Jesús sana a un leproso

(Mr 1:40-45; Lc 5:12-16)

Cuando Jesús bajó de la ladera de la montaña, mucha gente lo seguía. Entonces un leproso se arrodilló delante de él y le dijo:

—Señor, si quieres, puedes quitarme esta enfermedad.

Jesús extendió la mano, lo tocó y dijo:

—Sí quiero. ¡Sana ya!

En ese mismo instante se le quitó la lepra. Entonces Jesús le dijo:

—Mira, no se lo cuentes a nadie. Ve y preséntate ante el sacerdote[a] y da la ofrenda que Moisés ordenó. Esto servirá para que la gente compruebe que has sido sanado.

Jesús sana al siervo de un capitán

(Lc 7:1-10; Jn 4:43-54)

Cuando Jesús entró en Capernaúm, se le acercó un capitán romano para pedirle ayuda. El capitán le dijo:

—Señor, mi siervo está en cama, no se puede mover y tiene un dolor terrible.

Entonces Jesús le dijo:

—Iré a sanarlo.

El capitán le contestó:

—Señor, no merezco que vayas a mi casa, pero tan sólo da la orden y mi siervo quedará sanado. Porque yo estoy bajo la autoridad de mis superiores y a la vez tengo a muchos soldados bajo mi autoridad. Si le digo a un soldado: “Ve”, él va. Si le digo a otro: “Ven”, él viene. Y si le digo a mi siervo: “Haz esto”, él lo hace.

10 Cuando Jesús escuchó esto, se admiró mucho y les dijo a los que lo seguían:

—Les digo la verdad: nunca he visto en Israel a nadie con tanta fe. 11 Además les digo que muchos vendrán del oriente y del occidente y en el reino de Dios participarán en un banquete con Abraham, Isaac y Jacob. 12 Pero los que nacieron para tener el reino serán expulsados. Estarán en la oscuridad, donde llorarán y crujirán los dientes de dolor.

13 Entonces Jesús le dijo al capitán:

—Ve a tu casa, tu siervo sanará así como creíste.

Y en ese mismo instante el siervo fue sanado.

Jesús sana a la suegra de Pedro

(Mr 1:29-31; Lc 4:38-39)

14 Cuando Jesús llegó a la casa de Pedro, vio que la suegra de Pedro estaba en cama y con fiebre. 15 Jesús le tocó la mano y la fiebre la dejó. Entonces ella se levantó y empezó a atenderlos.

Jesús sana a mucha más gente

(Mr 1:32-34; Lc 4:40-41)

16 Al anochecer, la gente le trajo a Jesús muchos atormentados por demonios y él ordenó a los espíritus que salieran. Sanó a todos los que estaban enfermos. 17 (A)Esto sucedió para que se cumpliera lo que dijo el profeta Isaías:

«Él quitó todas nuestras dolencias
    y llevó nuestras enfermedades».[b]

Seguir a Jesús

(Lc 9:57-62)

18 Cuando Jesús vio a la multitud que lo rodeaba, ordenó a sus seguidores que se fueran al otro lado del lago. 19 Un maestro de la ley se acercó a él y le dijo:

—Maestro, te seguiré a dondequiera que vayas.

20 Entonces Jesús le dijo:

—Las zorras tienen sus madrigueras y las aves tienen sus nidos, pero el Hijo del hombre no tiene un lugar donde descansar la cabeza.

21 Otro de sus seguidores le dijo:

—Señor, déjame primero ir a enterrar a mi papá.

22 Pero Jesús le dijo:

—Sígueme, y deja que los muertos entierren a sus muertos.

Jesús calma una tormenta

(Mr 4:35-41; Lc 8:22-25)

23 Jesús subió a la barca y sus seguidores lo acompañaron. 24 Entonces se desató una gran tormenta y las olas estaban cubriendo la barca, pero Jesús estaba durmiendo. 25 Entonces los seguidores se acercaron, lo despertaron y le dijeron:

—¡Señor, sálvanos! ¡Nos estamos ahogando!

26 Él les dijo:

—¿Por qué son tan cobardes, hombres de poca fe?

Jesús se levantó y regaño a los vientos y al mar; y todo quedó en gran calma. 27 Ellos no lo podían creer y decían:

—¿Quién es este hombre que hasta el viento y las olas lo obedecen?

Jesús expulsa unos demonios

(Mr 5:1-20; Lc 8:26-39)

28 Cuando Jesús llegó a la otra orilla del lago, a la región de los gadarenos[c], se le acercaron de entre las tumbas dos hombres poseídos por demonios. Vivían allí y eran muy violentos, por lo que nadie podía pasar por ahí. 29 De pronto ellos gritaron:

—¿Qué quieres de nosotros, Hijo de Dios? ¿Has venido antes de tiempo para castigarnos?

30 A lo lejos había muchos cerdos comiendo. 31 Entonces los demonios le rogaron a Jesús:

—Si vas a expulsarnos de estos hombres, mándanos a entrar en esos cerdos.

32 Entonces Jesús les dijo:

—¡Vayan!

Los demonios salieron de los hombres y entraron en los cerdos. Entonces todos los cerdos se echaron a correr pendiente abajo por el barranco, cayeron en las aguas y se ahogaron. 33 Los encargados de cuidar a los cerdos salieron huyendo. Al llegar al pueblo, contaron todo lo que había pasado e incluso lo que les pasó a los hombres que estaban poseídos. 34 Entonces todo el pueblo salió a ver a Jesús y le pidieron que se fuera de esa región.

Jesus Cleanses a Leper; The Centurion’s Faith

When [a]Jesus came down from the mountain, [b]large crowds followed Him. And (A)a leper came to Him and [c](B)bowed down before Him, and said, “Lord, if You are willing, You can make me clean.” Jesus stretched out His hand and touched him, saying, “I am willing; be cleansed.” And immediately his (C)leprosy was cleansed. And Jesus *said to him, (D)See that you tell no one; but (E)go, (F)show yourself to the priest and present the [d]offering that Moses commanded, as a testimony to them.”

And (G)when [e]Jesus entered Capernaum, a centurion came to Him, imploring Him, and saying, “[f]Lord, my [g]servant is [h]lying (H)paralyzed at home, fearfully tormented.” Jesus *said to him, “I will come and heal him.” But the centurion said, “[i]Lord, I am not worthy for You to come under my roof, but just [j]say the word, and my [k]servant will be healed. 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 marveled and said to those who were following, “Truly I say to you, I have not found such great faith [l]with anyone in Israel. 11 I say to you that many (J)will come from east and west, and [m]recline at the table with Abraham, Isaac and Jacob in the kingdom of heaven; 12 but (K)the sons of the kingdom will be cast 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; [n]it shall be done for you (N)as you have believed.” And the [o]servant was healed that very [p]moment.

Peter’s Mother-in-law and Many Others Healed

14 (O)When Jesus came into Peter’s [q]home, He saw his mother-in-law lying sick in bed with a fever. 15 He touched her hand, and the fever left her; and she got up and [r]waited on Him. 16 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 was to fulfill what was spoken through Isaiah the prophet: “(R)He Himself took our infirmities and [s]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 Jesus *said to him, “The foxes have holes and the birds of the [t]air have [u]nests, but (U)the Son of Man has nowhere to lay His head.” 21 Another of the disciples said to Him, “Lord, permit me first to go and bury my father.” 22 But Jesus *said to him, (V)Follow Me, and allow the dead to bury their own dead.”

23 (W)When He got into the boat, His disciples followed Him. 24 And behold, there arose [v]a great storm on the sea, so that the boat was being covered with 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 Casts Out Demons

28 (Z)When He came to the other side into the country of the Gadarenes, two men who were (AA)demon-possessed met 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 we have with each other, Son of God? Have You come here to torment us before [z]the time?” 30 Now there was a herd of many swine feeding at a distance from them. 31 The demons began to entreat Him, saying, “If You are going to cast us out, send us into the herd of swine.” 32 And He said to them, “Go!” And they came out and went into the swine, and the whole herd rushed down the steep bank into the sea and perished in the waters. 33 The herdsmen ran away, and went to the city and reported everything, [aa]including what had happened to the (AC)demoniacs. 34 And behold, the whole city came out to meet Jesus; and when they saw Him, (AD)they implored Him to leave their region.

Jesus Heals a Man With Leprosy(A)

When Jesus came down from the mountainside, large crowds followed him. A man with leprosy[a](B) came and knelt before him(C) and said, “Lord, if you are willing, you can make me clean.”

Jesus reached out his hand and touched the man. “I am willing,” he said. “Be clean!” Immediately he was cleansed of his leprosy. 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)

When Jesus had entered Capernaum, a centurion came to him, asking for help. “Lord,” he said, “my servant lies at home paralyzed,(H) suffering terribly.”

Jesus said to him, “Shall I come and heal him?”

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) 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:

“He took up our infirmities
    and bore our diseases.”[b](S)

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)
