Matthew 8:1-4

Easy-to-Read Version

Jesus Heals a Sick Man^(A)

8 Jesus came down from the hill, and a large crowd followed him. ² Then a man sick with leprosy came to him. The man bowed down before Jesus and said, “Lord, you have the power to heal me if you want.”

³ Jesus touched the man. He said, “I want to heal you. Be healed!” Immediately the man was healed from his leprosy. ⁴ Then Jesus said to him, “Don’t tell anyone about what happened. But go and let the priest look at you.^[a] And offer the gift that Moses commanded for people who are made well. This will show everyone that you are healed.”
