Matthew 8
New American Standard Bible
Jesus Cleanses a Man with Leprosy
8 When [a]Jesus came down from the mountain, [b]large crowds followed Him. 2 And (A)a man with [c]leprosy came to Him and [d](B)bowed down before Him, and said, “Lord, if You are willing, You can make me clean.” 3 [e]Jesus reached out with His hand and touched him, saying, “I am willing; be cleansed.” And immediately his (C)leprosy was cleansed. 4 And Jesus *said to him, “(D)See that you tell no one; but (E)go, (F)show yourself to the priest and present the [f]offering that Moses commanded, as a testimony to them.”
The Centurion’s Faith
5 And (G)when [g]Jesus entered Capernaum, a [h]centurion came to Him, begging Him, 6 and saying, “[i]Lord, my [j]servant is lying (H)paralyzed at home, terribly tormented.” 7 Jesus *said to him, “I will come and heal him.” 8 But the centurion replied, “[k]Lord, I am not worthy for You to come under my roof, but just [l]say the word, and my [m]servant will be healed. 9 For I also am a man under (I)authority, with soldiers under me; and I say to this one, ‘Go!’ and he goes, and to another, ‘Come!’ and he comes, and to my slave, ‘Do this!’ and he does it.” 10 Now when Jesus heard this, He was amazed and said to those who were following, “Truly I say to you, I have not found such great faith [n]with anyone in Israel. 11 And I say to you that many (J)will come from east and west, and [o]recline at the table with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob in the kingdom of heaven; 12 but (K)the sons of the kingdom will be thrown out into (L)the outer darkness; in that place (M)there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.” 13 And Jesus said to the centurion, “Go; [p]it shall be done for you (N)as you have believed.” And the [q]servant was healed at that very [r]moment.
Peter’s Mother-in-law and Many Others Healed
14 (O)When Jesus came into Peter’s [s]home, He saw his mother-in-law lying sick in bed with a fever. 15 And He touched her hand, and the fever left her; and she got up and [t]waited on Him. 16 Now when evening came, they brought to Him many (P)who were demon-possessed; and He cast out the spirits with a word, and (Q)healed all who were ill. 17 This happened so that what was spoken through Isaiah the prophet would be fulfilled: “(R)He Himself took our illnesses and [u]carried away our diseases.”
Discipleship Tested
18 Now when Jesus saw a crowd around Him, (S)He gave orders to depart to the other side of the sea. 19 (T)Then a scribe came and said to Him, “Teacher, I will follow You wherever You go.” 20 And Jesus *said to him, “The foxes have holes and the birds of the sky have nests, but (U)the Son of Man has nowhere to lay His head.” 21 And another of the disciples said to Him, “Lord, allow me first to go and bury my father.” 22 But Jesus *said to him, “(V)Follow Me, and let the dead bury their own dead.”
Jesus Calms the Storm
23 (W)When He got into the boat, His disciples followed Him. 24 And behold, a [v]violent storm developed on the sea, so that the boat was being covered by the waves; but Jesus Himself was asleep. 25 And they came to Him and woke Him, saying, “(X)Save us, Lord; we are perishing!” 26 He *said to them, “Why are you [w]afraid, (Y)you men of little faith?” Then He got up and rebuked the winds and the sea, and [x]it became perfectly calm. 27 The men were amazed, and said, “What kind of a man is this, that even the winds and the sea obey Him?”
Jesus Sends Demons into Pigs
28 (Z)And when He came to the other side into the country of the Gadarenes, two (AA)demon-possessed men confronted Him as they were coming out of the tombs. They were so extremely violent that no one could pass by that way. 29 And they cried out, saying, “[y](AB)What business do You have with us, Son of God? Have You come here to torment us before [z]the time?” 30 Now there was a herd of many pigs feeding at a distance from them. 31 And the demons begged Him, saying, “If You are going to cast us out, send us into the herd of pigs.” 32 And He said to them, “Go!” And they came out and went into the pigs; and behold, the whole herd rushed down the steep bank into the sea and [aa]drowned in the waters. 33 And the herdsmen ran away, and went to the city and reported everything, [ab]including what had happened to the (AC)demon-possessed men. 34 And behold, the whole city came out to meet Jesus; and when they saw Him, (AD)they pleaded with Him to leave their region.

Nueva Versión Internacional (Castilian)
Jesús sana a un leproso(A)
8 Cuando Jesús bajó de la montaña, lo siguieron grandes multitudes. 2 Un hombre que tenía lepra se le acercó y se arrodilló delante de él.
―Señor, si quieres, puedes limpiarme —le dijo.
3 Jesús extendió la mano y tocó al hombre.
―Sí quiero —le dijo—. ¡Queda limpio!
Y al instante quedó sano[a] de la lepra.
4 ―Mira, no se lo digas a nadie —le dijo Jesús—; solo ve, preséntate al sacerdote y lleva la ofrenda que ordenó Moisés, para que les sirva de testimonio.
La fe del centurión(B)
5 Al entrar Jesús en Capernaún, se le acercó un centurión pidiendo ayuda.
6 ―Señor, mi siervo está postrado en casa con parálisis y sufre terriblemente.
7 ―Iré a sanarlo —respondió Jesús.
8 ―Señor, no merezco que entres bajo mi techo. Pero basta con que digas una sola palabra, y mi siervo quedará sano. 9 Porque yo mismo soy un hombre sujeto a órdenes superiores, y además tengo soldados bajo mi autoridad. Le digo a uno: “Ve”, y va, y al otro: “Ven”, y viene. Le digo a mi siervo: “Haz esto”, y lo hace.
10 Al oír esto, Jesús se asombró y dijo a quienes lo seguían:
―Os aseguro que no he encontrado en Israel a nadie que tenga tanta fe. 11 Os digo que muchos vendrán del oriente y del occidente, y participarán en el banquete con Abraham, Isaac y Jacob en el reino de los cielos. 12 Pero a los súbditos del reino se les echará afuera, a la oscuridad, donde habrá llanto y rechinar de dientes.
13 Luego Jesús le dijo al centurión:
―¡Ve! Todo se hará tal como creíste.
Y en esa misma hora aquel siervo quedó sano.
Jesús sana a muchos enfermos(C)
14 Cuando Jesús entró en casa de Pedro, vio a la suegra de este en cama, con fiebre. 15 Le tocó la mano y la fiebre se le fue; y ella se levantó y comenzó a servirle.
16 Al atardecer, le llevaron muchos endemoniados, y con una sola palabra expulsó a los espíritus, y sanó a todos los enfermos. 17 Esto sucedió para que se cumpliera lo dicho por el profeta Isaías:
«Él cargó con nuestras enfermedades
y soportó nuestros dolores».[b]
Lo que cuesta seguir a Jesús(D)
18 Cuando Jesús vio a la multitud que lo rodeaba, dio orden de pasar al otro lado del lago. 19 Se le acercó un maestro de la ley y le dijo:
―Maestro, te seguiré a dondequiera que vayas.
20 ―Las zorras tienen madrigueras y las aves tienen nidos —le respondió Jesús—, pero el Hijo del hombre no tiene dónde recostar la cabeza.
21 Otro discípulo le pidió:
―Señor, primero déjame ir a enterrar a mi padre.
22 ―Sígueme —le replicó Jesús—, y deja que los muertos entierren a sus muertos.
Jesús calma la tormenta(E)
23 Luego subió a la barca y sus discípulos lo siguieron. 24 De repente, se levantó en el lago una tormenta tan fuerte que las olas inundaban la barca. Pero Jesús estaba dormido. 25 Los discípulos fueron a despertarlo.
―¡Señor —dijeron—, sálvanos, que nos vamos a ahogar!
26 ―Hombres de poca fe —les contestó—, ¿por qué tenéis tanto miedo?
Entonces se levantó y reprendió a los vientos y a las olas, y todo quedó completamente tranquilo.
27 Los discípulos no salían de su asombro, y decían: «¿Qué clase de hombre es este, que hasta los vientos y las olas le obedecen?»
Liberación de dos endemoniados(F)
28 Cuando Jesús llegó al otro lado, a la región de los gadarenos,[c] dos endemoniados le salieron al encuentro de entre los sepulcros. Eran tan violentos que nadie se atrevía a pasar por aquel camino. 29 De pronto le gritaron:
―¿Por qué te entrometes, Hijo de Dios? ¿Has venido aquí a atormentarnos antes del tiempo señalado?
30 A cierta distancia de ellos estaba paciendo una gran piara de cerdos. 31 Los demonios le rogaron a Jesús:
―Si nos expulsas, mándanos a la piara de cerdos.
32 ―Id —les dijo.
Así que salieron de los hombres y entraron en los cerdos, y toda la piara se precipitó al lago por el despeñadero y murió en el agua. 33 Los que cuidaban los cerdos salieron corriendo al pueblo y dieron aviso de todo, incluso de lo que les había sucedido a los endemoniados. 34 Entonces todos los del pueblo fueron al encuentro de Jesús. Y, cuando lo vieron, le suplicaron que se alejara de esa región.
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.
Matthew 8
New King James Version
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.

Chinese Contemporary Bible (Simplified)
麻风病痊愈
8 耶稣下山的时候,有许多人跟着。 2 有一个患麻风病的人跑来跪在祂跟前,说:“主啊,如果你肯,一定能使我洁净。”
3 耶稣伸手摸他,说:“我肯,你洁净了吧!”那人的麻风病就立刻洁净了。
4 耶稣对他说:“不要把这事告诉别人,要去让祭司察看你的身体,并且照摩西的规定献祭,向众人证明你已经洁净了。”
百夫长的信心
5 耶稣到了迦百农,一个百夫长前来向祂求助,说: 6 “主啊,我的仆人瘫痪,躺在家里,非常痛苦。”
7 耶稣说:“我这就去医治他。”
8 百夫长说:“主啊,我不配让你亲自来我家。你只要说一句话,我仆人就会痊愈。 9 因为我有上司,也有部下。我命令我的部下去,他就去;要他来,他就来。我吩咐仆人做什么事,他一定照办。”
10 耶稣听了,感到惊奇,便对跟随祂的人说:“我实在告诉你们,我在以色列从未见过信心这么大的人。 11 我告诉你们,将来有许多从东从西来的人会在天国与亚伯拉罕、以撒和雅各一同欢宴。 12 但那些本应承受天国的人反会被赶出去,在黑暗里哀哭切齿。”
13 耶稣对百夫长说:“你回去吧!就照你所信的给你成就。”就在那时候,他的仆人便痊愈了。
治病赶鬼
14 耶稣来到彼得家,看见彼得的岳母正在发烧,躺在床上。 15 耶稣一摸她的手,烧就退了。她便起来服侍耶稣。
16 当天晚上,有人带着许多被鬼附身的人来见耶稣。耶稣一句话就把鬼赶出去了,并医好了所有的病人。 17 这是要应验以赛亚先知的话:“祂担当了我们的软弱,背负了我们的疾病。”
跟从耶稣的代价
18 耶稣看到人群围着祂,就吩咐门徒渡到湖对岸。 19 这时,有一位律法教师上前对耶稣说:“老师,无论你往哪里去,我都要跟从你。”
20 耶稣说:“狐狸有洞,飞鸟有窝,人子却没有安枕之处。”
21 另一个门徒对耶稣说:“主啊,请让我先回去安葬我的父亲。” 22 耶稣对他说:“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,门徒也跟着祂上了船。 24 忽然,湖面上狂风大作,波涛汹涌,船快要被巨浪吞没,耶稣却在睡觉。
25 门徒连忙叫醒耶稣,说:“主啊,救命!我们快淹死了!”
26 耶稣答道:“你们的信心太小了,为什么害怕呢?”于是祂起来斥责风和浪,风浪就完全平静了。
27 门徒很惊奇,说:“祂究竟是什么人?连风浪都听祂的!”
治好两个被鬼附身的人
28 耶稣到了对岸加大拉[a]人的地方,有两个被鬼附身的人从坟地里出来见祂。他们非常凶恶,没有人敢从那里经过。 29 他们喊着说:“上帝的儿子啊!我们和你有什么关系?时候还没有到,你就来叫我们受苦吗?”
30 当时,有一大群猪在附近吃食。 31 鬼就哀求耶稣:“如果你要赶我们出去,就让我们进入猪群吧!”
32 耶稣说:“去吧!”
于是,鬼从那二人身上出来,进入猪群,整群猪就一路奔下陡坡,冲进湖里淹死了。 33 放猪的人逃进城,把事情的经过以及被鬼附身者的遭遇告诉了城里的人。 34 于是,全城的人都出来见耶稣,见到后,便请求祂离开那地方。
