(X)

洁净麻风病人
8 耶稣从山上下来，有一大群人跟随他。 2 这时候，忽然有一个麻风病人前来拜他，说：“主啊，如果你愿意，你就能洁净我。”
3 耶稣伸出手来摸他，说：“我愿意，你洁净了吧！”那人的麻风病立刻就被洁净了。 4 耶稣对他说：“你要注意，不可告诉任何人，只要去把自己给祭司看，并且献上摩西所吩咐的祭物，好对他们做见证。”
百夫长的信心
5 耶稣进了迦百农，有个百夫长前来恳求他， 6 说：“主啊，我的仆人瘫痪了，躺在家里，受剧烈的折磨。”
7 耶稣对他说：“我去使他痊愈。”
8 百夫长回答说：“主啊，我实在不配请你进我家。其实只要你说一句话，我的仆人就会痊愈的。 9 事实上，我也在人的权下，也有士兵在我之下。我对这个说‘去’，他就去；对那个说‘来’，他就来；对我的奴仆说‘做这事’，他就去做。”
10 耶稣听了，十分感慨，对跟随他的人说：“我确实地告诉你们：在以色列我没有见过有这么大信心[a]的人。 11 我告诉你们：将有许多人从东从西而来，在天国里与亚伯拉罕、以撒、雅各一同坐席。 12 但那些‘天国的儿女’，却将被丢在外面的黑暗里。在那里将有哀哭和切齿。” 13 于是耶稣对那百夫长说：“回去吧，照着你所信的，给你成全吧！”他的仆人就在那一刻痊愈了。
在迦百农治病
14 耶稣来到彼得家，看见彼得的岳母正发烧躺着。 15 耶稣一摸她的手，烧就退了。于是她就起来服事耶稣。 16 到了傍晚，人们把许多有鬼魔附身的人带到耶稣那里。耶稣话语一出就把那些邪灵都赶了出去，并且使所有患病的人痊愈了。 17 这样，那藉着先知以赛亚所说的话就应验了：
“他亲自代替了我们的软弱，
担当了我们的疾病。”[b]
跟随耶稣
18 耶稣看见一群人[c]围着他，就吩咐渡到对岸去。 19 有一个经文士前来对他说：“老师，无论你到哪里去，我都要跟从你。”
20 耶稣对他说：“狐狸有洞，天空的飞鸟有窝，人子却没有枕头的地方。”
21 耶稣的另一个门徒对他说：“主啊，请准许我先去埋葬我的父亲。”
22 但是耶稣对他说：“你跟从我，让死人去埋葬他们的死人吧。”
平静风浪
23 耶稣上了船，他的门徒们跟着他。 24 这时候，忽然湖[d]上起了大风暴，以致波浪盖过了船，耶稣却睡着了。 25 门徒们上前来叫醒他，说：“主啊，救救我们，我们没命了！”
26 耶稣对他们说：“为什么胆怯呢？你们这些小信的人哪！”耶稣就起来，斥责风和浪[e]，湖面就变得一片平静。
27 他们都感到惊奇，说：“这个人究竟是什么人？连风和浪[f]也听从他！”
在格拉森驱赶鬼魔
28 耶稣来到对岸格达拉[g]人的地方，两个有鬼魔附身的人，从墓地迎着他出来。他们非常凶猛，以致没有人能从那条路经过。 29 忽然，他们喊叫说：“神的儿子[h]啊，我们与你有什么关系？时候来到之前，你就来这里折磨我们吗？”
30 当时，离他们很远的地方，有一大群猪正在吃食。 31 那些鬼魔就央求耶稣，说：“如果你要把我们赶出去，就叫我们进入这群猪里面去吧。”
32 耶稣对它们说：“去吧！”它们就出来，进入猪[i]里面去了。忽然，那整群猪[j]从山崖冲到湖里，在水里淹死[k]了。 33 那些放猪的人就逃跑，进城去传报了这一切事，包括鬼魔附身之人的事。 34 看哪，全城的人都出来看耶稣，见了耶稣以后，就央求他离开他们的地区。
Matthew 8
King James Version
8 When he was come down from the mountain, great multitudes followed him.
2 And, behold, there came a leper and worshipped him, saying, Lord, if thou wilt, thou canst make me clean.
3 And Jesus put forth his hand, and touched him, saying, I will; be thou clean. And immediately his leprosy was cleansed.
4 And Jesus saith unto him, See thou tell no man; but go thy way, shew thyself to the priest, and offer the gift that Moses commanded, for a testimony unto them.
5 And when Jesus was entered into Capernaum, there came unto him a centurion, beseeching him,
6 And saying, Lord, my servant lieth at home sick of the palsy, grievously tormented.
7 And Jesus saith unto him, I will come and heal him.
8 The centurion answered and said, Lord, I am not worthy that thou shouldest come under my roof: but speak the word only, and my servant shall be healed.
9 For I am a man under authority, having soldiers under me: and I say to this man, Go, and he goeth; and to another, Come, and he cometh; and to my servant, Do this, and he doeth it.
10 When Jesus heard it, he marvelled, and said to them that followed, Verily I say unto you, I have not found so great faith, no, not in Israel.
11 And I say unto you, That many shall come from the east and west, and shall sit down with Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, in the kingdom of heaven.
12 But the children of the kingdom shall be cast out into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
13 And Jesus said unto the centurion, Go thy way; and as thou hast believed, so be it done unto thee. And his servant was healed in the selfsame hour.
14 And when Jesus was come into Peter's house, he saw his wife's mother laid, and sick of a fever.
15 And he touched her hand, and the fever left her: and she arose, and ministered unto them.
16 When the even was come, they brought unto him many that were possessed with devils: and he cast out the spirits with his word, and healed all that were sick:
17 That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the prophet, saying, Himself took our infirmities, and bare our sicknesses.
18 Now when Jesus saw great multitudes about him, he gave commandment to depart unto the other side.
19 And a certain scribe came, and said unto him, Master, I will follow thee whithersoever thou goest.
20 And Jesus saith unto him, The foxes have holes, and the birds of the air have nests; but the Son of man hath not where to lay his head.
21 And another of his disciples said unto him, Lord, suffer me first to go and bury my father.
22 But Jesus said unto him, Follow me; and let the dead bury their dead.
23 And when he was entered into a ship, his disciples followed him.
24 And, behold, there arose a great tempest in the sea, insomuch that the ship was covered with the waves: but he was asleep.
25 And his disciples came to him, and awoke him, saying, Lord, save us: we perish.
26 And he saith unto them, Why are ye fearful, O ye of little faith? Then he arose, and rebuked the winds and the sea; and there was a great calm.
27 But the men marvelled, saying, What manner of man is this, that even the winds and the sea obey him!
28 And when he was come to the other side into the country of the Gergesenes, there met him two possessed with devils, coming out of the tombs, exceeding fierce, so that no man might pass by that way.
29 And, behold, they cried out, saying, What have we to do with thee, Jesus, thou Son of God? art thou come hither to torment us before the time?
30 And there was a good way off from them an herd of many swine feeding.
31 So the devils besought him, saying, If thou cast us out, suffer us to go away into the herd of swine.
32 And he said unto them, Go. And when they were come out, they went into the herd of swine: and, behold, the whole herd of swine ran violently down a steep place into the sea, and perished in the waters.
33 And they that kept them fled, and went their ways into the city, and told every thing, and what was befallen to the possessed of the devils.
34 And, behold, the whole city came out to meet Jesus: and when they saw him, they besought him that he would depart out of their coasts.
